Old school Dream
This place is amazing, the service was exceptional from arrival to departure, staff are very helpful and pleasant. We had Chulan who looked after us during our stay and was very attentive and helpful. This place is old charm but with modern day facilities. The food was excellent with good choices for both breakfast and dinner. I would truly recommend this bungalow if you are ever going to Kandy.

Beautiful accommodation but need own transport
Mountbatten Bungalow was amazing. It’s very luxurious accommodation and the staff were great. Our room was huge with a comfortable bed, there was a huge bath in the bathroom and a good shower too. The house is well decorated and the gardens and pool area were beautiful. Breakfast was tasty too. Our only complaint is that it was quite difficult to get into Kandy from Mountbatten Bungalow. The staff do not help you with transport and there is no van or list of drivers phone numbers available. The staff told us just to walk so every time we wanted to go out we had to walk down the hill until we could find a tuk tuk. One day it was raining and we still had to walk in the rain due to no assistance from the staff with transport. If you are not fit or don’t want to walk then you will need to bring your own driver.

Peaceful mountain retreat
Our recent stay was excellent. Staff approach was professional, efficient , courteous & friendly. Nothing was too much trouble! We thoroughly enjoyed staying in the garden bungalow, looking into the forest & waking to the birds twittering. Allow time to sit around the horizon pool & read memorabilia displayed inside the bungalow. It's a pity we didn't stay longer!

Our first night in Sri Lanka and it is the best one in 7 days. Nice room, excellent food and fantasy pool. Only drawback was that it was too far away from the downtown.

Gorgeous location
This is a really beautiful hotel in the hillsides of Kandy with gorgeous views and a lovely garden and swimming pool. Its about 20 min tuktuk to Kandy city. The staff are sweet but some are whimsical and you can wait quite a while to get your food or drink. The interior needs to be reworked. Breakfast is good but dinner was disappointing.

History Views & tranquility
Great spot & view over Kandy is fab! A very historical guesthouse. Pool is awesome and food was great. Not a great wine list for a wine living family, however G&Ts were on point. We were surprised we were not staying in the old homestead when we were lead to cabins, however the cabins were spotless & well appointed and worked well for our family of 4. The kids had one next to ours and everyone was very comfortable. The gardens were magnificent and so cared for! We would definitely visit again.

Professionally Managed Superb Getaway
The staff and manager were highly professional. The buiding and gardens were in superb condition. My room was luxurious. Breakfast in the garden was a treat. My driver too was well looked after. I aim to re-visit this beautiful property if at all possible and stay a little longer so as to enjoy the pampering and the quiet comfort of the pool and gardens.
