The service provided by the staff of Kandy City is excellent, the hotel itself is a little dated and the picture isn’t actually the hotel. But for a budget option my partner and I were happy. Breakfast was super filling and generous.
The hotel is an awkward spot but a close enough walk to the lake and shopping areas.

So overall this hotel was an excellent option. My room had a great view, especially at night with the city lights against the mountainsides. The lock on the door, although it did lock, was a bit difficult and frustrating.
However, Kandy City stay does get high marks for staff and their local tours. The hotel’s (mainly elephant park) was excellent and very economical.

Superbly located with beautiful views of Kandy City. The breakfast was tasty and provided a nice touch. Staff were hospitable and accommodating generally. Room was mountain view and was spacious. However, there were some mild stains on the sheet. Overall though, it was a nice stay.

This hotel has spacious rooms and lovely windows to look over the city. What was absolutely outstanding was the customer service and genuine care from staff. We needed to extend our stay on our day of check out after being hospitalised in kandy. The staff organised everything and even waited until we were discharged from hospital at 1230AM to hand deliver us our room key and make sure we got in safe.

Friendly staff and nice breakfast however the hotel room was really terrible. Not very clean and it was a mouse or a rat living in the walls that keeps us awake the whole night.

This hotel needs some serious upgrades & a good coat of paint. Entrance & Reception is awful & made us want to run away! The room itself was not too bad.

Det bedste ved dette hotel er en fremragende udsigt. Hvis det er det man går efter, er det et godt valg ellers ikke.
Værelset var ‘stort’ og udemærket, dog meget lyt ud til gangen! Rummet var lækkert ift prisen. Til morgenmad kunne man både få srilankansk- og engelsk morgenmad - rart med lidt afveksling. Flot udsigt ved terrassen hvor man spiser mad. Hoteller ligger dejligt centralt både til stationen og byen. Man kunne gå direkte til begge ting! En anbefaling hvis man ønsker at bo midt i byen til få penge.
