Good clean property with decent air con, and very helpful staff. Great location in Kandy close to main attractions. Quality of hotel quite basic but good given the budget price, didn’t have any food so can’t comment on this. Would go back again especially if wanting a more budget option in Kandy.

This hotel is well situated in the city but is Spartan in the extreme. Literally one tiny bar of soap. Tired and damaged fittings and soft coverings. Wifi dial-up speeds.

Service minded staff, great breakfast

Perfect place to stay while in Kandy for two nights. We’re a couple from Sweden staying in Kandy for a couple of nights before heading to Ella. Ceyloni staff were very friendly and service minded which made our stay great. Breakfast was also great with local dishes as well as omelette, fruits etc. Good sized rooms (normal) with a balcony. And good restaurants within 1-5 minutes walking. All in all there’s nothing at all to complain about.

A good value hotel; clean and modern within the city centre yet quiet within the rooms. The staff were exceptional and very polite. On the last day they offered us complimentary breakfast as we had booked 3 nights with them, which was a credit to how kind Sri Lankan people are.

Very good value

Very good value for money. English is spoken. Clean and new room, air conditioning working very well. Helpful staff, the younger guy helped us orginise the taxi to next destination and suggested couple of good stops on the way and the best driver we had during our 2-week trip in Sri Lanka. The neighbourhood is nothing special, but is central enough and therefore close to everything important. I would happily go back.

Fantastic service and very comfortable room!!

Great service at Ceyloni City Hotel!! They managed to find me a reserved train ticket to Ella for the day after I arrived (which I had tried to order online before my trip but was told they were all sold out). The room was very clean and comfortable, with excellent air conditioning. Bathroom was also clean and modern. And breakfast was great too. Location was very convenient - a short walk to the Temple of the Tooth, the lake and the Clock Tower bus station.

Great stay in kandy

Nice breakfast (eggs coffee toast fruit), a bit of road noise, but that is expected as it is a busy city, good service, very genuine employees, ice cold A/C, English TV choices, decent wifi, overall a great stay.
