Behind the closed doors off the road you walk into an amazing place! The hotel is really quirky and unique it's been thought about alot and it's a place I won't forgot from my time in Sri Lanka! Really lovely hosts who can't do enough for you and book your tuk tuk and help plan your time in Kandy. The bed was so comfy and the room was very clean and again had the quirky touches!

A lovely guest house with very helpful hosts. It is located on a mountain, near the center, offering stunning views of the surrounding area and the city. For 1-2 dollars, you can use a tuk-tuk to go down or up to the house, or you can walk, but it's better only during daylight hours. Right at the hotel, you can book guided tours from the host at a very reasonable price. The rooms are small, but very cozy and clean. I'll be happy to come back again.

Most amazing place to stay in Kandy! The view is amazing, room is spacious and very clean, location is up the hill but a quick tuktuk ride away from town and the lake. Up on arrival we have been welcomed with tea and local treats. Breakfast was huge and delicious! But most importantly I want to point out the amazing staff that helped us in making our stay so comfortable. From organizing the train ride to Ella, to ordering Tuktuks and pointing us to the right and most beautiful places in town. We can only recommend staying here!! Thank you very much!!

the place is very nice, clean and surrounded by nature. it’s a bit outside of the centre, but we prefer that as opposed to being in the city, as Kandy is very busy and loud. the rooms are big and some have a balcony with a beautiful view. the family is extremely nice. the breakfast was amazing. we also had dinner there one night and it was delicious as well. one of the ladies also washed my pants when i asked if they offered that service and she did it free of charge. highly recommend!!!

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.

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.
