This was my second trip to Sri Lanka and i feel so at home here!! Stayed at the Kandy View for 2 weeks whilst visiting friends in Sri Lanka and had the most amazing time. The owner Kay is a fantastic host and went out of his way to make my stay thoroughly enjoyable, even taking me out to the... more

Had a great stay at this hotel. The Owner (Kay) was a superb host. Cost of trips ect were quoted in £ and we were given an excellent exchange rate (better than a money changer). Lots of sound information was given to us about Sri Lanka. The food was superb and Kay let us try a wide range of Sri... more

Stayed here for one night to see the Perahera in Kandy and was not impressed with the standard of cleanliness. Whilst the hotel staff were absolutely lovely and the food good, the rooms were not. There was a bottle of water and glasses on the dresser for us but the water bottle was open an half empty! we didnt drink... more

This hotel is in a lovely elevated spot about 10 minutes walk downhill to the lake. Tuk tuk back costs little. Kanchana the owner will happily arrange trips to tea plantation, hill country, elephant orphanage and booked us seats in the observation car for the Kandy Colombo train ride (something you can't do online). Rooms represent value for money and... more

I was in this beautiful place for 2 days, before traveling to the old cities. The roof restaurant has an amazing view. The whole staff was particularly kind and attentive, especially the receptionist and the director, Mr Kanchana. The rooms are spacious and don't lack of anything, also the food is great. It's easy to reach from there the main... more

We stayed 3 nights in Kandy View Hotel and absolutely enjoyed our stay there. The rooms are spacious, clean and good value for money. Nice restaurant (try the Kandy View Rice & Curry !) on the roof top with a good view, though you can not see the lake but it is close to the city centre. Very friendly and... more

I stayed in this hotel for one night only, as I was due to go to another part of the island the following morning. There was a A/C unit in the room, but the remote control was (purposefully) missing, so I couldn't use it. At some point in time, there must have been a ceiling fan, but it was missing... more

I can only go by my personal experience of this hotel which I booked over the internet, I arrived at the bus station mid afternoon after a hot bus ride down from Nuwara Eliya and got a Tuk Tuk (well the driver got me first) rather than phone for a free pick I thought it was easier, first please use... more

We stayed at the Kandy View Hotel during a recent 3 week holiday in Sri Lanka. The hotel was fairly basic but clean and safe, and excellent value for money. The breakfast was good, as was the rice and curry, and the view from the restaurant is great. However, the real gem of this hotel is its owner, Kanchana. During... more
