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.

The beds are very comfortable with clean linen and high quality pillows. It was also surprisingly quiet despite there being other guest houses around. The stand out is the staff- we were taken care of by Mani, who cooks some of the best breakfast I have had in Sri Lanka (I highly recommend that you request the String Hoppers with Coconut Sambal). You are also given a balanced breakfast because Mani will also prepare sliced fruit (papaya, mango, and pineapple). I am pretty sure that if you spend some time at the farmers market (there is one a short walk away near the tunnel) you will find more local fruit for less than 50p a piece and Mani will happily cut them up and serve them for you. Accessing tuks was really easy to get to the center, but it is also very walkable (it will take you about 30 minutes). The hot water works really well and the bathrooms are also spacious and clean (shampoo and conditioner provided along with soap). I would also recommend having a chat with Mr Saminda, the property manager. He is very friendly and knowledgeable about where to eat out and what to see. He suggested a restaurant to us (about 10 minutes walk from the hotel) and it had an excellent range of food both local and international. Overall, a very relaxing and peaceful stay.

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.
