I had the pleasure of staying in a room with a beautiful view overlooking Kandy. The experience was truly remarkable, with a balcony that allowed me to take in the stunning views of Kandy from the bottom level of the hotel. However, there were some minor drawbacks in terms of pricing and value for money.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with beautiful views overlooking Kandy. The rooms were comfortable with a mini bar offering reasonable prices. However, my balcony overlooked drains in a rear yard, which was a drawback. The service was efficient, offering various amenities such as room service and car hire. The location, situated on a hill, provided a serene setting in Rajapilla Mawatha, although it required a tuk-tuk ride into Kandy for shopping. The dining with stunning views over the valley was a delightful experience. Overall, a nice stay with some minor drawbacks.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While my room had a stunning view of Kandy, the balcony overlooked drains in a rear yard. The service was top-notch with excellent room service and housekeeping. The location, up in the hills, offered a peaceful atmosphere but was a bit lacking in nearby dining options. The dining experience with a view of Kandy was delightful, but the facilities fell short with outdated amenities.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the room on the bottom level was a downside with a view overlooking drains in a rear yard, the stunning view of Kandy made up for it. The service was excellent, offering various amenities like room service and car hire. The location on the side of the hill was breathtaking, but the dining experience with pies was not up to par. The facilities were decent but could be improved.
