What's nearby

  • Two reasons to come to Kandy: 1, to walk around this lake, and 2, to visit the temple with the sacred tooth relic
    Kandy Lake
    3 min walk - 0.3 km
  • Sri Dalada Maligawa, also known as Temple of the Buddha Tooth in English, is a UNESCO heritage site, and a popular place to visit for newly weds. It was awfully packed over the full moon weekend (would not recommend visiting during this period)! This pavilion-like structure at the front Paththirippuwa, or Octagon. It is a symbol of identity in Kandyan Architecture. In the olden days, the king would stand there to address his citizens who were gathered in front of him. The golden roof behind stands over the Buddha tooth relic that this temple is famous for. Footwear is not permitted inside, so you should either carry a bag where you can keep your shoes, or leave your shoes out on the grass like everyone else! #srilanka #kandy #wanderlust #explore #adventure #travel #igtravel #instatravel #vacation #travelgram #trip #travelandleisure #asia #throwback #tourist #temple #religion #beautiful #traveltips #nofilter #picoftheday #architecture #buddhist #sridaladamaligawa

Super freundlich

Super freundlicher Empfang, die Leute sind mega herzlich und nett. Wir hatten das ein Zimmer mit Aussicht, was sehr toll war. Man sieht ins Grüne. Für nach Kandy kann man ein TukTuk nehmen oder auch den Hügel runterlaufen. Ich würde das Hotel sofort wieder buchen. Einzig das Badezimmer ist nicht so gross, hat uns aber nicht gestört.

Meget behageligt ophold!

Vi havde 1 enkelt overnatning og det levede fuld op til vores forventning. Der var gid service fra det sekundt vi ankom og tog afsted igen. Værelset var pænt og renligt og maden var lækker og til ingen penge.

Good value and good food. Would recommend

Basic comfortable room with a balcony and view of the city - nice to enjoy a beer on in the evening and play a few games of cards If you decide to have breakfast or dinner here then it is reasonably priced and great food! Some of the best food we had in our 2 weeks in Sri Lanka actually! Would recommend

DA EVITARE!

La struttura è difficilmente raggiungibile in autovettura. La strada è in salita ed in parte non asfaltata. Mancano idoneee indicazioni stradali per raggiungere l' hotel. Inoltre la struttura è priva di ascensore: la camera al 2^ piano e la sala colazione al 4^ piano. Scale esterne senza illiminazione nè aria condizionata. Check in pessimo: abbiamo suonato il campanello tre volte ed atteso mezza ora. E' arrivato un anziano in ciabatte, che non parlava inglese ma solo cingalese.Nessun collegamento con il centro. False tutte le informazioni reperite tramite Hotels.com

Great location and great staff, but if you book a room with balcony, make sure the balcony lights are turned off for the night from the neighbor's room as well since the spots are quite bright.

Helpful Staff

I stayed here 3 nights. The owner and staff were very helpful and obliging. The room was well appointed and comfortable. It is walking distance from the city centre but a tuk tuk is cheap and readily available. The breakfast was plentiful and tasty and the dinner menu was basic but tasty. Both were served in a large outdoor area overlooking the city. The main issue I had was the number of stairs. My initial access required 4 flights of stairs with a large suitcase. This would be an issue for someone with mobility issues. It was 2 flights of stairs to the lower access / exit point which I used after signing in.

Hill side location and good city view.

キャンディーの湖と中心部の眺望が良好。部屋はこの価格では十分な設備。スタッフも親切。特別に綺麗では無いが、バスルームも標準的なレベル。温水もでまず。価格を重視して、連泊するには十分のクオリティ。市内中心部から2kmで、かなりの上り坂のため徒歩での移動は大変。TukTukでの移動推奨。すぐに市内へ繰り出したい方に不便だが、静かな環境を求める、できるだけ価格を抑えたい滞在拠点としては良い。

отдых в Аманда Хилс, Канди

Отель расположен на холме, от жд вокзала до отеля на тук-туке ехать 12-15 минут. На апрель 2016 проезд на тук-туке нам стоил 300-350 рупий. Уверен, что можно было и дешевле найти тук-тук. В отеле за весь период проживания к нам относились доброжелательно. В описании сказано, что номер будет убираться периодически, т.е. не каждый день. я решил что будут убирать через день. Однако на весь период проживания (4 ночи), у нас ни разу не убирались. Завтрак был включен в стоимость проживания. Завтрак был плотный, но однотипный. Каждое утро, на две персоны нам подавали по омлету, 4 тоста, вазочку с маслом, вазочку с джемом, вазочку с медом, 4 блина, тарелку с кусочками фруктов (когда арбуз, когда ананас) и на выбор чай, или кофе (+молоко). Мы выбрали номер с вентилятором. Была кровать, шкаф для одежды, сейф, плоский телевизор, маленький столик с зеркалом, один стул, маленький холодильний, деревянная решетка для сушки вещей. Была предоставлена вода - 1л, кусочек мыла, туал.бумага.

A good location in Kandy!

Although there are MANY flights of stairs to the rooms (and no elevator), the setting was quite nice. We were able to walk down a big hill in 5 minutes to be able to continue walking around the beautiful lake in Kandy and to the fabulous Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic complex. Eating on the rooftop of the next door Restaurant at the Sharon Hotel (for their delicious nightly buffet (made by many Sri Lankan women) was a great experience!

Hôtel acceuillant

Personnel sympathique et accueillant. Bien situé car un peu à l'écart des nuisances sonores nocturnes. Chambre propre et confortable, par contre, pas de ménage effectué durant les 3 nuits où nous y avons séjournés. Le petit plus assez typique, de nombreux singes sont présents autour de l'hôtel, donc ne pas être étonné de se retrouver avec un singe sur son balcon...

Nettes Hotel auf einem Hügel

Das Hotel liegt Nahe des Stadtzentrum auf einem Hügel. Man kann durchaus zu Fuß in die Stadt laufen, allerdings ist der Rückweg anstrengender da es ziemlich steil bergauf geht
