This is a truly magnificent place to stay, a perfect blend of opposites. It’s right in the centre of Kandy, a short walk from the Temple of the Tooth: yet it’s also surrounded by trees and vegetation – the monkeys often come for a visit – and just a couple of hundred yards from a rainforest reserve where you can go for glorious walks. It’s built in a beautiful traditional Sinhalese style, yet it’s incredibly comfortable and has all the modcons you need including a cinema room with movies. It has a well stocked kitchen, it’s easy to get food via uber eats, and the owners provided us with a nice welcome drink and breakfast. We only wish we had arranged to stay here for more than one night. Cannot recommend highly enough.
