Guest Reviews
- Graham (8/5): This is a great option if you are looking for an authentic home stay feel, rather than a traditional hotel. - Lovely homely feeling with very friendly and helpful staff. Nothing
- bernard (3/5): Logement vétuste - Ne correspondait pas au descriptif et donc pas à nos attentes. Logement qui a besoin d’un sérieux relooking.
- Mehedi (8/5): Home away from home - Lovely homestay where the staff takes great care of you and your needs. I had asked for a Sri Lankan breakfast and loved it!
- Danniella (8/5): -
- Martin Szabo (9/5): -
- Michel (10/5): A lovely stay - This is very classy accommodation, in a great location near the lake and within walking distance of the Temple of the Tooth. Our room with terrace was fabulous. Excellent home cooking. Clean, quiet and comfortable. When one of us had a medical issue, the manageress arranged medical assistance (thank you!) and even ordered a tuktuk to fetch the medicine. She also got us tickets to the dance and arranged a driver to Kandy.
- Hans (7/5): Rustige locatie dichtbij het meer - Ligging, 5 minuten lopen naar het meer en aan rustige kant van de stad.
Heerlijk ontbijt.
Personeel deed hun best. Beetje oubollig.
Kleine tuin, waar hooguit 4 mensen kunnen ontbijten.
- Forrest (10/5): A very enjoyable stay, highlighted by the owner's warm hospitality. - Very warm and gracious hospitality, starting with the friendly and informative welcome by Shanani and continuing through the breakfast conversations with her and her husband. They are a very interesting and accomplished couple, yet willing to take the time to chat comfortably with visitors and guests. I was also fortunate to be assigned the top floor room, which has an expansive flower-lined terrace overlooking the city. A lot of stairs to climb, but it's worth it when you get to the top!
- Stef (10/5): Amazing hotel with lovely, helpful host - From the time we arrived the host Shanani was so welcoming and friendly, helping us reserve tickets for the Kandyan Dance Show and giving advice about where to go when, for the best experience. Beautifully decorated room and the evening meal we had was absolutely delicious. We also really enjoyed the egg hoppers in the morning which were very tasty. The balcony of our rooms had amazing views and it was so relaxing :) Nothing
- Tassilo (10/5): - Gorgeous with extremely charming owner
- Gerhard (10/5): Wie Zuhause - Die Besitzerin und ihr Staff waren herzlich und freundlich wie selten auf unseren Reisen erlebt. Wir fühlten uns wie in die Familie aufgenommen.
- Jodie (9/5): We loved it here! - We loved this place. So beautiful and the staff were so friendly! The breakfasts and dinners, omggggg soooo good! Everything home cooked and so delicious!
- Jo (9/5): Quite stylish and friendly. - Arriving here is very welcoming, love the decor and design of the entry and ground floor and top room. The staff were lovely and helped organise a great day out for us. We enjoyed sitting in the garden at breakfast and watching the hoppers being cooked. Our room opened out onto a fabulous deck with views. Wish we could have stayed longer. The place is difficult to find as not well signed and we did find the bed quite uncomfortable as we like a firm bed.
- Georgia (6/5): A good location for walking into Kandy. Fabulous breakfast and lovely hosts. - The owners are absolutely delightful. They are warm and friendly and their home prepared breakfast was fabulous.
It’s in a really good location for walking along the lake into Kandy centre. It’s not a ‘villa’ and the room facilities (eg towels) are tired and need a refresh.
- Susanne (10/5): - Sehr ruhiger Platz, fühlte mich nach der lebhaften Stadt fast wie zu Hause. Komme bestimmt wieder.... kann die Unterkunft nur empfehlen. Das Bad war ein wenig klein, doch war allein in dem riesigen Zimmer.
- Valentina (10/5): прекрасная вилла в Канди - очень понравилась атмосфера на вилле, потрясающий балкон и вид из него! Очень гостеприимная хозяйка, которая сама готовила завтраки, чувствуешь себя в гостях у родственников, в хорошем смысле этого слова)) минусов для нас не было
- Sean (9/5): Excellent stay near the temple and lake - Great boutique hotel in an excellent location near the temple of the tooth, the lake and some great food (hidden lounge).
- Tim (8/5): We loved the staff who were very helpful, and the food was very good. So impressed with the Hoppers - We lived the downstairs courtyard dining and lounge areas We found the room we had was not so good as we’d thought. We couldn’t open balcony doors, bathroom was clean but not updated.
