The Tenthola

The best accomodation we had during our stay in Sri Lanka. Rooms are clean, terracce with stunning view. Amazing and tasty breakfast. Beer and limonades in the fridge. Last but not the least - friendly owner 😉

Nothing

We had an amazing view, good food, very clean and comfortable rooms. The owner helped us with everything and was friendly.

If you like lots of privacy, the owner is a bit stressful. When you go out of your room, he stays always around.

The whole building, common areas, rooms, views and garden around it are simply stunning and breathtaking! We are not at the end of our trip yet, but I think we will not experience something similar anymore, it is outstanding! Everything truly looks like on the pictures, rooms are comfortable and well equipped. The breakfast was also good. In addition, the host is nice, he showed us the garden when we arrived and also organized amazing tuk tuk drivers to visit some sights and go to town (~10min), as well as a van driver/ guide just on the night before to go tu Nuwara Eliya.

Unfortunately the Wifi did not work properly. I have to mention, that I do not recommend having dinner there, as we were charged 8$ per person for simple rice, vegetables and some chicken. Also 8$ service charge was added, this was deducted from the bill though after we complained about the dinner price.

Excellent guesthouse in perfect peaceful setting close to Kandy. Our hosts were friendly, knowledgeable and great cooks!

Cleanliness

Food charges

The view is unbelievable. The terrace is the perfect spot to relax and read a book! It feels so clean and neat. Plus the host is really amazing and welcoming. The food especially the breakfast felt so good :) I really recommend this place, I had the best experience and as I’ve said the view was the best thing.

Its not in the centre of the city (which is also good because you get to have a view) but I think it’s still very feasible (I took a tuk tuk for like 10’)

The friendliness and local knowledge. The excellent breakfast. The views

Nothing really The address is not correct in Booking.com.

The most beautiful setting overlooking Kandy. Viper was the highlight of the stay, who was extremely welcoming and friendly. He made it feel like we were staying with an old friend! Large room, well ventilated, and comfy large bed.

Hot water for showers a little scarce.

The property is stunning and the host, Viper, is helpful and great fun. The breakfast was delicious and filling and the view over Kandy was gorgeous. It's set up in the hills of Kandy so it's quite difficult to navigate to with the notorious tuk-tuks of Kandy. Be prepared for some lengthy explanations even when using PickMe or Uber, because for some reason the drivers don't look at the GPS-enabled map in the app but would rather call you to ask you where you are and where you're going (and sometimes for extra money).
