They are quite similar. “Historic hotel” is a term often used in the US, whereas “heritage hotel” is common in Asia and Europe.

When you book a historic hotel in Kandy, it doesn’t mean you’re choosing a place that’s rundown.

5/5 Excellent
"I would have liked to see more vegetarian/vegan options on the dinner buffets. Location is about 15min from Kandy downtown -- depending on traffic this could be even longer. However, if you are looking for quite location this is perfect. "
