Guest Reviews
- Vikki (7/5): Good experience for sure but not what we expected - Whilst the view was gorgeous it was extremely difficult to find and better suited to mountain goats !
Great pool and dining area
Close to Botanical Gardens however 25 min drive to centre of Kandy and Lake
Staff were extremely accomodating and tried super hard to make our stay lovely No easy accessibility to anything
Need a Uber or Pick Me app to get around
Close to Botanical Gardens however 25 min drive to centre of Kandy and Lake
Electrical points and switches need reviewing
- Ilse (9/5): -
- Maaike Stevens (9/5): Prachtig en sfeervol hotel - Prachtige locatie, hotel is mooier dan op de foto's, heel sfeervol, prachtige tuin. Wij hadden de twee bovenste kamers, en de hele bovenverdieping voor onszelf. Enige wat goed is om te weten is dat de weg naar het hotel heel steil is, voor auto's en tuktuks een uitdaging.
- Marloes (8/5): Leuk hotel met mooi uitzicht - Mooie ligging met prachtig uitzicht, vriendelijk personeel, lekkere curry als avondeten Het hotel is een beetje lastig te vinden en iets verder van de stad. Als je er eenmaal bent, is het fijn
- Lukas (9/5): - Sehr nettes Personal, leckeres Frühstück und tolle Aussicht😊...
- Carolien (8/5): - Fijn hotel, aardig personeel. Heel goede prijs kwaliteit. Heerlijk ontbijt, fijn zwembad!
- Darren (8/5): Very good - Our room was sufficient for us and the two kids. Nice balcony with view. Air con worked well. The kids enjoyed the swimming pool.
The dining area was amazing. Good food and a nice vibe.
- Mae (9/5): Superb! - Glorious vistas from the dining area & our room. Eclectic, quirky decor. Excellent breakfast- loved the omelette & string hoppers. Danushka & team were fantastic hosts! Thank you! Tricky roads to the hotel. However, in hindsight, had we noticed & followed the signs posted at junctions, we would have found the hotel easily.
- Buddhika (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tania (8/5): Very good - Wonderful views above the city. Staff were super friendly, and the breakfast was delicious. And extra pillow would have been nice but not a biggie.
- Martin (8/5): Very good - Great view, beautiful sunsets, quiet location, helpful staff, delicious dinner and breakfast. A little noisier rooms on the first floor but clean with a terrace. Satisfaction
- Marta (10/5): Exceptional - Very friendly staff, quite big variety for breakfast, rooms are very stylish
- Sarah (8/5): Very good -
- Fuad (7/5): Good - Very friendly staff ,,, Far from town center
- Sarah (10/5): Loved every min of it. Was only a short stay but for value of money location and kindness of the owner and staff this is - The property was tucked up in the hills away from the smoggy town. The view was over the valley and it was nestled deep in nature.. the staff were all so friendly and accommodating even letting us use the kitchen… My only fault was the pillows smelt a little damp but on the grand scale of things this was extremely minor.
- Aleksandra (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing people, delicious food, lovely view!
- Dahami (5/5): Passable -
- Bernard (8/5): Very good - Beautiful view from my balcony. My room was clean on arrival and facilities were adequate for my needs.
Breakfast and evening meals were good and my host, the manager, and his staff were all friendly and keen to please. Perhaps a little too inaccessible in its location away from town for Pick me and Uber drivers.
Would have liked at least one more usable socket in the room as I had to share the kettle with my charger and the mosquito deterrent.
- Marcel (9/5): Superb - What a view over the city of Kandy, this, combined with the knowledgeable host is all we needed to have two pleasant days. The staff is very helpful, the food wonderful and the room we had spacious for the five of us. The spectacular view is because of how high the hotel is situated. It is therefore nearly impossible to walk to any destination and a tuk tuk ride is almost scary if you're from a flat country.
- Lily (10/5): Best choice in Kandy 😀 - It's a very very charming boutique hotel. It has an Italian design. The manager speaks good English and knows what hospitality is. He organised everything for us, was genuine interested and made us feel very welcome. The breakfast is also good. And it's easy in this hotel to also meet other travellers (with families).
The views from the hotel are stunning, it's a little bit out of the city center but therefore also nice and quiet.
- Roderik (10/5): Exceptional - Spacious room with an awesome view of the sunset over the Kandy valley. Very nice host that caters to your every need. The road up to the Change is a bit steep and narrow so beware if you are driving.
- Abdul (10/5): Exceptional - Ravindra staff was very helpful. I forgot my adapter in colombo but he arranged 1 for me late night.
- Phillip (9/5): Peaceful location - The location is away from the hustle & bustle of Kandy. The host met us on arrival and was courteous throughout our short overnight stay.
The food served at dinner and breakfast was of a good standard and plenty. The shower in our room was only a trickle (water pressure?) and cold only.
- Shameer (9/5): Superb -
- Karin (8/5): Very good - The view was good. The food was nice. Also there was a little Pool. Friendly staff. No shops or restaurants nearby.
- Perera (10/5): Exceptional -
- Katie (10/5): Beautiful views and a relaxing stay - The staff were amazing! So nice and helpful. The room was big and exactly as advertised. We loved the balcony to watch the sunset. The kids loved cooling off in the pool after a long day. It’s definitely an interesting drive up the hill from Kandy but so worth it for the views. The food was excellent! It is cash only so just make sure you bring enough ahead of time. Definitely recommend this hotel!
- Jacob (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful property! The staff were INCREDIBLE!! They helped so much and were so friendly. We would absolutely stay here again.
- Norman (9/5): Superb - The property was high above the city and had a beautiful view of the area. The drive up to the hotel was on steep small roads, so it was not conveniently located, but we managed to get a nice tour of Kandy.
- Katrin (10/5): Relaxing… - Wonderful view, great food and lovely staff!
- Kaddouri (8/5): Very good -
- Fatima (10/5): Good stay - Very lovely hotel, very peaceful, good view overlooking the pool and mountains. Clean. Friendly staff. Breakfast was great. Incline getting up to the hotel, tuktuk struggled alittle bit. Finding the hotel on locations was difficult. Cannot really order food from pickme. Hotel has a restaurant.
- Minoo (8/5): Very good - the location is very quiet and peaceful. very nice pool and staff . good for max 3 days. internet wasn’t available in the room and they only accept cash . far away from center.
- Claire (10/5): Stunning views, comfy room and friendly staff. - The Change Hotel was exactly what we were looking for. a locally run hotel with incredible views from its hilltop location. Our family room slept 2 adults and 2 children comfortably with an amazing view of the valley and mountains surrounding the area. There is a swimming pool perfect for a dip after a hot day sightseeing. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Highly recommend and would come back. nothing
- Chamara (10/5): Exceptional -
- David (9/5): HOW TO FALL IN LOVE WITH SRI LANKA - such a lovely boutique home stay hotel! the view of the whole valley, the lovely rooms, the few floors with opened corridors and balconies, the dining room that opens to the pool down the few stairs!! and of course the lovely owner and his great guys always so sweet, so helpful, with such a cool and relax attitude! loved it!!!!! nothing to dislike about it!
very good value for money!!
go for it!
- Youssef (8/5): Very good - The location was convenient..the room view was great..the staff were outstanding...the breakfast was modest but just what we needed. I would highly recommend it. Everything was great.
