Kandy hotels near Asgiriya Stadium

Pros: The beds here are the most comfortable beds we've ever slept on! Didn't want to get out! The staff are really friendly, we had a free room upgrade to deluxe which was huge. Also ate in the restaurant one night and the food was great. Located close to the train station and not far from other attractions.

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: Nice pool on 7th floor. Room had a balcony looking over the street could to just watch city life unfold. Good bed, so had a good night's sleep. Aircon was good - booked without but got upgraded to Aircon room

Cons: Staff were not very helpful, asked for advice about local area but it appeared like he did not want to help. Also asked about local Tuk Tuk charges and the same person stopped him.from helping us. (However the rest of the staff were helpful) There is currently building work going on in reception which we did not know about. Pet hate of mine is tax and service fee is added on at the end so room is not as cheap as you think.

Pros: The staff were really helpful and nice. Great hospitality, the hotel room was clean and spacious. We got some complimentary snacks and water which they topup everyday. Location was close to the city centre and the railway station, it made it really convenient to go around the city on foot.

Cons: Very nice breakfast, but would be nice to have Sri Lankan traditional option

Pros: I got free upgrade! Thank you. The hotel is very compact, but great location, super clean, comfortable bed, nice staff, fresh breakfast. Also the roof top pool is small but very welcome after walked around city. I was very happy to stay. Highly I can recommend especially, solo travelers, couples or friends.

Cons: Wifi doesn’t work well

Pros: Clean and tidy rooms Great buffet breakfast

Cons: The hotel looks a little aged and hasn’t been taken care of. The service was quite slow - we asked for ice and it came hours later.

Pros: The rooms where fantastic, clean and well design. The staff could not do enough for you. Security was excellent and the location was perfect for walking into Kandy.

Cons: Nothing, I had a great stay and was looked after very well

Pros: Lovely warm welcome, friendly efficient staff, excellent buffet dinner but breakfast buffet lacking a bit for western tastes. Well located short walk to town temple and lake but better tuk tuk back up the hill back.

Cons: Room well appointed but extremely musty smell of humidity really was overpowering which spoilt what was otherwise an excellent classy hotel.

Pros: Very friendly staff. Luxurious.

Pros: Fantastic stay here. Staff were very friendly and were beyond helpful. Location was perfect as well. Altogether 10/10.

Pros: Excellent location, i was given a free upgrade to honeymoon suite that was great. Excellent staff speacially Mr. Insaaf.

Cons: Everything was superb

Pros: Well maintained property.

Cons: Old and worn bed was sagging in middle with edge remaining firm. Other hotels small or big have the courtesy to ask their customer the method of payment or at least inform that they will using the card. Here, before I entered my alloted room, they had charged on my card and the bank called up to inform me that someone was using my card from a different country

Pros: People

Pros: The staff throughout the hotel were friendly and extremely helpful. Beautiful high position of the hotel gives you spectacular views. Food was delicious at every meal. The hotel is opulent and room was too.

Cons: Quality of the bath towel. However poor quality towels seems to be the standard in Sri Lanka but at such a beautiful hotel it is out of standard with everything else. Also the hair dryer was inefficient and hard to use

Pros: The lobby was luxurious. The view from the lobby was breath taking. Our room was beautiful and clean the view was amazing too. Most of the staff were super friendly. Room service food was delishhh.

Cons: I had an incident with staff members from the kitchen where they tried to get me to sign two bills that were on top of eachother (signature prints down on the yellow copy i dont know what its called) there was a mis understanding and instead of trying to fix this problem these staff members just tried to trick me into signing the bill. These were only 2, I ofcourse called reception and said i wanted to talk to the manager because i had a complaint. Took them a while to understand that my point wasn’t that i wasn’t going to pay, my point was they tried to trick me into signing without me knowing instead of calling me and explaining and admitting they made a mistake, that’s preposterous behaviour that you don’t expect to see in a 5 star hotel. Management from the restaurant called me to apologize so, all good, even though my evening was ruined. Even the next morning when i ordered room service, when i had my food delivered by an extremely nice lady, another male staff member popped out of the blue peeping in our room checking with her that everything was fine !! God knows what the female staff member i had a problem with lied about me (to try to cover her actions) but they made me feel like i was being a difficult guest, even though i was the one that they tried to trick, ridiculous. Still kind of annoyed to be honest. Anyway those were just 2 members, the rest of the staff were amazing. My tip to you is just double check everything, even if a staff member tells you that breakfast is included in your room, just double check with someone else too. (Even though sometimes 5 star hotels give you upgrades, with this hotel still double check everything, just incase) Me, i wouldn’t stay here again because I’m a sensitive person and what happened to me really sucked. But the hotel really is nice.

