It may or may not be for you. It feels like stepping back in time. The place is a little shabby in places but if you want to have that feeling of living a bit of history it delivers. It’s an excellent location and the staff are all friendly and helpful. The pool offers a break from the noise of town and just generally- bring your ear plugs!

Downside; too many big tour groups use this hotel, so not so cosy, when you come as the only ones not part of a large group ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/52E6AAB6C93520509FBCBA17131B3F2FC53D813D1708917298370.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/630D735657C8754CAC280650437D7ABBC2D85EC41708917298121.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/D7C99A7FDE51A809F81120760CAEF814F95E7E131708917298481.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Line Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Rodney 3 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Very central. Very close to main attraction daladaha maligawa. ##### Rodney Stayed 1 night in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 23 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good Convenient location. Just close to all main attraction and restaurants, such as the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic and Kandy lake. The hotel itself looks elegant and the maintenance is quite good. I especially enjoy the life that you can feel the living history of the hotel. It is also conformable to stay in the room. Good choice or stay here of you visit Kandy. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Anne-Sofie 15 Dec 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Charming but in need of renovation We like the charm of old colonial hotels and would recommend it because of the great location but you should no that a lot of things don't always work. Staff is very friendly and helpful. I saw the one room that has been renovated and it aas very nice with modern bathroom and still the room with colonial style. ##### Anne-Sofie Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### hideyuki 17 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Good for business because of WIFI condition. LIght control at the bed side is very convenient ##### hideyuki Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Ian 1 Jan 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The hotel is desperately in need of a complete overhaul - my room was riddled with damp and mould with ineffective air conditioning. The staff are lovely and are the hotel's only saving grace. ##### Ian Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher 16 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Historic Hotel in Kandy If you like historic hotels this is for you. In a perfect location by the lake and opposite the Temple of the Tooth. The interior takes you right back to the 19th Century with its wooden floors and antique bar. The dinning room is old fashioned with a good mix of western and Sri Lankan food. Staff are very helpful and friendly. Everything about this hotel is the opposite of a modern bland corporate hotel. Staying here is an experience. ##### Christopher Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Alexander 12 Oct 2022 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Very tired and run down building and rooms. The bar was ok and the staff were friendly but I wouldn’t recommend staying here to anyone that I liked. ##### Alexander Stayed 1 night in Oct 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Francois 31 Jan 2024 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities This hotel is dirty….a rat come in my room during the night…and I saw another one in the hotel’s bar ##### Francois Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Susan 1 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Lovely historic hotel, yet sadly long overdue for a major renovation. Upgraded to a suite (thank-you), yet broken air conditioner that staff tried to fix with a broomstick/leaking ceilings in various rooms (dangerous on floorboards)/light bulbs broken & not replaced/dangerous electrical PowerPoints/shower mechanism broken & fell Off & hot water tap itself overheats & liable to burn. In a positive, bed & pillows comfortable, pool fantastic & staff very helpful. Particularly the Manager/CEO Mr Kumar. ##### Susan Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jorn 20 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Great old hotel Very nice old hotel with the best location in Kandy. One thing is bad - the lift. Its very old and people do not close the door after them. Then no-one can use the lift. Atmosphaire is fantastic. Staff is great. I always stay in Queens when I am in Kandy. ##### Jorn Stayed 1 night in Feb 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### daljeero 3 Feb 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property need an update, our bed roof leaked during a downpour the towels were old stained and had holes in them ##### daljeero Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kirsi 29 Jan 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Great surroundings. Lots of history. Unfriendly staff. The safely box didn't work ( somebody had taken the batteries). Nothing was done although I staff different staff members at least five times. ##### Kirsi Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### dominique 22 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service never had such a bad experience checking in, the girl (with glasses) at the reception was so rude it was laughable, I really