Beautiful view, kind and helpful staff
It's a 250rp tuk tuk ride out of town but nice and quiet, has amazing views from the top floor and restaurant, is clean and comfortable. Restaurant is really good, definitely recommend the Sri Lankan curries. The staff helped us set up a day trip to Sigiriya, and got us a private car out there for cheaper than we could've found elsewhere. We asked for the help though, they weren't pushy about tours which was very nice. Watching the monkeys play in the trees from the balcony in the morning was really cool. Definitely recommend this place.

less than expected
First the hotel staff gave the room without ac, and tv or phone. AC and TV were there in the room but not working. It was hot but they said it would cool down and you won't need AC. After few minutes I told them I couldn't stay in the room without AC, then they changed the room. I paid for a bigger room but got a smaller room. When I asked for TV, they said I was the first person to ask for TV. There was a phone in the room but your call can't be transferred to the room. Beddings could be more clean. There was no towels in the bath room, when I asked for towels, they provided one. . I asked them to arrange a taxi to Colombo airport. They charged Rs 6000 in advance but arranged the smallest possible taxi (Tata Nano) in the world without AC that I came to know only at the time I was leaving in the morning. I am sure such a taxi would cost less than they charged me. Overall, I was much disappointed staying there.

Good value for money
Very good quality/price ratio. Our room was reasonably clean, spacious. The bathroom was ok (not perfect, but not bad either). The area is rather quiet with nice views of Kandy. You really get what you pay for.

Piscine
Nous avions réservé cet hôtel pour la piscine. Malheureusement elle se trouve près de la réception. De plus, elle n'est pas propre et vous ne pouvez même pas en profiter vraiment car le soleil n'est là que de 10h à 11h30. Le restaurant est plutôt bon mais le choix des plats est restreint car il manquait systématiquement des produits : poisson, crevettes... Et il fallait se rabattre sur d'autres plats !

De kamers op de bovenste verdieping hebben ramen tot de grond met uitzicht op Kandy, super behulpzame staff, vlakbij de stad. Basic inrichting maar schoon dus zeker een aanrader voor weinig geld.

Abgewohntes Hotel, in netter Lage
Anfänglich buchten wir ein günstiges Zimmer im unteren Bereich des Hotels. Dieses war katastrophal. Es roch dermaßen nach Schimmel, dass es kaum auszuhalten war. Das Zimmer war schmutzig und eigentlich nicht vermietbar. Wir buchten darauf hin in die obereste Preiskategorie um und zogen in den obersten Stock. Dieses Zimmer hatte eine fantastische Panorama Verglasung mit wunderschönem Ausblick auf einen Waldhang. In unmittelbarer Nähe toben die Affen rum. Leider gab es keine Handtücher. Das Frühstück war nicht schlecht und wird auf der oben liegenden Terrasse mit schönem Ausblick serviert Leider gingen am zweiten Tag schon die Getränke aus, so dass wir uns Abends selbst was besorgen mussten. Der Missstand wurde am dritten Tag nicht behoben. Alles im Allen, würde ich dieses Hotel nicht wieder besuchen, da es in Kandy für diesen Preis sicherlich was schöneres gibt.

Kandy view hotel
Kandy view var rigtig hyggeligt, rart personale, fin mad. Synes dog godt rengøring/faciliteter kunne være lidt bedre til prisen (vi boede på double deluxe room) - der var ikke daglig rengøring. Vi bestilte en tur gennem hotellet og den kan i hvert fald anbefales, de er gode til at planlægge og servicemindede.

Helt ok ställe för priset...
Rummet var helt ok för priset. Det var rent och personalen var hjälpsamma, det är dock inget lyxhotell. Vi stannade en natt där och det funkade bra för oss. Det är ett bra och prisvärt boende för korta vistelser (1-2 nätter).
