Like the idea that you can fill up the water in the reception - rather than giving the bottled water. The room was clean and quiet. Hotel in good location near the central market and the temple of tooth. We had a short but lovely stay.

Great hotel at a reasonable price!

This hotel is a great choice for a short stopover. All staff are so helpful and nothing is too much trouble. Rooms are comfortable with a huge bathroom , which is well kitted out with amenities. The only downside is the air conditioning unit which is very loud. Breakfasts are varied and dinners are tasty.

We spent three nights at the hotel on our first trip. The room was not in good condition and it smelled. After our trip to Ella, we returned and stayed for a couple more nights, and we were given a better room, which was very nice. The service personnel were very helpful, and we got everything we needed

Friendly, clean, modern bathroom

Friendly and helpful staff. A pleasant, modern hotel in relatively central location. In the built-up hustle and bustle of Kandy which may not be to everyone’s taste. Breakfast was good value. Room was simple but comfortable with modern bathroom and hot shower. One small issue - our room was one of those situated around a central stairwell and noise of people up and down stairs/in and out of rooms etc carries - can be disturbing late in the evening.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The hotel is in a central location, but at times found it hard to try and park our taxi due to the roads being so busy. The pool was smaller than we anticipated but we’ve got to say the bed was soooooo comfy! The hotel’s central location made it easy to walk into town. The room was ok, but had no windows to the outside, just into the indoor courtyard. The hotel also offers 0 use of plastic so offers water glass jars to be filled up for your room. All in all the hotel was good.

Lovely hotel, would come again

We really enjoyed our stay at Sevana City. All the staff were very friendly and helpful including the restaurant. The food was good and fair prices. The room was clean and bed was comfy. Only comment would be some more space to put toiletries in the bathroom. Free water filter was very helpful. Nice outside area for lounging or dip in pool. Good location for getting to main sights by foot. We ate at ‘mystery meat’ just opposite the hotel which was also good. The hotel kindly organised a guide for a day trip to Sigiriya from why not getaways…Rehan was BRILLIANT and we would recommend him to anyone!!

こじんまりしたホテルで、エレベーターがなく大荷物の方には向きません。朝食込みのプランを選びましたが、何だかしっかり追加料金とやらを取られました。。。と言うか取られない選択メニューがあったのかすら(レストランのホスピタリティと美味しさでプライスレス？)　中庭ビューと言う部屋にしましたが、中庭を見るには、大きなシェードを開けてこちらの室内全てを廊下に見せる必要がありました笑　1階ロビーの給水機は大変助かり、持参したティーバッグやコーヒーや緑茶やみそ汁などなどに活用しました。

We stayed one night here. It was a nice upgrade from other hotels we have stayed in within Sri Lanka and for a lower price. Nice spacious bathroom, with all toiletries supplied. Nice views from the pool/restaurant area. Really enjoyed the breakfast (not included in price). Walking distance to Kandy lake. Only downside was the limited view which looked into an inside courtyard.

キャンディ駅に比較的近く、早朝便(6:15発)で5:30ホテル出発でしたが、常駐した老人従業員に玄関ドアの鍵を開けて頂きました。事前に早朝出発を伝えておくと良いでしょう。外の景色は見えない中部屋でしたので、朝雨が降って居ないかロビーまで確認する手間と、私達の泊まった4階はエレベーターが無いのでキャリーケースを下ろす手間が掛かりました。それ以外は特に気にする事も無くシャワーのお湯も熱くて良かったです。
