Set 6.7 km from Bogambara Stadium, The Traveller Kandy offers accommodation with a garden, a terrace and room service for your convenience. Both WiFi and private parking are accessible at the lodge free of charge.

If I could stay here forever I would. I stayed here cumulatively for about two weeks. I left and then came back again. It's tucked away in Tennekumbura, not far from Kandy, within walking distance to anything you need. Short bus ride to downtown Kandy is conveniently just down the hill. Ideal if you're looking for somewhere relaxing and private but still want access to downtown. Incredible views, great room, wonderful people...couldn't ask for better stay.

Before arrival I told the owner that it was by boyfriends birthday and the next day was our anniversary! When we arrived we got drinks but also a cake!! I didn’t ask for it, but they surprised him good! Very good service. When we thought it couldn’t get better, they got us flower with the breakfast! The service is very very good. They really want you to have the best experience. Also clean beautiful rooms with a nice view and very good shower. I would very much recommend you stay here while in Kandy.

This was a real gem in Kandy! The view was amazing and the service from booking to departure was really accommodating and great. Very caring host and caretaker, nothing was too much trouble as I was travelling with my family and needed to ensure it was safe and the menu worked with our special requirements. It was really good value for money compared to the other properties in the area. I highly recommend this property and would stay there again next time we come to the area. Loved our stay. We ate a couple of meals from the property and the caretaker gave us vegetables and fruits grown at the premises which was awesome. The property was very new and clean and the internet worked very well in all the rooms we booked.

    Sky Lodge is the best accomodation we've booked so far. The location/view is simply perfect. The dinner and breakfast are also great. The owner Summit is really nice and gave us tips for what to do, and arranged a tuktuk for the departure. Definitely book this accomodation if you're planning staying around Kandy!

    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.

    This place was beautiful. The lodges were perfectly clean and lovely. The views from this lodges are perfect. The food was delicious and the team were very accomodating with our halal food preference. The best thing about this place is the very kind and lovely staff. We had the best hospitality particularly from staff member Visha. He was constantly friendly and always making sure we were looked after. It made our stay perfect. Highly recommend a stay at the beautiful Madulkelle honeymoon suite 😊

    SWP Eco Lodge is centrally located to the Temple of the Sacred Tooth. It is literally a 5 minute walk across the street and so is Kandy Lake. Location is the best part of this hotel, and the friendly staff always willing to help. Our main concern was safety, and we felt safe during our stay. The views of Kandy Lake and the Temple of the Scared Tooth are amazing from our balcony of our room and from the kitchen. This hotel is recommend is highly recommended if coming to see the annual Kandy Perehera.
