Hotel Yo reviews
17Avoid this hotel at all costs – it's filthy, poorly managed, and a complete rip-off. The rooms reek of mold, the furniture is grimy, and the cleanliness is non-existent unless you beg for it. Breakfast is a joke, ending way too early, and the location is a nightmare to reach, especially with luggage. Noise pollution is rampant, and the manager couldn't care less about your experience. Save yourself the trouble and find accommodation elsewhere – Kandy isn't worth the hype, and this hotel certainly isn't helping its case.
Fabulous place to stay in Kandy - great location, nice places nearby to eat and drink. Ask them for the Sri Lankan breakfast! It was the best food we ate in all Sri Lanka and better than the western food.
Nice hotel with a good, walking distance to the center of Kandy. We had booked the actually pretty chalet. Unfortunately, it was very noisy here due to the main street running nearby and we were given another room in the main building at our request without any problems. The breakfast was rather simple, but the staff was friendly.
Really lovely hotel, we were greeted with the key ready and all check in documents prepared when we arrived. The room was spacious and clean, with a nice shower and good hot water.
The balcony was a nice area to sit and have a drink, overlooking Kandy Lake - at night it was lit up nicely.
The walk down to the main road is okay, however the hill means making it back up is a little effort - however a tuktuk can get you up no issues. We didn't have dinner at the restaurant, however breakfast was good - although limited vegetarian options.
Nice view and the center of Kandy is within walking distance, but that is the only plus point of the hotel. The rooms hardly correspond to the pictures on the internet, and the breakfast was also a bit of a disappointment. Okay for one night.
This is a very bad hotel. Over booking arranged us to another bad hotel. The toilet was so dirty that we dared not use it. The room smelled very strange. My feet were bitten by fleas for more than 20 packs. I booked a lake You can't see the lake, please read the reviews, they are repeat offenders~ After over booking, they will move you to another bad hotel, and the whole trip will be ruined by him.
The hotel is on a rather steep hill. Kandy has a lot of traffic but is a quiet location.
The location is good and convenient to the center of Kandy, which can be reached in about 20 minutes on foot.
Freshly baked omelets are served for breakfast.
Das Hotel ist völlig in Ordnung. Geräumige Zimmer, großes Badezimmer. Alles ist sauber. Mitarbeiter sehr freundlich. Preis günstig.
Very nice hotel. We stayed here for two nights. Room including all what you need: hair drier, tv, fridge, big size bed, internet etc. Hotel stuff are very professional and kindly. Recommend.
Clean, and quite hotel. It's little bit away from the city centre but still within walking distance. It's on a bit of a hill, and I was on the top floor. The view is amazing.
We had the top room with a private balcony and a perfect view of the lake and its surroundings. The breakfast was good and the stuff very kindly. As it's a bit on the hill you have to walk a little bit to the city center but we really liked the location and enjoyed the nice walk and quiet surroundings.
Service of the staff and breakfast are beyond expectations! Perfect location and comfy rooms.
Dirty room, towels, cold and untasty dinner, not very comunicative and friendly workers. Old hotel and very very small.
Had an Excellent customer service and we enjoyed the stay a lot rooms are very clean as well as the bathrooms well recommended
Enjoyed the stay at the Chalet. Even during the pandemic, the service was excellent with limited staff. Clean room, linen and the utensils ensures a health and safety environment amidst this pandemic.
Greenery elevated location provides an breathtaking relaxation. Sri Lankan breakfast was delicious and well served.
Unfortunately totally overpriced for what was offered. I booked 3 nights in the chalet. It is very nicely furnished and has everything you need. Unfortunately it is very bad soundproofed! If you are sensitive to noise, it is better not to overnight here. I had heard dog barking and all other noises all night long and had to help out with ear plugs.
Besides, my room was not cleaned on all days. When asked on the day of departure, it was said that only the day before last was not cleaned due to a change of staff. But I could not perceive any cleaning at all. The bed was never made, no fresh towels, no fresh water, no emptying of the trash cans.
I only got water in the morning on request before I left for my day trips.
The breakfast with 8$ was totally overpriced. There was toast with butter and jam. On request there were eggs or cornflakes. Small nature yogurt. Coffee pots were empty. Tea and hot water available. Fruits were always the same and not very fresh. If you don't eat eggs and yoghurt, not much was left to eat. 8$?
I ordered dinner at the hotel twice. Unfortunately, many dishes from the menu were not available and I always had to choose from alternatives. Unfortunately the prices were also very expensive (~11$ per evening).
Laundry service was also not available ("unfortunately not today", but there was no alternative offered either).
Staff was generally friendly and helpful.