- Guy (10/5): - Such a lovely place to stay. The best home cooked food of our trip - indulge in dinner, you will not regret it. Breakfast in the garden is a treat. A lovely calm retreat. Thank you!
- Elena (10/5): - Останавливались на две ночи, все понравилось! Вилла расположена совсем близко к озеру, в пешей доступности достопримечательности, магазины и кафе. Номер просторный и чистый, хорошие завтраки. Хозяева очень приятные, внимательные и добрые люди! Встретили, посоветовали что посмотреть, помогли с билетами на Кандийские танцы. Мы остались довольны, большое спасибо!
- Thierry (8/5): - La gentillesse des hôtes, l emplacement et le repas du soir . Le prix un peu cher
- ankita (10/5): -
- Gundega (10/5): -
- Nick (10/5): A great find and we feel blessed to have been here - Our host was welcoming, helpful, kind and gave great advice She pointed us to what we should do. Food was outstanding and cooked on site. It felt like a home from home but with Sri Lankan style. A real gem and we'd strongly recommend. To be honest not much!
- Luca (10/5): - Truly a great place run by fantastic people !
The location is great just a 15 min walk from the main attraction but quiet enough from the heavy traffic of Kandy. The room are very nicely decorated and clean. Breakfast is delicious and cooked in front of you . The lady hosting and the gentleman working as main staff are simply amazing ! We loved our stay . Nothing
- PRUE (9/5): - breakfasts were amazing
- Immy (9/5): Would definitely recommend staying here - Amazing hosts and staff who were very friendly and accommodating. Lovely breakfast. Great views and large, lovely rooms. Nothing!
- Karthik (8/5): Overall charming place with excellent staff and breakfast, but rooms/bathrooms need an upgrade! - The area/location is very nice and close to the main attractions. Excellent hostess/staff, excellent breakfast and excellent living/dining communal area on the main floor.
Thank goodness for the fan/air conditioning!
We particularly liked interacting with Shanani and learning/watching the breakfast being prepared. We even ended up having some common connections in the area! The room was large, but very tired looking - particularly the furniture and curtains. There was little to no storage area for things (closet, table, desk). Same goes for the bathroom. Frankly, this does not seem unique to Villa 49 - bathrooms in many places in Sri Lanka literally have no place to keep one's toilet kit/things! We couldn't have stayed there another day because our things in the room were either on the floor or needing to be put back in our suitcases. They need a chest of drawers, or at least couple of shelves/drawers/table for things - there is certainly room for it. For the price we expected better.
- Kenneth (10/5): A wonderful small Guest House with a warm and gracious host, and dedicated staff. - There is so much to like! A dedicated host and exceptional staff did everything to make our stay comfortable. Including satisfying breakfasts (egg hoppers, coconut rotis, homemade jams, delicious dal and great coffee), excellent dinners and arranging trips to unique temples and Ayurvedic massage, with excellent drivers. Located close to Kandy Lake and nearby restaurants. Shanani is a warm and gracious host whom my wife and I enjoyed meeting. The mattress on the bed was softer than we prefer.
- Onnalee (10/5): A fabulous place to stay in Kandy. Stunning food. Fantastic host. - We loved staying at Villa 49. Shanani is a great host. It is in a fabulous location. The food was outstanding. Fabulous homemade jams. Our bedroom had real style and beautiful decor with a stunning terrace. Nothing.
- Olivia (8/5): - Les chambres sont très jolies, le mobilier de goût, et les petits déjeuners très bons bien que cher. Assez mal insonorisé, on entend la route qui peut être assez bruyante car en montée.
- Sanjay (10/5): Two days in Kandy - The Villa is very well maintained with excellent and very courteous staff. Shanani is an excellent host and personally looks after breakfast cooking and needs of individual guests. Excellent breakfast. Property is at a very convenient location. 5-10 minutes by tuk tuk to the lake. There is also a short cut to walk down, we couldn't get to try.
This property is located on a quite side street, not much street noise and nice views from the balcony. Nothing much to dislike really.
- Ashwin (10/5): Perfect stay in Kandy - Amazing host, staff and service. Very homely and welcoming. Great location within easy reach to all main attractions in Kandy. Great value for money. Nothing
- Shuto (8/5): 素敵なホームステイ - 洒落たおばあちゃんの家にホームステイしているかのようなアットホームな雰囲気で、特にダイニングルームの雰囲気が素敵でした。あそこで食べた夕食と朝食は忘れられません。
- Justin (9/5): Friendly service and amazing breakfast - Comfortable and an excellent breakfast Nothing
- Harry (10/5): - Host and colleagues really sweet, gorgeous breakfast and location perfect next to Kandy lake. Very well located for the Kandy Lake Show and Tooth Temple.
