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.
