I agree with all other reviewers about how beautiful, clean, private this place is. The owner is on site and is very courteous and helpful. They only thing i would stress is that it is quite far from not only Kandy (we took the bus to and fro then walked, all in all it was over an hour!) but it... More

Great getaway , beautifully appointed, spotlessly clean rooms, each with a great view. Yummiest breakfasts and a courteous host/owner. Best hotel in my travels in Sri Lanka.

Hotel offers best rooms I've seen it Sri Lanka. Rooms are quiet with panoramic windows, very clean and have all the necessary amenities. Breakfast is good, view from balcony is great. Choose it if you need a silent stay in Kandy, Though it is located a bit far from the main road, the way is worth it.

Elegant Hotel would have to be up there amongst my favourite places to stay in SL. It is spotlessly clean, the staff go out of their way to help you, please, and make your stay as comfortable as possible. I stayed here for 9 days for work purposes, and as a solo female traveller, I could not have felt more... More

It's a new, small, quiet hotel. Stayed for 2 nights Location: about 15 min drive from Kandy. The final part of the road is steep and not paved - may be an issue when raining. Room: spacious, clean, good bathroom and sliding doors to a huge balcony. Fantastic views from surrounding nature Food: breakfast and dinner were very good. Nice... More

You can hear the monks singing when having a dinner from the nearby temple. Staff was very nice and helpful. You can reach Kandy by a... More

This place was by far the best place we stayed in Sri Lanka! It is in the middle of the nature about an half hour by Tuk Tuk from Kandy. The hotel is brandnew with a beautiful garden and fantastic views all around. We bokked for 2 nights but stayed 5 and would definately stay longer if we had more... More

Having travelled for two months in Sri Lanka, staying in many hostels, guesthouses and on sandy beaches, the Elegant in Kandy was a welcome relief. I had decided I would give myself a few days of peace, quiet and luxury after my trek around the country, and certainly got all of that. The rooms are spacious, light and decidedly cool... More

In February 2011 My wife Anne and I were going to travel to Trincomalee but our guide the famous Eddie suggested that we first stay for a few days at the elegant hotel in the Kandy district and then strike out for the east coast After a long hair raising drive along the Kandy road from Columbo with a stop...
