A reasonably priced hotel. Staff were helpful and kind. From the main road to the hotel roads are narrow and winding, understandably since Kandy is a hill country city.

Awful smell in bathroom

This hotel was a disappointment after the great reviews that I read. On arriving in our room (103), the smell from the bathroom was disgusting. The bellboy actually flushed the toilet as soon as he came into our room. The bathroom had already been cleaned, and had a paper wrapped around the toilet claiming it was sanitized. I asked a member of the staff to come to ‘smell’ the bathroom. They agreed it was disgusting and suggested they put in a ‘fragrance’. There was no amount of fragrance, or spraying that would disguise the smell. There is something very wrong with their drains. I asked to be moved to a new room (something I have never done in my travels). Upon leaving the next morning, you could already smell the bathroom stench in our new room (203). I hope the hotel fixes their drainage problems, as the views are amazing.

丘の上の素敵なブティックホテルに

大きな古い洋館を改装したようなこじんまりとしたホテル。丘の上なので一度入ったらまた出るのは面倒かも。 中は新しくいたる所にあるモダンな絵柄の絵が魅力。朝食は向かいの斜面が見渡せる外で食べる。おしゃれにパンとフルーツが出てきました。 水周りはまあまあ。もう一歩頑張れる。

選択の失敗

駅からの交通手段はタクシーか３輪バイクだが皆嫌がる、理由は狭い山道の為。 結果料金がたかくなる。 シャワーの水圧が低いので濡れる程度、ホテル代が高いのでコストパフォーマンスは 悪い、朝食もお粗末、10点評価で5ですね。

Good hotel, but bring earplugs

We call it "The Barking Dog Hotel". Good little (14 room) hotel, on the side of a hill with a lovely view of Kandy and the lake. 5 minute tuk-tuk ride (300 LKR) to downtown. As everyone else mentions, there are noisy stray dogs outside that bark loudly for most of the night. We knew about this, so we brought earplugs and enjoyed our stay. To get back to the hotel, make sure you have the hotel phone number or business card, because some tuk-tuk drivers didn't know it and had to phone the hotel for directions. No alcohol license, but a tuk-tuk can deliver to the hotel.

Perfect for our one night stay

we stayed here for one night during our travels around Sri Lanka, we had a room on the end with a huge balcony that went all around the room so we could sit out and admire all the views. The service here was excellent, with very friendly staff. We had lunch and breakfast here and both were excellent. I would have preferred a room with blackout curtains as I woke very early to a bright room. The bathroom was clean but had a damp smell about it.
