Top Handessa Hotel Reviews

Recent Reviews in Handessa

Grand Serendib Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was spacious, clean, well-organized, and featured a sleek, modern design. The absolute highlight was the views—simply amazing from everywhere we went, including the room, restaurant, bar, and pool. The buffet breakfast was delicious with plenty of variety. A special shoutout to Pingsara, who provided truly outstanding service, alongside the rest of the friendly and attentive staff. The location is ideal: perched on the hill so it’s easy for cars to access, yet still well within short walking distance of the town center, shops, and restaurants. Highly recommended!"

Cassendra Kandy

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fantastic day at Hotel Cassandra. The staff was exceptionally friendly, professional, and accommodating, with Darshana and Iwantha particularly distinguishing themselves. The rooms were maintained beautifully, stylish, and stunning. The food was delicious and served quickly. We look forward to visiting Hotel Cassandra again on our next holiday."

Hotel Elephant Park

10/10 Excellent

"The elephants were great but we were not told about check in being after 3.00pm and early arrival would have to pay an entrance fee! To add to the confusion the hotel emailed me cancelling my 4 rooms at 2.00pm. When I contacted them, no apology just that it was a mistake!"
