Roo Mansala, or “alluring abode” in English, is located in Sigiriya, the heart of Sri Lanka’s cultural triangle. With mesmerising views of the Sigiriya Rock Fortress (dubbed the eighth wonder of the world) and the Pidurangala Rock, Roo Mansala offers peaceful seclusion of the lush, fertile plains where ancient kings dwelt, duelled, and sought refuge. The unique architecture of the hotel, reminiscent of the ancient architecture of the Rock Fortress, blends the marvels of Sigiriya, with modern boutique living. Roo Mansala is a refuge for all seasonal travellers offering a unique, personalised, hospitality experience in an eco-friendly setting
