Wonderful lake view one night stay
Pros:

Location and room was fantastic
Staff were so great like anywhere in Sri Lanka
View of the lake and the city is really beautiful

Cons:

It was quite noisy on the early morning from street traffic. Then some school drumming which was at least in temp :-)
The beautiful view and the wide room completely worth it, but one should know to decide

Pros:

The location was excellent, very convenient for all attractions in Kandy. Breakfast was excellent . The best was the staff. Very helpful attentive and very prompt with helping with any issues we had. It was a very pleasant and enjoyable stay for a group of 7 of us. We had one family room and two double rooms . The view from the family room was beautiful looking at the lake,
Definitely could recommend for any travellers looking for peaceful convenient location when travelling to Kandy.

Cons:

Few minor maintenance issues.

We only stayed one night in this lovely hotel and enjoyed a two bedroom apartment overlooking the lake. It was very comfortable and very well equipped. The breakfast was great and the staff very kind and helpful. A great one night stay.

Centrally located hotel with good value for money and very friendly and helpful team. The kids friendlinesses I want to
Pros:

The hotel is located quite centrally in Kandy. After 10 min walk you are in the centre. The rooms are big and clean with a lot of storage space.
The hotel team was very welcoming and attentive. All stuff was always looking for our 2 small kids and trying to entertain them :) In this way we had also the chance to enjoy our breakfast, lunch or dinner. The restaurant serves very tasty dishes to very reasonable prices. Not to forget about the cafe bar where you can have a good espresso, cappuccino and also good deserts.

Cons:

The floor in the shower is quite slippery. Some maintenance is needed, especially in the pool area. The pool area is very dark, even if you switch all lights on. Therefore the area does not give such an inviting ambience.

Pros:

חדר ענק, נקי, צוות חמוד, נוף יפה מהמרפסת, וגם בית קפה צמוד למלון

Cons:

מיקום שקט יחסית אבל נמצא קצת על כביש לא הליכה הכי נעימה ברגל עדיף לקחת טוקטוק

Lekker hotel maar het zwembad viel tegen
Pros:

Centraal gelegen in de omgeving. Konden de tuktuk voor de deur parkeren. Bedden waren heerlijk en de airco deed het heel goed.

Cons:

Het zwembad was te koud om in te zwemmen en er stond geen zon op omdat het overdekt is.
