2-Star Hotels in Kandy

The host was too kind. Our stay was excellent. Please bear in mind that it’s not a hotel as mentioned here, rather a home stay. But it’s very good. It’s a little away from the city but the views are great from the balcony. You can check the pictures.

Overall it's good, the view of the lake outside the window is beautiful. The location is easy to find, although it is also on the mountain, but the road conditions have improved. Rich breakfast and good service. Needs improvement: The lobby is old and even a little shabby. There is a primary school under the window, and the drums and trumpets start to sound at around six o'clock. If you see a monkey by the window in the morning, you should close the window in time. There is dirt on the sink that has not been cleaned for a long time.

Я не могу оставить отзыв об этом отеле. Потому что, когда я приехала туда, все комнаты в отеле были заняты. Хотя я бронировала за 2 дня до приезда. Но это не испортило моего настроения. Потому что меня сразу же отвезли в другой отель. В котором все было идеально. Хозяева отеля молодцы. Быстро разрулили ситуацию. У меня не осталось негативного настроения. Поэтому ставлю 5☆ за этот отель.

Even when I turned the water up to its hottest setting, it was still lukewarm and cold. The hotel staff were kind and helped me out when I forgot how to lock the door.

We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Ganthera and the staff were friendly however the room itself could have been improved. For example, there was distinct black marks on the walls and some mould in the bathroom but we understand the climate is humid (also some dead bugs). Bed area was clean and satisfactory and we slept well. The front door is locked at night so beware if needing to leave early - staff are not attentive to this. Whilst we did not use the pool area, the view was nice and pool looked good. Overall we enjoyed our stay but would probably not come back.

设施：热水压力过大，偏冷水方向，当心燙，墊地上的毛巾與地砖滑爽，当心跌倒，窗临主干道，車輛頻繁熱鬧，如果不是倒頭即睡的朋友慎选，警醒者基本不入睡，建議老板改成双层玻璃，应該是旅客不錯的選擇。接下來讲讲可以選擇這家酒店的理由，如果你是一覺到天亮的朋友，建議你選擇這家民宿，一是房間面積還是比較宽敞，临街市景相對接地氣，对面飲食，面包店不抱理想的可以就近將就選擇，重點來了，康提是在山上，許多民宿都可能在山坡上，但是這家店鋪在城边，走到佛牙寺不消15分鐘，老城就在眼前，從火車站走到酒店1.5公里，不建議走，嘟嘟車，打個車350元当地币种，可以省心免推拉行李箱，因為一條斜坡路吃力，一條平坦路上街沿寬不足几十公分，且七高八低的路面，打車🚗省力，但是小城交通堵塞，繁忙時間注意影響行程，适当提前，自駕另当別论，佛牙寺边即是康提湖，打車到皇家植物園5.5 KM. 很多打車🚗的地方。如果對后來者有些幫助，值得写上这些信息。早餐比較簡單中簡單，一杯果汁加二片面包一个鸡蛋餅，不讲究的話接受吧！

Check-in is too troublesome! After arriving at the hotel, I will automatically provide passports and orders to the elderly in the store. Look left and right. Call me to wait for 30 minutes. I didn’t see him. I saw him go to dinner and asked him if he could stay. Is there any problem? He said wait and sit in the lobby and watch A4 paper without talking. I don’t know if he thinks about it. What is it that I don’t check in and finally find his subordinates to agree to stay. It takes 2 hours. It’s really hard. Is it so difficult to stay? The hotel does not have an elevator. It is very inconvenient.

It is said that the lake view room, in fact, can not see the lake, are blocked by some buildings under construction! From the hotel lobby to go down two floors, moving the box is really inconvenient, but the waiter has helped, or really have to fall with the box. The facilities in the room are OK, that is, the plug is a little less. Dinner and breakfast are eaten here, the dinner is normal, the breakfast is very good.

The owners and employees at this hotel are so, so lovely. Unfortunately their hotel is not. I almost feel catfished as many of the photos highlighted the bar and pool party atmosphere. This was not the case - the pool was a decent size but in the shade and I actually didn’t see anyone in it. The pool party drinking shots I highly suspect were perhaps not a genuine source. The same goes for the bar which is massive and attended to by several lovely young, bored gentlemen as both times I popped up (once for dinner) I was the only patron. Again no party atmosphere or even people - which is a shame as it is a big venue. Fortunately next door was another venue for some decent cocktails and music which saved the boredom somewhat. The bedroom was a decent size with a small fridge (but didn’t work), the bathroom was small, felt dirty, no hand soap or soap for the shower (apart from leftover previous occupants - and that was gross). The pressure was poor making showering difficult and there was plaster on the floor from some damage - not cleaned up. The bed was massive and comfortable with air conditioning and a fan so sleep was good. Finally, and to repeat, the staff were lovely. Very hospitable and the location is about a ten minute walk to the Sacred Tooth Temple and Kandy Lake. So great location. Would I stay there again - no. Would I pop in to say hello to the owners and next door for a cocktails - possibly!
