The host was very welcoming and gave us good directions and suggestions for what to do and where to eat. The family were so kind and even prepared a lunch pack for us as we told them we were leaving earlier than the breakfast time that was scheduled.

Staying at Dilruk Home Stay was an absolute delight.! The hosts were incredibly welcoming and accommodating, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated.

Earlier check-in was possible, nice view of the city, very friendly owners! Not too far from the city centre (5 min with a tuk tuk or 20 min walk)

The access to the house/room is a bit of a challenge. Very steep path and steep, narrow stairs. The bathroom needs some maintenance.

The view is beautiful and the family is really lovely and helpful. Breakfast was good.

Everything was really good, but the best part was breakfast. You won’t get a better one in Kandy 👌

Todo ok

Basic but clean and perfect family accommodation, 10 minutes walk from the center of Kandy, up a hill towards the mountain and then down some stairs. Super-attentive family. They advised and helped me a lot to get another train trip to Ella after my BookAway reservation was canceled

Very welcoming and friendly hosts, the room is comfortable and has everything you need. Beautiful view from the balcony and a nice price. I liked it, I recommend it

If we could give 11/10 we definitely would. The guest house was amazing, the bed was really comfortable and the bedroom was quite big. The bathroom was really clean and the shower had warm water as well. The view from the terrace was amazing both during the day and the night and the sound of the waterfall was extremely relaxing and enjoyable, not too loud from the bedroom. The position of the house is perfect, really close to the city center and quite close to the main landmarks. The family was super welcoming and gave us a lot of advices for the rest of our trip. We had a wonderful time sharing dinner, which was delicious. Shalith felt more like a friend than a host and it was super cool getting to know him. We strongly recommend this guest house and the price was really fair for the services and the experience. If we ever come back to Sri Lanka we'll go back for sure.

Wifi could be a bit stronger (luxury problems)

Very clean place, the hosts are lovely, no mosquito net but no little buggers around. Nice view from the terrace.

For improvement: Bad smell in the bathroom :( which came into the room as well. I woke up with stuffy nose in the mornings. Can hear people walking in the house above through the ceiling. The son of the lady made me feel very uncomfortable asking too many personal questions several times in a judgmental way about my marital status, why am I single, how am I gonna have kids, who is going to look after me when I get sick, these are very inappropriate questions to a guest especially bringing this up not once! Also he should not be messaging me 9pm on WhatsApp to go chit chat with him because he is bored. So more professionalism would be nice especially to solo female travellers! I didn’t want to bring down the rating much because it was a great place, but please improve these for the future.

Great location only 10 mins walk from the city centre. The room itself clean, great that there is a seating area outside the room with nice view. The mum who runs the place is very nice!

I had a very pleasant stay here and felt very comfortable. The family was very helpful and a great example of Sri Lankan hospitality. I got the additional breakfast and dinner and was always satisfied. I can highly recommend this rooms for pleasant stay.

Location is up in the hills. Around 20-25min walk to the train station. Be aware of the dogs on the way to this place- one of the dogs attacked me twice:(

Very comfortable room with large terrace and with amazing view. It’s possible to order a dinner and breakfast- both were super tasty!

Amazing time in Kandy, thanks to these guests. I had so much fun with the girls that own and run this place, they made ms feel like at home! If you want to visit temples and closest spot, ask them and you probably will enjoy also their company! Do not miss cooking class! Nice room and very clean. Thanks madames!

The soundproofing could be better, although is nice to hear the waterfall that goes along the homestay and which you can see from the balcony.

The room was very nice and comfortable. The location is pretty good, in a quiet area and the vjew is very nice from the balcony. Hot water in the shower and good wifi (considering Sri Lankas overall wifi). The family who owns the place is great, very nice and helpful, good english too.

Very good place and amazing host. Everything was absolutely clean. They served a light breakfast and dinner at last night. A big terrace with view to city. One of amazing thing it's a small waterfall nearby, you can heard it everytime.

The homestay was amazing. The family could help us with bus connections and recommended different places to visit. Apart from that we received a very good breakfast. Thank you very much, I would definitely recommend it.

the hostel is very high, so it's a long way up

very nice place with amazing view!

A bit far from the station, because it is one the mountain.

Super helpful host. They made breakfast really early for us so we could catch the early train. We didn’t spent much time at the home stay but the view was splendid.

Stayed in July 2022

Lovely room and very clean, the terrace looks out across Kandy. Bit of a hike up so if you have heavy bags maybe get a tuktuk from the station. Friendly host family.
