La total disposición y amabilidad de la familia que lo regenta.
Mucho ruido nocturno por la lluvia que impactaba en una chapa del techado.
Good air-conditioning, room as described. Nice balcony, high view. Nice view for breakfast. Good book swap.
Personnels très chaleureux et accueillants ! Petit déieuner bon et varié. Accepte les paiements par carte bancaire. Je recommande.
Nous avons adoré le personnel, très agréable. Le petit déjeuner de très bonne qualité. La vue sur la ville superbe.

Location and view .
Need more light, paint and renovation
Eine tolle Unterkunft in toller Lage. Nahe dem Zentrum und (vor allem wenn man die Family Suite hat) unglaublicher Blick auf die Stadt. Waren zu Esala Perahera dort und konnten das Treiben in der Ferne verfolgen - schöne Stimmung. Das Personal ist supernett.

Het ligt op loopafstand vanxhet centrum en heeft echt een fantastisch uitzicht. We hadden een eigen balkon waar je van het uitzicht kon genieten. Het personeel is heel vriendelijk en helpt graag met alles. Het ontbijt is lekker en ruim voldoende . Er zijn ook wat restaurants in de buurt die goed zijn.
Ala je toch kritisch moet zijn dan was het bed niet heel comfortabel en de koffie wat minder lekker.
Mooie rustige locatie met prachtig uitzicht. Zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel. Host doet er alles aan om je een fijn verblijf te laten hebben. Regelde tickets voor ons voor het Perahera festival inclusief tuktuk en snacks. Goed ontbijt.
Une belle chambre avec une belle vue sur la ville ! Emplacement sympa à proximité du lac avec possibilité de restauration dans la montée. Bon petit déjeuner Hôte très sympathique

El personal muy amable, el dueño nos aconsejó y ayudó en todo lo que necesitamos y más. Nos dio opciones y planes para hacer. El desayuno está muy bueno. Hay que hacer una pequeña caminata con una cuestas final
Good locatio 10 mins downhill to lake. Great breakfast. Clean apartment with nice balcony
The room was a bit small with no storage space
very good location ,close to the city ,clean room ,tasty breakfast ,very friendly host

Großes Zimmer, gutes Frühstück
Laut durch Affen, Vögel und die Klimaanlagen
Clean,quite staffs were very polite.would recommend this property
The view was good. The staff was very nice. Breakfast was decent
The room was quite small. Ac Performance was poor. Very tight bathroomp
Es la segunda vez que me quedo en este alojamiento en Kandy. Las habitaciones son muy limpias y amplias, el desayuno es estupendo y la familia es muy atenta. Además tiene unas vistas muy buenas
View was good. Budget friendly, price/performance acceptable. Breakfast was good, staff was very friendly.
Room was quite old and small. However it was clean as well.
Double Room with Balcony I booked a Double Room with Balcony and was given the choice of floors since there were no other guests. The room was clean, with an amazing view of the city and Kandy Lake. The bathroom was clean too, and the manager was very helpful. When my room had a light issue in the evening, they immediately moved me to another room with the same view, which worked perfectly. The hotel also offered to arrange transport for city visits, which I didn’t use but appreciated having as an option. The property is conveniently close to the City Centre and major attractions in Kandy, and there’s a great pizza place less than a minute’s walk away.
Breakfast was fine, though having more options would make it better.
Breakfast was excellent
Access to the rooms were difficult as the steps were too steep
Vue superbe depuis la salle à manger et les balcons des chambres. Très bien situé, au calme et proche du centre-ville à pied. Chambre pas très grande mais confortable, propreté impeccable. Accueil très serviable et efficace. Très bon rapport qualité/prix, notamment le petit déjeuner très copieux et délicieux !
街中の喧騒から離れて静かな場所にあったのでゆっくりと過ごせました。 スタッフの皆さんも優しく、部屋も綺麗で快適。バルコニーからの眺めも良かったです。 朝ごはんが美味しいのも最高のポイントでした。
夜に入り口あたりで蜂がたくさん飛んでいて少し怖かったです。 ガイド不要で頼んだタクシーは相場よりだいぶ高めでした。
Der Ausblick ist top. Es ist ruhig und man ist in 5 min beim See! Frühstück simpel, aber sehr gut!
