“Relaxed stay in the hills above Kandy”

Balcony with great views of the surrounding hills and countryside. Wonderful food (breakfast and dinner). Very helpful staff offering good advice on how the make the best out of a day in Kandy.

“Superbe hôtel dans la jungle!”

We absolutely loved our stay at Hanthana House. We chose it specifically because it was located outside the city. The rooms are beautiful, and the construction is of very high quality. The view from the hotel is simply unbeatable. Ashan was an invaluable help throughout our stay. He took us on a sunset walk and gave us plenty of great advice for our short stay in Kandy. He truly made a big difference. We had one lunch and two dinners at the hotel. The food was delicious. The only criticism I could make is that the meal prices are quite high compared to what you might find in town. (10 usd per adult per meal!). That said, everything was excellent. I would recommend that future guests make sure to check the prices beforehand.

love the room, it was very specious and very clean. Great location. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Great accomodation in Kandy. It is a bit further up the Hanthana mountains, but it is worth the trip - the location is quiet, peaceful, and beautiful. The food is delicious, and the owner, and the staff are friendly, and helpful. They organised a day trip in Kandy, transfer, and even a cooking class in their own kitchen for us. Thank you for everything Pati, and family.

The staff were incredible - they could not have been more helpful. The food was delicious and the rooms were very big and clean.

Clean, comfortable, kind and helpful staff, waking up to the sounds a views of nature. Away from traffic, pollution, and noises

“Lovely room, staff great, food amazing.”

Lovely room, clean, friendly staff and great food.

“Would recommend it .”

The breakfast was good . Lovely location surrounded by the jungle with birds and monkeys . The tuk tuk drivers found it hard to find so useful to have the hotel phone number with you. Veryfriendly and helpful staff.

Amazing room! Spacious and clean. Spectacular views from the balcony. Delicious food and great host

“Difficult access to a nice room”

The rooms were newly renovated, large, and very clean. The location provides a quiet and tranquil experience. The staff are very attentive and take good care of you.

“Beautiful property with stunning views of Kandy.”

The room was clean and spacious, spare blankets and pillows, nice little tea/coffee station. Big bathroom which was also very clean. I had breakfast and dinner here which were both delicious! It was lovely to sit on the balcony in the sun in the morning! Pathi was incredibly helpful organising onwards travel which was very appreciated.

The owners where amazing, we had an amazing stay in the room. The breakfast and dinners are recommended. Really a great place to rest from your busy Kandy trips and hiking experiences. You relax and enjoy your amazing accommodation.

The owners (Pathi and his wife and son Mack) and staff were extremely attentive and welcoming - by the end of our 3 night stay, we felt like we were a part of their family. I also came away knowing a lot more about Sri Lanka's history and current affairs (thanks, Pathi!). The interior design of the building is tasteful and welcoming, and the beds, including pillows, were very comfortable - the most comfortable out of all the places we stayed at during our sri lanka holiday. The food was amazing - breakfasts were very satisfying (with decent coffee!), and I highly recommend eating dinner there as well if you are seeking fresh and traditional sri lankan food. I'd also recommend the hike along the Pekoe trail (Pathi was our guide) and if you are into cooking, the cooking class with Pathi's nona/wife. In short, my family and I felt a bit sad when we left as it felt like leaving a family. If I could give this place 11 out of 10, I would :) 😀

“Perfect Kandy accommodation for those wishing to escape the city”

We stayed here for 4 glorious nights in the family room.  Definitely the comfiest beds during our 3 week trip all around SL.  This guesthouse feels more like a boojie hotel with poured concrete floors, spacious bathroom and a huge wrap around balcony - beautiful views and peaceful at night. The hosts - Pathi and Subi, and their son Mack are super helpful and great with kids.  Subi is an amazing cook, we had dinner 1 night and wished we'd done that more, she also ran cooking classes - for next time!  Breakfast was also fantastic and varied each day.  Pathi and Mack arranged local tuk tuk drivers for us at a good price who were also very knowledgeable and gave us great local insights such as top snack stops and view points.  Definitely recommend for families and those wishing for a peaceful stay during their Kandy visit.

“Wonderful Family Run Hotel in a q uiet part of Kandy”

Mack and his family are excellent hosts, our rooms were very clean and comfortable (with amazing viewd) and we had the upstairs terrace to ourselves. My daughter was unwell when we arrived and Mack was able to arrange a home visit by their family doctor within the hour to see her, which was amazing and such a relief. Honestly, we wished we had more time to stay and we would certainly return. Highly recommend.

The family room is very spacious and clean. The view is unbeatable. Pathi family and the staff in this hotel are great as most of the sri Lankan people. The dinner and breakfast are authentic and tasty.

“Couldn’t have been better value for money and fantastic local hospitality”

“The room was amazing, breakfast very very good and the owner and his family very kind and helpful.”

Everything was perfect!!!

“Lovely clean rooms,good breakfast and friendly staff.”

The property is in a very quiet location.Ideally for winding down.Difficult to get to in the Hills.20 minutes in the car from the city centre.If we were staying for longer than 1 night it would have been better.
