Sharon Inn Hotel

“I have stayed at the Sharon Inn on several occassions now and have no hesitation in recommending it. Sue and Faez are wonderful hosts very friendly helpful and fun! The rooms are immaculate the views fantastic and the food is to die for. As much as you can eat and the best Sri Lankan food I had in Sri Lanka…. “

“We had a wonderful time staying at the Sharon Inn. Up a winding lane from the lake in the centre of the town the hotel has amazing views over the town. Sue and her husband cannot do enough to make guests welcome. Our rooms were at the top of the hotel which was good for the leg muscles! The rooms”

“Sharon’s Inn is the second last hotel on top of the hill which is lined with guest houses So its a little bit unpleasant walking to and from the centre of Kandy (15mins). The place is immaculately clean and the rooms are cleaned out daily. The staff are relatively friendly but not the friendliest i’ve experiences. There are signs everywhere”

“When I read “Beware Thieves ” in a recent review on Sharon Inn I just could NOT believ I have stayed at the Sharon Inn many times over a number of years usually my way to or from the Buddhist Meditation Center at Nilambe I rate it at the very top of guest houses I have stayed at”

“Sharon Inn is a gem. From the cleanliness of the rooms and hotel to the most amazing Sri Lankan food you will get to eat during your stay in the country. The owner and his staff couldn’t do enough for us and made sure that our introduction to this fantastic country was one to remember. It is a pleasent 10”

“Being a frequent traveler to Sri Lanka I have stayed at the Sharon Inn on numerous occasions over the years. This is a guest house run by a couple Faiesz and Sue who also live on the premises. It has the feel of a family home and you are treated as part of the family. The rooms are spotlessly clean”

“Sharon Inn is a really lovely place a quite guesthouse with a nice well-kept garden. The owner Faiesz and Sue are very friendly helpfully and obliging. This guesthouse in quite position has a particular atmosphere. The rooms are bright and clean. The dinner (buffet) is absolute delicious. After the stay in the crowed city you can feel there well relaxed”

“We were disgusted with the fact that we and several other guests had things stolen from our rooms while we were away from the room for a very short time. When the owner was informed he pretended to be concerned but then tried to convince us not to call the police. We eventually did file a police report after finding”

“We didn’t eat here (FAR cheaper to eat in town and we like to spread our support around instead of chanelling all our money into one place) but it was a very nice pleasant and comfortable place to stay. more “

“I do have to disagree with the criticism of this place. We spent two weeks in Sri Lanka staying at mid-priced guest houses and this was easily both the cheapest and the best place we stayed at. The family were extremely friendly welcoming helpful and entirely unpressurising. The evening curry buffets cost about £2 a person and the food was”

Serene Garden Hotel

“Stayed 2 nights out of season so hotel was virtually empty. Room was spotless and the views were good especially of the monkeys in the evenings. However the food was the worst of the 13 night trip and the staff were totally disinterested. more “

“We were introduced to this Hotel by our tour company [–XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX@XXXXX.com) and they said we would not regret staying there. They were right the view from the room was excellent the staff were friendly and service was good the rooms as well as the pool were quite clean. The food though not excellent was better than average compared to what”

“We only stayed here for one night as part of a tour but we were very impressed from start to finish. Rooms very light clean and cool with nice views overlooking the hills. The swimming pool looked clean but we never had a chance to use it. I cannot imagine it getting much sun though. The restaurant was very nice “

“We stayed here for two nights as part of a tour with Upul from Sri Lanka Tailored Tours. First impressions were very good. The hotel is obviously very new. It sits high on a hill overlooking the lake and town of Kandy. Reception staff awere very welcoming and we were shown to our room which didn’t disappoint. Comfi double bed “

“A really nice hotel. Pleasant staff and very good service. Wi-fi expensive however. And swimming pool very cool because of lack of sun!! more “

“We stayed one night at the hotel. The location overlooking the city is quite nice and the staff were excellent. The property was clean but we encountered a few problems. The room we were booked in to had a very strong odor of cleaning fluid and the shower did not work. The front desk knew about the shower problem and”

“Serene Garden Hotel is an ideal base to visit many adventurous and historical sites such as centuries old Buddhist temples the Elephant Orphanage in Pinnawala Victoria Randenigala reservoirs historic Mahiyangana and of course the popular Knuckles Range. The hotel was opened in mid March and I stayed there twice (April & June 2008). You enter the hotel (6 stories) reception”

