    Stayed here for one night before taking the train to Ella the next morning. Well positioned in close proximity to the station but set back from the main road. Room was clean and had everything you’d need. They kindly upgraded me free of charge too. The owners were very friendly and hospitable. I was welcomed with a mocktail on arrival and given a delicious spread of Sri Lankan food for breakfast (including fresh fruit, egg hopper, and a tray of traditional sweets). Would 100% recommend.

    Spotless hotel in walking distance from many Kandy attractions such as market, temple of tooth relic, central city market, shopping mall, lake, train & bus stations... Rooms are clean, showers are excellent with the strong water pressure, hot water option is available instantly & bathroom has a modern design. Rooms have nice, big beds with comfy matrices. The owner & his lady is extremely accommodating & helpful. He solved all our tourists needs. Recommend!

    Most helpful owner you can find. We weren't even guests of his hotel but nonetheless he helped us with getting last minute train tickets to Ella and didn't do that for tips or anything like that. Hotel looked nice also. Go there.

    Very kind staff! They gave plenty of time for conversations and a lot of information on how to plan our stay / rest of our journey in Sri Lanka! We did not face such a service in any other stay. Worth to mention was the breakfast at this stay. The host explained every single stuff on the buffet desk (even how to eat it)

    Great hotel in Kandy. Comfortable, convenient location, and the owners were extremely accommodating, providing late check in and any tips we needed. They’re also a pair of funny jokers, they made us laugh a lot!

  • 5/5 Priya B. 1 year ago on Google
    It was such a nice hotel, spacious rooms, centrally located(train station& bus stand), breakfast options. They helped us get the train tickets and taxi too. I had really good stay. Thank you for making our trip worthwhile.

  • 4/5 mayu a. 10 months ago on Google
    This is a good location in kandy. We can access the kandy bus stand 2km, The temple of the tooth is 3km, Kandy city centre is 2km, kandy main temple Is in 1km and Odell mall is 1km. The rooms are highly recommended. Value for the money. We can get foods here. When you are in Kandy you can try this hotel without any fear.

  • 5/5 Jelle M. 1 year ago on Google
    The best! Friendly and super helpful hosts who mad Ru’s feel at home immediately. The hotel is perfect for a lovely 5km running loop around Lake Kandy and close to the train. Breakfast was one of the best! The French toast rocks!

  • 4/5 Mikhail F. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is worth the money! Convenient location and caring staff are the main advantages of this hotel! Quiet place in the city center, you will not be disturbed by the noise of cars and big companies. The manager prepared an early breakfast for us on the day of departure and arranged for a transfer, which was a very pleasant surprise, for which we are extremely grateful! The rooms are already in need of minor repairs, but in general they leave quite a pleasant impression. What I strongly do not recommend doing in this hotel is to do laundry! I was returned extremely wrinkled items that had been washed in hot water and lost a size or two.

    A very nice place to spend a night or two. The host is an excellent guy, who helped us to find a good and fair taxi driver. The hotel itself is pretty nice, everything was clean, worked well. Ah! The welcome tea was also nice) such a small detail but so touching!

  • 5/5 Wesley 1 year ago on Google
    The whole hotel was spotless clean including the large rooms. The breakfast was a large selection of local/traditional and continental dishes. The staff were kind, friendly and very helpful. They helped us to arrange transport to/from the hotel as well as a day trip to sigiriya. I can't recommend this hotel enough.

    I can't say enough good things about this place. You get a warm welcome and great help along the way with your requests. For the price this is the cleanest hotel I have stayed at in Sri Lanka. There are small touches that this hotel gives that are essential to it's success. I would come back any time.

    Nice staff and location. Unfortunately ants everywhere in the room and luggage, they changed our room (no other compensation) and again ants in the new room.

  • 5/5 Hitesh Ramesh L. 5 years ago on Google
    Very good hotel and even better service! The owner (Nalaka) treated us exceptionally well - he even took us to the train station to buy the tickets for our trip to Ella. The hotel is very new as it opened only 2 years ago. Prominent location at a walking distance from the city centre. Excellent buffet for breakfast with a wide variety of local food. The room was also fantastic with A/C, very comfortable bed, great shower, etc. 10/10 both on installations and service. We would definitely repeat if we ever came back to Kandy! Thanks!

    The staff was very cooperative and helpful. Breakfast was soo great. So clean rooms

  • 4/5 Shawnda K. 5 years ago on Google
    If you’re in Kandy for only one night, you can’t beat the location. It’s a quick 10 minute walk to the train station. Upon arrival the owner greeted us with fresh iced tea. Our room wasn’t quite ready, so they held our bags until we returned from a walk. The owner and his wife were very sweet and helpful. They had tickets available for the cultural dance show and ensured we got great seats. They also reserved train tickets for us in advance which was HUGELY helpful! The room was very clean, the shower was awesome (great water pressure and got very hot). The free breakfast was really nice. You can tell they care deeply for the business they are running.
