The hotel is impressive as soon as you walk in. The staff were quick to greet you and help you check in. The room (family), was spacious, quiet, very clean with all modern fittings and amenities. The breakfast was excellent - catered for a range of cuisines. Again, the restaurant staff were friendly and attentive. I wish I could have stayed longer!

This is really a quiet haven against the backdrop of the bustling city of Kandy. We were welcomed with cool towels and refreshments and the owner could not do more to make our stay fantastic. This included a complimentary lift into town, an extended check out and help with transport and tours. Nothing was too much trouble! The hotel is in a beautiful building, tastefully furnished with lots of terraces/areas to relax and with the added benefit of a pool. The breakfast was delicious and served in the beautiful first floor dining room with fantastic views. The most remarkable value for money - couldn’t recommend more highly!

This is the most incredible hotel. The views are simply breathtaking and the hospitality of the staff is absolutely overwhelming. Mr Thilak, hotel manager, and his team took care of every detail during our 2 day stay with them. We were travelling with young children (age 3 & 6) and they were so accommodating and kind it was really heartwarming. Small things like our eldest mentioned how he wanted to try a King Coconut at some point during his stay in Sri Lanka, and the next morning at breakfast, the team had thoughtfully carved two for the kids, in the shape of a mouse, so they could try the refreshing coconut water. Mr Thilak also arranged for a short cooking class for us to make our own Hoppers for breakfast, it was a great and interactive experience- especially for the kids. The food menu was brilliant for families, which was something we were a little worried about hearing stories from friends, but here there was even a kids menu here and lots of things our boys enjoyed. Our stay happened to fall over International Women's Day, and I was stopped in the afternoon and presented with a rose and a small gift to celebrate the event. It was so thoughtful. The swimming pool at the hotel is amazing, with views from the pool, restaurant and lobby that will literally take your breath away. Surprise visits from the local monkeys were also fun! We had a driver for our trip and also took the chance to visit Kandy which took us about 1 hour... worth the trip to see some of the famous sights, though I must say we were happy to return to serenity of Greenacres after a full on day of busy city life. We were so sad when it came time to leave, and would truly reccomend anyone travelling to Sri Lanka to brave the jungle path to the hotel and absorb the beautiful setting, wonderful views and warm Sri Lankan hospitality. Above all, the hotel has the most incredible staff with the closest attention to detail and we would truly like to thank them all for their fabulous service!

    Our visit to Kandy was truly wonderful, offering a perfect blend of cultural heritage, natural beauty, and modern convenience. The city is a joy to explore, and we found it remarkably easy to get around. One of the highlights of our trip was visiting the iconic Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic (Maligawa) and taking a relaxing stroll around the picturesque Kandy Lake. We also loved exploring the serene Udawatte Kele Sanctuary, which felt like a peaceful escape. For those interested in the region's history, the Hanthana Tea Museum and the Kandy Wax Museum were both fascinating, and the Peradeniya Botanical Gardens were an absolute must-see with their stunning and diverse flora. The dining scene in Kandy was delightful. For lunch, we enjoyed a delicious and authentic meal at the Sri Ramya Hotel in town. For a special evening, we had dinner at Sams restaurant, which offered not only great food but also a fantastic view of the city. We also grabbed a quick bite at the restaurant on the top floor of KCC, which was very convenient. Getting around the city was surprisingly simple. The PickMe and Uber apps work well, and we found that tuk-tuks are readily available and very affordable, making it easy to hop between different attractions. While traveling without young children, we believe Kandy offers many family-friendly activities. The Hanthana Tea Museum, Kandy Wax Museum, and the beautiful botanical gardens are all engaging spots that would surely be enjoyed by families. Overall, Kandy is an excellent destination that combines rich history with natural charm and practical accessibility. We highly recommend it for any traveler.

    Kandy is a very busy city!

    Kandy is a very busy city! We ended up having to spend 3 nights there due to trying to get a train booking to Kandy, however we felt that 1 night, max 2 would have been enough. You can get round all the main attractions in a day so you don't need to spend too much time. Don't book tickets through a third party as you are not guaranteed them (we were told the day before we didn't have tickets!) so just turn up early to the station and you'll get a ticket for the train - though no guarantee of a seat!

    Kandy is a city that wraps you in a gentle embrace from the moment you arrive. Its people are warm, genuine, and respectful, always ready to greet you with a smile and extend a helping hand. The air is fresh and cool, carrying the scent of hills and flowers, while the weather shifts softly between sunshine and mist. The cuisine is a delightful blend of tradition and flavor, from fragrant curries to freshly brewed tea, each bite telling a story of its rich culture. Here, honesty feels natural, safety is never in question, and respect for one another is a way of life. Kandy is not just a place you visit—it’s a feeling you carry home.

    Kandy has a UNESCO HERITAGE site worth visiting specially during Perihera festival. The general standards of hygiene and sanitation are not upto the mark. Keeping in view the footfall at Kandy the facilities for rest rooms almost completely absent. The tuk-tuk guys charge exorbitant from tourists for short distances and local administration and police have no control on them. There are no prepaid autos and taxis available. The pick me app for transport has no meaning when given rates are not charged.

    Stunning views over hills and forrests. The hotel is just at the cloudline, which makes the views even more exceptional - mist rolling over the hills! The staff could not be more attentive and the facilities were excellent. Best hopper in Sri Lanka for breakfast! Evening buffet was also great. We also enjoyed playing snooker on the full size table. An extremely restful stay, which was just what we needed after the rather stressful Ella to Kandy train journey!

    Super lovely boutique hotel in Kandy with two of the nicest, most helpful, hosts you will meet. The breakfast was fantastic and the view from the room and communal area was gorgeous. The place was spotlessly clean and I can honestly say I got the best nights sleep I’d had in Sri Lanka while I was there. It was an amazing deal for the price we paid and I can’t recommend it highly enough!

    Beautiful Geoffrey Bawa designed house now a small boutique hotel perched on a cliff top overlooking Kandy city with spectacular views. The staff were very helpful and kind. The Managers father cooked us a traditional Sri Lankan dinner which was really delicious. Highly recommend. They also have a tuk tuk drier to take you into town which is just 10 -15 min drive.

    The owner was friendly and helpful. He offered to order food from town for us and paid with his card to make it easier. He also got us tuk tuks for our city tour and we ended up with the best drivers ever! We had a mix up with the rooms but that was solved quickly too. The villa is in a quiet area of Kandy and you can watch wildlife from the balcony.
