The Golden Crown Hotel is a 5-star hotel located in Ampitya, Kandy, Srilanka. Set amidst lush paddy fields surrounded by lush greens, the property is just 10-minute drive away from the famous Temple of the Tooth Relic. The staff were very nice , helpful and friendly. The pool is super nice. Rooms were comfortable. We would stay here again if we come back to Sri Lanka.

The atmosphere was serene and inviting, and every detail seemed designed to ensure comfort and relaxation. Our room was spotless, beautifully maintained, and incredibly cozy. The common areas were equally lovely — ideal for both moments of peace and time together as a family.

This was more than just a stay; it was an experience of true hospitality. We left with full hearts and wonderful memories. We can’t wait to come back — thank you for everything!

Located in Kandy, 7.4 km from Kandy Royal Botanic Gardens, Danisco Leisure Bunglow provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant. This 5-star hotel offers room service and a 24-hour front desk. The property is equipped with an outdoor pool and is situated 12 km from Kandy railway station. After a disappointing experience in Kandy and a grueling 10-hour drive, we arrived at this incredible haven, where we were warmly welcomed by Inoka at the gate. She went above and beyond, even helping us maneuver our little tuk-tuk up the driveway. The dinner she prepared was absolutely delicious, and the hospitality was unmatched. This place, and its wonderful owner, truly became one of the highlights of our journey through Sri Lanka. The breakfast? Simply out of this world! We’ll be recommending this hidden gem to everyone we know.