got no idea how she got the job. the hotel is really nice and close to everything, but the rooms facing the main street get really noisy at night, the it gets quiet from 11 pm until 4am when the traffic (trucks, buses ect..) start again. ok for the location , the beauty of the hotel, the swimming pool, the bar , but avoid if you want some sleep . remember, be aware of the ignorant unprofessional lady at the reception! be ready to wait for a long time ! a long queue of people complaining when I left! ##### dominique Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Michael 4 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Disliked: Staff & service Keep your sense of humour and you'll get through the half to one hour check in process and you'll start to enjoy this quirky, totally inefficient hotel in the perfect location opposite the Temple of the Tooth. It's unapologetically rundown - but if you love heritage hotels you'll love this place. It has a nice restaurant with really lovely staff. It's the reception staff that desperately need training in how to deal with customers. We had zero explanation of why we were kept waiting for over half an hour. Very poor communication and generally inept. But again, get through the check in process and you'll be in heritage bliss - well, maybe not 'bliss' but you'll probably love the place anyway. ##### Michael Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Cinnamon Bentota Beach – Signature Selection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bentota-Hotels-Cinnamon-Bentota-Beach.h36466861.Hotel-Information) > > [Kahanda Kanda](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Angulugaha-Hotels-Kahanda-Kanda.h11263998.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Sri Lanka - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ahungalla-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Sri-Lanka-All-Inclusive.h14754284.Hotel-Information) > > [Pandanus Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Induruwa-Hotels-Pandanus-Beach-Resort-Spa.h11289546.Hotel-Information) > > [Vivanta Colombo, Airport Garden](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seeduwa-Katunayake-Hotels-Vivanta-Colombo.h526350.Hotel-Information) > > [Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weligama-Hotels-Weligama-Bay-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h19413442.Hotel-Information) > > [The Golden Crown Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-The-Golden-Crown-Hotel.h19397949.Hotel-Information) > > [Le Grand Galle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galle-Hotels-Le-Grand-Galle-By-Asia-Leisure.h24010679.Hotel-Information) > > [The Fortress Resort & Spa Galle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Koggala-Hotels-The-Fortress-Resort-Spa.h7821441.Hotel-Information) > > [Earl's Regency](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-Earls-Regency.h1523191.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Hambantota](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hambantota-Hotels-Shangri-La-Hambantota.h15083331.Hotel-Information) > > [Taj Bentota Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bentota-Hotels-Taj-Bentota-Resort-Spa.h581365.Hotel-Information) > > [go camping](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Go-Camping.h23256271.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Habarana-Hotels-Cinnamon-Lodge.h1854476.Hotel-Information) > > [The Golden Ridge Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nuwara-Eliya-Hotels-The-Golden-Ridge-Hotel.h29024680.Hotel-Information) > > [Ceylon Tea Trails - Relais and Chateaux - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Norwood-Hotels-Ceylon-Tea-Trails.h4045356.Hotel-Information) > > [98 Acres Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ella-Hotels-98-Acres-Resort-Spa.h15504051.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westbury Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nuwara-Eliya-Hotels-The-Westbury-Palace.h48402950.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sun House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galle-Hotels-The-Sun-House.h15677263.Hotel-Information) > > [Amaya Beach Pasikudah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Amaya-Beach-Pasikudah.h6780993.Hotel-Information) > > [Aliya Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Avudangawa-Hotels-Aliya-Resort-Spa.h9849536.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Bey Beruwala](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Beruwala-Hotels-Cinnamon-Bey-Beruwala.h8256226.Hotel-Information) > > [Habarana Village by Cinnamon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Habarana-Hotels-Habarana-Village-By-Cinnamon.h4031747.Hotel-Information) > > [Sun Siyam Pasikudah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Sun-Siyam-Pasikudah.h9272270.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Sigiriya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sigiriya-Hotels-Hotel-Sigiriya.h1609730.Hotel-Information) > > [Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tangalle-Hotels-Anantara-Peace-Haven-Tangalle-Resort.h11229814.Hotel-Information) > > [W15 Weligama](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weligama-Hotels-W15.h11560777.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Kosgoda Turtle Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kosgoda-Hotels-Sheraton-Kosgoda-Turtle-Beach-Resort.h48743974.Hotel-Information) > > [Maalu Maalu Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Maalu-Maalu-Resort-Spa.h6504916.Hotel-Information) ---
