Kandy View Hotel in Kandy … I had an amazing stay at the Kandy View Hotel. Besides the beautiful location, the wonderful view and the excellent food, the staff are so friendly that you just feel so at home you don't want to leave. I can recommend taking the offer and taking a guided look around. The hotel staff knows a lot of beautiful spots that aren't yet discovered by the big crowd. The owner's hospitality is amazing. I cannot say anything bad about the place. I hope you will love it to. And send them my love.
Majestic Tourist Hotel in Kandy … Fairly basic room but very clean, and fantastic food and wonderful views! We were made to feel very welcome during our three days visiting Kandy.
Ocean View Guesthouse in Galle … We visited Ocean View Guesthouse on 31 December 2003 with and were welcomed by a delightfully warm and friendly staff. The rooms were excellent - clean, bright and tastefully decorated. A wonderful breakfast was served on our terrace (with a splendid view) in the morning. What a dream! We are happy to hear the guesthouse was not affected by the tsunami and we wish all the wonderful people in Galle and Sri Lanka all the best for the future.
Rodney's Viewpoint Rest & Restaurant in Kandy … I stayed at Rodney's for two days and loved it! I would have liked to stay longer but I had to get back to Colombo. The rooms are spacious and clean and the staff are very friendly and will do anything you ask. I booked a day tour with the guesthouse that was excellent, of which the Elephant Orphanage was the highlight and should not be missed!! I would highly recommend this guesthouse!
Majestic Tourist Hotel in Kandy … My friend Nikki and I were travelling the world and stopped off at Kandy for a few days after being to Hikaduwa. The Majestic guesthouse was recommended to us by a travel agent in Colombo. We found the owner Dhammike and his staff very friendly and accommodating. The guesthouse tuk tuk (an auto rickshaw) collected us from the train station, which was great for us with our heavy rucksacks (mainly toiletries may I add). Anything we wanted they obliged. We ate in the restaurant one night and had a fabulous potato curry with all the works — gorgeous it was. The breakfasts were lovely, too. One of the most stunning views we've ever seen was from our balcony in our room, out of this world it was, it was like something out of 'Heidi' (if any of you remember that). They even joined in with a game of chess with us one night, a real family atmosphere we thought. We were only there three days so didn't get chance to see a lot of Kandy, but we did visit the "Botanical Gardens, " if you are…
Kandy View Hotel in Kandy … We visited this hotel in February 2005. We found it to be very clean and tidy and run by a very friendly staff. It is an exceptionally good value for the money.
Majestic Tourist Hotel in Kandy … Great place to stay, superb views, and very helpful staff. Good breakfast and evening meals. We had three rooms for our family and all were very clean and tidy. The price for our stay was the best we found in Sri Lanka. We will stay here again on our return to Kandy. ** Very recommended.
Kandy View Hotel in Kandy … Me and my friends stayed at the Kandy View for four nights in April 2007 and it was great. Our rooms were lovely, it's in a great location, and the owner of the hotel was a great help to us. The staff helped us sort out loads of day trips and told us a lot about Kandy and Sri Lanka in general. I would recommend staying at the Kandy View Hotel to anyone who is planning to stay in Kandy 100%! I will definitely be back one day!
Rodney's Viewpoint Rest & Restaurant in Kandy … We are a family of four and stayed at Rodney's for four days, which was our longest stop in one place in Sri Lanka. This says what we thought of this place. It is almost new, and has very large rooms with full en suites with plenty of hot water, which are serviced daily. It has full-sized comfortable beds equipped with mosquito nets. And the staff loved our two young sons. Rooms have great views over Knuckles Range and a pretty village. There is a menu to suit all tastes and it is all freshly prepared. All in all, a real find.
Boa Vista Guest House in Anuradhapura … We stayed in this hotel for 2 nights in August 2004 and were well looked after. Rooms were clean and bathroom facilities were more than satisfactory. The owners were very welcoming and went out of their way to look after us. Laundry was also catered for. Meals were great and as we love curry, they prepared some delicious meals for our party of six. Thank you for making us welcome. Our group was from Australia.
Ocean View Cottage in Hikkaduwa … stayed at this hotel for about a week shortly after the first anniversary of the tsunami (xmas/new years 2005/06) with a group of about thirteen cricketers and our girlfriends. mihindi and his family own and run the small, very friendly guesthouse, which is reasonably basic accommodation, but clean and well maintained. good size rooms, some with air con, others with fan. first floor rooms with balcony great value, looking out over the ocean. they can do just about any configuration, singles through to quads. it is right on the beach and now has a swimming pool. basic restaurant but nice inexpensive food. a few hundred meters down the beach from the main area, meaning it is quiet and private. mihindi is a great fellow, his wife is equally lovely, nothing was too much trouble. i get an email from him once every six months telling me how much he enjoyed our stay there and asking when we are coming back to visit! top bloke. can't speak highly enough of the place. highly recommend it.
Ranjit's Ambalama Hotel in Colombo … I would strongly recommend everyone who is thinking about travelling in Sri Lanka to stop by at Ranjit's place! I participated at a Global Pharmacy course in Colombo and had the great pleasure to have Ranjit as a host for two weeks. The rooms are nice, the garden is great and Ranjit is really great company!
