"We drove past The Trees on our first trip to Kandy and were particularly impressed by the beautiful architecture and the walls covered with solid wood panels. We haven't been disappointed by the room, the nice view from the balcony, nor the à la carte options during our short stay. We didn't get to enjoy the stunning rooftop pool overlooking the lake on that rainy day unfortunately but look forward to another stay to do so."
