If I could give 10 stars I would!! Such a lovely, tranquil place. The staff are some of the loveliest people we met in Sri Lanka. Dennis was incredibly helpful, the room was spotless and the breakfast the best we had on our trip. I would highly recommend this hotel

A fantastic family run Guest House ideally situated for the Rock Fortress, Elephant Safari and Ancient Cities of Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa. All the family made us feel at home. Dinesh who runs the place arranged all our trips for us. Rooms are clean and comfortable and set in a tropical jungle like garden. Meals were lovely and plenty of variety. We highly recommend this Guest House and would love to go back one day.

We had a wonderful 2 night stay at Otunna Guesthouse. We came in later then anticipated, and Dinesh, the owner, was in constant contact with us. They offered fresh passionfruit juice on arrival, and made the most delicious breakfast every morning that was probably the best spread all trip. Even though we already had many activities already planned, he offered any help as needed. What I really love about it is the serenity. It is close enough to restaurants, but far away enough from the main drag to be super quiet. The kids LOVED the loft. We will definitely be back in the future

You will be staying in a room that when you step outside you'll feel like you are in the middle of the jungle! The room we stayed in felt very new and clean, the AC worked great and host helped you with any questions you might have. He got us a driver for a elephant safari and both the safari and the driver were excellent. The breakfast is delicious 😋

Service was 6/5 stars

We had a very pleasant three night stay at the Otunna Guest House! Dinesh was the greatest host ever, taking care of us, helping us plan the to-do's around the area and arranging transportations and all. His mother cooked us wonderful meals for breakfast and dinner, and his father taking care of the surroundings. Thank you! Highly recommend this place when staying in Sigiriya area.

This was the best home stay we have ever experienced! Danesh and his family were so welcoming and helpful and it was lovely to get to know them over our 5 day stay. Danesh organised various activities for us including seeing wild elephants, a cooking class, and a bike ride. He also helped with booking tuk tuks and taxis whenever we needed. Our room was clean with air conditioning and hot water. The breakfasts were abundant and delicious. The communal area was beautiful and full of nature. Danesh was a genuine and truly inspiring person to meet, he cares so much about his community and advocates for protection of wildlife and sustainable tourism. He and his family are the loveliest people, we couldn’t recommend Otunna guest house more.

Not usually a review scribe but sometimes you just feel compelled to. 5 stars does not do justice to Dinesh and family. Immaculately clean, helpful to a fault, nothing is too difficult to organize on your behalf and OMG the breakfast is more fit for a king than us minions. Look no further if you want a hassle free stay with some (no exaggeration) of the nicest people on this world of ours.

The staff were amazing and went above and beyond. They offered tips and always wanted to help to give us the best stay. The breakfast was incredible, there was a huge variety include rotors, fruit, pancakes, hoppers smoothies and curried dishes. The rooms were lovely with a ‘jungle feel’ with the well planted garden that the verandas looked over, complete with swings and regular seating for relaxing. This is 100% on the return list-i can’t recommend it highly enough.

Great room close to Sigiriya Rock

This is a very nice place close to Sigiriya rock. The owner, Dinesh, went out of his way to make sure everything was great. We had dinner there which was a delicious assortment of home made curry. The breakfast was also fresh and delicious. We stayed in the room with A/C which was nice after coming back hot from a long climb. The room was perfectly clean and comfortable.

시기리야 최고의 숙소

단언컨데 해외에서 숙박했던 경험 중 최고였습니다 주인분이 엄청 친절하시고 어디가냐고 물어보고 툭툭도 다 섭외해주셨습니다 (합리적인 가격으로) 방은 깨끗하고 에어컨은 성능이 좋았으며 뜨거운 물도 잘 나왔어요 조식은 커피부터 과일에 커리와 계란 후라이, 무슨 라이스페이퍼 말이, 과일주스까지 다 못먹을 정도로 많이 주셨어요 숙소가 정글 같아서 다른 세상에 있는 느낌이 들어요 다음에 가면 숙소에서만 2~3일은 더 있고 싶네요
