Queen's Hotel Kandy - 160 Years of Heritage & Luxury
8.9 (113 reviews)

Queen's Hotel Kandy - 160 Years of Heritage & Luxury ★★★★★

📍 DS Senanayake Veediya, Kandy

"The entrance to the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic is right there. It's a wonderful, long-established hotel. Both dinner and breakfast are buffets with a wide variety of food. The vintage elevator was also a nice experience. It seems I was given a room facing the pool. I didn't swim, but it was relaxing and pleasant. There was also a bar."

Taru Villas Kandy
9.4 (69 reviews)

Taru Villas Kandy ★★★★★

📍 Mahayaya Walauwwa, No 262 Katugastota Road Kandy, Kandy

"Very nice stay. Staff were great. Breakfast and dinner included, which I enjoyed. I think this is worth it if you can get a deal via one of the booking sites, it's quite pricey compared to other more conveniently situated properties in Kandy. It's a very unique boutique hotel, beautiful and comfortable with great service. The only gripe I would have is the shower...it's a small hot water tank, so you can have a max 10 minute shower before the water runs cold. You then have to wait 10mins before the water heater heats the water back up. Other reviews complain about the noise from the road and rail track, but we didn't hear a single train during our 2 night stay and the road didn't bother us at all."

Radisson Hotel Kandy

Radisson Hotel Kandy ★★★★★

📍 31 Saranankara Rd, Kandy

"Room was well decorated but the toilet was not well maintained. After one shower, hair got stuck at the drain and the water was stagnating at the base of the shower even after the whole night. The view from the room was spectacular but I wouldn’t come back"

Radisson Hotel Kandy ★★★★★
"Overall, I liked everything except for one thing: the incredibly weak Wi-Fi. First, it constantly disconnected. Second, it was incredibly slow to load anything. It took almost an hour to download 500 MB… But other than that, it's a wonderful hotel."

Cassendra Hotel Kandy ★★★★
"The hotel is located on a hill, which might have been a bit inconvenient in the past, but it offers excellent views overlooking Kandy. The rooms are well-equipped and clean, making it the best hotel I've stayed at on this trip. Plus, the price was quite reasonable, offering great value for money."

The Trees, Kandy ★★★★★
"We had a wonderful one-night stay at The Trees Hotel in Kandy. The beautiful lake view made our stay even more special. The food was absolutely delicious, the staff were warm and friendly, and our room was spacious, comfortable, and very clean. One of the highlights of our stay was the unforgettable massage experience, which was truly relaxing and added to our overall enjoyment. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would definitely recommend The Trees Hotel to anyone visiting Kandy. We look forward to staying here again! Nihal and Afa, Maldives"

"Nice location. Beautiful view. Great service as well. Staff is nice. Breakfast spread is good - although many items were very salty. Same for dinner buffet. One issue - no lift. So people who cant take stairs are unable to go to bar above or spa below."
