The breakfast and dinner options were lovely! The view is amazing and all the facilities are small experiences in themselves. The trips they do are wonderful and very educational, and our guide was extremely knowledgeable. Being in the middle of a jungle is amazing and you really feel engrossed in the nature! Perfect for a relaxing getaway.
United KingdomWonderful hotel like heaven , I will come here again definitely!
TaiwanHeritance Kandalama is a pearl of wonderlust. Everything from the room surrounded by tree brunches, to the walk to breakfast, to the elegance and coziness of the decor, the view and the swimming pool, is a piece of heaven I would like to come back to, over and over again.

One of our top picks in Sigiriya
Heritance Kandalama is an architectural masterpiece by Geoffrey Bawa , built overlooking the eighth wonder of the world – the rock fortress of Sigiriya. The hotel sits at the heart of the cultural triangle of Sri Lanka, close to five UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The unpaved road through the jungle gives no clue to what to expect – there are no views of the hotel on the horizon. Then suddenly, as you drive up a ramp, a cave-like entrance appears. And even as you step into another world of minimalist white pillars and cool curving corridors, enormous boulders intrude and birdsong hangs in the air. Our stylish bedrooms and suites offer wonderful views over Kandalama lake. As well as the delicious buffets and theme nights in our main restaurant, we offer fine dining in our Fusion Dinning Room and some more exotic, unusual options.
