Lijkt heel sjiek; was het ooit ook, maar nu gedateerd. Ontbijt wel super. En erg behulpzaam en vriendelijk personeel.

Ontbijt is super en personeel erg vriendelijk

Erg gedateerd, viezig en versleten. Verschrikkelijke geur uit de badkamer op sommige momenten.

Everything Was Brilliant.

10.0

The Atmosphere in this hotel is Royal. It feels more luxurious and royal than what you payed for so props to that. Rooms are good but my one fault about the rooms is that they have a pungent smell likely caused from the carpet Pool is excellent and the overall view of kandy surrounding it is superb. Service is excellent, chefs are good there’s ambient music wherever you will go and don’t get me started on the laundry service. Perfectly priced and the fold it neatly inside of their clean bags. The Grand Kandyons Laundry team is absolutely amazing. Noise level is also great and hotel walls drown out the sound well. I’m not a picky reviewer but this hotel hosts no complaints from me.

10.0

We had a wonderful stay at Grand Kandyan a truly luxurious Hotel. Starting from the GM Thusith Samaraweera Managers Hilary Smith, Ronald and many more and down to the room boy gave us excellent service. The food was absolutely delicious too. This is my 8th visit to the hotel and look foward to coming many more times.

Excellent Stay

10.0

We had an excellent stay here at the Grand Kandyan Hotel in Sri Lanka. From July 10-13,2026. From the moment we arrived until we checked out, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome. Everyone greeted us with warm smiles, was incredibly accommodating, and showed exceptional hospitality throughout our stay. We truly appreciated the thoughtful touches, especially the complimentary fresh fruits and delicious sweets that were prepared for us. These small gestures made our experience even more special. A special thank you to Lea and Angelique, who consistently checked on us to make sure we had everything we needed. Their attentiveness, kindness, and professionalism made us feel valued and well cared for. The hotel itself is beautifully designed, with elegant architecture and excellent amenities that made our stay both comfortable and relaxing. Overall, our experience at the Grand Kandyan Hotel was outstanding. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Kandy and would be delighted to stay here again in the future.
