Built in an ancient Colonial-period Bungalow, The Elephant Stables is a beautiful property overlooking Kandy’s lush greenery. It welcomes guests with an outdoor swimming pool and cozy guestrooms.

The property is beautiful, immersed in nature and with stunning views on the hills. The staff was great and extremely accommodating to our last minute change of plans. Breakfast was delicious. Perfect for a cozy and relaxing getaway.

    It's a very very charming boutique hotel. It has an Italian design. The manager speaks good English and knows what hospitality is. He organised everything for us, was genuine interested and made us feel very welcome. The breakfast is also good. And it's easy in this hotel to also meet other travellers (with families). The views from the hotel are stunning, it's a little bit out of the city center but therefore also nice and quiet.

    In the hills outside of Kandy with amazing views. Stunning design with clever use of glass to maximise the views. Pool was again designed well and very refreshing. Use of recycled bottles to make vertical plant wall clever by pool. The food was excellent, and service excellent. Relaxed atmosphere . We stayed in the penthouse which was incredibly spacious and a beautiful room, great for a family. Lovely touches like chocolate gift after supper.

    The overall design conception of Sanatha Suwaya is stunning and only furthers the deep, meditative experience of staying here. The place is absolutely beautiful with stunning views of the mountains. I liked it so much I didn’t leave during my two nights stay! Michael is an amazing yoga/meditation teacher and so helpful, as were all the staff. A really beautiful and tranquil place at a very affordable price. Thank you!

    This hotel is a 5 star boutique hotel at a very good price. The architecture and decor are stunning. And the staff is absolutely delightful. The views are magical like everywhere in Kandy, but this place is very special.

    I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The views from my room were breathtaking, offering an amazing view of the mountains. The room was large and comfortable with a modern interior design which added a touch of luxury to my experience. The hotel’s convenient location to the city made exploring landmarks and attractions a breeze. The staff was also very friendly and accommodating. They made me a delicious breakfast based on my preferences. I highly recommend staying here when visiting Kandy.

    Stunning location, right beside the river. Very quiet and secluded. It is more than worth to be outside Kandy around 10 km. Big pool for relaxing after sightseeing and in the evening trees are illuminated. Boutique character with only 26 rooms. Newest Jetwing property operating since 2020, interior design is fantastic and new. Wonderful breakfasts.

    We had a very lovely stay! We loved the well designed modern room, it was very clean and comfortable. We also loved the gorgeous view from the balcony - pure unspoiled nature! The area is very quiet, totally in the hills and yet a quick tuktuk away from kandy. We enjoyed a walk around the lovely neighborhood. The food was great, local sri Lankan cuisine. We got filtered water at the house so we didn't buy bottled water, which is much more sustainable. We highly Hanathana house for your home base in the kandy region!

    Breathtaking views of the mountains from your room. Absolutely beautiful boutique hotel, incredibly peaceful and well equipped. The rooms were gorgeous, comfortable and clean. The views were truly unbeatable and the balcony allows you privacy to appreciate the true beauty. The two lovely guys running the place were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our time there and the food was incredible too! The rooftop was the perfect place to get photos of the stunning sunset! Only wish we could’ve stayed longer!
