Hezký a čistý pokoj, místo na sezení venku, moderní koupelna. Ubytování jsme vybrali hlavně kvůli bazénu pro děti a ten byl skvělý.

Cons:

Nic.

Pros:

Logement incroyable, au coeur d'un petit jardin paradisiaque. Les hôtes étaient charmantes, les repas étaient délicieux. L'hôtel est un peu en dehors de Kandy (20 min en TukTuk), ce que nous avons adoré, afin de pouvoir visiter les alentours tout en étant au coeur de la nature. La chambre était spacieuse , très propre, avec une très belle salle de bain.

Cons:

Rien à dire, c'était parfait!

Havre de paix à Kandy
Pros:

L’établissement est très confortable et un grand soin est apportée par le propriétaire et sa famille à l’extérieur. Nous ne sommes restées qu’une nuit mais nous aurions pu rester plus. C’est le meilleur rapport qualité prix que nous avons eu durant notre séjour. Très propre et très convivial

Cons:

Le repas du soir

Séjour parfait !
Pros:

Le personnel du French Garden Kandy est absolument adorable, nous avons été très bien accueillis. L’hôtel est calme, avec beaucoup de charme, les chambres sont propres, les petits dej incroyables comme toujours au Sri Lanka, les dîners à la chandelle, la piscine très agréable le soir après les visites, bref tout nous a plu !

Pros:

Mooi zwembad. De twee dienstjongens zijn erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam.

Cons:

We hebben gebruik gemaakt van de Laundryservice. Wij troffen in een kledingstuk een beschadiging aan, die daarvoor niet aanwezig was. Management weigerde mee te denken en we werden uitgelachen. Dat is geen service. Verder ligt de locatie ruim buiten het centrum en wil niet elke chauffeur je naar het hotel brengen.

Pros:

This hotel is designed really nicely with lots of trees and plants and a lovely pool area. It is quite a way out of Kandy but a tuk tuk by Pick Me was easy and cheap. We had a bit of an issue with noise from a room above us, but overall it was ideal for our stay in Kandy.

Pros:

Lovely room with terrace. Comfortable bed, good shower.
Pool booked good but we didn't have time to use it. Breakfast good

Cons:

I had read that it was quite a way outside of Kandy but hadn't realised quite how far. So we spent quite a bit of time on tuk tuks, slightly nerve wracking as Kandy is extremely hilly. Not an issue as we didn't mind being out of the city. We prefer the quiet location but something to be aware of
