Couldn’t recommend more. It had everything, comfy bed, good AC and fan, free great brekky, nice view, laundry, TV and awesome staff. Really good value for money also. A nice place to recover a few days.

A little oasis hidden in a great location in Kandy. Lovely room next to the pool. Welcoming and helpful host who arranged for us a transfer to Ella last minute and tuk tuk trips within Kandy as we needed them. Tasty breakfast to top it all! What a great address, warmly recommend <3

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!!!

Even though we only stayed at Mount Haven for one night we absolutely loved it. The room was massive and sparkling clean with views over the town in every direction. The couple in charge of the house are absolutely lovely and they even wraped our breakfast for our early check out and the train journey. We absolutely recommend it

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.
