you get much more than you expect in this accommodation! Amazing breakfast, big pool with beautiful view, room with air conditioning and mosquito net. You will get the greatest love from the staff, we have never experienced such an attitude anywhere else. They are happy to help you with everything and always have a smile on their face. If we were to stay again near Kandy, I would never choose any other accommodation than Kandy Bird Villas. The main thanks go to the nice young man Vihan Thenuka, who made our stay very pleasant! ❤️

Kandy, often called the cultural capital of Sri Lanka, is a city that blends history, nature, spirituality, and urban life in a uniquely charming way. Located in the central hill country, it remains one of the most visited cities in the island. Kandy has a calm, scenic, and slightly old-world charm. It is less hectic than Colombo but more active than smaller hill towns, offering a perfect balance for travelers who want culture, greenery, and city convenience in one place. The Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic (Sri Dalada Maligawa) is the city’s most iconic attraction and sacred to Buddhists worldwide. The city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its deep cultural heritage and preserved traditions. Kandy is rich in tradition, music, dance, and ancient rituals, making it a paradise for cultural enthusiasts.

Kandy is a beautiful town with so much to see and do.

Kandy is a beautiful town with so much to see and do. It’s the perfect central base for exploring nearby highlights like Nuwara Eliya and other major sightseeing spots. The famous Kandy–Ella train ride is a wonderful experience with stunning views. Kandy Lake is lovely for an evening walk, and the local markets — especially the Sunday market — are absolutely worth visiting. The Dalada Maligawa (Temple of the Tooth) is a must-see; try to go in the evening when it’s cooler and the atmosphere is even more peaceful. Overall, Kandy is a charming town that offers culture, scenery, and convenience all in one.

Our trip around Kandy was truly memorable! We loved visiting the Temple of the Tooth, strolling around the peaceful lake, and exploring the vibrant local markets. The botanical gardens were stunning, and everything was easy to reach from the train station. Great food, kind people, and beautiful scenery all around.

People advised us to have 2 days in Kandy - we would have been fine with just one. The weather did not help us it rained on and off the entire time we were there. Temple of the Sacred Tooth - tick - walk around the Botanical gardens - tick - Shopping DISMAL - Kandyan dance performance extremely touristy. I wish we had allocated an extra day for the hill country instead of Kandy, Best meal we had was at the Hideaway Lounge. Central market - awful fresh food and spices but seriously hideous tourist souvenirs. Old building needs renovation.

Kandy is an interesting historic city, with a number of must see sights - the Temple of The tooth, a walk around the lake, the Big Buddha. Peradeniya Botanical Gardens are just on the edge of the city. The market is bustling. If you are there in late July/early August you may catch the Perahera Festival - a parade of dressed elephants, fire whirlers, Kandy Dancers, Drummers and whip crackers.

The city centre is very polluted but there is a lot to see and it is worth exploring. I highly recommend taking a tuk tuk tour to visit the sights. We had an adventurous day out with Explore Kandy with Sajith Tuk Tuk Tours.

The location and the View was one of the best views I had seen from around Kandy. The rooms were all very spacious and comforting and the morning breakfast on the top of the hotel was my favourite part of the experience, getting to experience the view as well enjoy a breakfast out doors was just so refreshing in the mornings .The customer service was exceptional, the staff were helpful and so friendly. My experience was like no other and if I were to stay in Sri Lanka again I’d stay here for sure.

One of the best hotel at beautiful Kandy. Located bit far from the city centre. Bit hard to reach because of narrow road via mountains. But once we are reach the hotel so beautiful with amazing view. Fresh air, very greenery, calm and peaceful with warm Sri Lankan hospitality. Grand hills Kandy best place to be with your love once. Highly recommend. for everyone who are looking for a peaceful, nature friendly holiday. Thank you so much for best hospitality service. Keep it up your good work.

Amazing old hotel with a classic elevator, high ceilings, bar and pool area, and possibly the best breakfast buffet I have sat at so far in Sri Lanka. The staff were super friendly and helpful, polite and smiling. If I had more time in Kandy, I would have stayed here for longer. The location by the lake is perfect and a short walk to every possible type of food you want. Across the road is an entrance to Sri Dalada Waruna temple so visit anytime.

Hidden gem outside Kandy. Stopped here for one night on our way from Sigiriya to Ella to break up the tuktuk drive a bit. Hotel is ran by very friendly guys and the room was great with a nice balcony with a view over the valley. Swimming pool was a great addition as we used it both that afternoon and the next morning before we left. Breakfast was also very good - best hoppers i had in Sri Lanka.
