This hotel next to Sigiriya opened in 2014 and is unusual in that whilst there are extremely comfortable rooms ( all decorated in a minimalist style), they also have tented rooms (which also have all the modern conveniences such as queen Anne size beds with thick mattresses and AC), where you can discover the thrill of having some adventure yet with some luxury! The fabulous backdrop to the hotel is the rock fortress at Sigiriya and to the left, Pidurangala Rock Temple.
This hotel is a very beautiful old manor house dates back to the 18th century and was owned by the head chieftain of Galle which still retains its essential features of courtyards, columns and verandahs but has been converted to a really luxurious small boutique hotel that uses many modern comforts. All the rooms lead off the central courtyard and pool.
The hotel itself, it nestles in 3 acres of beautiful gardens where you will find a fabulous pool tucked away in a quiet area surrounded by lush foliage.
From the hotel, it is only a 15 minute drive to Bandaranaike International Airport so is perfect either after a long flight, or if you have an early departure
Kandyan Manor is a traditional Walauwa located about a 20min drive from the centre of Kandy in and idyllic situation surrounded by rainforest and tea plantations. The manor house itself is very old and there are many old family pieces of furniture. The owners have tried hard to keep that feel of a “home from home”. There are 2 rooms in the house and 2 in small chalets overlooking the lush garden which do have a feel of great privacy. It is basic but the location, service and delectable food are real winners.
Offering excellent and affordable accommodation in Kandy, Hotel Thilanka has been recently refurbished to a very high standard throughout.
The hotel is set up high on the hill overlooking the city of Kandy and the historic Lake – it is on the same side of the Lake as the Temple of the Tooth, so is incredibly convenient for visiting the city. The hotel has a wonderful terrace with swimming pool which has great views of the Lake – it’s great to watch the sun going down over the hills here.
