Bathroom very small,hot water not coming breakfast avarage location good and near not restaurants
Location good staffs good
The location was great as very close to the Kandy City Centre and Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic- just a 20 minute walk around the Lake Round. The bungalow was very comfortable and amenities were also up to standard with hot and cold water, TV, AC/fan and toiletries provided, and a complimentary bottle of water. The triple room was very spacious and comfortable with a small balcony. The staff were very friendly, especially Erandi.
Nothing to say as everyone was fine, but would be nice if a small kettle was provided in the room.
It was super comfortable room need and clean. very good staff for helpful high recommend.
The location was good
The room was very basic as were the facilities.
1. Liked the silence - although close to the main road still maintains some seclusion - very peaceful 2. Liked the lawn and outdoor sitting area, the community space
1. The rooms need some renovation and maintenance. The door knob to our room was broken. 2. Poor handling of luggages - they broke one of our luggage handles 3. We could not find any staff when we needed them - every time had to reach out to the owner through whatsapp to request someone to show up.
It was raining heavy the night we arrived, and the staff was very helpful navigating us and getting us a quick check in to the room. The staff did a wonderful job giving us a homely hospitality. Great location, accessible to pretty the whole kandy.
Very good location... Valm and quiet ambience.... Supportive staff.... Very good breakfast.... A good value for money ...
The location and the house
Location : very close to Kandy Lake and The Temple of Tooth relic. Close to all tourist spots. Easily accessible Property : a beautiful , vintage villa surrounded by nature and very charming Staff : Friendly and hospitable Facilities : Basic amenities provided. The aircon worked great. Big rooms. Clean bathroom. Food : Breakfast was great. Tried continental and sri lankan. Both were tasty. Laundry is available, too.
During the powercut , a little bit of inconvenience is caused. A power backup (like a generator, for lights and plug points ) would be really helpful.
The living room outside the room
The staff did not speak very good english
Great location in Kandy. Very spacious triple room and delicious breakfast in the morning!
Owners are really nice, location is good too and the room was clean with a proper bathroom. We had a good night sleep there, I recommend it.
Location great, staff very helpful
The staff were super friendly and helpful. Arranged a tuk tuk driver for the day for us and we had the best time
The place was easy to find and generally speaking, it was quiet at night. Great location within walking distance to the lake and some restaurants and bars nearby. If you wanna get into town, expect a 30 minute walk more or less. Staff was friendly even though they spoke very basic English. My room was huge and the bed was super comfortable. The AC worked like a charm and so did the hot water in the shower. Great value for money and also not too far from the train station by tuk tuk.
As far as I can tell they don't take card, only cash. Sometimes it was hard to find staff members around. Breakfast was very basic. I didn't like the fact that they closed the gate at 10pm. If I'm on holiday I like to have the freedom to come in and out whenever I feel like it without a curfew...didn't really understand the reason for this as this felt like a very safe neighborhood.
Hostess was very nice. Room was big. In facility tv and air-conditioning was available. Basic but good breakfast.(Both western and sri Lankan as we are pure vegetarian so options were less, but even good breakfast).Nice and helpful staff. T V has so many channels so good .
Kandy boutique villa by aradhya can not be found on Google.Hotel location was Somewhat within vicinity of activities ( though it is little far from temple and main market). Wifi signal were week., so was water pressure and proper heating of water.
Staff were friendly and the room was fine and shower was warm. Located on a quiet road by the lake.
Location on maps was not correct so our tuktuk driver went to the wrong place the other side of the lake so doubled our journey time - so make sure to check location with them first! Not very close to many restaurants
The location was a bit fine and the Bathroom was clean.
We had a triple deluxe room , but the room didn't have an desks to keep any luggage s and the hot water wasn't working. The tea is too expensive better to have it from outside. Booking through booking.com is cheaper as when booking directly too expensive and not worth the room. The bedding are not at all clean and the towels provided aren't clean as well. In my opinion the room is not worth the price Thank You.
The staff were all fantastic and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Breakfast was very good. They have an on site restaurant but it was closed for dinner when we were there however when we ordered food delivered the hotel still provided us with plates and cutlery and even washed up after we finished eating. Just like if we had ordered from the restaurant.Walking back the first night the manager, who was going out to buy supplies for breakfast the next day, noticed my daughter and I checking our map on how to get back and instead of just giving us directions hew turned around and walked us back. The occasional monkey on the grounds offers some amusement, and the grounds are very nice and well maintained. The WiFi is very good, especially based on most of what we have found in Sri Lanka. Highly recommend! The area is very quiet so perfect for light sleepers like me.
Not a hotel comment, but Booking, Google and Uber all have trouble locating the hotel so make sure you double check with the hotel that you are going to the correct location.
Exceptional Breakfast. Clean and Calm environment. The Garden was amazing. Staff was very supportive and friendly. As a couple we enjoyed a lot during our stay at kandy boutique villa. We may definitely come again.
Nothing special.
It was close to the lake
I highly not recommend this place. It was dirty and old. My room was located just next to the “reception desk” so the owner was constantly sitting next to my door which made me feel like I had no privacy. The sheets were old and dirty, I couldn’t sleep at night because there were lots of mosquitoes…
Location was quiet, the garden was nice. 3rd bed had a thin matress and they changed it on our request (at 9pm). They do offer a trip with tuktuk but it is pretty pricy. Later we found a cheaper option on the street.
