The Grand Walawwa
190/8, Kandy Road, Kegalle, 71000 Pinnawala, Sri Lanka – Great location - show map
Amazing restored colonial hotel - incredible rooms, stylishly and tastefully restored and updated. Takes you back to times gone by. Certainly worth a stay - and also not a bad run through to the international airport as a stop if coming from Ella/mountains. Food was excellent and good menu.
