During my recent stay I had the pleasure of interacting with Taranga, the front office in charge. Their warmth and efficiency made check-in a breeze, and throughout my stay, they were always ready to assist with any inquiries or requests. The reception team as a whole was incredibly welcoming and hospitable, creating a comfortable atmosphere from the moment I arrived. Special mention goes to Roshan the restaurant manager, whose friendly demeanor and attentive service added to the overall exceptional experience. I highly recommend the Golden Crown Hotel for its outstanding staff and impeccable service.

Kandy is a beautiful town with so much to see and do.

Kandy is a beautiful town with so much to see and do. It’s the perfect central base for exploring nearby highlights like Nuwara Eliya and other major sightseeing spots. The famous Kandy–Ella train ride is a wonderful experience with stunning views. Kandy Lake is lovely for an evening walk, and the local markets — especially the Sunday market — are absolutely worth visiting. The Dalada Maligawa (Temple of the Tooth) is a must-see; try to go in the evening when it’s cooler and the atmosphere is even more peaceful. Overall, Kandy is a charming town that offers culture, scenery, and convenience all in one.

Our trip around Kandy was truly memorable! We loved visiting the Temple of the Tooth, strolling around the peaceful lake, and exploring the vibrant local markets. The botanical gardens were stunning, and everything was easy to reach from the train station. Great food, kind people, and beautiful scenery all around.

People advised us to have 2 days in Kandy - we would have been fine with just one. The weather did not help us it rained on and off the entire time we were there. Temple of the Sacred Tooth - tick - walk around the Botanical gardens - tick - Shopping DISMAL - Kandyan dance performance extremely touristy. I wish we had allocated an extra day for the hill country instead of Kandy, Best meal we had was at the Hideaway Lounge. Central market - awful fresh food and spices but seriously hideous tourist souvenirs. Old building needs renovation.

Kandy is an interesting historic city, with a number of must see sights - the Temple of The tooth, a walk around the lake, the Big Buddha. Peradeniya Botanical Gardens are just on the edge of the city. The market is bustling. If you are there in late July/early August you may catch the Perahera Festival - a parade of dressed elephants, fire whirlers, Kandy Dancers, Drummers and whip crackers.

The city centre is very polluted but there is a lot to see and it is worth exploring. I highly recommend taking a tuk tuk tour to visit the sights. We had an adventurous day out with Explore Kandy with Sajith Tuk Tuk Tours.

Amazing old hotel with a classic elevator, high ceilings, bar and pool area, and possibly the best breakfast buffet I have sat at so far in Sri Lanka. The staff were super friendly and helpful, polite and smiling. If I had more time in Kandy, I would have stayed here for longer. The location by the lake is perfect and a short walk to every possible type of food you want. Across the road is an entrance to Sri Dalada Waruna temple so visit anytime.

Lovely hotel, very comfortable rooms with big bathrooms and a nice restaurant. For the price we were very impressed with Kandy Hills, easily the best value for money during our 2 weeks travelling around Sri Lanka. We wanted to look round Kandy and found this hotel very well placed. On the hill just out of the center, it is about 10 minutes walk to the lake, and, another five to get to the temple of the tooth (if you like walking)

Amazing location within walking distance to the town and with amazing views over the lake. The staff were excellent, friendly and nothing too much trouble. The food in the restaurant was excellent and the Sri Lankan curry was exceptional and good value too - prices generally match the standard of the hotel apart from the breakfast - see below. Loved the modern design and most importantly the bed was super comfortable.

The location was good only 1.9km from railway station but because ti is new, no-one knew where the hotel was, TukTuk driver eventually found it as his grandmother lives in the area. You cannot walk to anywhere you need transport to get down into the town. Breakfast was ok but very expensive for what it was. $15pp. During our time travelling around Sri Lanka, we never paid much more than 1200 SLR (£3).

This place has lots of character, the inner yard is beautiful and peaceful. Little oasis in the hustle and bustle of Kandy town. Super friendly staff! We really enjoyed breakfast at the hotel restaurant and definitely recommend dinner at the traditional sri lankan restaurant downstairs for those who are more adventurous for some local "spicy" food.
