Jetwing Kandy Gallery

The hotel is fairly new it seems and structurally it is lovely. The rooms are modern and large - all have views of the lagoon. Rare in Sri Lanka you have an in room Illy coffee machine which was very welcome. The spa was ok, reasonably priced and I had a good Balinese massage. There is only one restaurant on site and it was full of families with noisy kids unfortunately. It seems popular at weekends for family groups. The strangest thing is there is no bar as such, when we asked it was the (in effect) counter in the restaurant that was the bar (see the photo), so no where to lounge and drink except take one of 4 bar stools and sit among diners. The hotel really should offer a drinks service in the lobby area which over looks the lake and pool. The pool is lovely but again at weekends seems dominated by kids. The hotel is a long way from Kandy so you will need a driver or car or taxi. There’s no where of interest within walking distance. They offer a butler service but I have no idea why you would need to use it! There is no gym.

Best hotel stay we had in Sri Lanka. Simple architecture and tastefully designed rooms amongst beautiful surroundings. Thoughtful service and good food. Set meal is nod towards sustainability and preventing food wastage unlike old school buffet.

Located a few minutes from Kandy, this beautiful place provided a really peaceful haven away from the bustling city. A little slice of luxury with the warmest of welcomes and wonderful service throughout our stay. A delightful pool, well manicured lawns and a lovely view overlooking the Mahaweli River. Our bedroom was fantastic and spacious - our 12 year old enjoyed her own double bed - with a lovely view from our patio area. Our dinners were particularly memorable...only wish we could have stayed longer than the 2 nights that we spent there.

This was my favourite hotel in Sri Lanka. The sunrise and sunsets by the river were sensational. The gardens are immaculately groomed and the pool area is bliss. On top of that the food at the restaurant was delicious and fresh and the staff (especially Sakuna) were very friendly and helpful. The room was gorgeous and had a coffee machine with illy coffee when even the Shangri-La in Colombo had only instant Nescafé. TV also had Netflix which was also rare in Srilanka. Would love to go again!

A restful stay. The welcome went with a ritual. Harsha made us feel at home very quickly. The hotel looks very nice with a gallery of artwork. Breakfast and dinner were delicious. We were always served by a team of very young people. During our free afternoon, we lazed around the beautiful pool.

This was my best stay i would say. I have been to several hotels and resorts but jetwing kandy was outstanding. Unique Food cousins made the stay special as well. And the view from the room balcony and the location is so peaceful 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽❤️❤️❤️
