Stunning hotel with a superb view onto kandy
Pros:

We had a beautiful stay at Rivora Heights. The hotel is absolutely gorgeous. From the moment you enter you feel almost like a spa atmosphere. Our room was so well designed and had a beautiful mountain view. The service was superb and we can highly recommend having breakfast with a view. All in all, this was the best hotel we stayed in during our trip. We left well rested and would always come back.

Comfortable stay with incredible views
Pros:

Staff were fantastic, so welcoming and friendly. Couldn't do enough for us. It's a very new, clean hotel, with very comfy beds. The pool was a nice treat and the views from the restaurant were stunning. Food in the restaurant was good, the breakfast was a little basic but still very varied.

Cons:

Not much we didnt like. It's a bit of a walk up the hill but that gave us amazing views on their rooftop restaurant and to be fair you could easily get a tuk tuk, they're everywhere, easy to catch just outside hotel.