Queens Hotel Holiday Reviews

Queens Hotel

“This hotel was once one of the premier places to stay in Kandy – probably 100 years ago! Nevertheless it retains a lot of its colonial quirks and character Paid $32 and got a large A/C room with satellite TV and breakfast and pool – so one has to have realistic expectations for the price paid.. The rooms are big”

“great atmosphere. you can feel the history walking down the long hallways. i wondered what kind of crazy things happened there over the 160+ years. look at multiple rooms since some are way better then others. of the 3 rooms we stayed in 225 was our favorite. $50 a night with a/c. totally worth it. more “

“The Queen’s is a spacious hotel with lots of colonial character. We found it to be good value particularly in respect of its location in the heart of what Kandy has to offer. Food and drink options are a bit limited so we went elsewhere. more “

“I was in 2 minds as to stay here or not after reading the reviews so only booked in for 2 nights but I loved it and ended up staying a week. The hotel has heaps of character and is in the perfect location in the centre of town. The room was spotless and cleaned daily the staff went out”

“i stayed there only one night but the rooms look really bad (economy) but witch cost around $40 per night i was shocked to find cockroach’s in the room the bath was not working the shower was hang by a thread. don’t think you can call this a 3 Star Hotel. more “

“I really wish I could recommend this place but it is just too shambolic. For $45 it should be a steal but there is a reason the rates are cheap. Walked in to the lobby and thought wow this place is fab a little shabby but all the better for the colonial charm without the western hotel chain spin. Checked”

“We stayed in the Queens hotel the first night of our stay in Sri Lanka as part of a customised tour. Big spacious room with big characterful colonial furniture the hotel is quite grand with big staircases and high ceilings. Our room was clean however most of them are facing the road (which you should definitely try and avoid if”

“This hotel is very old. It has a strong colonial charm (cage elevator wood panels etc) but almost everything is in a state of disrepair. A part of the door-post in my room fell off the moment I touched it. When we pluged in two laptops in our room the outside fuse blew off and we had to call maitenance”

“Queen’s Hotel is an elderly and rather frayed establishment with a very convenient location reasonable rates and a friendly and well-intentioned staff. It is located in the heart of Kandy just across the road from the Temple of the Tooth (well worth a visit) and the lake. The hotel retains some of the aura of the colonial era (which is”

“We booked a double room with a balcony that has a view of Perahera and paid a deposit Rs.10 000 on May 10th 2007 and final payment of Rs.10 000 on July 10th 2007. The room with balcony with a view of Perahera was confirmed for August 25th 2007. We arrived on the 25th and were assigned a room that we thought”

“The Manor House in Kandy sells itself as a boutique hotel and certainly charges boutique hotel prices but despite the beautiful exterior of this old colonial house that is where the similarities end the place is a disaster. We were shown to our room which was on 2 levels with a VERY steep staircase connecting them. The bathroom was what”

“Everyone has been lovely at Manor House. The extra kilos we put on are a testament to the fantastic food. Thank you so much for spending so much time looking after our little girl and giving us time to eat all the lovely food! more “

“We had wonderful time here. The service and the attitude of the staff was exceptionally good as well as the Cheff of the hotel restaurant. – Deluxe Suit (Sudu Nelum) more “

“We were charged US$411 (albeit during Perehera) for a dreadful “suite” – dirty floors no hot water on demand out-of-date showers and baths (2* standard) worn-out towels cheapTCL un-tuned television fluffy dowdy loo surround etc etc. The food (one lunch) was awful the oversell on massage too much and the staff unmanaged and untrained – the stood over out table”

“We’ve just returned from a three night stay at Manor House and we feel like we’ve been away for weeks! The house is located about 10mins drive from the heart of Kandy town so unless you have a car you will be have to take a local Tuk Tuk driver (they all know the house well). We picked it solely”

“I think The Manor House has to be the best small hotel that I have ever stayed in. The level of service and the attention to detail was outstanding. The room I stayed was fantastic very spacious and incredibly luxurious considering the amount I paid. The half board option represents very good value for money and the food was great…. “

“How can a hotel serve up average food on a buffet basis and rate itself 5 star.Otherwise clean and quiet bedrooms pleasant communal areas nice swimming pool friendly staff but a bit dated. more “

