Offering mountain views, Kandy Fortress is an accommodation set in Kandy, 5 km from Sri Dalada Maligawa and 5 km from Kandy Museum. With free private parking, the property is 3.9 km from Kandy City Center Shopping Mall and 4 km from Kandy railway station. The property is 3.8 km from Bogambara Stadium, and within 1.1 km of the city centre.

We really enjoyed our stay: It’s quite with spacious rooms, a common kitchen area, sofas and dining table. The owner is super laidback and gave us bananas from her garden every morning. It is uphill 3km out of the city center. Perfect to chill after a busy day.

    Eranga was an extremely accommodating and charming host. He came to collect us directly from the train station and had lots of information and recommendations to help us make the most of our stay in Kandy and beyond. He is a very kind man, and White Lodge feels very much like a homestay. Furthermore, the rooms, whilst simple, were very clean and well-maintained. The view from the balcony is lovely. A comfortable bed and an extremely quiet location made for a very good night's sleep.

    My girlfriend and I stayed at Clove Villa for 2 nights. The villa is located a little bit north of the city center, but therefore quite remote and well connected by quickly organized tuk-tuk or cab rides. The villa itself is very charming, cozy and clean and the staff is super attentive and welcoming. Upon arrival we were served fresh welcome drinks and in the evening Umeish - the chef of the house - prepared incredible tapas style variations of curries. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend staying and dining here.
