Villa Olde Ceylon is situated in a semi-urban area with the most beautiful natural surroundings.In this beautiful place I got three alternative rooms to make my choice and enjoy my independence.Although it is located in a semi-urban area I was able to witness a green and a calm surrounding. And the owner of this will is a very friendly person who can handle English, French and Italian languages.The delicious food that were prepared by them were typical Sri lankan and they had a unique recipe for that.It was a fine day.

We were welcomed with a very delicious welcome drink (best juice I had so far one the whole trip!). The room was clean, spacious and comfortable. The family were very friendly and helpful. Over the delicious breakfast we always had a chance to engage in a great conversation with the host and get some tips / recommendation. The host was also quick to reply to messages. The breakfast itself as said was delicious and best about it there was variation not always the same! We were also given the option to book dinner. The garden was lovely too sit in, to just have a moment to relax. The guest house is a bit out of town, however, when you book a Tuk Tuk via one of the apps it was only 350 Rupees to town (as of Jan 25) so really nothing to comment about ;)

Everything was amazing. Super clean and comfortable room with breathtaking view. Super helpful staff. They gave us some tips about the city, arranged tuk-tuk for good price, gave us tea when we were tired in the evening. Delicious breakfast, and it was so much food that we took sandwichees with as for having lunch in the city. Everything was just perfect. I would stay again for sure.

This place has very humble and sincere people working there. Anything you need they will get for you. The bed was comfortable, the area is quiet so you can sleep at night with no problem. The room has everything you need for a comfortable staying. The absence of AC was not a problem as you can sleep just fine with an open window. The breakfasts were amazing and every day we tried new local foods. The hotel is ran by a family, the father does all the cooking, and he is a professional chef! I really recommend this place. You will feel relaxed and taken good care of here. I think that the service they provide is more valuable than what they charge you.

It's a very very charming boutique hotel. It has an Italian design. The manager speaks good English and knows what hospitality is. He organised everything for us, was genuine interested and made us feel very welcome. The breakfast is also good. And it's easy in this hotel to also meet other travellers (with families). The views from the hotel are stunning, it's a little bit out of the city center but therefore also nice and quiet.

The lake view and quiet location are delightful in the morning. The guest house thrives primarily due to its two fantastic hosts, who took excellent care of me. Enjoying a beer and discussing politics with them was a warm and welcoming experience. The recommended dance show is truly worth attending, even though the audience is predominantly white.

Our two hosts were remarkably friendly, attentive and helpful. While the accommodation is located on the outskirts of Kandy (and is thus very quiet - a big plus in our opinion), the city centre and all the major sights are easily reachable by tuktuk. Our corner room with a balcony had a beautiful view over the river and the surrounding countryside. The breakfast - especially the fresh fruit - was delicious, varied and more than we could eat.
