Guest Reviews
- Tamarasiri (10/5): -
- Godfried (7/5): - Very nice and hulpful manager I wad here 10 years ago. Tje place lost its charm
- M (10/5): - Todo perfecto
- Syed (7/5): -
- chie (10/5): - The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room didn't have Wi-Fi firstly but after I asked for help, they set up connection for me :) The buidling and infrastructure is a bit old. The view from the terrace was superb. Though the site is far from the city central, you can find some nice restraurants and bakeries within 10 min walk.
- Barbora (7/5): -
- Roderick (9/5): Superb - Owners were very helpful. Nice view of the mountains from the balcony or up on the rooftop terrace. Not too far from the lake / city centre
- Guillaume (6/5): - Le couple est parfait, d'une grande gentillesse. Le petit déjeuner local est très bon et copieux. Par contre, l'hôtel en lui-même est un peu dans son jus, il est resté bloqué dans les années 90. Pas de bouteille d'eau de bienvenue, rien pour la douche...
- Antoine (9/5): Superb - Good price for the location Confortable room
- Raman (7/5): Good -
- Antonio (5/5): Passable - Cloacal my the door at 10.00 PM Could be more clean
- Priscilla (10/5): - Gorgeous rooms and beautiful owners. Kumari & Joseph are so accomodating. The bus stops right in front of the path to the hotel, followed by an uphill stretch to reach the summit. So it's an easy & cheaper access to the city by bus. Highly recommended place to stay.
- Fabrizio (1/5): Very dirty and damaged bathroom. - Stink rooms...very bad smell.. Bed sheets not clean. No hot water, Bathroom not clean.there was used soap and condoms.. Spiders everywhere... Next door people can see our room.. No beautiful location or view.
- Chamari (2/5): Very poor - No restaurant Not updated about the Hotel details in booking.com app
- T.mayooran (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nathan (8/5): - Majestic Tourist Hotel is a clean, simple place for a short stay. There is a roof top restaurant, but closed during my stay.
- Marika (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mark (7/5): Good -
- Karol (7/5): Kandy - Kandy has good climate. During night no ACneeded. Helpfull owner which helped us organize tickets for Kandys dance Performance at lower then standard price. Any information needed can be answered by ownera. Sometimes internet gets very slow. The location is some 2.7 km from transport facilities- bus/train station, but there is bus stop for local buses close.
- Mahesh (10/5): Exceptional -
- Thomas (6/5): Pleasant - Bedsheets need a cleaning, better desinfection, Host does not understand a washing with high temperature.
- Shirley (7/5): Good - Joseph was very helpful. The bed was comfortable. Nice to have a balcony. Easy enough to get into town either bus, tuk tuk or walking. Lovely seeing the monkeys play on the opposite hotel in the morning. Only one plug socket & that was dodgy. Joseph became a bit too helpful to the point that he wouldn't leave us alone on a journey into town and we had to become quite rude & tell him to leave us alone.
- Perera (7/5): Good -
- Sarah (7/5): Off the main road, so was nice and quiet with free entertainment from the Toque Macaque monkeys - Staff were very friendly and welcoming Nothing
- Svetlana (10/5): Exceptional -
- Arul (6/5): Pleasant - Manager is very good person...friendly and helpful person.... Night time i feel some disturbnce. Some one knock the room at midnight......no security in entrance....

- Gimhan (5/5): Passable - Cheap price and location is good . Checkout time show in the website for 11AM and they tell us the morning you need to check out before 9.30AM. And he say he want to charge another day payment for if we stay in here after 9.30AM. We Check in 12.30PM in the previous day. We confuse in the morning that owner talk to us.
- Yoshi. (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nidarshana (3/5): Poor -
- Ravishan (8/5): Value for money - Good breakfast
- Yamasami (9/5): Great View of the Birds! - The owners were very nice. Whenever we had a question or concern, they were right there to help. For example, they let us borrow a knife as well as a plug converter/adapter and they fixed a light bulb that wasn't working. They also told us about the fantastic daily bird migrations to and from the lake that you can easily watch from the rooftop. It takes about 30 minutes to walk from the property to the center of town so you don't really need any kind of transportation. Wifi worked pretty well. I enjoyed my stay and would stay there again. The towels were a little thin. No free toilet paper. Lighting in the room was a bit low. Outlet connections worked fine but were a touch loose. The place is rather old-fashioned (but that didn't bother us).
- Emily (9/5): great hotel, good value - location, price and nice people didn’t have toilet paper
- Kalpa (9/5): Superb -
- Ganesh (9/5): Superb - Hospitality Almost all okay
- Dhanushka (5/5): Passable -
- Erik (10/5): Great Place - Very friendly and helpful owner-managers, who gave me some great tips as well as lots of cultural information which I found really interesting. Fabulous views. Good Wi-Fi. Would have stayed longer if I could have. Nothing I can think of.
- Kumar (9/5): Superb -
- Jay (9/5): Perfect for a peaceful stay. - hotel very peaceful and clean. The staff is helpful and very nice. thank you Joseph A little far from the center, particularly when it rains and the tuk tuks are even more dishonnest than usual.