- Jeremy (8/5): Excellent stay - Great host with lovely breakfast. Easy 15 minutes walk to town and only 5 minutes to the lake. Helped with onward transport. Room on 3rd floor has marvellous terrace with great views
- Anders (9/5): We can only recommend this place - Very nice staff and a wonderful manager, excellent breakfast and dinner was also good, try it
- Maciej (10/5): Najlepsze śniadanie jakie jadłem na Sri lance - Super właścicielka. Lokalizacja przy samej świątyni zęba. Pyszne domowe śniadanie. Wygodny i fajnie urządzony pokój. Bezpiecznie.
- Giorgia (7/5): The bare minimum with an high price (for that area) - Comfortable bed It was very far from the centre of Kandy, hard to find also with a navigator.
The room was just the bare minimum, so it was the breakfast.
Not a good price/quality ratio.
- Gabriele (7/5): - Alles wie beschrieben!
Gut um Kandy zu besuchen
Waren nur 1 Nacht da Alles ok
- Frances (9/5): - This is a lovely, traditional hotel in an excellent position, just a short walk from the lake and temple in Kandy.
The owner was extremely helpful, very knowledgeable about the area and cooked us a delicious breakfast.
- natacha (10/5): Grande chambre avec vue à 15’ à pied du temple de la dent - Très belle chambre ( la numéro 8 )avec grande terrasse et superbe vue sur la ville. Très bon et très copieux petit déjeuner à prendre dans la cour ou la jolie salle à manger. Personnel aux petits soins. Très pratique car à 15’ à pied le long du lac du temple de la dent. Centre ville à 20’ à pied ( juste après le temple de la dent). Hôtel au calme car du côté du lac résidentiel.
- Annie (10/5): Super gezellige en mooie accomodatie met vriendelijke host en gezellige grote kamers - Heel mooie accomodatie, grote en heel mooie kamer met groot en goed bed. Vriendelijke dame die ons heel gastvrij ontvangen heeft. Ze heeft zelfs de moeite genomen om ons een demo te geven van de bereidingswijze van de typische Srilaanse hoppers omdat we daar benieuwd naar waren. We werden met de tuk tuk van de accomodatie gratis naar de stad gebracht. Het ontbijt kregen we buiten te midden van een weelderige tuin geserveerd, super aangenaam! Niets, het was allemaal super!
- Wiebke (10/5): - Sehr stilvolles Zimmer. Nette Managerin und Personal. Tolles Frühstück mit selbstgemachter Marmelade und frischen Hoppers. Sie machen wohl auch gutes Abendessen, aber das wussten wir nicht. Es ist etwas schwierig, zu Fuss die Strasse herunterzulaufen, aber dann haben wir eine Abkürzung entdeckt, die etwas einfacher ist.
- YUKO (9/5): ナチュラルな朝食が美味しいキャンディのハイセンスな隠れ家 - 素敵なVillaでした。スリランカの伝統文化をオーナーのハイセンスで表現した内装です。朝食も新鮮な果物やナチュラルジュース、焼き立てのホッパー、パッションフルーツなどを使った手づくりのジャムが最高に美味しかったです。同じく手づくりのヌルミリス(サンバル)が絶品でした。 特になし
- Jonathan (10/5): Sri Lanka at its best - Lovely villa in a great place and Shanani and her stuff couldn’t do enough to help loved it will return
- Margaux (9/5): - Le personnel est aux petits soins. Le petit déjeuner est très bon, il nous a été servi dans le jardin ce qui était vraiment agréable.
L'emplacement est top, nous avons pu tout faire à pied. Vous pouvez rejoindre le centre ville en longeant le lac.
La chambre était grande et jolie (+ petit balcon partagé avec la chambre d'à côté), le lit était assez confortable.
Nous avons passé une très bonne nuit à la Villa 49 ! La salle de bain mériterait un petit rafraîchissement, elle est restée dans son "jus".
- Tim (9/5): The hotel is spacious and welcoming with a traditional colonial feel, complemented by friendly staff and an outstanding - The hotel is spacious with a homely and traditional colonial ambience. The staff were very friendly and the breakfast outstanding with refreshing fruit, hoppers, tea/coffee and toast/eggs to order.
