Lovely balcony view and super spacious room, English-style breakfast was a real treat (since we have been having local style breakfast everyday for a long time), Helpful staff, and we enjoyed the property is a very walkable to the lake. Although the property seems to be high up, actually it is very pleasant for us to walking especially taking a stroll after dinner around the lake …

Host is very helpful. I had a bag of laundry and he made sure that it is taken care of so I could go and discover the city. The facility is super nice, quiet but still easily accessible. It is easy to feel like home, lots of spots to relax and recharge.

    Of all the locations in Kandy, this hotel is fantastic. A tiny walk from the entrance to the Temple of the Tooth makes it ideal for a tourist stay. Very affordable. Rooms are small. Kind Sri Lankan service as was experienced throughout the whole country.

    I wanted to let you know that a very tasteful entrance which led down to the room we had booked. I would like to add this was the last room they had which was a budget room with twin beds. The room was spotless, breakfast was amazing and the staff were very attentive. Wonderful gardens in a quiet location

    The property is located in an ideal location with a beautiful greeny surrounding. It's a few minutes walking distance to the temple of tooth, the kandy lake, restaurants, shops and ect. Property has decent level facilities, it's very clean & comfortable with big rooms & common areas. There is a balcony with a mountain view where you can sit and relax, Staff is very kind & helpful to everyone. I do not hesitate to recommend this hostel to anyone and I wish to come back agian.
