    Very spacious room - with a comfortable bed. Shower with warm water. It is a little hotel (5 rooms), a bit out of the city center... well situated on the hillside, with a very nice view (especially for sunset!). The owner is very kind and helpful - he offers Tuk Tuk - transport from and to the city and also very nice tours, for sightseeing around. On the top is an open terrace, where you can have breakfast or dinner (need to order ca.1h in advance) that you can choose from the menu! A good place to stay!

    Perfect location, just 20mins away from Kandy city where Lord Buddha's tooth relic is preserved at the Kandy Temple, the lake, city center etc. Impeccably clean and tidy accommodations, coupled with the warm hospitality of the manager's welcoming smile and mouthwatering Sri Lankan cuisine. This is a perfect choice for couples, families, or even solo travelers seeking a memorable retreat.

    Perfect location on the lake away from hectic kandy city center (only 10 minutes by tuk tuk which the host arranged for us at a very good price) we saw many exotic birds and monkeys. The room is very clean and has all necessities. We did the cooking class on site which was exceptional. The food was AMAIZING. Breakfast (more like brunch- there was quote a lot of food) consisted of traditional food that was prepared in front of you.

    Views! Views! Views! Radisson Hotel in Kandy has some of the most spectacular views of the city and the sunsets were amazing from the rooftop pool! The long area around the pool is great and drinks can be served directly to your sunbed. Food was good and perfect for some day time snacks. Staff were friendly and accommodating when needing to arrange transport, laundry etc.

    Amazing views and sunset from rooftop pool, short walk downhill to good restaurants in town if you don’t want to use the hotel kitchen. Feels very new and clean, staff very friendly and helpful, thank you.

    We booked just a regular twin room without any view, but guys on the reception desk proposed us free upgrade, so we had the great view on the city and the lake. That was nice! :) The room was calm and clean, with comfy beds (and blankets not just sheets!). The stuff was very kind and helpful, the swimming pool on the rooftop is very nice when you're not on a seaside. Location is also good, nearby the main attractions.
