Having stayed in many hotels all over the world, I was surprised to discover this unpretentious one.
Pros:

Am surprised that the hotel wasn't teeming with guests as it's so good. Excellent service (Sisira in particular was exceptional). Although it doesn't have a swimming pool or gymnasium, it suited our purpose for which we visited.

Cons:

Can't think of any.

Low grade hotel, I feel really ripped off by Booking.com
Pros:

Nothing really

Cons:

Location.
Hotel old and tired, felt like it was on its last legs. Needs major renovation or closure.
Noise from room above which was in fact partly inside our room
Poor breakfast offering, you take what they give you.
Gates were locked at 21.00, had to call each time to have them opened. Waited in heavy rain one night.

Professionelt og trygt ophold med enestående panoramaudsigt over Kandy
Pros:

Opholdet på Amaara Sky Hotel i Kandy var præget af høj servicekvalitet og stor opmærksomhed på gæsternes behov. Ved ankomst blev vi imødekommende modtaget med en velkomstdrink, og personalet var fra første øjeblik hjælpsomt og serviceminded. De bar kufferterne til værelset, besvarede spørgsmål grundigt og orienterede os om brugen af PickMe-appen, hvilket bidrog til, at man som gæst følte sig tryg og undgik at blive snydt.

Hotellets personale udviser et tydeligt værtskab og tager aktivt hånd om gæsterne. De hjælper gerne med at arrangere videre transport, planlægge næste etape af rejsen og giver kvalificerede forslag til sightseeing og oplevelser i området. Sikkerheden på hotellet opleves som meget høj, hvilket yderligere understøtter følelsen af tryghed under opholdet.

Værelset var stort, pænt og meget rent, og alle faciliteter fungerede upåklageligt. Et særligt højdepunkt er hotellets fantastiske panoramaudsigt med solopgang over Kandy, som giver en enestående og mindeværdig start på dagen.

Samlet set fremstår Amaara Sky Hotel som et professionelt drevet hotel med fokus på service, sikkerhed og gæsteoplevelse, og det kan varmt anbefales til både korte og længere ophold i Kandy.

Cons:

Alt var godt.

Pros:

Das Frühstück ist Weltklasse. Insbesondere das große Zimmer, das wir hatten.... wie Könige haben wir uns gefühlt. Und das Personal ist unfassbar aufmerksam und professionell. Wer denkt, das Hotel sei außerhalb: Nein, 5 Minuten mit dem TukTuk und ihr seid im Herzen von Kandy. Aber im Hotel halt: Oberhalb

Pros:

A reasonably priced hotel. Staff were helpful and kind. From the main road to the hotel roads are narrow and winding, understandably since Kandy is a hill country city.
