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!

Amazing location. Serviceminded staff. 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 ### 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.

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 ### 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 #### 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 ### 8/10 Good #### Victoria 12 Feb 2026 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities It was a pleasant stay at The Queens Hotel. We received a warm welcome on arrival. The position is perfect for visiting the Temple, overlooking the lake in Kandy but the traffic noise is incredible. Yes you are right in the heart of the city so not unexpected but trying to sleep is not easy. Room was clean and adequate and probably once was quite something but now old fashioned and very basic. There are no frills, no luxury and although our bathroom had a bath it was impossible to use it as took too long to fill it! Buffet breakfast was ok, basic and our least favourite in Sri Lanka - perhaps we have been spoilt everywhere else. In summary one night was enough for us. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/61492a88-802c-4d24-8f88-7e46fafa59a4-1770861126930.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5c7e4d28-18a6-4178-bac9-b093891534b6-1770861127404.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8cb30358-5491-4e3e-a8c4-a234a943d971-1770861128090.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Victoria Stayed 1 night in Feb 2026 ### 8/10 Good #### Zein 25 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Our stay was wonderful, we were lucky enough to have one of the newly renovated rooms at the hotel.

The room is so beautiful and high-end. Location is super convenient, short walk to the tooth temple, at lake with beautiful views, surrounded by shopping stores. There was loudly construction sounds around 2pm, that disturbed the sleep. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/498d61c2-6da3-47ad-ad60-ee12188c690f-1754870571383.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0dd67abb-697c-4192-a419-05e604b1172d-1754870573382.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e97aef2b-8264-4320-a573-7047dd276189-1754870572009.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/14bd0904-f2da-4a24-8865-8480adad2fb9-1754870576510.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### mallory 13 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good property in a very convenient and safe location.

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 #### 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.
