Situated near Kandy Museum and Sri Dalada Maligawa, Terrace Kandy is in Kandy and features free private parking and a restaurant. There is a private entrance at the guest house for the convenience of those who stay. The property is 2.6 km from Bogambara Stadium, and within less than 1 km of the city centre. WOW. We booked last minute for just one night, we were lucky to find the Terrace, a small, simple and incredibly peaceful place. The room was clean and spacious, overlooking the valley, good breakfast. Host Ashan is incredibly kind and helpful. Location is a 9 min tuktuk ride from the heart of Kandy (the hotel has one) which is absolutely worth it to enjoy the view and peaceful stay at Terrace Kandy. Thanks again Ashan and everyone who took care of us.

Some units in the guest house have private entrance and are fitted with desk and wardrobe. Some of the units have a cable flat-screen TV, a fully equipped kitchen with a microwave, and a private bathroom with a bidet and a hair dryer. I suggest everyone to stay here once if you are planning to stay in Kandi.... The owner is so kind that I can't explain. You can explore the entire Kandy under the guide of this owner with a minimum budget.

This recently renovated guest house is located 2.6 km from Bogambara Stadium and 2.8 km from Sri Dalada Maligawa. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a terrace. I loved my stay in this spacious, spotlessly clean room - complete with a relaxing bathtub and stunning view - all at a very reasonable price. The host was exceptionally kind, responsive, and always ready to help.

With a private bathroom fitted with a shower and free toiletries, units at the guest house also boast free WiFi, while certain rooms are fitted with a balcony. At the guest house, every unit comes with bed linen and towels. We had an amazing stay at Kandy Tree Tops. The owner UPUL is super nice , he has a great family , his oldest daughter is PHD of Harvard University . Hhis young daughter is won a lot swimming races , he showed us round his cozy home and shared with us some nice photos and stories of his family . All beyond our expectations, food was fresh and tasty and we enjoyed eating our breakfast on the balcony with a beautiful view. It’s well located - easily commutable to the main attractions, but far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the city to have a peaceful nights sleep. It is one of our most favourite places we have stayed at during our trip to Sri Lanka. Would highly recommend.
