Villa Mount Melody in Kandy provides accommodations with a garden and a shared lounge. There's a private entrance at the guest house for the convenience of those who stay.

The place is very spacious, big rooms, balcony with gorgeous view. Hot shower and good breakfast. You have use of the kitchen downstairs although rooms do not have their own kit hen facilities as indicated. A great retreat from the city! The only thing is the location is a bit out of the way and taxi drivers have a hard time finding it.

Secret Heaven Kandy in Kandy provides accommodations with a garden and a shared lounge. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking, and free Wifi.

The view is stunning especially in the corner room! The property is kept to very high standards of cleanliness. The breakfast is amazing. The access to a shared kitchen/seating room is really a plus. Ganga, our host, is wonderful. Her cooking, attention to details and personality made our stay even better!

    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.

    The lake view and quiet location are delightful in the morning. The guest house thrives primarily due to its two fantastic hosts, who took excellent care of me. Enjoying a beer and discussing politics with them was a warm and welcoming experience. The recommended dance show is truly worth attending, even though the audience is predominantly white.

    The guesthouse is a beautiful house in a great location. You can easily walk towards the centre in less than 15 minutes! the room was comfortable and had a wonderful view. during night its cool and quiet. The owner is very kind and helpful. Breakfast was also very tasty, since he‘s a former chef. :) If you feel lonely, theres always the cat which loves to cuddle. I felt very peaceful and at home, highly recommend!

    The best place to stay in Kandy! The room is spacious and very comfortable, one of the best beds we’ve had in Sri Lanka! Breakfast is delicious. As the accommodation is located outside of the city center, it is very quiet and peaceful. The host is great, he took care of all our pick-ups in and around Kandy and gave great advice.

    Great hostel in Kandy. The staff was very attentive and friendly, kindly looking after us after some of the group fell sick after eating some bad food outside. The room was comfortable and clean, and the property is in a great location within walking distance to the temple and the downtown area.

    Our two hosts were remarkably friendly, attentive and helpful. While the accommodation is located on the outskirts of Kandy (and is thus very quiet - a big plus in our opinion), the city centre and all the major sights are easily reachable by tuktuk. Our corner room with a balcony had a beautiful view over the river and the surrounding countryside. The breakfast - especially the fresh fruit - was delicious, varied and more than we could eat.

    Lovely guesthouse with an absolutely charming and helpful hostess. We were warmly welcomed and felt comfortable right away. The accommodation is a bit outside the city center (about 10-15 minutes by tuktuk), which we really liked because it's peacefully quiet, and the huge balcony offers a wonderful view of the city. We opted to have dinner outside, but there were options available on-site as well. The breakfast was good and plentiful. If you want a short stop in Kandy without staying right in the city, this is the perfect place.
