Picturesque location with great views

Past guests of this hotel praise the views to be savoured from the outdoor terrace and shared parts of the establishment, as well as from the private balconies attached to their rooms. No matter whether the vista is of Kandy Lake, the city of Kandy or the surrounding forest of Udawatta Kelle Sanctuary, reviewers agree this was one of the highlights of what is overall a wonderful hotel.

positive:

Clean, tasteful rooms
