    “Nice Hotel”

    As a traveler visiting Sri Lanka for the first time, my stay at Radisson Hotel, Kandy was a wonderful introduction to the country’s hospitality. The room was modern, well furnished, and very comfortable, with all amenities in perfect working condition, which made the stay easy and enjoyable. The view from the hotel was absolutely stunning, overlooking Kandy Lake and the surrounding hills. It was a pleasure to relax and take in the scenery after a day of exploring. The staff were exceptionally warm and friendly, always welcoming and helpful, which really enhanced my first experience in Sri Lanka. Breakfast was another highlight, offering a wide variety of delicious options to suit different tastes. I especially liked having the choice to sit either indoors or outdoors, depending on the mood and weather. The hotel’s location is also ideal for first-time visitors, as it is close to many major local attractions, making it very convenient for sightseeing around Kandy. Overall, Radisson Hotel @ Kandy provided comfort, great service, and a memorable stay, and I would happily recommend it to anyone visiting Sri Lanka for the first time.

    “Exceptional”

    Radisson Hotel is located just 300 meters from the Kandy Lake round road, making it a very convenient spot. The reception area is beautifully decorated, and I really liked the calm and welcoming vibe. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with all the necessary amenities. I stayed at the lake end, and while I could see a part of the lake, the view was affected by nearby under-construction buildings, which took away from the overall atmosphere. The rooftop features a small swimming pool and a bar, great for relaxing in the evening. The restaurant on the ground floor offers a good buffet with a nice mix of Western, Sri Lankan, and Indian dishes. The staff at Radisson Hotel provided excellent customer service. They were very supportive, polite, and always ready to help, which made the stay even more pleasant. A few areas could be improved, such as cleaning the carpets in the corridor. Also, when traveling into Kandy town, it’s better to use Uber or PickMe rather than hailing a random tuk-tuk. Overall, it was a great stay with comfortable rooms, good food, and outstanding service.

    “Hilltop Hotel, Close to the Kandy Lake ”

    The Radisson is a neat hotel with very friendly staff and nicely located. However the walk to the Kandy Culture Centre and the Tooth Temple is 30 minutes as the hotel is directly across the lake from these attractions. The rooms are neat and clean, with basic toiletries, but no balcony so it appears small. We were there for 2 nights so it was adequate. However, mention must be made of the excellent staff, especially at the restaurant where Kavisha made sure that we got vegetarian options for out a la carte dinner, despite a rather limited menu. Breakfast was super, with a wide choice and delicious options.

    “Wonderful Place to Stay in Kandy”

    A nice and clean hotel for those on a visit to Kandy. The hotel is some years old, but is being maintained well and all amenities look tip top. Comfy beds and all in room facilities are available, giving a modern vibe. The pool can get a little crowded when many people are there. An open air rooftop bar is available to chill after a swim or to relax after dinner. Meals were well prepared and a scrumptious dinner and breakfast buffet was on offer during our stay. The staff were very courteous and helpful. Due to our last minute reservation, they still hadn't been able to prepare the extra bed we requested and even offered us an additional room free of charge. Hotel is located centrally and close to many attractions in the city.
