Castle Hill is beautiful home with great view, but I found it overpriced for what we experienced. Home could be gorgeous with some updating and the staff could be more friendly and helpful. I have no specific complaints, but I just didn't enjoy my stay. There is definitely a lot of potential and for the price, the experience should be... More

This is in such a great location set up in the hills. You're a 5-10 minute walk from Kandy Lake or a 2 minute by tuk tuk. Beautiful gardens which are very well maintained stretching out the front of the property just heighten the visual experience. There are 4 enormous bedrooms. The 2 bedrooms on either side at the front... More

Castle Hill Guest House is in an old family home with colonial atmosphere situated in beautiful gardens offering unbeatable views over Kandy lake, looking down onto the temple. You are well above the hustle and bustle of the town and you can hear the monks chant during their prayers. Still, you are within easy walking distance of the centre. The... More

This is a great place to stay – we spent three nights here at the start of our two week tour of Sri Lanka and it was a time that will be impossible to forget. The house is set in beautiful peaceful gardens in an incredible spot up above the hustle and bustle of Kandy with views over the lake... More

We were supposed to stay here for two nights in December. We had booked two rooms, one for the in-laws (a double) and one for us to stay in with the kids (triple). The location is fantastic, and Priyantak the caretaker manager was really sweet and helpful. Although the rooms looked a little dated and there were practically no lights... More

Staying in Castle Hill, you may believe you came to visit your ceylonese cousins in the 30's. When we came, we had 3 of the 4 rooms and no other guest: the very kind staff made us believe we were at home! we enjoyed the living room, played piano... Castle Hill villa and story helps you to learn about Sri... More

Rather mixed impressions of castle hill. On the one hand the room was badly furnish, the bathroom was dark and the service was mediocre. On the other hand a stunning location over looking the lake in Kandy, wonderful 1920's architecture and a beautiful garden. On the whole a memorable place to stay. BTW our driver was not at all keen... More

Well, the house is great. The look is great. The stuff doesn`t speak English- no help at all. The rooms were again not clean for europien standart and the towels smells badly. The breakfast is not very good and it is extra. This guesthouse is much too expensive for what you get. Sorry- you are still in Sro Lanka, even... More