The reception had only one person who spoke English - charming but a bit confused. The breakfast was okay, but always late (we waited both mornings for quite some time). All the fruit we got was some papaya. Tea and coffee were dissapointing.
There was an issue with the water, so the booking was cancelled. However, the hosts accepted me to stay in the place even though it was cancelled. The host organised some water in a tank instead. The location is fantastic (next to the Suisse Hotel) and the WiFi was working perfectly. The hosts were also very helpful and friendly
All ok
Good staff.
Noisy room, next the reception. Noisy clima in 1st floor.
Good location, attractive buildings, nice helpful staff.
Rooms haven’t got furniture. E.g. a cupboard would be useful
Huge room in a heritage building just a three minute walk to Kandy Lake. The grounds are lovely and there are places to sit outside. The included breakfast was ample, eggs, toast, fresh fruit juice, coffee or tea. You can walk around the lake to the Temple of the Tooth and the main shopping area in about 20 minutes. Along the way you will see trees full of bats, many species of birds and water monitor lizards. There are not many restaurants nearby but the hotel restaurant serves very good food at a reasonable price. The staff, particularly Shanta, work very hard and are extremely helpful.
The buildings could use a bit of sprucing up, but this shouldn't deter you from staying here.
The location was great! Close to the lake, the city center and the temple. The room is pretty basic which is totally fine for the very good price. Breakfast is good. Staff is nice & friendly.
Unfortunately from our ground floor room we could hear a continuous sound of dropping water which was the air conditioning leak from the room upstairs, a bit annoying. There is no mosquito net so I recommend to put it ‘cause it’s always good to have one.
This accommodation surprised us, we got more than we expected. The room was spacious and clean, we had everything we needed. The garden is also beautiful, they served a very good breakfast (you can choose which breakfast you want). The staff is also very friendly. I highly recommend it to everyone!
in the morning around 6:00 someone was standing near the door talking loudly for a long time, unfortunately that woke us up.
Place beautiful and cosy, big room and extremely nice staff, kind and helpful. They provided everything we requested. Walking distance to Sri Dalada maligawa and Kandy city. I definitely recommend this place to stay in Kandy.
It was in a good location. Near Kandy lake and central city.
Our arrival seemed to be somehow surprise. Even simplest questions caused confusion. The floor stained feet and socks to red.
The property is amazing with lot of greenery. Its a heritage bungalow, well maintained and great value for money. The staff are extremely friendly and approachable. This was by far my best stay in Srilanka.
Good location near the lake, nice garden, good breakfast, big room, hot shower.
Wifi was not working well in our room and had to use our data for calls. The rooms and buildings are not clean and would really need a renovation.
This property was a real find for us in Kandy! The setup around the villa was serene, and being close to Kandy Lake made it easy to explore the city on foot. The service was welcoming, and breakfast hit the spot every morning. You could tell they used fresh ingredients, and the staff's friendliness added to the experience. Rooms were clean and comfy, and the pricing felt reasonable, especially given the crazy rates elsewhere in Kandy during the peak season. Fortuna is a good bet if you're after a comfy stay in Kandy. It strikes a nice balance between comfort, convenience, and cost. Definitely worth considering for your stay!
Fortuna Kandy totally blew us away. It's this amazing spot tucked in the city but feels like a secret hideaway. The vibes there were so chill and relaxing, yet you're right near all the cool stuff in the city. The team running the place were super cool, friendly and made us feel right at home. I absolutely loved the breakfast! It was not just yummy but seriously fresh! You could taste the difference. (You should try their Sri Lankan Cuisine) Rooms were comfy and cozy, and the price was just right, especially for a busy time in Kandy. Seriously wish we had more days to spend there! On our next visit to Sri Lanka, We will be right back with more people. Thank You for the amazing experience.
Wish I stayed longer
No tea coffee facility
Fortuna Boutique Villa is an awesome Villa we stayed at in Kandy. It's right by Kandy Lake and super close to the city, like a quick 5-minute walk. Booking it was a breeze - no fuss. The location was perfecto. We could walk to the Temple of the Tooth Relic and all the attractions places in Kandy. Our room? Big and had all the stuff we needed. And the service? The folks running the villa were so friendly and helpful. Seriously, just a quick call, and they had us covered. They had some sweet facilities too. Plus, they were celebrating 20 years and gave us a killer deal. Can't complain about that. And the Wi-Fi? Fast and handy. Cleanliness-wise, it was spot on. Sheets were fresh, bathroom was clean, and it smelled good in there. Safety-wise, we felt right at home. The hosts and staff were amazing, made us feel secure and comfy. Our overall experience? It rocked! We're totally coming back when we swing by Sri Lanka again. And let me tell you about the food – the chef in the villa was a wizard. Dinner and breakfast were off the charts tasty. Every bite was a delight. In a nutshell, this place is a real gem. Convenient, cozy, and just plain awesome. It's the kind of spot that leaves you with great memories and a craving for a return visit.