Pros: Very beautiful room with antique type of furniture. Room had a balcony also. Wifi ok. Very friendly staff, very alert and helpful, excellent rice and curry nd nice breakfasts.

Cons: Everything was nice

Pros: Our hosts were so friendly and welcoming and the room is really comfortable and clean. The food was fantastic and it’s an easy walk into town.

Cons: Nothing. Everything was great!

Pros: It was a really lovely place to stay. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was one of the best we've had in Sri Lanka (especially the home made jam and egg hoppers). The views from the balcony are stunning. The beds are very comfortable and the location was excellent.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The people who are werking at Villa 49 are so nice! We felt really welcome! They tried to help my husband watch the Formule 1 races and went out their way! We also got two rooms instead of one family room. The food was excellent! Even the pasta for our son. It is clean!

Cons: The comfort of the beds can be a bit better. And the bathroom is small.

Pros: Located very conveniently near the heart of Kandy (a small Tuk ride away). This is a great place to stay. Rooms were clean and comfortable. The check in process was very easy. Upatissa the care taker is very friendly and provides great service.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The breakfast was fabulous, we loved the home made jams! Comfortable beds and nice oriental decor and curtains. Very friendly staff. Only a short tuk tuk ride to the centre of Kandy.

Pros: Wonderful breakfast and curry evening meal the night we arrived. Really, couldnt fault anything.Staff went our of their way to help us.

Pros: Beautifully decorated and comfortable room with all amenities. The staff were lovely. They provided us with an amazing homemade breakfast in the morning. Very close to Kandy city center. We felt at home!

Cons: The bathroom could have been bigger.

Pros: Our stay could not have been better. We had arrived early morning in Colombo the day of the bombings so it was a great relief to arrive that evening at Villa 49 after a very delayed train trip from Colombo to Kandy. Our train tickets had been purchased by our host's husband and delivered to our hotel in Colombo on the Wednesday which proved to be very important because Colombo was virtually shut down after the bombings. Tickets had also been purchased for our ongoing trip to Ella. Our host also arranged for us to be picked up at Kandy railway station despite train being delayed and a 6 o'clock curfew imposed. After our arrival at Villa 49 a delicious meal was prepared for us despite us not having ordered this ahead. Everything about our stay was wonderful under very difficult circumstances including a tuk tuk tour organised for next day and sandwiches being provided at last minute for our train trip to Ella. Would not hesitate to recommend Villa 49 and everything it has to offer.

Pros: Great place to stay, comfortable and cosy. The host Shanani was very helpful in arranging the trips around Kandy, train tickets etc. Rooms are large enough for a couple stay with a child. Get some snacks and fruits on your way to the Villa.

Cons: Away from the city, no grocery store around. Bathroom size very small.

Pros: We only had a one night stay so didn’t make full use of facilities. Staff very helpful. Good selection of buffet food.

Cons: Nil

Pros: The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The women at the reception check us in quickly.

Cons: The room didn’t seem all that clean, I have a dust allergy and I was sneezing quite often. The fitness Centre should not be advertised as it has about 5 cardio machines and 2 treadmills weren’t working. The hotel transfers are pretty expensive.

Pros: The rooms are stunning. Well designed, thoughtful yet unpretentious and the bathtubs are amaxing - you can lat un the bath while overlooking the hillsides. The staff also go out of their way to be helpful.

Cons: Restaurant and food was average and expensive.

Pros: everything. they were so friendly and treated us well.

Pros: Room was lovely, amazing view.

Asked for a necasfe coffee sachet for the room, told we could not have one, offered to pay, told no. Overall staff not very helpful nor did they make us feel overly welcome

Pros: The place where the property is very good looking & the view from the property is so beautiful

Pros: Location

Cons: Slow Check Inn

Pros: Nice big room. Good view over the Kandy hills. Nice swimming pool if it gets warm. The restaurant does a good buffet dinner. Friendly and helpful personnel.

