I had a lovely stay at this hotel, located right in the center of Kandy and super close to all the attractions. The rooms had a charming colonial touch, but unfortunately, some furniture showed signs of wear. The service was helpful; they even checked us in early, which was a nice bonus. Overall, the value for money was decent, but the dining experience could be improved, as the coffee left much to be desired.
