Aitken Spence in Kandy from NZ$155

"Hotel Cassendra was a real find. The staff were so lovely and really couldn't do enough to make my stay more pleasant. No question or request was too great or small for them. It is up a steep hill so.wpuld make quite a hike from Kandy but its maybe 300 rupees in a tuk tuk to get up. Very easy to walk down into Kandy however, and it also passes the viewpoint. When you get to the Royal park, there is a lane to the right of it and that ia a handy shortcut into town. It's honesly only a 10min walk. Rooms were lovely, really smart. Breakfast a little limited but it did vary each day and there was something for everyone. Overall it was just great value for money and nice to be set back a little bit off the main drag in Kandy. "

"A truely Victorian experience. The hotel has kept all its original charm while adding modern luxuries where needed. "

"The Hotel has some out dated fittings and furniture but for the price I paid this place was pretty good . The rooms were very spacious and the staff was very attentive. "

"The staff were very nice, the room was very comfortable. The bar was fine, however I ordered hot butter mushrooms and got what i think was aubergine covered in something very heavy"
