The Kandy House

It was really an arcane and quiet location where you can enjoy your holiday almost thrillingly. Superb customer services provided by Rohan. We were extremely satisfied with the food variety and it's the best place we've ever stayed in. Recommended without any hesitation for any country person as we are UK citizens with dual nationality.

Loved the service and ambiance few years back. Not sure who is the gentleman who picks up the phone. He should be taught the difference between a casual conversation and a work related call. My question was what if the guest arrives after 2.30pm? His response was then we don’t serve lunch. There’s no “ sorry “ included in his response. Lankan hotels lack the fact that they survive due to customers.

Tried calling the hotel - No response. Went to the hotel and gates were locked and no one to answer. Read the great reviews went there and was disappointed. I saw the booking. Com was offering rooms - but wonder how they can when the hotel is shut.

This restored 200 year old residence was a lovely surprise. As you drive from the city up to the gates, you leave the noise and bustle behind and enter a beautiful sanctuary, one surrounded by beautiful trees, flowers, lawns, a sizable pool tucked away in the back garden. We wished we could have stayed more than one night. The staff was attentive and nice and the food was excellent. The room was nice, had what one needed. Clearly photogenic as a
Couple were having their wedding photos taken onsite when we arrived.

We stayed here one night for our one year anniversary of our marriage. Absolutely loved the architecture and the nature surrounding us.
In the night, I enjoyed listening to numerous layers of sounds and voices of animals and insects.
Nice getaway from busy and noisy Colombo life.

Staff was nice and friendly, dinner was okay, one big disappointment was that we couldn’t get hot water for our bathtub the whole night. Anniversary cake was too sugary, but normally this is what you get in Sri Lanka…

Given the level of food and the fact that we couldn’t have the hot bath, I found the price is a bit too high. Nevertheless the building itself is magnificent.

Magnificent old house. Loving restored. A comfortable old home with original furniture. Large comfy bed, fabulous lush tropical gardens. Wonderful food particularly the lovely fresh breakfasts and juices. The owner and manager were very welcoming. We had to cut our stay short because of the riots very dissapointing. Our butler was really lovely, laid our breakfast out on our terrace over looking the gardens. Heaven on earth. Thankyou

Such a beautiful old governors house, approx 200years old. Top class food and very well looked after by the staff. Very nice surroundings, and swimming pool at your disposal. Would recommend a visit here.

We stayed here during our honeymoon and we had a wonderful time, and wished we could have stayed longer. The room and the hotel was beautifully decorated and felt very authentic. The gardens were beautiful, and the pool was large and very tranquil. The garden chairs were perfect for a cocktail whilst the sun went down. Dinner was delicious and very generously portioned. The staff were very attentive and gave us a bottle of bubbles for our honeymoon, and made us feel very special.

A relic of empire with manicured lawns. Impeccable service and great food a very special place. S must particularly for special occasions!

Fantastic food and a fantastic experience! Must must go here! Calamari n watermelon salad as well as the Para fish were simply superb! Best hospitality in Kandy for sure compared to our other experiences

Great location, food and service! Value for money! There is only the possibility of curry & rice menu which is superb!

One of the Amazing hotel that i stayed when visiting Sri Lanka. Outstanding architecture with stunning view, from the father of the Asia modern architect, Geoffrey Bawa.

Been in The Kandy House Hotel on 2015, while visiting Sri Lanka with my friends.
Super friendly staff, awesome facilities, delicious breakfast.

The space are so homey & romantic. Located in one of the beautiful town i ever visited. Sure will comeback to stay here soon, when the pandemic is over.

My third stay and it was wonderful as always! The atmosphere so restful, There is tranquility in every space. Delicious food and excellent service.

The true last feel of the Srilankan Raj, a grand homely atmosphere with personal service, where you could stay forever.

The staff are so friendly and attentive, the food was great. It's a beautiful, lovingly restored building in a quiet location

Amazing boutique hotel with great service. Cool rooms. Ask for the local massage therapist. The old man does wonders.

Colonial charm with modern amenities in a beautiful and relaxing environment. First class service and fine dining.

We came for lunch. Beautiful tranquil setting and great service. Mostly western food but some curry options, everything was delicious. Would love to return and stay in hotel next time.

Traumhaftes altes Herrenhaus und absolute Ruhe in der Natur. Etwas abseits des Zentrums (ca. 20 Minuten mit Tuk-Tuk) auf einem Hang gelegen. Küche ist erstklassig und Preis/Leistung stimmt.

Fantastic! Very beautiful hotel! We only had dinner here but the atmosphere was amazing and the service was flawless.
