“Don’t believe the reviews, this place is nowhere near a luxury resort. It’s a very basic hotel owned by a most unprofes”
Our room was big and light and had a lovely river view. We booked it because it was a bit out of town and in nature (bird watching, even a big snake in the garden!)

“Peaceful environment, great for nature lovers and still an easy drive into Kandy”
Great location by the river with lovely gardens full of different fruit trees - saw lots of birds including kingfishers and sea eagles as well as turtles and lizards. The rooms were clean and spacious. The Sri Lankan family that own the hotel are very friendly and accommodating.

“Excellent river side Hotel”
It’s a small hotel & entrance to the hotel is bit deceptive and doesn’t give full picture, once u are in the room the view and backyard is beautiful. River view, calm and serene environment, bird song in morning are just great. Food is all prepared by host and is of excellent quality, customised food out of menu was also accommodated. We enjoyed karaoke by the host and their friends in evening. Jerome is simply outstanding in handling all our request and special thanks to the host for making our stay enjoyable.

We had stayed at this place back in 2019 and came back in 2025. This hotel located not far from Kandy city center but very close to nature on the river shore. We love the location as you can easily go to Kandy whenever you want but you can enjoy the river view, watch birds and animals from your room or from the restaurant. We also enjoyed our breakfasts there. Wery well prepared omelets, fruit, juice, toasts with butter and jam, pancakes. Once had dinner there. Devilled prawns were really good. The owners were very nice and welcoming. I must mention the lady owner’s driving skills which are exceptional as we were delivered at the train station very fast and right on time. She saved our trip to Colombo, and we are so very much grateful to her.

“An attractive location away from the hubub of Kandy town.”
The location is excellent. The balcony overlooks the river and the view is unimpeded. The greenery is lush and the area full of birds. The staff member Mr Janak was kind and looked after my husband and I who fell ill with a virus. He cooked us nutritious soup and whatever we asked for.
