    The staff were amazing! So nice and helpful. The room was big and exactly as advertised. We loved the balcony to watch the sunset. The kids loved cooling off in the pool after a long day. It’s definitely an interesting drive up the hill from Kandy but so worth it for the views. The food was excellent! It is cash only so just make sure you bring enough ahead of time. Definitely recommend this hotel!

    The drive up to the hotel was on steep small roads, so it was not conveniently located, but we managed to get a nice tour of Kandy.

    The property was high above the city and had a beautiful view of the area.

    Incline getting up to the hotel, tuktuk struggled alittle bit. Finding the hotel on locations was difficult. Cannot really order food from pickme. Hotel has a restaurant.

    Very lovely hotel, very peaceful, good view overlooking the pool and mountains. Clean. Friendly staff. Breakfast was great.

    The Change Hotel was exactly what we were looking for. a locally run hotel with incredible views from its hilltop location. Our family room slept 2 adults and 2 children comfortably with an amazing view of the valley and mountains surrounding the area. There is a swimming pool perfect for a dip after a hot day sightseeing. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Highly recommend and would come back.

    The Change is a beautiful and charming place. Perfectly located on the hill, with a very nice view. The Staff was very friendly and supporting. We had a wonderful stay at this place. We had only time for one night. Two days are better, to have enough time enjoying Kandys attractions.

    We don’t mind not having the room cleaned daily, but could do little fresh up when somebody is staying longer (we stayed 4 nights) - perhaps people usually stay shorter

    Great atmosphere, family run by super nice people, great value for money, beautiful view from the balcony, in the city but hidden in the jungle hills with wildlife and tropical greenery, very nicely designed by the owner, rustic with a good taste, authentic, nice food with a home made feeling (ask if you want other things than in the menu), nice little pool, chilling on the terrace or the dining area open to the garden

    In the room there was no Wi-Fi, the signal didn't reach the room. Although the location is perfect if you want to be in peace, is a bit far from the city.

    Very friendly staff. The cook is great, she even babysit our baby while we were eating. Peaceful place. The garden is small but very beautil.

    all was good

    Quite, clean, nice place, with great view from a specious balcony and a small but clean swimming pool. Nice host, friendly and helpful. Absolutly great in its price range. Remote, 6km from the main tourist circuse, tooth temple and other atractions. But a possibility to escape from the touristic hell is worth taking 20min tuktuk ride, partly uphill. downhill walk is A pleasure. other place is highly recomanded.

    To get there tuk tuk drivers are always confused, so good to let the tuk tuk driver call with the owner before leaving or during the ride.
