Un bon hôtel au calme et loin de l'agitation de Kandy. C'est mieux d'être véhiculé pour y accéder. Nous y étions hors période touristique, il n'y avait donc personne d'autres que nous dans l'hôtel qui est très joliment décoré.

Nice,peaceful location near Kandy town. Hotel is a family business. Staff is very helpful and polite,room was spacious and clean. Restaurant was also excellent. If you need to go to Kandy then you will have to use a taxi,tuk tuk or rent a scooter but this was not a problem for my staying. Overall i would recommend this place for relaxation and family atmosphere.

God service!

Vi fikk et stort og velinnredet rom med gode senger. Personalet var svært imøtekommende og var også veldig hjelpsomme når vi 4t etter avreise kom på at vi hadde glemt passene i safen. Et fint lite hotell et stykke fra Kandy sentrum som ga både ro og god mat.

Fantastic boutique hotel

Fantastic family hotel although a little away from town. Best part was the manner in which we were looked after by the very kind family. We had a superb vegetarian meal prepared home style by the family. Excellent housekeeping and the boy helper was fantastic- he went out of his way to make our stay comfortable. I would suggest that the place does NOT need a gym or swimming pool and the space with the bar etc is all wasted and that they are better off having rooms instead. Little out of town but the stay was fantastic

Cute, Cosy, and Clean.

Wonderful family owned B&B. Well decorated, clean and comfortable ( The bed was a little hard for me but pillow really nice) It's a small cute place with fantastic service. A small pool outside was nice to swim in at night to relax. When the cable worked there was a few english chanels but the electricity went out( not the hotels fault of course) Air con works really well. Food was good, depending on what you ordered. The staff helped us book a driver(he was awesome!) The only thing that was strange is when we sat down to eat in the dinning area, they would literally stand right behind us and watch us eat. lol I know they are trying to be at service but that was a bit much. And there is a dog outside in the back yard, that was facing our window and he Barks very loud and constantly. The owners did shut him up a few times and he did stop barking late at night, so we would sleep. Other then the staring and dog, it's really quite a cute place. I'd go again! ( Also, last thing, we were charged more then the actual booking from hotels.com. We booked the room for 64 canadian and was charged more 95 canadian. I have to contact Hotels.com and tell them)

Beautiful hotel, a little far from city centre

The hotel is very new and the layout is very nice. The hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. They helped us get to the places we wanted to see and with transportation to our next village. They pay attention to the small details that make you comfortable...sometimes simple things like providing a box of tissue and a face cloth. The only drawback was that it is a little far from the city centre.

Fantastic hotel with extraordinary service

Ayaana Boutique Hotel is a new and modern family owned hotel located approximately 15-20 minutes drive from Kandy city centre, the Temple of the Tooth, and the train station. It's easy to reach with a taxi or tuk-tuk (and the hotel staff love to help you out). The rooms are modern, very clean, and extremely comfortable. The hotel also offers a relaxing pool area, a nice gym, home cooked tasty food, and much more. The staff is welcoming and extraordinary service minded. This was by far the best hotel we had in Sri Lanka. I travelled with my parents and we all loved it. I recommend it to everyone travelling to Kandy.

wonderful, family owned hotel outside of Kandy

My husband and I stayed at Ayaana hotel for 2 nights on January 23rd/24th and we really enjoyed our stay there! The staff is very friendly and helpful and the place has the charm of a little boutique hotel surrounded by trees and beautiful mountain views! We were cooked breakfast each morning, made to order and the food was delicious! Sadly it was raining during our stay there so we weren't able to enjoy the pool, but we had a glance at it and it looked fantastic just like the pictures! I would definitely suggest this hotel for anyone staying around the Kandy area ( its about 15 minutes outside of Kandy proper) and my husband and I would stay there again! Also a plus there is a wine shop right at the bottom of the hill about a two minute walk from the hotel :)

Amazing Boutique Hotel in Kandy!

I absolutely loved this place! My family and I stayed here for two nights while we were in Sri Lanka for our winter vacation. Prior to our arrival, the owner of the hotel contacted me, and asked if there was anything we needed to make our stay more enjoyable. He was able to arrange a fantastic tour and driver for our entire 11 day stay in the country! The staff at Ayaana itself is so welcoming, hospitable, and kind. They answered all of our questions about the city. They also provided incredible home cooked meals, coffee, tea, and fresh juice at our request. The hotel was also very peaceful. It was like waking up at home, but with the amenities of a hotel. Absolutely fantastic. You must stay here if you come to Kandy!