L'accueil et la gentillesse du personnel La situation parfaite vous pouvez Aller a pied dans la ville La Vue est tres Jolie Le petit dejeuner compris dans le prix est tres copieux ISTOUTI
Very friendly stuff, room was ok, little small bathroom but for that price you can not expect more
La bellissima vista
Camere un po piccole
Härlig frukost med mycket frukt. Prisvärt
Jobbig backe upp till boendet
Everything, lovely staff, great AC room with kettle good hot shower, balcony and lovely breakfast up on viewing floor.
Nothing
Balcony with great view over the lake towards the Temple of the Tooth. Good breakfast on the panoramic terrace. Friendly staff except perhaps the boss. Tea and coffee making facilities
Room quite small. Abysmal lighting, with one central, weak lamp above the mosquito net. Bathroom door couldn't open completely because of the sink Boss rather pushy, trying to sell tours or cultural events.
높은 위치라 전망이 좋음. 온수가 잘 나옴. 호스트가 친절함
방이 좁다. 높은 위치라서 오르내리기가 좀 힘들었다.
la suite che ci hanno dato al posto della tripla (con un picolo sovrapprezzo) impeccabile in tutto, bagno curato nuovo e pulitissimo. la gentilezza dello staff e la prontezza a risolvere qualsiasi problema, in particolare Richard
avevamo prenotato la camera tripla al piano strada con spazio living pur essendo solo una coppia, rassicurati dalle molte recensioni positive… ma la camera è veramente piccola con un bagno molto piccolo e molto vecchio. ci abbiamo dormito solo la prima notte, perché lo standard è veramente basso! poi le altre due notti siamo stati spostati nella suite con un sovrapprezzo per differenza. altro piccolo problema, abbiamo usufruito del servizio lavanderia ma alcuni panni sono rientrati rovinati perché avevano lavato e asciugato tutto insieme, chiari scuri cotoni e sintetici… il servizio però era esterno e non si può attribuire la colpa direttamente della struttura. per il resto tutto ok!
Spectacular view of Kandy, especially in the breakfast room. Comfortable rooms and good facilities. Friendly, helpful and very conscientious staff, happy to ensure that you have a great experience while at Kandy. Easy access to the city centre and all the cultural sites by a short tuk tuk ride. We appreciated the offer of the no-extra-cost ticket to the Kandian Dance evening from the proprieter that saved us the inconvenience of long waiting and queuing.
Ruhige Lage etwas abseits vom trubeligen Zentrum, schöner Ausblick. Sehr schöner Frühstücksraum ganz oben, leckeres Frühstück. Super hilfsbereite und überaus freundliche Mitarbeiter, besonders der Besitzer hat sich sehr viel Mühe gegeben. Uns wurde am Abreisetag um 6.30 Uhr Frühstück gemacht, das war super nett. Tolle Empfehlung für eine Massage, der Besitzer hat mich mit dem Moped hingefahren.
Zimmer etwas klein, wenig Ablagefläche. Sehr schmaler Balkon. Bad zwar neu gemacht, Wasserdruck aber schwach.
Peaceful location on the hill away from centre, with a great view from the restaurant at the top. Very friendly staff and the room had everything we needed.
Nothing
Schön gelegen, der Name ist zurecht gewählt. Von der Frühstücksterrasse hat man einen tollen Blick zum See, und das Frühstück war sehr gut. Der Besitzer organisierte netterweise einen Stellplatz für unser TukTuk beim Nachbar-Guesthouse, und vermittelte uns Karten für eine Kandydance-Show.
Die günstigen Zimmer unten sind recht beengt, und durch die Nähe zur Rezeption auch recht hellhörig. Das Badezimmer könnte eine Überarbeitung vertragen, und war ein wenig schmuddelig.
The personell is helpfull. Breakfast was tasty enough (fruits, some bread with jam, eggs, coffee or tea).
There was no door handle in toilet. No shower curtain.
The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The room was clean and spacious. The view from the balcony were you have breakfast was very nice.
Nothing really.
Tolle, ruhige Lage & gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.

Very friendly staff and good breakfast. The bed is comfortable. It is close to the lake and the city centre. We liked our stay here and the view is great
The bathroom walls were a bit old and dirty
Staff were lovely, facilities excellent AC rooms with balcony and lovely breakfast in a great location, would stay again.
Nothing
I had a good stay at Highest View. The staff are nice. The breakfast was amazing (tasty food with an amazing view from the terrace). The location is close to the lake, but it’s up the hill, so be prepared for some climbing (or you can easily take a tuktuk).
