The host was just amazing, he was so helpful to find out what to do around Kandy, really very patient, even helped to give directions to the tuktuk. He made the experience very worthwhile. The place was also really clean and nice and very comfortable. Would definitely recommend staying here.

For two days, I felt at home! The owner isn't your typical businessman who's just out to make a profit, but a sweet and warm person who cares about your experience. He cooks excellent traditional Sri Lankan dishes and can give you all the tips you need on the most unmissable places to visit in the city and the country. I would come back here a thousand and one nights. Thank you for everything!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
