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.

Kandy, often called the cultural capital of Sri Lanka, is a city that blends history, nature, spirituality, and urban life in a uniquely charming way. Located in the central hill country, it remains one of the most visited cities in the island. Kandy has a calm, scenic, and slightly old-world charm. It is less hectic than Colombo but more active than smaller hill towns, offering a perfect balance for travelers who want culture, greenery, and city convenience in one place. The Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic (Sri Dalada Maligawa) is the city’s most iconic attraction and sacred to Buddhists worldwide. The city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its deep cultural heritage and preserved traditions. Kandy is rich in tradition, music, dance, and ancient rituals, making it a paradise for cultural enthusiasts.

Kandy is a beautiful town with so much to see and do.

Kandy is a beautiful town with so much to see and do. It’s the perfect central base for exploring nearby highlights like Nuwara Eliya and other major sightseeing spots. The famous Kandy–Ella train ride is a wonderful experience with stunning views. Kandy Lake is lovely for an evening walk, and the local markets — especially the Sunday market — are absolutely worth visiting. The Dalada Maligawa (Temple of the Tooth) is a must-see; try to go in the evening when it’s cooler and the atmosphere is even more peaceful. Overall, Kandy is a charming town that offers culture, scenery, and convenience all in one.

Our trip around Kandy was truly memorable!

Our trip around Kandy was truly memorable! We loved visiting the Temple of the Tooth, strolling around the peaceful lake, and exploring the vibrant local markets. The botanical gardens were stunning, and everything was easy to reach from the train station. Great food, kind people, and beautiful scenery all around.

People advised us to have 2 days in Kandy - we would have been fine with just one. The weather did not help us it rained on and off the entire time we were there. Temple of the Sacred Tooth - tick - walk around the Botanical gardens - tick - Shopping DISMAL - Kandyan dance performance extremely touristy. I wish we had allocated an extra day for the hill country instead of Kandy, Best meal we had was at the Hideaway Lounge. Central market - awful fresh food and spices but seriously hideous tourist souvenirs. Old building needs renovation.

Kandy is an interesting historic city, with a number of must see sights - the Temple of The tooth, a walk around the lake, the Big Buddha. Peradeniya Botanical Gardens are just on the edge of the city. The market is bustling. If you are there in late July/early August you may catch the Perahera Festival - a parade of dressed elephants, fire whirlers, Kandy Dancers, Drummers and whip crackers.

The city centre is very polluted but there is a lot to see and it is worth exploring. I highly recommend taking a tuk tuk tour to visit the sights. We had an adventurous day out with Explore Kandy with Sajith Tuk Tuk Tours.

The location was good only 1.9km from railway station but because ti is new, no-one knew where the hotel was, TukTuk driver eventually found it as his grandmother lives in the area. You cannot walk to anywhere you need transport to get down into the town. Breakfast was ok but very expensive for what it was. $15pp. During our time travelling around Sri Lanka, we never paid much more than 1200 SLR (£3).

Hidden gem outside Kandy. Stopped here for one night on our way from Sigiriya to Ella to break up the tuktuk drive a bit. Hotel is ran by very friendly guys and the room was great with a nice balcony with a view over the valley. Swimming pool was a great addition as we used it both that afternoon and the next morning before we left. Breakfast was also very good - best hoppers i had in Sri Lanka.

Super lovely boutique hotel in Kandy with two of the nicest, most helpful, hosts you will meet. The breakfast was fantastic and the view from the room and communal area was gorgeous. The place was spotlessly clean and I can honestly say I got the best nights sleep I’d had in Sri Lanka while I was there. It was an amazing deal for the price we paid and I can’t recommend it highly enough!

The hotel is in a very quiet area with a short tuk tuk ride into town for eating. Although we ate (good food) in the hotel every night. Room is large and well equipped with a big comfortable bed. All considered this hotel has a really good quality price ratio. Totally recommend this hotel . At this price, possibly the best option in Kandy.