“This is one of the two official 5-star hotels in Kandy but in my opinion it is at best 3-4 star according to international standard. Situated within 2 miles from Kandy centre it faced Mahaweli river and the traffic beyond — still a good base for visiting Kandy. Our 3rd floor bedroom was quite spacious with a balcony overlooking the”

“On the outskirts of Kandy (about 15 minutes to centre) this is a large hotel clealry used for conferences as well as leisure travellers. Rooms were spacious but the restaurant was poor. The chef seems to have little idea on originality or presentation. Disappointing. more “

“Our two night stay at Mahweli Reach was a most enjoyable experience. We found the staff friendly helpful & attentive and our room spacious and bright. (Certainly not shabby as mentioned in some reviews) The restaurant was attractive particularly the side that overlooked the pool & the meals were all perfectly acceptable. We found the hotel a good base for”

“If you go to Kandy stay in the Mahwelli Reach Hotel…… Fab rooms fab food fab restaurant and great pool Spend New years eve here and it wasgood……”

“My wife and I were booked in for 4 nights. The hotel is a good base for exploring central Sri Lanka if you don’t want to be in and out of a suitcase at a different location every night. Cannot get into Kandy City without transport the roads are dark and poorly maintained. However the hotel provided a car and”

“Booked as a package through Jetwing in Colombo. Not sure if this is a “jetwing” hotel but they booked it for us. The hotel itself is an older British colonial building that no doubt was stunning in it’s hey day. Problem is that hey day would of been about 1920. It’s been refurbished since then but even that was sometime”

“We stayed here because it was close to relatives we were visiting and it was very convenient. However it was probably the least attractive and interesting of all the hotels we stayed at in Sri Lanka. There is nothing really wrong with it it has large rooms a big swmming pool a wide range of food choices and helpful staff…. “

“I stayed in this hotel for one night only as I was due to go to another part of the island the following morning. There was a A/C unit in the room but the remote control was (purposefully) missing so I couldn’t use it. At some point in time there must have been a ceiling fan but it was missing”

“We stayed at the Kandy View Hotel during a recent 3 week holiday in Sri Lanka. The hotel was fairly basic but clean and safe and excellent value for money.

“We booked this hotel through a local travel agent…I allowed his enthusiasm to shape my expectations so I openly admit that these color this review. In a nutshell I would have been much more satisfied with the value and quality if the price would have been around $120/night. The agent described the Tree of Life as “5-star”. Well my husband”

“Think I must have been at another ‘Tree of Life as I can’t agree with previous postings! My husband & I thoroughly enjoyed our 3 nights at the hotel even with torrential rain. Delux rooms up near the pool in the new wing were fine and were clean with brilliant views from the balcony. Staff could not do enough for”

“Fantastic setting but ugly building. Dark damp rooms that were in need of a good clean. Surly staff showed little interest. Poor value for money and one of the worst places we stayed during our 3 weeks in Sri Lanka. more “

“We stayed at the Tree of Life for 2 nights. It’s a welcome escape from the traffic & noise of Kandy & we thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful setting & the amenities. We stayed in the new huge & beautifully appointed chalet rooms. Each has a balcony with a massage table & herbal spa bath as well as a huge bathroom”

“Although the setting and the grounds for this hotel well outside the crowded streets of Kandy are beautifully green and lush at least some of the rooms are positively dire. We originally has a large suite with dreary old bedding and drapes a carpet that was scary to walk on and a balcony overlooking a car park and building site…. “

“We stayed here in June 2004 for 4 nights as part of our honeymoon. The hotel is in a lovely setting but the accommodation fell short of the mark. we were given a ‘cottage’ or ‘bungalow’ room. The first room we had was downright filthy including severe bug problems in the bathroom and piles of old hair brushed into the”

“we stayed for 2 days/nights as part of a 18 day tour. Once the home of a former tea plantation manager the original bungalow is lovely and the accommadation directly behind the bungalow looked very nice. we were taken to rooms further on not in keeping with the original house a rather ugly building. Our room was your average hotel”

“A very special experience it was (2 years back). From the hustle bustle of Kandy city to this oasis of peace 10 miles to the SouthWest. Hotel is really 8-10 different buildings amidst an old plantation with impressive modern architecture that still mingles nicely with the landscape. Rooms were nice: spacious and with views of the lush surroundings. Walks in”