- Sharon (10/5): Lovely rooms in a good location. Very kind and gracious host. Very helpful. Wonderful evening meal and breakfast. A very - Good location we enjoyed the walk around the lake to downtown Kandy. Very clean and well appointed rooms. Very helpful host. Nothing.
- Dahnz (10/5): - Es war so familiär und schön! Sehr sehr nettes Personal, schöne Zimmer und kleiner Garten mit hervorragenden Essen! Auch abends kann man hier sehr gut essen! Bis jetzt das beste Hotel in Sri Lanka.
- Meira (8/5): -
- Inge (9/5): Mooi en schoon hotel, goed gelegen! - Schone kamer en goed eten! Het is duur in verhouding met andere hotels en ook als je cash betaald. Het goede eten en de schone kamers waren het geld wel waard maar voor langer verblijf wordt het een duur geintje.
- Bashitha (9/5): -
- Sarah (10/5): Fabulous - Wonderful experience at Villa 49. Beautiful room and property, and fabulous hospitality. The breakfast was delicious. Cannot say enough good things about our stay!
- Kim (10/5): - The food was thoughtfully prepared and the staff were extremely helpful. The setting was quiet yet with good access to lake and centre
- Paul (10/5): Charming hotel near Kandy Lake - The property was well located, clean with spacious rooms. Very good breakfast with interesting home made jams, and hoppas containing the egg. Staff were very friendly. Shan I was an excellent host and prepared a lovely meal one evening . Nothing
- Bernhard (10/5): - Sehr schönes Hotel mit stielvoller Einrichtung.
Für uns wurde jeden Abend frisch gekocht. War immer richtig lecker. Von meinem Zimmer mit Dachterasse hatten wir einen super Ausblick. Es war alles perfekt
- Marie (9/5): - Very nice stay at this place. Everything was very clean and well maintained. The breakfast was delicious, and the people were super friendly and welcoming. The location is also excellent, making it easy to get around. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it
- Ilaria (10/5): -
- Wegis (9/5): - Das Frühstück war besonders lecker. ...
- Antony (9/5): Excellent! - Very welcoming. Fantastic food.
- Fabian (10/5): ein guter Ort um Kandy zu entdecken. - Unterkunft Villa 49 ist wirklich eine Reise wert. Sie liegt ideal, um die Tempelanlage zu besichtigen und ist trotzdem etwas aus der Lärmzone der Stadt. Sie besticht durch eine schöne Ausstattung mit hochwertigen Möbeln und stilsicheren Geschmack. Die Gastgeberin ist eine kluge und gebildete Frau. Sie hat sich wunderbar um uns gekümmert. Die Angestellten waren sehr freundlich. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. nichts
- Claire (9/5): - Best hoppers we have had in Sri Lanka! Location is excellent for all of the main attractions of Kandy. Being able to eat home cooked in the hotel is a really nice touch. Views from the balcony are lovely. The owner is really helpful and her staff too.
- Ruth (9/5): -
- Tedesco (9/5): - Very Nice personal, nice View and good Location (15 min to City)
- Katharine (10/5): Oasis of calm - Lovely calm atmosphere. We were offered tea in arrival. Beautiful decor and garden and delicious food
- Carol (7/5): -
- Yulia (10/5): - Отличная вилла в тихом месте в двух шагах от озера. Терраса в номере - это просто сказка! Номер красиво оформлен и очень комфортен для проживания (даже длительного - есть удобный шкаф для вещей, и вообще вся мебель очень удобная).
Прекрасные завтраки с фруктами, очень вкусный кофе.
Спасибо, это были чудесные дни! Хотелось бы,чтобы под раковиной.вла полка для косметических принадлежностей)))
- Sam (9/5): Beautiful and relaxing - Super cosy and chic hotel with very friendly staff, exceptional breakfast (the rotis were delicious!) and comfortable bed. We had a great night’s sleep here.
Shower pressure and temperature were fantastic.
Location was excellent and we felt very calm and secluded above the hubbub of Kandy. Nothing but some might find the bathroom a tiny bit small. But overall we loved it.
- aurelie (8/5): Un séjour agréable à Kandy - accueil chaleureux - Une jolie maison coloniale sur les hauteurs de Kandy, à 15’ du temple de la dent et 5´ à pied du lac.