Comfortable rooms and bed an 8 minute walk from the lake. My room and the restaurant had a view of the Temple of the Tooth structures across the lake. Lovely breakfast and very pleasant staff. A few food options scattered nearby. 15 minute walk to the busy town zone.
No complaints
According to my package, everything is good
Przemiły właściciel i uprzejma obsługa, bardzo dobre i obfite śniadanie. Ładne widoki z tarasu.
Niestety trafiliśmy chyba na jakieś gorsze pokoje, bo łazienki były bardzo zaniedbane. Do tego połowa rodziny była w jednym budynku, a połowa w innym, co w ulewnym deszczu mocno utrudniało. Stęchły zapach, ale zapewne to powszechne tutaj w związku z dużą wilgotnością powietrza.
Personel güler yüzlü,kahvaltı mükemmel,otel şehir merkezinde her yere yakın.
Hiç bir şey
Nice view. Close to kandy city.
Etablissement très bien situé à Kandy, sur les hauteurs, au calme, possibilité de se rendre à pied au centre ville ! La chambre était grande, spacieuse, lumineuse, propre et confortable. Très bon rapport qualité prix avec le petit-déjeuner excellent, copieux et varié. Nous avons été très bien accueilli ! Toute l'équipe est souriante, attentionnée et aux petits soins !
Hotel polozony 10 minut spacerem od jeziora Kandy. Przemiły personel, bardzo pomocny.
Hotel budżetowy, dobra jakość do ceny.
Smaczne sniadania
Usługa prania - ubrania zostały co najwyżej przeplukane
The staff are very helpful!
Las vistas son maravillosas. El personal nos ayudó a subir el equipaje. Como no había lugar para poner la maleta, nos proporcionaron una mesa pequeña. La habitación tiene hervidor y sobres de café y té de cortesía. En el baño hay botecitos de champú y gel. El desayuno es muy completo y el comedor tiene las mejores vistas.
La ubicación está en alto. Ya lo sabíamos pero no nos imaginábamos tanto. Para ir al centro de la ciudad, lo hacíamos caminando y es un paseo agradable pero, para volver, había que tomar un tuktuk, nos cobraban 300 rupias. La wifi, igual que en el resto de alojamientos del país, va regular.
Las vistas y la luz de la habitación. Los desayunos y el comedor donde los sirven. En el baño había gel y champú. Tuvimos espacio para poner el equipaje.
La cama de matrimonio es incómoda en la habitación que estuvimos. Se oyen los ruidos del pasillo, recomiendo llevar tapones porque algún huésped no sabe hablar en voz baja a ciertas horas.
Host was a good person
A little bit up side
Comfortable bed, good location, good shower & reliable WiFi. Very nice breakfast and really friendly, lovely staff.
The main door to our room had a gap around it when shut which meant we could hear outside noise. Dogs barking until early hours and the crows early morning resulted in a disturbed night of sleep. Our room was the only one on the ground floor so possibly the only one with this issue.
Toller Blick vom Balkon. Leckeres Frühstück.
Einfache recht dünne Matratzen.
Bardzo ładny widok z pokoju i restauracji. W hotelu bardzo czysto. Obsługa bardzo miła. Spokojna okolica.
Pokój dość mały. Słabe ciśnienie wody pod prysznicem.
I spent one night at this hotel while travelling through Sri Lanka. The hotel is located very close to the centre of Kandy, but it is uphil,l so be prepared for a 15 minute walk uphill or just take a tuk-tuk (cost to train station is around 400-500LKR). The room was ok, with 2 single beds, nice and clean bathroom and a small balcony. They also offer complimentary breakfast, standard as for Asia – eggs, toasts and fresh fruits. They also have a beer for a price just slightly higher than in the shop.
Die Unterkunft war super. Die Zimmer war gut ausgestattet und sauber. Klimaanlage war sehr angenehm, tolle Aussicht, bequeme Betten, alles bestens. Der Hotelbesitzer ist super nett und hilfsbereit. Er hat uns zahlreiche Tipps gegeben und seinen TukTuk Fahrer für uns organisiert. Auch bei unserer weiteren Planung hat er uns sehr geholfen. Das Frühstück war auch klasse, nichts zu bemängeln. Ausserdem ist die Lage auch sehr gut, man muss nicht weit laufen bis in die Innenstadt. Immer wieder gerne!

