Set within 34 km of Kandy Royal Botanic Gardens and 39 km of Kandy railway station in Pinnawala, Green Land Guest House features accommodation with seating area.

Very clean, good hospitality, large room. Excellent location, which should be promoted! ——— Negatives: facilities: Difficult to initially get hold of owner. Flat screen tv not working, no toiletries (except small bar of soap), no hairdryer, no Wifi: had to request: easily resolved. Electricity/power cut, no generator back up. Noisy wobbly ceiling fan. A/c didn’t switch off: too cold all night (battery of remote control flat?)

The best accomodation! Really friendly staff. Everything was clean. Beautiful terace with jungle view. They also provide breakfast/lunch/dinner if you want to. You can do the laundry there. We planned to stay one night, but in the end we stayed for two instead! There is a lot of shops and restaurants nearby, so everything you need is there!

Located in Peradeniya, Villa Tranquil Kandy features accommodation with air conditioning and access to a garden. This guest house provides free private parking and a shared kitchen.

The pool was the main attraction why I chose this property. The host was a kind gentleman and a helpful person. In general, it's a good place to stay. It's a quiet, hidden away place from all the hustle bustle.

    We made a great experience with our host, he is super kind person with a big heart and he did everything to feel comfortable. I love the treehouse in the garden 🪴 We took a tuktuk together and went to see some waterfalls (boella falls) And also to a herbal garden where you can buy some Ayurveda products. These are not cheap ones but we bought some and we will try it! We got super delicious breakfast and we also had dinner ♥️ I would stay there again…

    Great location on the river, pool overlooking the elephants. I was there in off-season (May) so hotel was quiet, which was nice. Staff were friendly. Restaurant area open air, overlooking river.
