Detailed Reviews
The bungalow is absolutely located in a scenic location. The balconies offer great views of a range of mountains and a part of the city. Breakfast is just average. Guests are allowed to bring food from outside including food delivery services. The rooms are convenient and comfortable. However, cleanliness could be improved. A major negative point is the unprofessional manner of the staff members.

Our room and bathroom were very good. I slept super well and there is almost no noise (especially compared with the hustle and bustle/ barking dogs) of Kandy. It can take a while for a tuk tuk to arrive so order one well in advance of heading out.
AC, TV, kettle all great

I found this place via booking.com for two Night Oct.26-28 and it was a gem. A lovely place with an amazing view and facilities. It's a very good and peaceful place in all over Kandy, Seriously very reasonable price and they staffs service are so good and Manager also very friendly behavior. Rooms are Very Clean and No any Complain. Very recommend place to stay with Family or Couple. Since it's in Hanthana mountain road, the route can be tricky. Take the road from Heeressagala (near Keells, New road to Kandy if you are coming from Colombo) and it'll take only 10-15 minutes to reach here.
Breakfast is Very Good , Tasty Most reasonable for Value. They don't provide Lunch and Dinner but you can order online from almost 40-50 outlets at a very reasonable delivery charge (pickme food works very well)

Very filthy bathroom
Horrible smell
Staff very unprofessional
No water one day.
No regular room cleaning
Noisy
The only thing working was A/C
Tv speaker not working
Very remote area.
No shops nearby
Didn’t feel like ordering anything to eat from their kitchen, so I bought food from outside.
They need to improve service A lot.
I hope they read this and improve things.
Good luck

Hi, We strongly believe that you stayed in a different hotel. because the details of such issues did not come in our hotel. We never experienced such things. Please check again with your bills because such comments will mislead thousands of guests.

This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
Had booked and paid for this accomodation in Australia , grossly overcharged through Agoda. Hotel management claimed on day of
CHECK-OUT that this booking had been cancelled by Agoda and I would have to pay extra $180 (3days)
Naturally I objected and only after contacting my Travel Agent in Aus who contacted Agoda was this anomaly fixed. After much angst and stress this was resolved.
I found out from some Swedish travellers a couple of days later when I ran into them in Arungambay that the same thing had happened to them and they were subjected to the same harassment by the hotel management. MAYBE A SCAM BY THE HOTEL MANAGEMENT ......BEWARE !!

Kandyan view is located high above the town of Kandy,sitting here at present and even though this evening we have rain the view from the window is enchanting and stunningly beautiful.It is a small hotel and the service we have recieved has been exeptional and very personal making every aspect of our stay memorable.The whole building is spotlessy clean,the bedroom quiet and comfortable ,the garden beautifully lanscaped, te whole place just a super place to unwind and relax after busy days sightseeing.The cook here rustles up the most delicious meals of your choice and the breakfast is amazing(the best omletes ever)the waiter whom is here from breakfast till very late evening caters for your every need and its amost as if he seems to know what you want before you want it.The Manager ever present and has certainly brought his wealth of experience of his work in hotels in Dubia to this tranquil haven here in Shri Lanka.Our driver from the hotel group could not have looked after us any better,taking us where we wanted rather than organised tours,again enhancing the personal touch.both my husband and I would recomend this hotel to anyone.

Kindly teach them to talk to human manner very unethical.They don't offer what was requested upon booking. Sri Lanka is special for their courtesy.'They call it home.'they need to be more careful dealing with foreigners.
