Very nice house with beautiful little garden. The room is furnished with great taste, the garden is full of flowers. The family is super nice and friendly, they treated my daughter as their own. They also organize cooking classes, which I absolutely recommend: it is taking place in an authentic kitchen with traditional utensilies, and is the owner's mom who teaches you about spices, local vegetables, and how to cook some very tasty Sri Lankan meal. She is great! Breakfast is an amazing selection of local dishes, and it's plenty. Our host was also very nice, ready to help with anything, explaining about culture and what to see in Kandy. He helped with our laundry, organized for us tuktuk to the citiy, and took us to the train station when we were leaving. The whole family was very nice and attentive to our every need. The location is outside of Kandy, a bit far from the center, but because of this it is very quiet, and it's surrounded by nature. I highly recommend it! Even if you don't stay here, try the cooking class!

Nita and her mother are so friendly, they made us feel like staying at home. we had a cooking night together, and we made the transitional sri lankan dish (they were sooo yummy, especially the 7 veggies curry) and coconut rotis. Nita’s daughter is very supportive when we need some help for communication. we really enjoy our stay!!!;) thank you Nita for the great hospitality!! oh, the view from the room is so nice, and the breakfast was so delicious too! ;)

A little oasis hidden in a great location in Kandy. Lovely room next to the pool. Welcoming and helpful host who arranged for us a transfer to Ella last minute and tuk tuk trips within Kandy as we needed them. Tasty breakfast to top it all! What a great address, warmly recommend <3

We only stayed for one night but we immediately felt so welcome as soon as we entered the house. The family is super kind and does everything for you to enjoy your stay. They cooked the most amazing and authentic dinner for us and we even got a ride the next morning very early for us to be able to catch our train! Thanks to everyone <3

We were happy to find and stay at this place. It's a family small hotel with very good location at the hills of Kandy. It's 15 min walk to the city center, but if you are not walk lover you can take a tuk tuk for a dollar or two. Spectacular view from a very big terrace and far away from the city jungle and noise. Very nice room, well furnished and equipped with all you might need for your short stay. Air conditioner, kettle, hair dryer as well. They offer coffee, tea and water as a compliment in the room and we highly appreciate it. The bath is small but very clean. The breakfast - oh my God. Rich and tasty. We couldn't ate all they had prepared for us. We highly recommend this place. Thank you.
