Offering mountain views, Kandy Fortress is an accommodation set in Kandy, 5 km from Sri Dalada Maligawa and 5 km from Kandy Museum. With free private parking, the property is 3.9 km from Kandy City Center Shopping Mall and 4 km from Kandy railway station. The property is 3.8 km from Bogambara Stadium, and within 1.1 km of the city centre.

First of all, it's a whole floor for you in a small house, so you a completely alone and will not meet anybody on your territory :) something I wasn't expecting for such a low price actually Secondly, the renovation/decoration is amazing. White walls and floor, clean and spaceful bathroom. Again, it was completely unexpected 😅 Landlady even offered me traffic-coupons for my SIM-card due to Wi-Fi wasn't working!

    Our two hosts were remarkably friendly, attentive and helpful. While the accommodation is located on the outskirts of Kandy (and is thus very quiet - a big plus in our opinion), the city centre and all the major sights are easily reachable by tuktuk. Our corner room with a balcony had a beautiful view over the river and the surrounding countryside. The breakfast - especially the fresh fruit - was delicious, varied and more than we could eat.

    Fabulous old hotel, needs a lot of love to be lavished on it and then I am sure it could be restored to its former glory. Location excellent, traffic a bit noisy but what do you expect for city centre. I liked the pool and loved the ambience of the hotel.

    The hotel's lobby is spacious and cozy, creating a welcoming atmosphere. While the food was average, the gym and spa facilities were excellent, providing a relaxing experience. I found Tharanga reception staff's, to be incredibly helpful and accommodating. Their attention to detail and friendly demeanor made my check-in process so easy. I highly recommend the Golden Crown Hotel for its outstanding service and great amenities.

    Location was super! Room was new, nice and clean! You have also a little sofa there. Big plus for the washing machine! I got help with that right away :) Gayani is super lovely host with her son. One evening she brought me a little taste of Sri Lankan food, which was super lovely! Her husband I only texted with and he always replied very fast. I enquired also a mosquito net, and got it right away. The view from the apartement is amazing and you have a cozy balcony full of plants. Thank you so much! Overall my stay was super nice in Kandy!

    Great atmosphere! Lots of old world charme. Very friendly and helpful personnel. Spacious! We had a junior suit that is one big room of about 60m2! Good breakfast. Charming bathroom with bathtub and shower and plenty of Hot water! The Bar is also worth a visit. We would definitely stay here again! However, Many things in the hotel are a bit torn and rickety, we find that to be part of the charme, but you should consider it before you book.

    You can agree with the owners about a convenient breakfast time. You can choose from tea or coffee, black or with milk. The location is away from the city, but in a quiet and cozy place, without the bustle of the city. You can walk to the city center in 45-50 minutes. The hosts are very hospitable and kind people.

    Eranga was an extremely accommodating and charming host. He came to collect us directly from the train station and had lots of information and recommendations to help us make the most of our stay in Kandy and beyond. He is a very kind man, and White Lodge feels very much like a homestay. Furthermore, the rooms, whilst simple, were very clean and well-maintained. The view from the balcony is lovely. A comfortable bed and an extremely quiet location made for a very good night's sleep.
