At the hostel, every room has a desk, bed linen and a balcony with a garden view. With a private bathroom equipped with a shower and slippers, rooms at Barefoot Inn Kandy also provide guests with a mountain view. The units at the accommodation feature air conditioning and a safety deposit box. Please do yourself a favour and stay at this guesthouse, it’s genuinely one of the best I’ve ever been to. It feels more like an in-vogue boutique hotel or your ‘cool’ aunt’s place. The location is perfect as it’s only a 5-minute tuk tuk or a leisurely 20-minute stroll into town but importantly you’re able to escape the chaos, dust and noise of Kandy. The living space, bedroom and bathroom are all spacious and clean, and the design and furniture in the space is amazing! What really stands out about this place though is the host. Jeevani feels like more of a friend than a host and some of my favourite memories of Kandy will be the conversations I had with her. She’s extremely kind and caring and has a lot of wisdom and life experience to share. Make sure you make time to have a conversation with her!

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 host was very welcoming and provided us with lots of great suggestions on where to eat in the Kandy area. The room and bathroom facilities were exceptionally clean and overall the hostel is positioned in a great location, only a 10 min walk from the station and 15 mins walk from Kandy Lake
Great location and amazing views over Kandy from the rooftop pool. It was everything you'd expect from a luxury hotel (we are normally budget travellers but splurged for a couple of nights!) Breakfast was exceptional, a full buffet/help yourself to as much as you want - the french toast was a particular highlight! The staff were also extremely helpful and quick with everything.
The staff very helpful and guide me greatly, the beds super clean and fortunately not bunk beds. The area of the hostel feels like your own home. Highly recommend
The best hostel I have been so far. Rooms are clean and really spacious, the same goes for the shared toilets and showers. Staff is incredibly amazing and always keen to help you. Food also really nice. Highly recommend
It's a very nice place to stay, quiet and peaceful. Located on a green hill with a great view of the valley. The breakfast was amazing, one of the best hostel's breakfasts so far. I do recommend this place.
Good hostel to meet new people. Cooking together is fun and we had a nice dinner.
I met some nice backpackers in the hostel by the lake. When I wanted to extend my stay and switch to a private room in the hostel on the hill, they got me a tuktuk to move from one to the other. They helped me find a scooter to rent and gave me recommendations on taking the train towards ella. When I wanted to store my luggage for a few days they arranged that as well. Such friendly and helpful people. And nice rooms as well.
Quite contradictory impression overall. Cant say Ll iss good or it is bad experience. We could change room to more spacious and with access to fresh air on the second day. Location quite centered Wardrobe and mirrors Good internet, one of the best we had across other hotels Polite host Worth money it cost i think so really cheap/simple. Do not expect some luxury for this budget which is normal. Reminds more hostel quality than hotel. Location was shared via google map and advise where to get off the bus to save time. This was cool
Breakfast and dinner were included in the price! Also the owner invites all the guests to a cookery lesson in the evening to learn about Sri Lankan food and meet the other guests. They also had a lovely pool which was a great bonus when your in the jungle setting. This is a great backpackers budget hostel with lovely friendly staff.
