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 walk \- 0.3 km - Udawatta Kele Sanctuary 5 min walk \- 0.5 km - Royal Palace of Kandy 5 min walk \- 0.5 km - Wales Park 5 min walk \- 0.5 km ### Getting around - Kandy Railway Station 11 min walk - Bandaranaike Intl.

It may or may not be for you. It feels like stepping back in time. The place is a little shabby in places but if you want to have that feeling of living a bit of history it delivers. It’s an excellent location and the staff are all friendly and helpful. The pool offers a break from the noise of town and just generally- bring your ear plugs! We really enjoyed our stay. ##### martin Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Line Feb 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Amazing location Old historic hotel. Amazing location. Serviceminded staff. Downside; too many big tour groups use this hotel, so not so cosy, when you come as the only ones not part of a large group ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/52E6AAB6C93520509FBCBA17131B3F2FC53D813D1708917298370.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/630D735657C8754CAC280650437D7ABBC2D85EC41708917298121.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/D7C99A7FDE51A809F81120760CAEF814F95E7E131708917298481.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Line Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Oct 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good Convenient location. Just close to all main attraction and restaurants, such as the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic and Kandy lake. The hotel itself looks elegant and the maintenance is quite good. I especially enjoy the life that you can feel the living history of the hotel. It is also conformable to stay in the room. Good choice or stay here of you visit Kandy. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Anne-Sofie Dec 15, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Charming but in need of renovation We like the charm of old colonial hotels and would recommend it because of the great location but you should no that a lot of things don't always work. Staff is very friendly and helpful. I saw the one room that has been renovated and it aas very nice with modern bathroom and still the room with colonial style. ##### Anne-Sofie Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### hideyuki Feb 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Good for business because of WIFI condition.

Upgraded to a suite (thank-you), yet broken air conditioner that staff tried to fix with a broomstick/leaking ceilings in various rooms (dangerous on floorboards)/light bulbs broken & not replaced/dangerous electrical PowerPoints/shower mechanism broken & fell Off & hot water tap itself overheats & liable to burn. In a positive, bed & pillows comfortable, pool fantastic & staff very helpful. Particularly the Manager/CEO Mr Kumar. ##### Susan Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kirsi Jan 29, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Great surroundings. Lots of history. Unfriendly staff. The safely box didn't work ( somebody had taken the batteries). Nothing was done although I staff different staff members at least five times. ##### Kirsi Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Michael Feb 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Disliked: Staff & service Keep your sense of humour and you'll get through the half to one hour check in process and you'll start to enjoy this quirky, totally inefficient hotel in the perfect location opposite the Temple of the Tooth. It's unapologetically rundown - but if you love heritage hotels you'll love this place. It has a nice restaurant with really lovely staff. It's the reception staff that desperately need training in how to deal with customers. We had zero explanation of why we were kept waiting for over half an hour. Very poor communication and generally inept. But again, get through the check in process and you'll be in heritage bliss - well, maybe not 'bliss' but you'll probably love the place anyway. ##### Michael Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Zein Aug 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Our stay was wonderful, we were lucky enough to have one of the newly renovated rooms at the hotel. The hotel staff were very polite and accommodating and the hotel is very centrally located - easy walk to the Temple of the Tooth Relic, eateries and shops. ##### Zein Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### NIKOLAOS Aug 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great stay Great Hotel ##### NIKOLAOS Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Aug 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Perfect accommodation in Kandy The staff is very friendly and professional, upgraded our room and allowed us to check in early. The room is so beautiful and high-end. Location is super convenient, short walk to the tooth temple, at lake with beautiful views, surrounded by shopping stores. There was loudly construction sounds around 2pm, that disturbed the sleep. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/498d61c2-6da3-47ad-ad60-ee12188c690f-1754870571383.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0dd67abb-697c-4192-a419-05e604b1172d-1754870573382.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e97aef2b-8264-4320-a573-7047dd276189-1754870572009.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/14bd0904-f2da-4a24-8865-8480adad2fb9-1754870576510.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### mallory Dec 13, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good property in a very convenient and safe location.

In a perfect location by the lake and opposite the Temple of the Tooth. The interior takes you right back to the 19th Century with its wooden floors and antique bar. The dinning room is old fashioned with a good mix of western and Sri Lankan food. Staff are very helpful and friendly. Everything about this hotel is the opposite of a modern bland corporate hotel. Staying here is an experience. ##### Christopher Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Alexander Oct 12, 2022 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Very tired and run down building and rooms.
