• Bethel Rest is located in a tropical, green and calm area of Hanthana Kandy. Free WiFi access is available in the entire property.

• It is located just 1 km from the famous Ceylon Tea Museum and it’s a 10 minutes’ drive away from the popular Temple of Tooth Relic including Bogambara Stadium, Kandy railway station and Kandy City Center Shopping Mall. It is a beautiful house with wonderful owners who have surrounded us with warmth and care. Excellent location on a mountain near a forest, clean air and amazing views of the city. All our wishes were fulfilled, the room is very spacious and clean, with a balcony and a seating area. The house has a very beautiful interior with a lot of interesting antiques. We recommend staying here if you want to visit Kandy.

Built in an ancient Colonial-period Bungalow, The Elephant Stables is a beautiful property overlooking Kandy’s lush greenery. It welcomes guests with an outdoor swimming pool and cosy guestrooms.

This peaceful hotel is located within 4 km from Kandy Railway Station. Kandy City Centre and the popular Temple of Tooth Relic is only 2 km away while Bandaranaike International Airport is 103 km away. One of the most enchanting places on earth! Nihal took exceptional care of us from the very first moment. Everyone was incredibly friendly, and we felt warmly welcomed. The property, the garden, and the pool are truly magical. We enjoyed lunch and breakfast, and both meals were absolutely delicious. The chef Idika came personally to check in to ensure everything was to our satisfaction. The location is in Kandy, just a five-minute tuk-tuk ride from the city centre. The hotel also kindly offered to drive us back and forth. Overall, a five-star-plus experience.

Delicious food and extremely cozy. Very clean and nice staff.

Situated in the hill capital of Kandy in Sri Lanka's central highlands, the Radisson Hotel Kandy is a modern hotel that features a rooftop pool, meeting room, fitness center, and rooftop lounge & bar. The rooms are designed to provide a contemporary yet comfortable living space, complete with a 40-inch LED TV, complimentary Wi-Fi, work desk, mini-bar, and tea/coffee making facilities. The spacious bathrooms come with a rain shower, complimentary toiletries, and a hairdryer. The level of detail of all members of staff was nothing like I experienced in other stays. The hotel is very central walkable to most places and the staff are happy to guide you with any queries. Breakfast had a good spread of local and western food and the views from my room was amazing.

Located in Kandy, 3.3 km from Kandy railway station, Hotel Kandyan View ''Free pickup from Kandy city'' provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a shared lounge. This 3-star hotel offers a terrace. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi. I would like to mention that, firstly, I am thankful to the hotel host for arranging transport for me from the city center to the hotel for free. Secondly, they created good conditions in the hotel. There is a good swimming pool where you can rest comfortably. All the furniture is clean and new. Especially my room, which was cleaned every day. Even though the hotel is a bit far from the center, you can get there with a tuk-tuk driver named Arush. He is a good man and offers very reasonable prices to get to the city. Finally, I want to thank a man named Koan, if I am not mistaken, who works at the hotel. He is a good person who answered all my questions patiently and arranged a good breakfast every day, which made my day better

Settle Inn Tourist Lodge is situated in a semi-rural setting just 1 km from Kandy City and the Temple of Tooth Relic. It houses a restaurant and offers complimentary WiFi access and private parking.

The property is a 15-minute drive from the Royal Botanical Gardens, Peradeniya. Kandy railway and bus stations are about 1 km away, while The Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage is 40 km away. It is 800 metres away from Kandyan Cultural Centre and 5 km from the Tea Museum. We had two rooms. In one room, we had a 4 year old. There was no charge for him, but an extra bed was provided. Rooms were super clean. Very nice upgraded bathrooms. The host was so helpful, friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was good...standard fare with a nice fruit plate. The location was great. We walked to town along the lake. For families, there is a big playground right at the bottom of the hill, on the way to the lake and town.
