Room was clean and tidy, fan good, walls very thin, excellent location if you travel by bus or train."

"The hotel is situated about a 20-25min walk from the Kandy Tooth relic temple. It is a good place for one night in Kandy. The WiFi does not reach the room, but you can go down to the lobby and get WiFi there. The rooms are nice, there was not much hot water. The dance center is next door and they have shows at night. We got there late at night, but the show might end around 7-8pm.
If you are in Kandy for a few days I’d recommend this hotel. "

"1. The bed and shower was clean (very important for us).
2. The room and the balcony was very comfortable
with enough space for my wife and myself.
3. The staff in the front desk were very nice and polite.
4. The property is right next to a supermarket
and 5 min walk from the beach."

" I received email from manager that hotel is closed ( day before staying in hotel) due to some government issues and got directed to other hotel . Even though Chitra was helpful it wasn’t hotel I would chose and it added stress to my 32 hrs flight not knowing exactly where I’m staying ."

"AVOID at all costs!
Hotel offers airport transfer - I messaged 3 times, not only did no one come to the airport they had no booking (despite pre paymen) 3 am, not expected, boy that didn’t speak English, more than terrible!
Eventually given a filthy room, you wouldn’t put a dog in it! The door didn’t shut let alone lock! Couldn’t even buy a bottle of water, no restaurant as advertised, no breakfast.
Absolutely the worst.

"I had a wonderful short stay at this hotel. The property was very well maintained, and the staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. I especially enjoyed the delicious food at the poolside restaurant and its relaxing setup. I would happily stay here again."

Room and the whole hotel was very clean. Foods are so delicious as well. Highly recommend for couples or anyone would like to spend true relax time before or...

Karpaha Sands is well hidden, feels exclusive, and is full of the most sincere and accommodating staff, led by manager Noel. We were surprised by the beauty, comfort, and hospitality of this resort. Don't be surprised by the to (2km) dirt road or the lack of liquor license (currently) - the secret Sandy Beach and the juice bar far makes up for any inconveniences. You'll never want to leave.

A peaceful nature retreat with incredible fresh food.
Our stay at Kalu’s Hideaway was a wonderful experience from start to finish. We loved the wholesome farm-to-table dining—tasting fresh red dragon fruit straight from the garden, sweet pineapples, mangos, and delicious Sri Lankan vegetables.
The property itself is surrounded by nature. The butterfly garden was an unexpected treat, and waking up to the tranquil morning sounds of birds overlooking the Udawalawe reserve canopy was magical. You...

There are multiple activities within walking distance - casino, spa, bar, pool. sea, restaurant, shopping mall, etc. The hotel is self contained and enjoyable by family members of different ages. It is affordable compared to other hotels in Colombo. It is new and well maintained. Staff speak English, friendly, and helpful.

We had a wonderful stay at this property. I cannot think of anything we did not like. The location is beautiful, the room was fantastic, the food amazing (quality, variety and presentation), and the staff kind, professional, and efficient. We were welcomed and sent on our way by Dilshan. All waiters at the restaurant were wonderful but we would especially like to acknowledge the service of Chinthaka. We had great fun on our 4 safari tours with our excellent guide Yesi. We saw leopards,...

The quality and comfort of the rooms is great. The staff is great. It is not a busy, active party hotel. It is a very comfortable quiet hotel with excellent staff and service. Amila, the manager demonstrated exceptional service as I was leaving the hotel.

Few things were super impressive as follows:
1) All the staffs were so helpful, welcoming and always there for us when we needed.
2) If you prefer something that gives you a traditional vibes apart from a concrete high rise building this place is highly recommended.
3) The entire place was neat and clean along with worthy prices.
Besides these nothing was found by me which is problematic or annoying.
Long story short,I liked staying there.
