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,...

Comfortable Stay with Amazing Views and Outstanding Service in Kandy
We had a wonderful stay at Summit Hotel in Kandy. The decor all throughout the property has been thoughtfully put together.
The room was lovely and very spacious, with an amazing view that made the stay extra special. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful — Pradeep and the rest of the team truly went out of their way to assist us with anything we needed.
The newly installed Starlink WiFi worked perfectly...

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...

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....

We enjoyed our stay here. The only thing that was disappointing was… I thought breakfast was included. It wasn’t until I went to check out that I found out it wasn’t when an additional $30.00 USD was charged to my credit card.

We are a Sri Lankan-American family, and we vacationed in Sri Lanka during the summer of 2024. From the moment we booked with The Radh Hotel, we knew we would love our stay. The hotel was quaint, the staff was extremely attentive, and our stay was peaceful. My father, who is a 75-year-old Sri Lankan native, has severe Alzheimer's disease and the staff at The Radh took extra care to attend to his needs and make him feel safe and welcome.

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!

This is an excellent property at a beautiful location with great views. The breakfast I had here was one of the better ones I had in SL. The staff is very friendly and responsive. The rooms were clean and spacious.
The only thing I will mention is getting to this place is through a km of very narrow hilly road. Trust your driver and hopefully you do not have too big of a car. Once you get here, the view and the resort is worth it. Minimize the up and down trips to city of Kandy from here if you...

While Kandy itself is nestled in the lush hills of Sri Lanka, it offers a unique opportunity to easily access beautiful beaches within a few hours' drive. Travelers can explore the stunning beaches of Bentota, known for its soft golden sands and thrilling water sports, including jet skiing and windsurfing. A visit to the tranquil shores of Hikkaduwa invites families to snorkel among vibrant coral reefs, ideal for kids to discover the underwater world. The picturesque town of Galle, with its historic fort and charming historic architecture, is perfect for a day trip, where you can stroll along the ramparts and enjoy local seafood at beachside restaurants. For a more relaxed vibe, the beaches of Unawatuna offer shallow waters, making it a safe spot for children to splash about while parents unwind in cozy beach cafes. To enhance your experience, consider staying at hotels in Kandy's surrounding areas, where you can enjoy the serene landscape and return to the vibrant city to explore the Temple of the Tooth or take a peaceful stroll around the lake. The convenience of being close to both the mountains and the coast allows for an enriching family getaway, ensuring that every moment spent in this beautiful region is memorable.
