Set in Peradeniya and only 1.1 km from Kandy Royal Botanic Gardens, Shalom offers accommodation with mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking. With river views, this accommodation features a balcony. The property is non-smoking and is situated 5.9 km from Kandy railway station.

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.

We had the Sri Lankan breakfast each morning which was the perfect start to the day. The location is just right, nice and quiet but an easy walk into town and to the lake. Everyone was very friendly and helpful, especially Stuart! Thanks again guys!

The owner is such an easy guy to get along with. He has a great sense of humor. Breakfast everyday was different and so delicious! He took me on a tour to the tea factory, an artist studio, a village, and an Ayuverdic spa. He ended our tour with a treat (baked goods and homemade biryani) when I finished my massage. He also offered to give a tour of the Buddhist temples. This hostel is extremely close to the train station and easy to access Royal Botanical Garden by bus. Even the complimentary soap here smells amazing. I really enjoyed my stay at this hostel and I've made a wonderful lifelong friend. I would recommend for solo travellers especially because of the delicious free breakfast and the activities that the host has planned.

    The staff were excellent and so helpful. The cafe downstairs had very tasty food and the location of the hotel was terrific, in short walking distance everywhere you’d like to see in downtown Kandy. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable, and we had a great stay.

    Host was very welcoming. Breakfast was excellent. Room was clean. Location is central but not central enough to walk to the center easily but it's just the right distance to be out of the busy center. Our host arranged a great driver (actually the cheapest we had) for us to continue our journey.

    We had a great time! We upgrade our budget room for a deluxe house, much better! The room was spacious, clean, as for the bathroom. The location is perfect! Close to the city but still really calm and quiet inside. You can walk in the city , close to train station and different markets . The staff is really kind and helpful. We love our breakfast experience.

    We were quite sceptical when we made the booking as it was too good to be true. But when we got there it most certainly exceeded our expectations. Great value for money. Comfortable accommodation and very clean. Went above and beyond to organize our meals for the following day as we were leaving early. Great location too. Would strongly recommend this place
