The property is situated 2.5 km from Kandy City Center Shopping Mall, 4.2 km from Kandy Royal Botanic Gardens and 4.9 km from Ceylon Tea Museum. The property is non-smoking and is located 2.3 km from Bogambara Stadium. Our stay at Ku’Vana Hostel Kandy was truly enjoyable. The room is simple and very comfortable, with clean and cozy beds that made for a good night’s sleep. Bathrooms are well maintained and tended to daily, which we really appreciated. The facilities are straightforward, but everything worked smoothly, and the atmosphere was welcoming and relaxed. The location is excellent just a short distance from the city centre, making it easy to explore Kandy, yet still quiet enough to enjoy some peace. What really stood out was the hospitality. The staff were incredibly warm, friendly, and always ready to help with anything we needed. Breakfast each morning was a highlight delicious, generous, and a great start to the day. For the price this hostel offers exceptional value. Clean, convenient, and filled with genuine hospitality it felt more like staying with friends than in a hostel. We would definitely choose to stay here again when we return to Kandy.

Bunty is very helpful and kind. If you want, he will show you around by car. He's always there to help you if needed or for a chat. Breakfast was very good and typically Sri Lankan. It's also possible to eat dinner at Buntys place, which was also very tasty. The House offers a little Garden and the area is calm. As a female solo traveller i felt safe.

Kandy
Located in Kandy, 7.8 km from Kandy City Center Shopping Mall, The Bliss Hostel Kandy provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace. The property is situated 8.6 km from Bogambara Stadium, 8.8 km from Kandy railway station and 10 km from Kandy Museum. Kandy Royal Botanic Gardens is 13 km from the hostel and Pallekele International Cricket Stadium is 19 km away. We initially planned for only 2 nights, however extended our stay as we loved The Bliss! We stayed in the superior queen room, which is even better than the photos show. Lovely, clean accomodation situated amongst serene nature and a beautiful garden at an amazing price point. We had minimal issues with bugs/mosquitoes during our stay. Thanu and Chathura were fantastic, and make you feel like you’re at home. We had freshly prepared dinner by Thanu most nights, and the dishes were superb! Organise your tuk tuk through their driver Aja - very reasonable prices, though be prepared to hold on tight haha. We organised a day tour with him and his brother to Sigirya, Dambulla and Pirandugala at a really good price! They were both excellent. The accomodation is out of the town centre which is part of its appeal. It’s not hard to hail a tuk tuk either to the accomodation (ask the manager to talk to the driver to direct them), or on the main road. Alternatively getting the bus into Kandy was super easy - walk 10 mins down to the main road by the river and ask the locals where to stand for the bus stop. There are so many buses that pass by. Let the bus drivers assistant know you’re going to Kandy and they’ll let you know if you’re getting on the right bus. The bus fare ranges between 35-45 rupees one way. If you want to get the bus back just ask the locals (at the main Kandy bus terminal we got 613 towards Digana, and got off at the bottom of Jambugahapitiya Road then walked up to The Bliss). Overall, an absolute must stay in Kandy! Stunning accomodation at an amazing price point, with kind and heartfelt service from their staff. We will definitely be back if we return to Kandy.

Friendly staff that willing to help. I would say that the staff went beyond and above to help for the transportation and also the location that you planned to go. Whatever you have any queries they are trying their best to help you 👍

Definitely the best stay we had in Sri Lanka. An idyllic and beautiful place we’ve only seen in the movies so far. The hosts are super lovely and recommended us things to do and places to eat at that are authentic and charge local prices. Definitely drive with the host’s go-to Tuk Tuk driver Gehan. He is super sweet and careful of your safety in Kandy plus you won’t find any cheaper Tuk Tuk anyway. All in all 10/10.
The value you get in this property is the best so far I've had for a hostel/dorm. It came with free breakfast and dinner! It had hot water, AC and free towels. Although the facility itself is not "vibey", it is clean and comfortable located in a safe and pretty accessible from the main area/city center. You also do get to meet other people as dinner and breakfast are served along with other guests.
I had a very comfortable stay at the Queens mount Ridge Kandy. First of all it is value for the money. That was more than expected. Calm and safe environment. Even can recommend for a solo traveling girl. Friendly staff. Clean and the hotel is build to get maximum natural sunlight which is really cool. I like the rooftop pool and the seating area. Beautiful mount and city view. Closer to city. Overall 5 stars budget hotel.
Not far from the train and the bus stations, this place is a old house rehabilited in an hostel. It's really beautiful and in perfect condition ! I've felt living luxury for a cheap price ! And the hosts are always available to help you whatever the moment of the day or night with good advices.
The host was very welcoming and provided us with lots of great suggestions on where to eat in the Kandy area. The room and bathroom facilities were exceptionally clean and overall the hostel is positioned in a great location, only a 10 min walk from the station and 15 mins walk from Kandy Lake
Great location and amazing views over Kandy from the rooftop pool. It was everything you'd expect from a luxury hotel (we are normally budget travellers but splurged for a couple of nights!) Breakfast was exceptional, a full buffet/help yourself to as much as you want - the french toast was a particular highlight! The staff were also extremely helpful and quick with everything.
The staff very helpful and guide me greatly, the beds super clean and fortunately not bunk beds. The area of the hostel feels like your own home. Highly recommend
I have no hesitation in saying this - it is the best hostel to stay if you’re in Kandy! Very social, aforable doggos, value for money, lovely hosts and great location. I would go back again and again!
