Adequate. Bathroom really stank of ? Urine smell Aircon worked, but was struggling. Thin sheets, no blankets and ?? Bed bugs- very itchy in the morning. vast nothing to rave about. Did the job of being in town, quiet and a bed. But pricey for what it was. Two star at best.

When I first heard reviews from other fellow travellers that the hotel looked really shabby from the outside, I started having second thoughts about staying at this hotel. However, I was glad that I did. The hotel was near to all the major attractions that Kandy has to offer (at least in the town). It was 5 minutes walk away... More

I am sure there are better hotels in Kandy than this one, but as the old saying goes don't judge a book by it's cover. From the outside, the hotel looks shabby and run down and in desperate need of repair. While the inside is hardly the Ritz, we found it to be very welcoming with a pleasant restaurant with... More

I travelled around Sri Lanka for a few weeks and stayed in several places, this hotel was my favourite. It is very centrally located in the town centre and about 15 mins walk from the bus and train stations. The staff are very friendly and the big old rooms a bit worn but comfortable. There is a mini bar, TV... More

Stayed here in Feb 12 on a stopover. Right in the centre of town so ideal for exploring Kandy. Service was good with friendly staff. The restaurant was basic with a buffet service. Food was filling if not tasteful. Rooms were dated but the bed very comfortable. The bathroom was….the darkest and most depressing bathroom I’ve ever been in. Great... More

In a busy shoppingstreet, a stonethrow away from the lake is an ugly building, with limited parking space. Inside is a bit old, but it feels good. Friendly staff. Adequate rooms for the price. Our bed was good, room was clean, shower OK. What more do you need ? Restaurant a bit canteenlike, friendly staff, but little English. Good food... More

We only stayed 2 nights at Casamara which is right next to the temple. Has a pool but didn't use it. The room was clean with a comfy bed and a nice bathroom. The only nuisance were smoking guests in the hallway, but the receptionist was swift to sort it out. The breakfast was buffet style with plenty of choice,... More
