Sevana City Hotel Kandy

Great hotel close to downtown Kandy. Breakfast was good but a few more options would have been nice.Overall we really enjoyed our stay here and would return.

Lovely stay in this boutique hotel. Clean facilities and beautiful rooftop /pool views. The food was delicious. And the breakfast was worth it! Very friendly staff.

given the ratings of this hotel I definitely had higher expectations. first, the hotel location leaves a lot to be desired - it is on a super busy and not particularly safe to walk around street. although the inside of the hotel is ok and the room was relatively comfortable, the dinner options were extraordinarily limited, no alcohol, and overpriced.

On first impression (arriving), the outside doesnt seem appealing. Also the entry (lobby area) is a bit unusual. There is a kitchen and sitting area and the whole section is a little dark, basic and not a very welcoming feel. We booked a deluxe room and was hoping the rooms were better than the initial impression of the hotel. In fact it was a nice surprise of how modern and high quality the room was. There is a bit of a musty/damp smell, when first get into the room. Otherwise the room was spacious, modern furnishings and the bathroom (large) was updated and good quality. Really nice steam shower also. Pool area has hardly any seating at all. Enough for maybe 3 or 4 people. Staff very friendly and helpful throughout the stay. I gave a 3 out of 5 review because of the slight musty smell in the room, the lobby area and also the fact that the restraunt so so expensive. I was shocked to see that for dinner, the kotthu was 1200LKR! ($7). This to me is not acceptable at this class/level of hotel. Max you pay for this in a local place, is 400LKR. Breakfast also is $5. Dont understand these prices, when its not a fancy hotel. Wifi was very good the whole time we were there, which was nice to have. I'd suggest booking a better room, as the deluxe seemed much nicer than some of the other rooms that I saw (which i walked past and door was open). Not a bad choice for the price, but it's not the most appealing to the eye.

Lovely breakfast with organic eggsand homemade jam
