The location of the hotel is away from the main noise of the city and set in the hills offering nice views across the valley. The swimming pool is on the roof as is the restaurant so again offers lovely views. The staff, as in every place we have stayed, are exemplary and offer polite, efficient and charming service.

Situated amidst the city's hustle and bustle, this hotel offers a peaceful haven adorned with lush greenery. The hotel's overall look and feel are simply beautiful, and the service provided was top-notch. What stood out the most for me was the hotel's architecture and interior design. The room I stayed in was tastefully decorated, adding to the pleasant experience. The food was enjoyable, and the service staff were attentive. The atmosphere of the hotel exuded a sense of luxury, making it a pleasant place to unwind after a busy day exploring the city. In summary, it was a comfortable and enjoyable stay, and I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing retreat in the heart of the city.

An oasis amongst the chaos. Rooms are so nice, newly renovated, and supper comfy. Location is very central (walking distance to the busyness). Nicest pool we had during our stay. The deal we got on our room meant exceptional value for money, plus the front desk were nice enough to upgrade us to lake view rooms at no extra cost.

Kandy is a lovely town but quite spread out so choose your hotel with care. Transport is very cheap though and readily available. The roads are busy and the bus drivers bonkers! It is a good base for seeing other attractions.

We lived here as children. Our father taught at Zahira College. We had contacted them and they received is kindly and showed us around. We found the house where we lived and the lady there was very friendly. Our father's friend's son and daughter gave us lunch at their resort. All that was great.

Our stay at Royal Mountain Edge, Knuckles from 16/05/2025 was an unforgettable experience! It began with a guided hike organized by the team, tailored perfectly to our preferences. The hike was magnificent, with an excellent and caring guide. The packed lunch provided during the hike was both delicious and energy-packed—just what we needed. After the hike, we returned to Royal Mountain Edge, where we enjoyed a refreshing dip in the infinity pool followed by warm tea and local snacks. In the evening, they surprised us with a cozy bonfire, serving local brews as we warmed ourselves by the flames. For dinner, the BBQ platter was absolutely delicious and satisfying. The silence time began at 11:00 PM, but until then, we immersed ourselves in the serene forest surroundings and its enchanting nightlife. The rooms were spacious, cozy, and impeccably clean, offering a perfect retreat after an adventurous day. The next morning, we woke up early to watch the sunrise near the pool, accompanied by a hot cup of coffee graciously served by the staff. Breakfast was a delightful spread of local delicacies, including milk rice, lunu miris, chicken curry, and fresh fruits. It was the perfect way to end our magical stay at Royal Mountain Edge, Knuckles. Highly recommended for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike!

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.
