Amazing Race 6 Hotel Report: Hotel Sigiriya Sri Lanka

Where: Sigiriya, Sri Lanka

This weeks Amazing Race episode took place in tsunami ravaged Sri Lanka, though the episode was obviously filmed well before last months devastation the scenery still left you with an eerie feeling.

At the end of the episode the contestants were asked to race up the steep stairs of Lion's Rock, grab a set of binoculars, and spot the pit stop. Next, racers rushed to the pit stop on foot, jumped in, and swam the length of a swimming pool, and checked in with Phil. We are 99.9% sure that this weeks pit stop was the Hotel Sigiriya in Sri Lanka. Hotel Sigiriya is an ecotourism resort surrounded by beautiful gardens, and of course, the looming glare of Lion's Rock.

The hotel will arrange elephant safari's for you as well, though we aren't sure elephant polo will be an option.

If you check in to Hotel Sigirya you will get an air conditioned room, for somewhere between $44 and $100.

Note: We were unable to determine whether or not Hotel Sigiriya was damanged by the December 26, 2004 tsunami, if anyone knows, leave a comment on this story.
