Sharon Inn enjoys views of the Kandy Lake, a 10-minute walk from the historical Temple of the Tooth. It offers a dining area, free parking on site and free Wi-Fi access.

Guests can request to have their dinner at the rooftop. Sri Lankan and Western dishes can be enjoyed at the dining area.

All of the staff was so very warm, friendly and helpful, and they were clearly invested in us having a good experience. We were welcomed with a DELICIOUS meal upon our (late) arrival and instantly made to feel at home. We appreciated the company of the owner who even shared a few songs with us, and we were able to arrange plans for a guided tour the next day which was also very lovely.

    Very beautiful house. Very good value for money. Super friendly and helpful host. They give you tips on places to visit and also on public transport. The owner even helped me to solve my problem with the other booking when I went to a next destination. Beautiful landscapes. You can order breakfast and dinner there. Would definitely recommend.

    Beautiful views and very nice family! The owner is so sweet and made sure we were happy. He dropped us to a restaurant and also dropped us at the bus station the next day. They cook breakfast and dinner and it was our favourite breakfast in Sri Lanka! They have a lovely rustic kitchen for your use if you wish, we loved it. Wifi is a bit iffy but that’s okay. We loved our stay!

    It’s a really nice guest house with a really nice family. It’s up the hill so at night you will hear only sounds of nature. You can order a dinner. I asked about rice with vegetables and it was really tasty. Breakfast consists of fruits, avocado, toasts. Room could look a bit shabby but it’s clean. The price is nice and reasonable.

    We had a great experience at Villa49. Shanani and Upi are very welcoming hosts and are always there to help. The guest house is located quite central in Kandy, with all exciting sightseeing points within walking distance range. We had breakfast and also dinner at Villa49, and it was both truly delicious. Rooms are very nice and spacious too! Highly recommend that place for a stay in Kandy!

    Uniquely built little rustic boutique hotel, over looking the Kandy Lake with the view of the Tooth Temple across the lake. Superb staff, very friendly and warm towards their guests. No fixed hours for lunch or dinner, restaurant is open whenever guests wish to have a meal. We tried various things from the restaurant menu, they were all quite delicious, and reasonably priced. Very happy with the place and the service.