Une famille profondément généreuse tant dans son accueil que dans le partage, un petit déjeuner sri lankais délicieux cuisiné devant nous ! un grand merci 🙏 La chambre familiale est grande avec une belle terrasse, elle pourrait être rafraîchie, notamment la salle de bain
- Claudia (9/5): -
- Bert (10/5): Samenvattend: fantastisch! - Heerlijk rustige locatie en toch vlakbij het centrum. De Tempel van de Tand is op loopafstand. De kamers zijn prima en sfeervol ingericht. Irath is zeer charmant en vriendelijk in de bediening. Het eten (zowel rijst en curry als internationaal eten) is voortreffelijk. De gastvrouw is zeer behulpzaam en zorgzaam. Het kleine restaurant is zeer decoratief ingericht en ademt een rustige sfeer uit. Na een drukke dag in Kandy voelt het als thuiskomen. We hebben genoten van de liefdevolle aandacht.
Nog een extra tip: vraag om chauffeur Anurada. Hij heeft ons een onvergetelijke dag bezorgd. Weet ongelooflijk veel, zeer behulpzaam en in alle opzichten een uitmuntende gids. Het was een top verblijf. -
- SERGEI (7/5): - Всё классно, но то же самое можно получить и за меньшую цену
- Jane (10/5): Excellent - We loved Villa 49. The staff could not have been more helpful and friendly and the food was amazing. We got upgraded and stayed two nights instead of one as it was so good. The location was excellent for town. Nothing, we were very happy with everything.
- Patricia (10/5): - Excellent service. Tastefully decorated and lovely staff. Very close to the lake without the noise. All was great.
- Péter (10/5): -
- Christensen (10/5): Eine Wohlfühloase - Das grosse Zimmer war ausserordentlich gemütlich und geschmacksvoll eingerichtet. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.
Die Lage ist perfekt, um Kandy zu entdecken, da der See und der Zahntempel in Gehdistanz sind.
Das Personal war unglaublich freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Gastgeberin hat uns wertvolle Tipps gegeben und uns einen Fahrer organisiert.
Das frisch zubereitete Essen war sehr lecker!
- de Rooij (8/5): We wanted to stay longer, the host and other peope were so kind and warm hearted and the room was excellent - Kindness of the People, the upgrade and the view and spacious room. Nothing to mention!
- Ian (10/5): Sri Lankan hospitality at the highest level. - Villa 49 was the epitome of a family that truly and wholeheartedly cares about their guests like family.
This was evident in the initial communications and throughout our stay. We were upgraded to the family room which was beautiful, light, incredible views from the balcony and spotlessly clean. Thank you.
We had dinner which was freshly prepared and traditional Sri Lanka cooking which was out of this world and breakfast was traditional egg hoppers, also very tasty.
In a nutshell - Beautiful hosts, 100% Sri Lanka hospitality, great food, great room, fantastic location. That we could only stay one night.
- Shreyas Vasuki (10/5): Great hosts, great good and a great property to spend leisure time - The property is well maintained. The hosts are very welcoming and guest friendly. Nothing as such
- anna (10/5): - We travelled as a family of three — my husband, our son, and I — and were looking for a hotel with comfortable accommodation. The room turned out to be very cozy and convenient. It was our first hotel in Sri Lanka, and for getting to know the country it was the perfect choice.
We had a beautiful view from the window, and there was a tuk-tuk driver who always arrived with just a call from the welcoming hostess. By the way, please send our warm greetings to the tuk-tuk driver — he was very responsive to our requests and suggested great places to visit.
All the staff at the hotel were incredibly kind and friendly.
In short, we were truly happy to spend our days in Kandy at this hotel! All is ok
- Barbara (9/5): Sehr stilvoll eingerichtete und persönlich geführte Unterkunft. - Sehr stilvoll eingerichtete Unterkunft in sehr guter Lage in der Nähe des Sees- man kann zu Fuß zum Tempel laufen. Die Gastgeberin war äußerst nett und sehr engagiert. Sie hat uns mit extrem leckerem Essen und wertvollen Informationen ausserhalb der üblichen touristischen Pfade versorgt. Absolute Empfehlung für diese Unterkunft- wir würden auf jeden Fall wieder buchen. Nichts!
- Mark (8/5): - A very large and comfortable room with a medium size bed and an extra sofa bed. The room opened to a large outdoor patio overlooking the city which was very nice. An in house laundry service was available which was appreciated. The hostess was very welcoming and gracious. The bathroom was a bit small and in need of updating. There really was no restaurant or menu but the owner cooked breakfast of her choosing and an optional dinner of her choosing. There is a very steep staircase which for people with mobility issues could be a real problem.
