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](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/178045/29d3f8bd-f3e4-45ca-be0d-7b626f66c8fe.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Temple of the Tooth 3 min drive \- 1.8 km - Bahirawakanda Vihara Buddha 10 min walk \- 0.9 km - National Hospital Kandy 15 min walk \- 1.3 km - Kandy Clock Tower 16 min walk \- 1.4 km ### Getting around - Kandy Railway Station 13 min drive - Bandaranaike Intl.

Staff is really nice. I mean really nice. Pool was decent. Location is a little secluded and quiet, but you can get to town in less than 10 mins in car. Don't use tuk tuks. It's challenge for them to climb the hills. Not a new facility but its maintained pretty well. ##### Thenkutty Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Ruchira Jun 2, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Do not recommend this place at all. There was nobody at the reception. Gave us the wrong room. Then we asked for the room that we paid for. They charged exrtra for that. We didn't receive any bed sheets. The best part is I wanted to go the toilet at 4.00 am and found out no water in the toilet and I had to call the manager lady early in the morning but no answer. Terribel place. Avoid this place at all cost. ##### Ruchira Stayed 1 night in May 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Mohammed Mar 30, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not a 5 star hotel I booked this hotel because it was rated as a five star hotel but it’s far from this.

It is reached via a steep, winding road, but the views, and the hotel itself, are worth the journey. Reception was prompt, and all staff were friendly and attentive. The rooms were large and had everything we needed - comfortable bed, luxurious bathroom, strong wifi and good electrical outlets. The breakfast buffet was delicious. ![View from bedroom window](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ECA3B598FCDA6F2D6A2F462E00F9B5057E7398DE1568494647187.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Apr 23, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff were very friendly and welcoming.

Wifi was not available in the pool area. Staff and service exceptional. Food was superb. Location good for the view not so good for getting around and need to rely on transport and not walking distance to anything so a bit isolated.

The staff was extremely polite and attentive and it made our stay very comfortable. They provided services we requested like day trips to Sigiriya and the rooms were clean. Very well done by hotel and they made us feel special during our whole stay. Only thing is it's up at the mountains so it's away from the city but they remedied it by providing free shuttle service to the city. Thank you Tourmaline for your hospitality. ##### Raymon Lat Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Sandra Dec 9, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Las vistas son fantásticas, la habitación y el desayuno incluido muy buenos y el personal muy atento y servicial ##### Sandra Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joan Oct 28, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A sublime two days We had a wonderful stay at this hotel.

So, need to keep that in mind when you go out for a walk. Also, access to public transport is limited. The ambience is great. Great welcome. Staff at the front desk were very helpful. The rooms were spacious,clean. It has a lovely view of Kandy. The bathroom has a glass door in common with the room. This can be curtained off with a cane curtain, that has spaces between the canes. A bit awkward if you have children of both genders staying in the same room. There is no lift in the hotel (it is only 3 floors tall) and that can pose a problem when you have someone who cannot climb stairs or there is no bellboy to help you with the luggage ( you need to check out at odd hours) Food is good. The people at the dining area were very helpful and nice Spa is great. Overall a great experience ##### john Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Aug 26, 2018 The greatest thing is that is has a tennis table and a tenis court.