- Subbu21 (8/5): Value for money - Friendly hosts, happy for a chit chat and a friendly advice. Owner did guide me about restaurants near by, Temple visit formalities, my next destination plans etc... To top it up... He even exchanged forex .. i did not had to go to the city to get it exchanged WiFi was not in range in the room allocated to me (even tho advertised) alternatively had to go to top terrace to access WiFi
- Lion (5/5): Passable -
- Prasanna (2/5): Very poor -
- Desmond (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dilshan (7/5): Good -
- Thiwanka (9/5): Superb - Good place to stay in Kandy. Staff and rooms are very good Clean and value for the money.
- Rohan (8/5): Very good -
- Salman (9/5): Superb -
- Mallika (8/5): Modest, clean, good value, friendly proprietor - Modest, clean, good value
- Riccardo (10/5): Good accommodation in Kandu - Very helpfull couple running the place. Very good dinners and b'fasts ( early if required). Good prices. Very quite, out of the cahotic centre, but 200 lkr with tuk tuk
- Lars (10/5): Bo här - Trevligt ställe ligger en liten bitbfrån centrum men det är enkelt att gå. Fantastisk utsikt från restaurangen uppe på taket
- Happy (8/5): - Great location, lovely views from the roof terrace restaurant.. Our host was very pleasant and helpful.The hotel had a kind of faded charm which could maybe do with updating
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Loved this place! Within minutes of arriving I got a quick run-down of what to see, how to get there, what to do (and not to do) as a solo woman traveller, and got a discounted ticket to the Kandy cultural dance. After spending the previous night a very noise Kandy hotel, it was a godsend to arrive here! The location is great - within walking distance of many sites (it's a walk up-hill to get back). A bus runs nearby too. And the night-time views from the rooftop terrace restaurant are beautiful! Good food. This hotel has a good number of floors, and the restaurant is on top, so be prepared to climb a lot of stairs if you stay here. Wifi is available in the restaurant. If I ever return to Kandy, I'll be coming back to this hotel for sure.
- Ashley (10/5): Great vaule - Strong wifi, great breakfast, hot water, clean room, a balcony, and friendly staff. Small restaurants and stores for snack 10 mins away. A 25-minute walk from the main sight (temple), tuk-tuk and buses are easy to catch.
- Kenneth (8/5): - The owner was great, the terrace upstairs was nice for some of his delicious cooking!Internet was only available in the restaurant .The beds were not too comfortable, the plumbing could use some work in our room. Nice host , location and views!
- Roger (8/5): Honous review - The hotel requires major upgrade as the furniture are too old after 20 years. The breakfast is good.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Excellent hotel - A good location with a beautiful view . Rooms are big and clean. The food is very good. The showers are the best ( good hot water pressure) .The hotel is situated only a few meteres from lake and kandy city centre . joseph and kumari ( owners) are very kindhearted and they really take good care of there guests.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Friendly and reliable service. - The Majestic is 500m from the lake where you can enjoy a nice walking, the staff very friendly. They also offer for their guest tickets with discount to Kandy an Dance. Even is not in the center of town you get a lot of choices of bus.
- Daniel (10/5): - Great little place just outside the city centre. Staff were brilliant and friendly
- Harpreet Singh (10/5): Best deal in Kandy - Nice hotel with good location. Very good view from roof top. Clean and well ventilated rooms with ample sunlight. The owners Mr. Joseph and Mrs. Kumari are excellent people and very hospitable. This was my second stay in this hotel and I really loved it. I would highly recommend this hotel for all individuals and families travelling to Kandy.
- jeroen (8/5): Fijn hotel - Eenvoudig hotel, maar zeer goed bevallen. Schone kamer, op loopafstand van het meer, erg vriendelijke eigenaresse, prima eten. Zouden hier zeker terugkomen.
- vitalij (10/5): хороший отель - Чистый номер, отличный вид из окна на горы, хорошее обслуживание. Расположение не очень удобное, но не далеко ездит общественный транспорт, до основных достопримечательностей на тук туке ~ 2€
- Russell (10/5): Clean hotel great rooftop restaurant with views - Owners Kumani & Joseph were exceptionaly welcomley & helpful with local information and other matters regarding our interests in gardens. Staff were fantastic. Lovely people.
- Marcus (6/5): Potential - The hotel has been leased to some NGO's for the last 6 mnths and they are in the process of getting it back on it's feet. It hurts me to say as the owners and staff are very nice people but I have to be honest. The position is good in as much as it is quiet but it's a 10 minute walk to a reasonable selection of shops and perhaps 20 minutes to town. The biggest disappointment for us was the pricing at the restaurant. Ridiculously high in my opinion, 3 times the prices outside. The advertised full english breakfast was a juice, coffee, many pieces of toast, jam and one egg. It's a good place that will definitely become even better. I can't stress enough how kind and helpful the owners and staff were and that counts for a lot.
