Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers breathtaking views in the mountains with cozy rooms and attentive service. The dining options could be improved, but the facilities are top-notch. The price is reasonable for the overall experience.
This hotel offers a unique experience in the real jungle, far up in the mountains. The rooms provide breathtaking views, but the dining options are limited. The service is exceptional, making the stay truly memorable.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel nestled in the mountains of Kandy. The rooms offered amazing views, and the service was exceptional. However, the dining options were limited, and the location, while beautiful, was a bit secluded. The facilities were top-notch, but there were some minor issues with the pricing.
