Eden kandy was the last and also the best hostel I stayed and honestly, it was fantastic. The whole place was super clean—whether it was the lobby, the rooms, or the lovely courtyard where you could lounge on chairs and just relax. They even had some monkeys occasionally wandering around the yard, which was pretty fun to see! The manager was incredibly friendly and helpful, always trying to assist with anything guests needed. They provided free filtered drinking water, as well as complimentary tea, coffee, and Nescafé in the kitchen, which was fully equipped and even had a kettle so you could make hot water whenever you wanted. Out of the four hostels I stayed at during my week in Sri Lanka, this one was the best. The price was very reasonable, the room’s cooler and fan worked perfectly, and overall it was just an excellent experience. I’d absolutely recommend it and would definitely stay there again if I come back to Sri Lanka.

This was a special stay for us. The staff went above and beyond for us and were constantly so warm, friendly, generous and lovely. We only wish we could’ve stayed longer and spent more time in the accommodation and with the staff. The facilities and space were extremely lovely, beautiful and very clean. Cannot recommend this place enough and we would 100% come back if we were ever in Kandy! Thank you for everything!

I was really impressed by the accommodation here - it is very modern and kept spotlessly clean. The facilities are excellent, but what makes this place special is the incredibly caring and helpful staff. They went out of their way to ensure I had everything I needed, making the service feel very personal and attentive. A special mention must go to Vihan, who was so friendly and really made my stay even more pleasant. Beyond the great hospitality, I loved the peaceful atmosphere surrounding the villa - waking up to the sounds of birds and nature was a wonderful bonus that added so much value to the experience.

Our stay at Galkaduwa360 Villa was truly exceptional! From the moment we arrived, our host, Susantha, made us feel incredibly welcome. He went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable experience. On our departure day, he even drove us to the train station and helped us get there just in time to catch our train – a lifesaver!!! The views from the villa are stunning, offering a perfect backdrop for relaxation. The dinner was another highlight. Susantha prepared a delicious meal for us that wasn’t spicy, which was much appreciated as we found most food in Sri Lanka to be a bit too spicy for our taste. We highly recommend Galkaduwa360 Villa and want to thank Susantha for his outstanding hospitality. We would definitely return!

The guestroom is located in the families green garden and has a lot of space, even with a little are in the „second level“. We felt very welcome by the whole family from the first second on. As the house is located on a mountain hill, it was a bit tricky to get there, however, Sudesh organized it perfectly. The room is spacious, clean and had everything that was promised in the booking. The queen sized bed was super comfy and we had a good night rest despite the heavy rain that night. The breakfast was the best we had so far on our trip through Sri Lanka and we were even asked for any preferences on what to get & when to get it. Totally recommend!!
