We spent one night at the BYLAKE and absolutely loved our stay. The property is newly established in a fully renovated building, located in an affluent and peaceful area near the lake. From there, it’s easy to walk into the city centre, or you can hop in a tuk-tuk for a quick ride. Note that the property is not yet on Google maps, but if you put the actual address it can be easily found. Our room was modern, cozy, and clean, with beautiful wooden elements that gave it a warm, welcoming feel. What really made our stay special was the staff – everyone was incredibly kind and attentive. A special shout-out goes to the manager, Patrick, who went above and beyond to help us arrange transport, show us beautiful views from the roof terrace, share great local tips, and even organize an early breakfast for us. His hospitality made all the difference. ❤️ We’d definitely stay at this place again.

It’s not just another hotel, it’s a place with rich history and walking around the hallways feels like being inside of a movie. We had an amazing time in one of the rooms with terrace that opens straight to the garden. It’s a truly beautiful place, right in front of the Kandy lake with colonial architecture and classic decor making it feel really special. The room was clean and spacious, with high ceilings. The inner garden was an escape from all the noise of the city, a true hideaway. Pricing is VERY reasonable for this kind of high standard. All the hotel staff is professional and very friendly, but we are especially grateful to beautiful Sachini and Ayech from the front desk, who were so very kind in assisting us and taking care of all our problems when we arrived early and then needed adjustment with our room too. Thank you so much for your highest level of hospitality. I’ve stayed in many hotels but this is definitely one of my favorite ones. I would come to Kandy again even just to stay here again. Also be sure to visit the pool and have a breakfast at the hotel restaurant, it’s so worth it!

Location is incredible. Staff is so friendly. Got the honeymoon suite for half the price of the website, therefore great value for money. The tent was a dream and we are so happy that we spent one night there. One thing that could have even further improved our stay: a bootle of bubbles in the minibar fridge - we would have bought it :)

Kandy is a big city for Sri Lanka so busy and hard to cover in short stays but I really enjoyed my time there (4 nights). The botanic gardens and Tooth Relic temple were highlights as was the traditional dancing night. Some great venues with views, good food and vibe. I had the one driver for the trip which I recommend as you get to find places and things to do from a local. My driver Neel was great. We visited a Vedda village and museum outside of Kandy to interact with the Aboriginal people of Sri Lanka which I highly recommend.

Our stay at Royal Mountain Edge, Knuckles from 16/05/2025 was an unforgettable experience! It began with a guided hike organized by the team, tailored perfectly to our preferences. The hike was magnificent, with an excellent and caring guide. The packed lunch provided during the hike was both delicious and energy-packed—just what we needed. After the hike, we returned to Royal Mountain Edge, where we enjoyed a refreshing dip in the infinity pool followed by warm tea and local snacks. In the evening, they surprised us with a cozy bonfire, serving local brews as we warmed ourselves by the flames. For dinner, the BBQ platter was absolutely delicious and satisfying. The silence time began at 11:00 PM, but until then, we immersed ourselves in the serene forest surroundings and its enchanting nightlife. The rooms were spacious, cozy, and impeccably clean, offering a perfect retreat after an adventurous day. The next morning, we woke up early to watch the sunrise near the pool, accompanied by a hot cup of coffee graciously served by the staff. Breakfast was a delightful spread of local delicacies, including milk rice, lunu miris, chicken curry, and fresh fruits. It was the perfect way to end our magical stay at Royal Mountain Edge, Knuckles. Highly recommended for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike!

Kandy is clean, safe and overall very beautiful city with variety of attractions and activities. Surrounded by beautiful nature this is by far one of my favorite cities. Make sure you visit beautiful botanical garden, enjoy evening traditional dance performance by the lake and make sure you visit some of the beautiful temples or just enjoy wandering around looking for a new viewpoint. City offers variety of restaurants and bars. Tuk tuk is fast and easy way to go around.