Cons: The location is a bit far from central Kandy. It is just about walkable but it is not a good road for walking. Its situation on top of a hill means that it is a bit cooler during the day, but it can be a bit chilly in the evenings. The hotel hosts a lot of functions. The first night we were there there was a college dinner with extremely loud music until 23.30. After that you could still hear loud voices in the stairs. The lobby bar was closed. They have a bar next to the dining room but it was completely dead. We never saw a person there. The bar should be the heart of a good hotel. There was no lift which wasn't an issue for us, but could be for people with mobility issues

Pros: The staff were very friendly and polite. Accommodating and helpful

Cons: Nothing specific

Pros: The location

Cons: The breakfast

Cons: The food wasnt that good

Pros: The lobby manager was extremely polite, helpful and accommodating regarding my bed choice and went over and above to help me with a queen size bed. Very impressed and happy

Cons: Young receptionist man argued with me about my bed choice due to me being single which I found unprofessional and rude.

Pros: The view is fabulous The food was good

Cons: The beds didn't have mosquito nets even though there were hundreds of mosquitos everywhere, even at breakfast! The airconditioning in our room smelled awful, so we were obliged to sleep with the windows open - you can imagine with the mosquitos

Pros: Staff was very supportive. Food was excellent.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: On the occasion of a family reunion, we stayed at the Thilanka Hotel for several nights. We booked Deluxe rooms which are very spacious, beautifully decorated, excellent bathrooms, spotlessly clean, with a view of Kandy Lake. If you need a family room, it is better to book two intercommunicating rooms rather than a family suite as this will give you a lot more space for a little extra cost. The staff are all very friendly, efficient, and helpful. The restaurant buffet is varied and plentiful; This hotel is also very well situated, away from the busy and noisy Kandy traffic, yet 15 minutes walk or a short tuk-tuk drive to town.

Pros: -well furnished and comfortable room -the view from the balcony is amazing (lake and mountain) -the pool is nice

Cons: -dinner buffet was a bit disappointing considering the price (2000 rupee per head)

Pros: Location

Pros: Good position for visiting the temple of tooth. As a plus very close to the shopping mall and to some good restaurants and shops. Pub/restaurant of the hotel decent.

Cons: Room are not kept in order, walls need to be repainted and there is s constant smell of spicy food coming from the kitchen invading the all the main hallway of the rooms area. Bathroom looked poorly cleaned. Found 1 dead cockroach behind toiled and another one alive near the sink. Can pass over everything but not an uncleaned room! Sorry expected much more for the hotel level!

Pros: located in the city central and easy access

Cons: At the time of online reservation vs, at the venue ware had huge price hike.. had to pay extra 2.5k without knowing the reason.. & the WIFI was extremely slow & most of the time unable to connect it..

Cons: 1.they scammed us by not notifying us about the tour guides accomodation and blamed booking.com regarding this iasue. all the stay-ins we reserved had a free accomodation for the guide. 2.the elevator smells like a dog 3.the room we were in, had a broken faucet and also had the view of the hotels backyard 4.the outer entrance had a very complicated way that goes upwards 5. no one will answer the phone after 9 oclock, even for emergency as we faced an emergency with a diabetic patient 6. Last but not least the wifi in this place was HORRIFIC 7. after filling the tub and finish bathing, there is no way to drain it which also causes it to flood out the room.

Pros: Good buffet for breakfast and dinner. Large, clean rooms.

Cons: There was an event the first night we stayed. It was very loud and meant we couldn't sleep. We asked staff when it was due to end, they told us 11pm. At 11.30pm, when the music was still playing, we asked again when it would end and was told 5 minutes. At 11.45pm, the music was still playing, we were told it had already stopped - when it was like being in a club in our room. At midnight we finally went downstairs to talk to the staff. The music stopped maybe 10 minutes later. We slept badly due to being so stressed.

Pros: The view. The rooms were beautiful, fairly close to town.

Cons: The shower was a little smelly, the restaraunt was a a bit fancy when you just wanted to have dinner
