Overall, I had a pleasant stay with a comfortable room, good breakfast, and a beautiful view
Pros:

The room is very comfortable and relaxing. The breakfast is good and enjoyable. The view is superb and makes the stay even better. Customer service also superb.

Cons:

The welcome drink was served in a small glass, which was not very convenient. Also, the glasses used during breakfast were of different shapes, which felt a bit inconsistent. In addition, the TV in the room was quite small.

Pros:

Une très bel hôtel niché dans les hauteurs de Kandy.
Une piscine magnifique avec une vue sur le lac est sur un immense boudha au loin.
Le buffet du dîner et petit déjeuner était très bon.
Le personnel est un peu lourd mais c'est leurs façons d'être conviviaux.
La chambre était un peu vetuste mais confortable
