Featuring mountain views, Ambuluwawa View Inn offers accommodation with terrace, around 17 km from Kandy Royal Botanic Gardens. There is an on-site restaurant, plus free private parking and free WiFi are available. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available.

We LOVED our stay here! The hosts are among the friendliest hosts we’ve ever had and the accommodation is perfect for going to Ambuluwawa Tower. Room was clean, spacious and very comfortable with perfect Wi-Fi and consistent hot water. We ate breakfast and dinner here every day and we loved each meal we had… Try the curry, it’s delicious! To get to the tower, the hosts took us in their TukTuk, let us explore and then took us back to the accommodation for a very fair price. We will definitely be recommending this accommodation to our friends that come to Sri Lanka… We originally only booked 2 nights but ended up extending it to 4 nights due to the comfort. Exceptional stay 👍🏻

The room is something special and the pool area, wow! Great view. The staff are great very kind! Best view and best restaurant in sri lanka (we are at the end of our vacation after 20 days). I really recommend the garlic rice and Chilli chicken 😅 we enjoyed the hotel facilities and next morning had a ride to ambuluwawa tower (30 minutes).

Nothing short of exceptional! A scenic route to the hotel and a scenic location! Was met by the hotel managers and owner with respect and kindness and can not fault their customer service. The rooms were spacious for 2 people and there were plenty of area to walk around to enjoy the garden, pool, and the view of the mountains. Breakfast was delicious and dinner was sensational from the rooftop balcony. The perfect quiet place to stay if you're travelling to Kandy as the drive from the hotel is under 30 minutes.

    We were welcomed by the lovely couple with juice and new years treats. The room was very clean, with a comfortable bed and hot shower in the bathroom. We did a cooking course there and it was very interesting and resulted in the best meal so far in 10 days Sri Lanka. Safe choice in Gampola!

    The owners were very nice, they helped us in trouble when we had a flat tire and needed to arrange a train ticket. The food was excellent. Everything was negotiable. Great location for a trip to the tower. The house was very clean and the room equipment was good, we used the fan on warm days. There is a train station and lots of shops nearby. The whole stay was absolutely great.
