A charming and intimate stay in Kandy with excellent food and very good service.
Pros:

A truly charming hotel with only seven rooms, giving it a very intimate and pleasant atmosphere. The food is genuinely excellent and the service is very good, with an attentive and welcoming team.

As everything is freshly prepared to order, we recommend letting the team know in advance what you would like to eat to avoid a long wait or finding that your preferred dish is not available.

Cons:

The air conditioning in our suite was quite noisy. The room is also above the restaurant and right next to the billiard area, so it can sometimes be a little noisy depending on the other guests.

Sehr gute Wahl, wenn man sich ein bisschen Luxus gönnen möchte
Pros:

Wunderschönes, bequemes Zimmer. Tolles Badezimmer, sehr sauber. Whirlpool toll. Ruhige und schöne Umgebung, aber dafür etwas weiter ins Zentrum, was uns aber nicht gestört hat, weil Kandys Zentrum nicht sehr schön ist. Personal war höflich aber zurückhaltend. Essen können wir nicht beurteilen, weil wir nur Übernachtung gebucht hatten, es war uns aber etwas zu teuer. Da ist man billiger unterwegs, wenn man ein Tuktuk in die Stadt nimmt.

Cons:

Kleine Anmerkung: es wäre angenehmer, wenn man den Gästen einfach erklärt, wie der Whirlpool zu nutzen ist, anstatt selbst eine halbe Stunde vor dem Whirlpool zu warten. Ist glaube ich für alle unangenehm.

A little place of paradise in Kandy

Cons:

Nothing!

Pros:

A cosy little hotel, outside the centre of Kandy. The rooms are rather nice, although not particularly spacious. Excellent service, very good breakfast.

Cons:

You will need your own transport, or rely on taxis, to get to the main attractions.
