"Nice friendly staff, good breakfast, location is up a hill around 15min walk to the centre, it is in the jungle so expect the odd ant and spider in the shower lol. Overall good value for money ideal for a short stay."

"A reasonably priced hotel. Staff were helpful and kind. From the main road to the hotel roads are narrow and winding, understandably since Kandy is a hill country city. "

"Super freundlicher Empfang, die Leute sind mega herzlich und nett. Wir hatten das ein Zimmer mit Aussicht, was sehr toll war. Man sieht ins Grüne. Für nach Kandy kann man ein TukTuk nehmen oder auch den Hügel runterlaufen. Ich würde das Hotel sofort wieder buchen. Einzig das Badezimmer ist nicht so gross, hat uns aber nicht gestört. "

"Clean and extremely comfortable stay. The housekeepers were very accommodating. Whipped up a scrumptious dinner at short notice. Stunning pool. Would stay here again but must remember to bring essentials like coffee, tea and shampoo. "

On the plus side, it's a beautifully situated property, very nicely decorated, with tasty breakfast and good, caring service with a smile.
On the minus side, there is no noise insulation in the room at all, you will get very loud environmental noises leech into the room from outside all day and night. Luckily I brought earplugs so I wasn't bothered that much. There was a good amount of spider webs around the A/C and one live but small roach on the towel rack.
Overall it was a pleasant stay,...

This is a beautiful guest house away from the town center, about 5-10 minutes by car. Trigan and the staff were always very helpful. Breakfast was good. It can get cold in this area, so be prepared with jackets just in case

This property is pretty unique in its location, away from "the rest of the world". You really are in nature, surrounded by nothing else than rice paddies, lake, and such a variety of birds. It is peaceful, staff are very friendly and helpful, food is excellent and will accommodate vegetarian and gluten free needs. There is nothing I can fault our experience on!

We had always wanted to stay on a Tea Estate in the hills and this did not disappoint. A great tour of the estate was arranged either the Tea Estate Manager and was an excellent insight into how tea is grown and picked. Great views from the veranda. Staff most helpful.

This was an amazing stay! Cozy room, nice breakfast, clean facilities, and excellent staff. The views were incredible. Easy to get to the main sites if you had access to a vehicle. No complaints at all!
Note: The inn is up an extremely steep hill, so you'll need a vehicle to get there.

Besides the long steps up to our room, this was a very pleasant stay for my sisters and I. The owner was very nice and welcomed us. The property has such a beautiful view. The property itself is very cozy sitting on a hill. Every morning breakfast is served, fresh eggs, delicious toast, juice and tea. The owner's son was very friendly and engaged in a fun conversation in our room, very nice family. We stayed in the apartment that made us feel right at home. Thankyou for the great hospitality! I...

We accidentally found this fabulous hotel due to sudden change of our vacation plan. Hotel is located in very calm quiet area within 10 km from Sigiriya local ticketing office. We had an unexpectedly wonderful time in the hotel. The staff were very welcoming and supportive. Hotel has two well maintained pools and beautiful restaurant. Room and the whole hotel was very clean. Foods are so delicious as well. Highly recommend for couples or anyone would like to spend true relax time before or...

Just an excellent, excellent stay from start to finish in this historic Colonial building. Breakfast and dinner were delicious and the team really just was top notch and really cared about quality of food. The loft was a hit with the kids and the fine correction of loose tea was very much appreciated. We only stayed one night due to our itinerary, but would have loved to have stayed longer. The kids dipped their legs in the pool, but also didn't have the chance to swim due to time constraints....

I absolutely loved this place! My family and I stayed here for two nights while we were in Sri Lanka for our winter vacation. Prior to our arrival, the owner of the hotel contacted me, and asked if there was anything we needed to make our stay more enjoyable. He was able to arrange a fantastic tour and driver for our entire 11 day stay in the country!
