We spent two weeks there in April 2013. It's near the Kandy Lake and Temple of the Tooth, very convenient to travel around. The open-air canteen was a fantastic place to relax and chat. Food was very good. We found the staff really friendly and the days there extremely memorable. Will go there in the future.

I can only say I agree with all the negative comments .The owners are pleasant and bright why don't they accept the criticisms and fix this potentially very good hotel? The position is good ,the restaurant area is great they have a good base to work from.

Standard rooms are spacious but without great views. The washbasin in the toilet opens in the bath area which makes a nasty experience. Lousy towels and almost nil toiletries in wash room. Hot water all the time. Small conventional TV doesn't contain remote and very few channels. Dim lighting makes you feel very uncomfortable at night. AC effective, comfortable beds... More

Good: restaurant (rooftop); views of the city but not the lake. Location quite decent, about 10 mins walk from the eastern edge of the lake which means 30 mins from city centre. Food okay, breakfast choices are good for the price. Staff is very helpful. Mixed/disappointing: quality of the Standard rooms and the wider maintenance level. TV and AC is... More

Staff and owener is very very friendly and helpful. The view of the open air restaurant is super nice, you are able to see groups of monkeys on the nearby trees everyday which is very intersting.

This is a budget hotel, little outside of town crowd at the far end corner of the Kandy lake as knwon to most people. However, it is not exactly located at the kandy lake side, you need to walk/drive few minutes uphill to reach the hotel. Its surrounded by greenary and seems good when you look for value of money....
