Pros:

Buen alojamiento con una bonita decoración.
El personal ha sido muy amable.
Está un poco alejado del centro (en tuk tuk se llega enseguida 5-10mins), lo cual se agradece para descansar sin ruidos.
Cama muy cómoda.
Y el desayuno delicioso con vistas a las montañas.

Cons:

Todo bien

Excellent short stay
Pros:

The location is in the center of the town. The staff is amazing. Eventhough we checked in late they were waiting for us enthusiastically.

Since there were no other bookings, they upgraded us to bigger room. We checked out early as 5AM. The person who were looking after the hotel prepared us a coffee.

Cons:

I think in busy days the parking might not available. It can only accomodate one car. So if you are coming better to call them before the arival.

Brilliant hotel
Pros:

Great location outside of the hustle and bustle of the centre with an amazing view. Only 10/15 mins drive from the centre.

The staff are great. The tuk tuk driver Sampath actually works for the hotel. This was better than hotels that call in a tuk tuk driver, as he gave us a way better price to take to Ambuluwawa tower and Kandy town centre. He is a really nice honest man.

The rooms were nice and clean. The breakfast was decent.

Ein gelungener Aufenthalt in Kandy
Pros:

Die Unterkunft ist etwas ruhiger gelegen, aber zentral genug, um zu allen Sehenswürdigkeiten in Kandy zügig mit dem TukTuk zu kommen. Besonders positiv hervorzuheben ist die Freundlichkeit und Hilfsbereitschaft des Personals. Während unseres Aufenthaltes begleitete uns Sampath - er fuhr uns auch mit dem TukTuk zu den Attraktionen und stand für alle Fragen zur Verfügung. Für einen Rundtrip durch Kandy können wir nur wärmstens empfehlen, diesen mit Sampath zu unternehmen.

Toller Ausblick und hervorragender Gastgeber
Pros:

We can highly recommend staying at Chariot Square. The rooms are beautifully furnished, and the location is excellent – very quiet, yet still close to the city. The view is absolutely phenomenal.

The host is incredibly kind and helpful. He even drives a tuk-tuk himself and offers very fair prices. He also gives great tips and recommendations for the area.

He arranged a driver for us as well, and it turned out to be one of the best drivers we had during our trip. Overall, we were completely satisfied with our stay.

Cons:

Nothing