- Stephanie (9/5): - Die Besitzerin Shanani hat uns sehr unterstützt und uns bei jeglichen Aktivitäten geholfen. Das Zimmer war sehr geräumig mit toller Aussicht. Zum Frühstück gab es egghoppers, die sehr lecker waren. Das Team der Villa 49 ist super freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Man kann zu Fuß zum Tempel laufen. Zur Sicherheit gegen die Äffchen geht die Balkontür automatisch zu. Auch wenn wir dort keine Äffchen gesehen haben.
Insgesamt ein schöner Aufenthalt Nichts
- Daniel (9/5): -
- Krishnadas K. M. Känzig (10/5): Eine traumhafte und ästhetische Oase unweit des Kandy Lake mit guten Seelen. - Villa ist absolut der richtige Ausdruck! Das geschmackvoll eingerichtete Anwesen zusammen mit dem tropischen Garten und natürlich das geräumige Zimmer ist schon ein Traum. Hinzu kommt das ausgesprochen freundliche Personal und die herzliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeberin! Und das absolut leckere Essen! Super Lage unweit vom See. Einfach brillant und perfekt!
- Paula (9/5): - This is like a home from home accommodation, very cozy and typically Sri Lankan. The bed was really comfortable, had a great night's sleep after 6 hour train ride. Lovely breakfast too. We had the top roo with a great decking area that was huge.
- David (9/5): Shanani was the perfect host, always concerned about your needs.her staff was friendly and accommodating it was one of - Quaint, old style as we like it. The balcony sundeck was great and saw a couple neat birds. Very relaxing Could use more electrical outlets in room for charging
- Tushar Mohan (9/5): It has amazing facilities and the pasta in excellent - The property was clean and cosy . We stayed there for one day and it was an amazing place . There were so many birds around you could do bird spotting also it has a Mountain and village View Nothing
- Hugh (8/5): Great little cozy place to stay. Very hospitable and great location! - Lovely views and kind service.
- Margarita (10/5): - Отель расположен в центре, в пешей доступности до достопримечательностей и озера. Сама вилла - настоящая находка. Интерьер, который бесконечно хочется рассматривать и потрясающая команда. Если будем еще раз в Канди - обязательно вернемся.
- Iris (9/5): - très confortable, excellent accueil, petit déjeuner copieux et excellent. Une excellent étape dans notre séjour!
- Steve (10/5): Excellent - Excellent place and service end view.
Shanani is just great
Highly recommended
- Paul (8/5): Comfortable and clean, tasty, healthy breakfasts as well as an interested and helpful host and team. - All the staff were wonderful. Shanani (the manager) contacted us a few days before our arrival date offering to arrange transport to get us to the property. We ended up not needing this, but it was a kind gesture. She also gave us lots of local information which was useful as we were only in Kandy for a couple of days. The breakfasts were Sri Lankan and delicious. Nothing was too much trouble, and everything served with a smile. We regret not arranging to eat an evening meal at the accommodation as I’m sure it would have been delicious. Never mind - next time! The guesthouse is a ten minute walk from the Temple of the Tooth, and also for the Kandy Dance sessions, albeit down a busy, fast road, without a pavement ….. take a torch if you are going out in the evenings! It’s on the opposite side of town for the market though - so a bit more of a walk, or you can always catch a tuk tuk. The room was a good size and comfortable, with air conditioning. Nothing
- Pol (10/5): Wij kunnen dit verblijf alleen maar aanbevelen! Nette, ruime kamers, vriendelijk personeel. - Heel vriendelijk personeel, warm onthaal, lekker ontbijt en 's avonds typisch Sri Lankese keuken die voldoende gevarieerd was. Het hotel is bovendien rustig gelegen en toch vlakbij wandelafstand van het centrum. Het contact met Shanani was bovendien heel onderhoudend. We onthouden de leuke gesprekken! Wij kregen bovendien een mooie upgrade van onze kamer wegens laag seizoen. Dat was mooi meegenomen. Geen enkele opmerking.
- Andrea (10/5): - Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen, insbesondere das von der Gastgeberin selber hergestellten Nachtessen sowie das Frühstück waren einfach extrem lecker - herzlichen Dank. Die Gastgeberin hat sich wunderbar um uns gekümmert und uns verschiedene Tipps zu unserer Reise durch Sri Lanka gegeben. Das Zimmer ist sehr stilvoll eingerichtet - wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.
- Pei Hua (9/5): - Everything is good and beyond expectation. Located a bit remote from the town.
- Myka (8/5): -
- Sarah (10/5): I would highly recommend staying at Villa 49 in Kandy!! Very close to the Temple and lake! - The hospitality and the food were superb! There was nothing that I didn't like.
