We booked quite last minute and arrived in the evening, we were picked up and welcomed with a traditional Sri Lankan meal cooked by the amazing nana Nandi. The rooms are clean and the surroundings beautiful and quiet (apart from the beautiful nature sounds). Sudesh the owner is super helpful and tries to accommodate you in every need (from a Kandy tour, tuktuk service, or help by choosing a taxi driver, to a nice chat with a beer). The family has a lovingly warmth which makes you feel welcomed and at ease. We stayed here with our kids, but I would also recommend it to couples without. The fact that there are (almost) daily cooking classes makes it easy to meet people. To summarize: a recommendation from my heart! We will meet again <3

Marvel Hills exceeded our expectations. What a truly lovely homestay. The owner went out of his way to help us out with luggage storage and extra night there. Location was fabulous as the local bus stop is very close and cheap to use and frequent. We had a room with balcony overlooking Kandy hills. The room was very spacious with kitchenette on balcony and fridge/freezer. The grounds and garden were immaculate. We will be recommending this gem to family and friends and will definitely be back one day soon. 10/10

Extremely comfortable and good value in a great location. This is an amazing old house in a great part of town near the lake. The host has lived here for many decades, and it really feels like an intimate homestay in spite of the several rooms. The room was large and lovely, with a beautiful view over the hillside. It is not luxurious, but really comfortable and full of character, and the included breakfast was very good as well.

I had a fantastic stay at Roo Lanka Homestay Hotel. The staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. The rooms were spotless, and the hotel is conveniently close to Kandy city, offering a peaceful retreat. The Sri Lankan food was delicious and authentic. Overall, a great experience with warm hospitality, cleanliness, and a perfect location. Highly recommended!

Nestled in the picturesque hills of Kandy, this tranquil homestay is a must-visit destination. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by two exceptional hosts who went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. The authentic, plentiful meals they prepared were a true delight. The accommodation itself was elegantly appointed and immaculately clean. Situated on top of a small hill on the edge of the woods, the house lies approximately 2.5 kilometers from the center of Kandy.

The host family was so nice, hospitable and helpful in making sure that we enjoy our stay in Kandy, Mr. Leslie proactively offered tuktuk from railway station for advantageous price and provided a lot of other really valuable advice. Breakfast as well as dinner were rich and tasty. There is a kitchen available for making tea or coffee, as well as drinking water. A lot of common room (dining room, terraces) where one can meet other travellers.
