I didn't expect it to be so out of the way. The service was good, but we didn't for very long.

Die Position des Hotels wird bei Expedia falsch abgezeigt! Die wahre Position finden sie auf google maps. Sehr netter Unterkunftgeber. Da die Angabe zur Position bei Expedia falsch ist, die Ortschaft liegt 12 km außerhalb von Kandy, hat mir der Herr ohne extra was zu berechnen ein Abendessen gemacht. Die Zimmer sind sauber und die Klimaanlage hat gut funktioniert. Es werden keine Handtücher zur Verfügung gestellt. Das Frühstück ist sehr gut und reichlich. Ich habe den Pool nicht benutzt aber ich habe gesehen wie er täglich gereinigt wurde. Ich empfehle das Hotel eher für entspannte Tage abseits der Hektik einer Stadt. Als Ausgangspunkt für Besichtigungen in Kandy ist es ejer weniger zu empfehlen, man hat lange Anfahrtsweg mit dem Bus oder Tuk Tuk (Taxi). In der Nähe ist ein Wasserfall. Besonders wenn es geregnet hat ist er recht beeindruckend. Eine wanderung dort hin kann eine nette Abwechslung bieten.
