Find Your Kandy Hotels

There is a balcony, you can see monkeys early

Hotel Suisse carries a colonial charm that takes you back in time. The food is good, offering a fair range of choices. However, the dining experience was slightly marred by some worn napkins. The air conditioning in our room was a bit loud, but it didn't keep us from having a comfortable stay. I might look into other hotels in the area next time to experience something different.

getting to the hotel is a small chore, but you are rewarded with a decent view. The hotel, isn't really a hotel. So i found it a little hard to find. Because it's a house that's been converted. The rooms are a decent size, well decorated and offer great views of Kandy. The staff are very friendly, welcoming and helpful. It feels very chilled when sit out on your own private terrace. I'm not entirely sure that the hotel is worth it's high price though. hmmm, well given the price of the room. you only get one towel, what's that about! But the thing that stung and led me to leave a low mark was the food. You're kind of a captive audience and the hotel know it, given it's location up in the hills. The hotel offered a set dinner menu for LKR6000 ($20) per person. The usual price of a decent sized dinner is about LKR2000 per person. So how was dinner you ask.. well, and when I tell you, I'm not joking in the slightest when i tell you what I was served. so the d'oeuvres - A slice of white bread cut into the shape of a heart, on top of this romantically shaped bread. Three mini Ritz crackers (seriously) with cream cheese on top. Then a small salad in a cocktail glass which was ok. followed by Heinz tomato soup. followed by some oven made, veggie burgers, with some creamy veg, which was clearly from a packet. I was actually laughing when they were serving me these dishes, making it out to be something really posh. So please hotel, bear in mind that you would have got a much higher score if you hadn't charged me and the other guests that were staying there $20 for something that was clearly worth $2. Ritz crackers! haha are you seriously joking with that.

One of Queen's advantages: excellent location. Across the road is Kandy Lake and Temple of the Tooth. Go out and pass the signal light on the right hand side is the big supermarket. The second advantage: the historical background, everyone who studies this hotel must know it, so there is no need to say more. In addition, this 100-year-old elevator can still be used now, which can be regarded as an eye-opening experience for children. The third advantage: the price is really cheap. Disadvantages: The room is too old, from furniture to bathroom. It does not meet the needs of modern use. The room is on the small side. Breakfast is average. From personal experience, next time I will definitely not live in the queen.

Absolutely fantastic hotel, environment and staff. The attention to detail here is second to none, linking everything flawlessly. We found the staff uniform’s colours and design linked to the circles on the reception area ceiling and to the Kandy related decorations and statues, which were all very beautiful. Our room was really comfortable and all of our meals were great. Staff here all have a great sense of calm, which so fits the whole place. The general manager Dilip was very knowledgable about the birds we saw from the pool and spent some time helping us to put names to them. We both loved this hotel from the moment we walked in and had the traditional musical welcome. A hidden gem!
