This guesthouse is an absolute gem. My room was very clean, beautifully decorated, and had a lovely private outdoor seating area. Breakfasts were a feast! Delicious Sri Lankan dishes kept appearing on the table, and any other time of the day the family kept offering me some tea. One of the highlights of my stay was the cooking class with Sudesh’s mom. I heard great things about in the reviews and I'm so glad I decided to do it as well. It was a great experience and everything we cooked was absolutely delicious! The location, while a little off the beaten track, offers stunning views of the surrounding countryside. While getting an Uber or PickMe can sometimes be a bit tricky due to its more remote location, the family arranged transportation for me whenever needed. What truly sets this guesthouse apart is the incredible family who runs it. They were all simply amazing, going above and beyond to ensure my stay was perfect. I honestly can't recommend this guesthouse enough. It's the perfect place to experience true Sri Lankan hospitality, enjoy delicious food, and immerse yourself in the beauty of the Kandy region.

It's a place with an incredible view! It's a bit far from the center but you can take a tuk tuk and that's it! The room was very clean, the breakfast was very good for the price. The staff was very friendly at all times. They helped me get a tuk tuk to take me to the station and at night they recommended where to have dinner.

We were happy to find and stay at this place. It's a family small hotel with very good location at the hills of Kandy. It's 15 min walk to the city center, but if you are not walk lover you can take a tuk tuk for a dollar or two. Spectacular view from a very big terrace and far away from the city jungle and noise. Very nice room, well furnished and equipped with all you might need for your short stay. Air conditioner, kettle, hair dryer as well. They offer coffee, tea and water as a compliment in the room and we highly appreciate it. The bath is small but very clean. The breakfast - oh my God. Rich and tasty. We couldn't ate all they had prepared for us. We highly recommend this place. Thank you.
