Hotels on the Lake in Kandy District from $27

"Conveniently close to the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic and the lake. A non-alcohol hotel, because I’m told of its proximity to the Temple. Very nice and obliging staff."

"So overall this hotel was an excellent option. My room had a great view, especially at night with the city lights against the mountainsides. The lock on the door, although it did lock, was a bit difficult and frustrating. However, Kandy City stay does get high marks for staff and their local tours. The hotel’s (mainly elephant park) was excellent and very economical. "

"Beautiful grounds and spacious rooms with proficient AC. Easy check in and enjoyed the restaurant and room service. Staff was helpful and courteous. We will stay here again. "

"Great property. Will be back "

"Great hotel in scenic location but a bit out of centre. The staff were outstanding and the service faultless. "

"Amazing view of Kandy from on top of the mountain! Great drink, food, and hospitality. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. 10/10 recommend "

"The Sevana doesn’t look like much from the outside, but inside is spacious with lots of public seating areas and great views from the rooftop. We stayed here on two separate occasions and both times it was very good. Rooms are comfortable, staff are helpful. There’s a filtered water fountain with reusable glass bottles you can take to your room. The hotel organised a car and driver for us; both the car and the driver were very good, which is not always the case in Sri Lanka. There’s not many good eating options nearby, but we did find a good little restaurant across the road which did excellent dosas. It’s easy to get a tuk tuk to wherever you want to go. "

"A beautiful hotel overlooking the city and lake in Kandy. Has everything you need for a comfortable stay. A nice rooftop bar to relax before a peaceful quiet sleep. "

"The staff are super friendly and helpful, especially Ryan on the front desk. The room we had was simple and clean, aircon worked great. The viewing area on the 4th floor is really nice."
