“Nestled on a hill with striking views, this property blends Kandyan and Swiss styles, which I found intriguing, along with its nightclub and outdoor pool. While the building shows its age, staff are responsive to requests, even accommodating room changes; the location is near local attractions like the Bahirawakanda Vihara Buddha Statue. It's a peaceful spot, if you're looking for something convenient to Kandy's highlights.”
