This place is stunningly beautiful! It's an oasis of tranquility and wellness very close to the city centre. As soon as you walk in you will be overwhelmed by the amazing artwork and the amazing style of the villa. Didn't find anything comparable to this hidden gem! It's just next level. The owner is super kind and makes you feel like a king/queen. Grazie mille fratello!

Jaye was a nice and helpful host. I only stayed in Kandy for a short time but the homestay was great. Nice view overlooking the city but still walking distance to the center. Very clean and quiet. Would recommend!

This was my second stay at Kandy Tree Tops. Upul and Baghia are the best kindest hosts. They make every guest welcome and treat people like family. Baghia is the best cook and their breakfasts and dinners are some of the best food I’ve had in Sri Lanka! Upul is very kind and is always helpful in making sure we have the best intinerary for our stay to enjoy Kandy. Also, helping arrange Tuk Tuks from Kandy Tree Tops to the Center of Kandy. The place is spotless, well maintained, modern and in a quiet location. I couldn’t recommend more if you are staying in Kandy.

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.

Room was spotless and extremely tranquil. I wish I had stayed there longer, since I slept there so well. The owner was really friendly and helpful, he organised us airport pick up and was eager to explain how we could get to the next destination of our trip. Also, the breakfast was delicious. Overall it was very good experience.

Viper was very helpful and an engaging host, sharing historical stories about SL. He made the experience special. The location is off the hustle and bustle of the city, which was perfect for us. Breakfast was delicious; both continental and Sri Lankan. We had a wonderful time at Tenthola and in Kandy.

Even though we only stayed at Mount Haven for one night we absolutely loved it. The room was massive and sparkling clean with views over the town in every direction. The couple in charge of the house are absolutely lovely and they even wraped our breakfast for our early check out and the train journey. We absolutely recommend it

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.
