Mgn, France

Hot water in the shower, nice pool to cool down. Great view of Kandy, amazing dinner and friendly staff. A good budget option.

Marlene, United Kingdom

The owner was very nice and helpful. Hotel has great views and is within walking distance to town. Food at the hotel is lovely, try the banana pancakes for breakfast they are delicious. Staff are excellent.

Claire, United Arab Emirates

We had a great room above the restaurant. They changed a bed for us so we could sleep there with our 2 kids. Great view! Good resaurant.

Martine, Netherlands

Beautiful view, nice staff, good breakfast and diner!

Joan, Netherlands

The worker was so nice and we had a really good breakfast there !!

Chuwen, China

Staff from the hotel were very nice and allowed me to stay in a single room for myself although I had booked a shared dorm. I could also check out later than normal. The views from the rooftop.

Adela, Spain

The staff were particularly friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The food was good served in a beautiful open air top floor restaurant. Easy to get to town from the hills with tuc-tuc's ordered by the hotel. Wifi connection very good. Local shop within 5 minutes walk.

Robert, United Kingdom

Good room. Good free breakfast. Walkable to city but prefer tuktuk back as it's a very steep climb.

Monty, Australia

its not far from city center, view is excellent, staffs were kindly.

“À fuir! Run away! Horrible!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Deluxe Double Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
눉It was really horrible three nights! We booked a deluxe room, it was located to third floor without elevator, without wifi and with a very bad smell in the bathroom. The wifi is only in the lobby, we decided to change the room and to take the room close to the lobby. It was a standard horrible room : the room has a bad smell of humidity, no A/C, not hot water so we took shower in an other room, the bed was not comfortable at all, the bed sheet and the pillow were dirty, they have dirty marks! We were cold the night because we don't have a cover. When you move in the bed, it makes annoying noise. The flusher of the toilet was not working well, you have to flush 4 times if you want to let the toilet clean! The door of the room is noisy also. When I open the door of the room, everyone knows that I opened the door because of the noise. The pool is in shadow and dirty, impossible to swim in this pool! We asked the responsible if he can arrange us a tour in tuk-tuk, he said that it cost 2500 roupies (16$), it's too much expensive for a city like Kandy. We met a driver tuk-tuk close to the hotel and he told us it cost only 1000 roupies (6$), he said also that the responsible is a commission man, he gives 1000 roupies to the driver and keep for him 1500 roupies! So we prefer to book by ourself a tour directly with the driver tuk-tuk. We book also by ourself a trekking, the guide of the trekking came to the reception and ask the responsible to call us. He didn't do it! We decided to go the lobby to wait the guide and we found him. He was waiting for us during 20 minutes. The responsible didn't call us because we didn't book through him! About the breakfast, the coffee is disgusting, the omelette has not taste. The bread is like expired and not toasted. The salt and pepper put it the wet glass. We had a train at 6:15 am so we decided to take a tuk-tuk through him, he told us 500 roupies.

눉This hotel is SO loud, we hardly slept!! There are open partitions at the top of the wall between rooms you can hear everything. The walls are so thin we could hear the staff spraying the tables in the restaurant to clean them. The staff are gone from10pm so there is no one to talk too. There is also little breakfast choice definitely not worth paying for in the rate - go outside of the property.
