Empfehlenswert für einen Aufenthalt in Kandy
Pros:

- schön eingerichtet
- sehr nettes & hilfsbereites Personal
- reichhaltiges Frühstück
- bequeme Betten, große Zimmer
- tolle Lage mit Ausblick auf den See

Cons:

- wir haben bereits vor Anreise geschrieben, dass wir beide vegetarisch sind und eine Person zusätzlich glutenfreies Essen benötigt. Vor Ort wusste man von nichts und die Kommunikation mit dem Kellner am Morgen war etwas schwierig - konnte dann aber geklärt werden und es wurde kurzfristig noch Reis gereicht

Thanks for a lovely stay at your beautiful lodge.
Pros:

Lovely staff and property by the lake. Breakfast was fresh and delicious. Wifi worked great.

Cons:

The bathroom is downstairs a level from the bedroom area. I didn’t really like that when nature called in the middle of the night.

Pros:

Great location, very quite but very central with good view of lake. Room was contemporary and a great size.

Cons:

Some bedside lights would have been nice, strange and pointless cupboard above the luggage rack was a hazard as I managed to bang my head on it quite hard - my fault!

Super Aufenthalt
Pros:

Superfreundliches Personal, schön ausgestattete, neuwertige Zimmer, toller Blick vom Balkon. Die Lage ist ebenfalls super - man ist sofort zu Fuss in der Stadt. Trotzdem ist es ruhig. Das Frühstück ist ein Traum - kann die SWP Ecolodge nur wärmstens empfehlen! Sehr gerne wieder!

Stylisches Hotel mit traumhaftem Ausblick und angenehmer Atmosphäre
Pros:

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt im SWP Eco Lodge in Kandy und würden jederzeit wiederkommen. Die Unterkunft ist ziemlich neu, sehr stilvoll eingerichtet und außergewöhnlich sauber. Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt im SWP Eco Lodge in Kandy und würden jederzeit wiederkommen. Die Unterkunft ist ziemlich neu, sehr stilvoll eingerichtet und außergewöhnlich sauber. Unsere Zimmer ging über zwei Ebenen und hatte zusätzlich einen schönen Balkon.

Besonders beeindruckt hat uns die überdachte Dachterrasse mit traumhaftem Blick über den See von Kandy und direkt auf den gegenüberliegenden Zahntempel – einfach fantastisch, vor allem abends. Hier haben wir Frühstück und Dinner eingenommen.

Das WLAN war sehr gut und zuverlässig. Das Frühstück war mehr als reichhaltig und wurde individuell nach unseren Wünschen zubereitet. Auch das Dinner im Hotel können wir absolut empfehlen – alles war sehr lecker und bestens organisiert.

Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und die angenehme Atmosphäre sehr genossen. Klare Empfehlung!

Cons:

Nichts

Genial !!!
Pros:

Todo!!!

Cons:

La habitación es tipo duplex. El baño está abajo y la habitación arriba, pero aún así vale la pena. En el desayuno el pan estaba un poco seco.

Pros:

Super godt beliggende værelse tæt på byen men alligevel i et roligt område. Lidt stejl opstigning til hotellet, men hjælp til bagage fra de meget serviceorienterede ansatte. Dejlig balkon.

Cons:

Udsynet fra balkon over søen var hæmmet af træer i vores værelse, som lå i stueplan. Vil helt klart anbefale at tage et værelse på 1. sal

Pros:

We had a decent stay overall. The location was convenient and the staff was polite and helpful during our visit. The room was comfortable enough for a short stay. Everything was generally fine and the hotel offered good value for the price.

Cons:

Cleanliness could have been better in some areas and there was a noticeable damp/moldy smell in the room.

Abbiamo pagato la struttura decisamente troppo rispetto a quanto ha offerto.
Pros:

Posizione molto comoda per visitare il tempio e il centro di Kandy. Buona colazione con vista lago.

Cons:

In generale la struttura era mal tenuta. La cassaforte non funzionava. Ci hanno fatto pagare appena arrivati senza darci una ricevuta.

Perfect for central Kandy - an oasis in amongst the hustle and bustle .
Pros:

Location and the views of Kandy Lake . The staff were so helpful including the drop off to the bus station . The food is also very good . Would highly recommend this hotel.
