"It is away from the hustle and bustle of the town, which was great. But there was some sort of loud music or karaoke in the evening that was unexpected and went until 11 pm. "
"My room was spacious clean and modern. It was very safe and quiet. Breakfast was provided and was excellent. It is located 15 minute walk up steep road from city centre. Easy walking down and cheap uber tuk tuk ride back up the hill after leaving city center. I highly recommend this hotel when staying in Kandy."
"Unique home near Kandy railway station. Friendly owner giving practical tips and arranging transport to the station. Delicious breakfast at the terrace with beautiful view on the city and surroundings."

If you're arriving via train in the dark, make sure you know how you're getting to your accommodation. We liked the cultural dance, botanical gardens (short drive out), and slightly chilled lounge for a sunset beer on a rooftop.

Nature and Greenery blended with City Life - wonderful place to spend a few days.

We liked the beautiful lake and Temple of the Tooth but were disappointed by food options in town: reviews are either too generous to say the least or just fake or perhaps given by people who knows little how to eat well!

Like everywhere in Sri Lanka the tuk tuk drivers are very intense and try to upsell on everything. Very interesting historical areas, temple of the tooth is great.

Not terribly exciting or attractive old city, but a good setting off point for day trips eg to the tea plantations and Nuwara Eliya, and Surigiya.
"Cassendra staff eere welcoming and helpful - even before I arrived. They helped me find affordable transport for a day trip and when needed were able to serve my dinner extra quickly. Wifi was touch and go but ultimately held for a few video calls. The hotel is a bit old but rooms are spacious and clean with great bathrooms.
The location is know to tuktuk drivers and the mountain offers amazing views. Its also very close to the best Kandyan dancers (5 min walk) and a view point!"
"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. "
"Beautiful location, really lovely rooms and the staff simply can not do enough for you. The location is a bit outside of kandy about 10 to 15 minute tuk tuk ride but the prices for food and drinks are very good value and the view is amazing so we only ventured out at night once over our 3 nights. "
"The staff was very accommodating and made our stay really pleasant.
The only complaint i had was that the bathroom fittings were leaking and there were some stains on the bedding which caused us to get the staff to be called multiple times"