Gentillesse, conseils,services. Le patron parle le français . Le petit déjeuner est parfait .
Das Familienzimmer, das wir gebucht hatten, hat uns nicht gefallen. Die Luft, die durch die Klimaanlage kam, stank. Wir haben eine Nacht ohne AC geschlafen und dann um ein anderes Zimmer gebeten. Der Hotelmanager war sehr freundlich und überaus hilfsbereit! Er hat uns für die zweite Nacht das Luxuszimmer im obersten Geschoss gegeben, ohne hierfür einen Aufpreis zu berechnen. Er hat auch sofort einen Handwerker kommen lassen, der die Klimaanlage in unserem vorherigen Zimmer prüfen sollte. Er hat uns auch einmal vom Krankenhaus in Kandy abgeholt und im Stadtzentrum abgesetzt, ohne etwas von uns zu verlangen! Sehr zuvorkommend und immer um das Wohl seiner Gäste bemüht. Das Frühstück war auch lecker, wir genossen die wunderbare Aussicht und die Affen, die von außen durch die Scheibe geschaut haben. Wir können Highest View weiterempfehlen, insbesondere das Luxuszimmer!
Μεγάλο δωμάτιο για 1 άτομο με μπαλκονι και θέα .Το μπάνιο ειναι μεγαλο με είδη καθαρισμού και πετσέτα
Εχει πολλές σκάλες που με κούρασαν
The lake view, Breakfast
Pyszne śniadania i miły personel, widok z pokoju na całe miasto z jeziorem, uczciwa cena transportu na dworzec zorganizowany przez właściciela
Jeden punkt świetlny w pokoju nad moskitierą, co sprawiało że pokój był niedoświetlony
Habitación limpia, contaba con menaje bastante completo (hervidor de agua , café y té , tazas, gel, champú y gorro de baño). Además desde el primer piso y el restaurante tiene bonitas vistas.
Cuenta con servicio de lavandería pero el precio que nos aplicaron no fue el acordado y a parte, nos devolvieron algunas prendas con manchas marrones que previamente no tenían. Además para que intentáramos contratar el siguiente traslado con ellos , nos dijeron que el precio que nos daba la app pick me iba a ser el doble de lo que estábamos viendo, lo que es falso , para que de este modo su oferta fuese la mejor.
The view from the room and the staff were amazing.
Hotel bem localizado com uma vista bonita sobre a cidade. Anfitriões super simpáticos e prestativos! Bom pequeno almoço. Voltaremos concerteza!
Der Blick beim Frühstück auf Kandy ist wirklich phänomenal und das Frühstück war prima! Leider hatte ich im Zimmer was vergessen und wurde innerhalb von 10 Minuten nach Abreise darüber informiert und konnte zum abholen noch umkehren :-)
La camera tripla all'ultimo piano è un gioiello: enorme per dimensioni, pulitissima e con una splendida vista su Kandy e il lago. Le altre camere sono più anguste ma per l'esigua differenza di prezzo consiglio la tripla anche per una coppia. Posizione ottima appena fuori il casino del centro città raggiungibile con una passeggiata di 15 min (al ritorno data la salita è consigliato un tuk tuk).
Schoon en super aardig personeel!!
Beautiful clean room. Friendly staff. Delicious breakfast. Splendid view of Kandy lake and Tooth temple from restaurant balcony. Easy to walk to center and lake. Loved watching monkeys prancing about on adjacent rooftops.
All wonderful.
L'hôtel est bien situé, à quelques roupies en tuk tuk ou à quelques minutes à pieds du centre historique de la ville. La vue depuis le balcon de la chambre ou du restaurant est très plaisante. Nous avons pu avoir la chambre à 9h à notre arrivée à Kandy, ainsi nous avons pu nous reposer avant de sortir (il pleuvait beaucoup). Le gérant de l'établissement ainsi que le personnel sont très professionnels, agréables et serviables. A notre arrivée au Sri Lanka, la compagnie aérienne a égaré nos bagages. Ils ont été délivrés 2/3 jours plus tard à l'hôtel. Le gérant de l'hôtel a géré la communication avec la compagnie pour la réception des bagages. Ils sont arrivés à 5h30 du matin alors que nous étions sortis (pour une excursion) et un employé les a récupéré à cette heure-là. Le petit déjeuner est excellent et copieux, fraichement cuisiné. Tout était parfait.
