Excellent start to our holiday!

We stayed at Blinkbonnie for the first two nights of our trip, and it was a great way to start our vacation. Our room had a beautiful balcony with amazing mountain views. It was clean, comfortable, and spacious, with a big bed, A/C, and a nice bathroom. Breakfast was excellent with an amazing view. The host was very friendly and helpful, giving us great tips and recommended us things to do and see in the area. We even booked a tour guide through them and got to see some places we wouldn’t have found on our own. We highly recommend staying here!

Very accommodating

Staff were very welcoming and more than happy to assist us with organising transport. They put us in contact with 2 of the best drivers we had for our entire trip. Food was nice, views over the city and the garden made for a lovely setting.

Amazing view, friendly staff and great food!

The room was very nice and the view from the hotel was amazing since its a bit up the mountain! The staff were very friendly, kind and helpful. The breakfast was very good and their chicken and cheese kottu was the best we have tried in Sri Lanka! Its a must to try it. 🤩 Since its a bit up the mountain, you mostly need a tuktuk to go down to the city. But i will still recommend to stay here for anyone who will go to Kandy.

It was a very good experience. Best place I stayed on my whole trip.

The place was very nice with breathtaking balcony views. The staff was very helpful and arranged everything we asked for. The food was delicious and there were quite many options with the breakfast being the stand out. I particularly loved the vibes of the place with very good decor. strongly recommended for couples and family. It was a perfect place to stay for our honeymoon.

Lovely hotel with great views

Great location with amazing views, much better to stay up here than down in the town. We had a lovely good-sized room with a good bathroom and shower. The manager was very welcoming and helpful and helped to arrange transport for us, also gave us useful advice about shopping and places to see. The restaurant served delicious breakfast and food in the evening. We really enjoyed our stay here - a great choice.

The supervisor (or manager?) hospitapility is excellent. He is friendly smiley. On our arriving day, it was raining heavily we decided to eat noodle cup as dinner. We asked for hot water, the manager is so nice to purposely boil the hot water for us without charges & let us sit on the restaurant. We were comfortable sitting at the restaurant and enjoyed rhe view & ambience. We decided to order some food with them, it was surpriaingly good and good portion.
