The place not to be. I stayed there on the 29th January 2010 and fortunately only for one night. The standards were way below the five star hotel standards and in fact the authorities should downgrade this hotel. Not only that this hotel is of very low standards it is very dangerous too. The door of the closet fell on... more

We stayed for 10 nights in 2009 and loved the place. The staff were very friendly especially the rooms boys. There ws one guy in the bar who was a little bit rude and as soon as he found out were giving out tips on the night he suddenly became friendly-he didn't get a tip. The rest of the staff... more

The rooms are spacious, The food delicious. I would recommend it anytime. more

It was nice hotel till wedding party arrived then they were very messy using the hotel corridors and pushing everyone else aside. Fat bride occupying the whole hotel and guests had to be accomodated at another eating area. We booked the hotel because they had garden dinning but we were sent to eat in a inside area without any view... more

My stay at Mahaweli Reach ruined my year end holiday. The restaurant staff took 30 mins to arrange a table. Rude staff and not organised except for the guy who finally arranged a table. I met a friend of mine at the hotel and he had gone through the same experience. I'm a frequent traveler to Kandy and I stay... more

I stayed at the Mahaveli Reach , Kandy with women friends in July 2009 for two nights. The location on the river was great. The rooms were of a large size, good upkeep and a balcony. There was a good swimming pool and an excellent breakfast spread included in the price. The staff were friendly and willing to help and... more

I strongly discourage anyone who wants to spend a nice time in Kandy to stay in this bad hotel. The hotel is too old and is not well maintained. The hotel has one restaurant and the food is very average. Swimming pool is very badly located. I tried the spa, and I had a massage, and I swear to God,... more

The hotel is ok, but the position is so wrong! When your driver leaves you at the hotel, you can only go to bed, there is no entertainment, you can't go anywhere because the street is bampy, no tuk-tuks, there is no walking path... My suggestion is to find some hotel closer to Kandy. more

Location is not great, nothing nearby of any interest or use.. except the river that brings more mosquitos. The bathroom particularly badly maintained though clean. Breakfast is good though with very limited variety. Difficult to get taxi at a reasonable cost, as hotel being at an isolated place. Service is very good and staff is always happy and quick to... more
