Cheap hotels in Peradeniya

Jeyashanker Sri Lanka

Our stay at Shalom was more than we dreamed or imagined! Everything about this place exceeded our expectations. Conveniently located (less than 2 km from the Peradeniya Railway station), it is central enough to access the main thoroughfares leading to the Peradeniya University, Kandy town etc. Located in a quiet leafy neighbourhood overlooking the Mahaweli river, the beautiful accommodation set in a lovely garden afforded us privacy and was very comfortable. The room was spacious, extremely clean and the large French windows opening on to a balcony had a lovely view of the mountains with the river flowing below. Every amenity was thoughtfully, and I must say, generously provided for by our hosts. Things like bed linen, a washing machine, bottled water, and a kettle with tea/coffee for an early morning cuppa or a night cap were all available. The attached bathroom was clean, had warm water, clean towels and the necessary toiletries. We were also graciously invited to use the adjacent spacious sitting and dining room area, whenever we wished to. The breakfast that was included in the booking deserves a special mention too. Although we opted for an American breakfast, the hosts had quite a delicious spread that included a mouth-watering dhal curry and pol sambol along with the western breakfast of scrambled eggs, sausages, jam, peanut butter with fruit juice. Being big on breakfast, especially when we are on holiday, this meal certainly did not disappoint us. The highlight of our stay was the warmth and hospitality of the host family. Mr. Arasaratnam, Mrs. Arasaratnam and their two young daughters were always warm, friendly and very accommodating, making our short stay there both pleasurable and memorable. Although we were a group of three females (my two daughters and myself), we felt extremely safe and quite at home in this gracious environment.

Thanu was just lovely. My husband was ill and she wanted to help us , to get medicine, offering to take him to the hospital. She could not have been kinder and I am very grateful to her. She took me to see some beautiful temples while he was ill.. we had great meals and breakfasts and our room was spotlessly clean with a nice balcony. Her English is brilliant and we managed to share lots of information about our countries and lives.

Clean, spacious house and pool terrace, in a quiet area, not too far from the green university campus and Peradeniya Botanical Garden. Very good and large Breakfast and Dinner as to my wishes. Manager Siran was courteous in any way and especially made lots of phonecalls to fullfill my wish for a train ticket despite trains were booked out for the next weeks.

Proximity to Peradeniya Railway Station (500m, less than 10min walk) is beneficial for those staying for Ella train boarding. I was unable to reserve a ticket as train was fully booked, arrived at station 5min before boarding, purchased ticket and secured a seat in unreserved carriage, no problems! However, this certainty shouldn’t be the only motivation for staying. A kind greeting by the humble owner, Asanka, was a warm welcome to the property. Respectful, intelligent and intuitive host who creates and maintains a safe and comfortable environment – valued as a solo female traveller. Asanka was more than happy to share his expansive knowledge on all aspects of Sri Lanka and speaks excellent English, a fantastic opportunity to learn. Warmly decorated and well-maintained property. Spotless linen which is professionally cleaned. Large, shared bathroom was clean, towel and soap provided. Asanka also maintains a beautiful garden with various plants and fruits, lovely space to listen to the birds away from busy Kandy city. Location close to stunning Buddhist temple, local eateries, supermarket, Royal Botanical Gardens (with diverse range of flora – and gentle monkeys), hospital, university and public transport. Quick bus (or tuk tuk) ride is easy to access if needing to visit Kandy centre. However, the Peradeniya area had everything required. I was unwell upon arrival, Asanka was caring and compassionate, providing advice to access healthcare, healing medicine and drink in the morning (in addition to breakfast). Breakfast of local cuisine was delicious, cooked by his Aunties. Whilst I didn’t require dinner I noted this could be an option if required. Host made contact upon booking providing valuable advice on options for arrival and was happy answer ongoing questions after the stay. Please support Asanka and the Peradeniya area! And give the beautiful dog ‘Roy’ a big love – he visits in morning with Aunties!

Our stay at De Paris a Kandy was wonderful. The hotel is like a bed & breakfast situated in a beautiful, modern and spacious home. The hosts, Michele and Alexandra, were so kind and welcoming to our family. The breakfasts were a real treat and prepared very fresh and the rooms and bathrooms were well equipped, clean and perfect for our family. The A/C worked well and there was a nice pool we used, as well as several outdoor and common areas. The location is close to the botanical gardens and about a 10-15 minute tuk-tuk ride from the center of Kandy (still close enough to order take-out or delivery!).
