We stayed for 1 night and the staff were so incredibly welcoming! The staff went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. We were craving Sri Lankan food and they made us an entire spread for just 2 people for the complementary breakfast in the morning. The property itself is really beautiful - very in nature and the sounds the birds/ jungle when you wake up/ when you swim is really peaceful. We also saw them feeding the squirrels and taking care of the little stray animals which was really nice. A place with real passion for taking care of nature. Overall, really happy with the experience.

We had such a wonderful stay here. The staff are so lovely and helpful will everything you could need. The rooms are well equipped and comfortable, good aircon and spacious size. The pool area is beautiful and very well maintained. The food was delicious and very well priced. The owner will organise anything you want to do - we did a safari which was amazing and well organised, picked up and dropped back off at the hotel and all tickets etc was sorted for us. The hotel organised amazing tours of Mihintale and the ancient temples with tuk tuk guide named Jaya - make sure to request Jaya as your tour guide! He was very kind and knowledgeable and we had the best time with him touring the beautiful temples.

Don’t hesitate to come to this place, it’s absolutely worth it! Sidhangana Home Stay was one of the best stays we've had during our trip around Sri Lanka. The room was super clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was delicious. What really made the difference were the hosts. Mahinda and Preba were so kind and thoughtful, always checking in on us and doing little things to help that they didn’t have to do. We really appreciated everything and would definitely stay here again!!!

Janaka is THE host—truly exceptional in the hospitality scene in Sri Lanka. He is incredibly kind and welcoming, making us feel completely at home, while also being highly professional and attentive to all our needs. He went out of his way to help us plan our days in Mihintale exactly as we wished—and what he managed to organize for us was no small feat! He was also genuinely concerned for our safety throughout our stay: while Sri Lanka is a very safe country, his attentiveness was still much appreciated. The food cooked by his wife was amazing—made with quality ingredients, prepared beautifully, and full of bold, authentic flavor. Easily one of the top three meals we had in Sri Lanka. If you're planning a trip to Anuradhapura or Mihintale to explore the sacred Buddhist sites, and you're looking for something authentic and off the tourist trail, stay in Mihintale. It's rich with temples and spiritual atmosphere. Stay at Janaka’s place, ask him for advice, and you won’t be disappointed.

    The host is a most warmhearted and welcoming person. He also has helpful tips for excursions to nearby sights or places to eat out. The most important historic places are within walking distance. I got a delicious breakfast at a fair price. Despite the affordable rate this place is at the same level as much more expensive ones. There are non AC and AC rooms available.

    The location was brilliant for seeing all the sights of Mihantale & Caprillo our host was so helpful in advising us too, he is the best host. The place was lovely & comfortable & we were cooked the most exceptionally delicious curry dinners in the evenings, we absolutely loved the food! Breakfast was also wonderful. Mihantale itself is beautiful & interesting to explore too & we would recommend definitely staying here to see it. The best guest house we've stayed in throughout our holiday!

    We had a great stay here. Extremely friendly and helpful staff - they even helped us out with tuktuk problems. Breakfast was great - we are travelling on a budget but was great value for the money and good combination of western and Sri Lankan breakfast. The rooms were clean and spacious and we enjoyed the pool a lot. All together, highly recommended!
