Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is beautifully situated along the Mahaweli river, offering a lovely view and peaceful surroundings. The rooms are modern with all the necessary amenities and a balcony for a relaxing stay. However, there is room for improvement in the international standard breakfast and overall management could enhance the guest experience.
The hotel is nestled in a serene area alongside Sri Lanka's largest river, the Mahaweli, providing picturesque views of nature. The service was exceptional with attentive and brilliant staff.

This hotel offers spacious rooms with twin beds, ample space, and all necessary facilities even on short notice. The service is attentive and brilliant, though improvements are needed in the breakfast quality and overall management.

The hotel is in a lovely location, right on the banks of the Mahaweli river and a short tuk tuk ride to the temple. The rooms are spacious with ample amenities and the service is exceptional. However, the dining experience could be improved with more food choices. Overall, a great value for a stay in Kandy.
I couldn't have asked for a better hotel location! Being on the river with a fantastic view was amazing, and the room had an ethnic feel with a beautiful front view. The chairs outside were a lovely touch, but it was a bit far from everything.
I arrived at the hotel with short notice and was greeted by a lovely view from the balcony facing the garden. The rooms were comfortable, but it would have been great to have at least another 8 umbrellas available. The service, though needing some upgrades to meet international standards, was excellent with the staff always with a smile, making an effort to provide good service without being intrusive. The location, along the large river of Kandy, offered a serene atmosphere but required a tuk-tuk ride of about twenty minutes to reach the temple. The dining options, especially for vegetarians, were satisfactory, and the Spanish dishes were a nice touch. The facilities were adequate, but some improvements could be made to enhance the overall experience.
