It’s a fantastic hotel! The owner is very kind and polite, took care of me the whole time and also helped me to get to his hotel. Room was excellent, very clean, modern and with wonderful view of the entire city. I felt very good there and I highly recommend this place.

We booked quite last minute and arrived in the evening, we were picked up and welcomed with a traditional Sri Lankan meal cooked by the amazing nana Nandi. The rooms are clean and the surroundings beautiful and quiet (apart from the beautiful nature sounds). Sudesh the owner is super helpful and tries to accommodate you in every need (from a Kandy tour, tuktuk service, or help by choosing a taxi driver, to a nice chat with a beer). The family has a lovingly warmth which makes you feel welcomed and at ease. We stayed here with our kids, but I would also recommend it to couples without. The fact that there are (almost) daily cooking classes makes it easy to meet people. To summarize: a recommendation from my heart! We will meet again <3

Good food, very kind owners. They gave us a lot of information about Kandy, Buddhism, Sri Lankan history and culture. The Lady borrowed us an umbrella. Sadly we havent tried the cooking lesson.

Hands down the best guest house during the entire Sri Lanka trip and one of the best in my many years of solo travelling. Room - brand new, large, comfortable bed with very cozy wooden and modern decoration. Good lighting at all hours. WiFi worked perfectly- was having multiple video calls for work. Nice bathroom - plenty of hot water and most importantly has glass shields to separate from toilet. Location - can’t be any better! 3 mins walk to the best view point in Kandy, 10 mins walk to Kandy Lake. The best photos I took in Kandy were all from the terrace, being able to watch beautiful sunrise/sunset and the panoramic view of Kandy everyday. Services - the host family is superb. Homemade and nutritious breakfast every morning that introduces you to local Sri Lanken cuisine. They are extremely knowledgeable of the country in every aspect and give great tips for travelling. While always there to help, they have a lot of privacy to each guest .

I had a wonderful stay here! The host was incredibly kind and welcoming – he even came to pick me up from the train station when I arrived and when I leaved which was such a thoughtful gesture. The breakfasts were very delicious, with very good fruitsalad (on the beautiful balcony), and he truly took great care of me during my time here. He also gave me very helpful tips for traveling around Sri Lanka, which made my trip even better. If you're looking for a warm, authentic, and peaceful place to stay, I highly recommend this place. You'll feel right at home!

This felt like the perfect place to rest in busy Kandy. Even though it’s slightly far from the center, it’s super easy (and cheap) to access by bus or tuktuk. The room was super comfortable, good shower (above average), free laundry (amazing) and a kitchen very well equipped, with some books available as well. Yama is very nice and helpful! Really recommend this place
