Probably the best hotel we've been in Sri Lanka out of five hotels. They paid attention to all small details. The room and bathroom was clean, the staff attentive, the breakfast complete and tasty, the views are also quite nice, and honestly the building is super beautiful and modern. They also had everything possible in the minibar and the views from the balcony in the room were amazing. And the beds were super good and comfortable. Honestly a wonderful hotel!

Large spotlessly clean rooms located in a quiet area with mounting views rooftop pool. All for an affordable price. But what really stood out was the exceptional staff. They made us feel welcome in that serene and genuine Sri Lanka way. Charuka patiently help get us settled in with all we needed when we were all flustered at reception and demanding of pillows and all kinds of things. Mahesh told us about Sri Lankan Buddhist wisdom as he walked us to the laundry and Spa. Sathsara regaled us with photos of him of the elephant at the Buddhist procession. he also gave us great recommendations for sites to see with enthusiasm.

The property is clean, with a great pool and amazing food. A previous review suggested 12/10 and they were absolutely right. Beyond that, Inoka and family go out of their way to make you feel part of the family. We’ve visited many places but the genuine kindness and desire to make your stay memorable here ranks among the very best.

Kandy, often called the cultural capital of Sri Lanka, is a city that blends history, nature, spirituality, and urban life in a uniquely charming way. Located in the central hill country, it remains one of the most visited cities in the island. Kandy has a calm, scenic, and slightly old-world charm. It is less hectic than Colombo but more active than smaller hill towns, offering a perfect balance for travelers who want culture, greenery, and city convenience in one place. The Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic (Sri Dalada Maligawa) is the city’s most iconic attraction and sacred to Buddhists worldwide. The city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its deep cultural heritage and preserved traditions. Kandy is rich in tradition, music, dance, and ancient rituals, making it a paradise for cultural enthusiasts.

Kandy is a beautiful town with so much to see and do.

Kandy is a beautiful town with so much to see and do. It’s the perfect central base for exploring nearby highlights like Nuwara Eliya and other major sightseeing spots. The famous Kandy–Ella train ride is a wonderful experience with stunning views. Kandy Lake is lovely for an evening walk, and the local markets — especially the Sunday market — are absolutely worth visiting. The Dalada Maligawa (Temple of the Tooth) is a must-see; try to go in the evening when it’s cooler and the atmosphere is even more peaceful. Overall, Kandy is a charming town that offers culture, scenery, and convenience all in one.

Our trip around Kandy was truly memorable!

Our trip around Kandy was truly memorable! We loved visiting the Temple of the Tooth, strolling around the peaceful lake, and exploring the vibrant local markets. The botanical gardens were stunning, and everything was easy to reach from the train station. Great food, kind people, and beautiful scenery all around.

People advised us to have 2 days in Kandy - we would have been fine with just one. The weather did not help us it rained on and off the entire time we were there. Temple of the Sacred Tooth - tick - walk around the Botanical gardens - tick - Shopping DISMAL - Kandyan dance performance extremely touristy. I wish we had allocated an extra day for the hill country instead of Kandy, Best meal we had was at the Hideaway Lounge. Central market - awful fresh food and spices but seriously hideous tourist souvenirs. Old building needs renovation.

Kandy is an interesting historic city, with a number of must see sights - the Temple of The tooth, a walk around the lake, the Big Buddha. Peradeniya Botanical Gardens are just on the edge of the city. The market is bustling. If you are there in late July/early August you may catch the Perahera Festival - a parade of dressed elephants, fire whirlers, Kandy Dancers, Drummers and whip crackers.

The city centre is very polluted but there is a lot to see and it is worth exploring. I highly recommend taking a tuk tuk tour to visit the sights. We had an adventurous day out with Explore Kandy with Sajith Tuk Tuk Tours.

They helped me with everything I needed and shuttled me personally to the places I wanted to go, provided me with informations for my stay in Kandy and Sri Lanka. The rooms are big, clean and comfortable.I had nice and interesting conversations and everybody was so gentle and warm.

I loved the stay at Fortuna, The Bedroom and the Bathroom were clean and tidy! The Free Breakfast was filling, tried their Sri Lankan Dinner, which was super delicious, compared to the restaurants in town, and they had coffee that we could make on our own. Great staff! Always with a smile on their faces. Located around the Kandy Lake with a few minutes walk to the city and all dining and exploring areas. We will be back again!
