Great location not far from town centre, bus station, railway station etc. nestled in a leafy area away from the chaos of town. We watched the squirrels and birds from the balcony while eating breakfast. Siraj was a fantastic host. Best pancakes and fruit platter. He was very friendly and helped us answer our questions about Kandy. PickMe and Uber work well here too.

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.

Jay's location was perfect and it had such a beautiful view. The room is equipped with everything you need and Jay is a pleasant and likeable host. Jay arranged a tasty breakfast for us with two options: Sri Lankan or continental. Apart from that, Jay was available on WhatsApp if we had any questions or requests. I definitely recommend this place if you have a personal driver or a tuk tuk, The location is close to the Kandy Sacred Tooth Temple.

We had a great time at the Tenthola. We felt very comfortable. The room and also the terrace - with a really great view - have been super clean. The host offered us a welcome - drink and the breakfast was great! The host also had many recommendations for what to do in and around Kandy. We can highly recommend this accomodation!

    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.
