Jetwing Kandy Gallery, hotel in Kandy

Set in Kandy, 14 km from Bogambara Stadium, Jetwing Kandy Gallery offers accommodation with free bikes, free private parking, an outdoor swimming pool and a garden.

Pleasant enough two night stay here this week but not without fault although I am being picky. Property is pretty remote and not easy to find but when you arrive it’s very nice. Rooms are excellent and the pool area etc is nice. We had breakfast twice in the hotel restaurant as well as an evening meal and the food and drink quality were very good. The service was slow for breakfast at times and we had a very odd moment at dinner where an inexperienced member of staff removed a full drink from our table without explanation. When we asked what was going on a more senior staff member came over and apologised and returned the drink saying the young lady who removed it was a trainee and had got confused. I also had an incident with a faulty sun lounger that resulted in me sustaining a painful foot injury. The staff were very caring immediately after the incident and applied ice to my foot etc. which was kind and caring. Overall, if you are staying in Kandy, I would recommend it.

Hotel staff have all been incredible, the room was clean and we were given a free upgrade. The pool is clean and has a lovely view and there are shared balconies where you can see sunrise and sunset. The food at the restaurant was delicious with large portions and lots of vegetarian options. We cant say enough good things about the staff, they are incredibly friendly and have been a highlight of the trip going above and beyond to ensure our stay was excellent. We can't thank them enough!

The Change Hotel, hotel in Kandy

Offering a bar and garden view, The Change Hotel is located in Kandy, 4 km from Kandy Royal Botanic Gardens and 4.3 km from Ceylon Tea Museum.

It's a very very charming boutique hotel. It has an Italian design. The manager speaks good English and knows what hospitality is. He organised everything for us, was genuine interested and made us feel very welcome. The breakfast is also good. And it's easy in this hotel to also meet other travellers (with families). The views from the hotel are stunning, it's a little bit out of the city center but therefore also nice and quiet.

Santani Wellness Kandy, hotel in Kandy

Santani Wellness Kandy, having opened in 2016 has received a number of international accolades highlighting the level of service, the cuisine and the spa.

Our stay was absolutely incredible. The setting in Sri Lanka’s lush “foliage” is breathtaking, and the way the architecture blends into the landscape is not only beautiful but simply genius. We felt an overwhelming sense of peace from the moment we arrived. The Ayurvedic treatments and wellness programs were life-changing, and the team are so positive and treated us with so much kindness and thoughtfulness. The food was beyond amazing—every meal was filled with such flavour. Santani gave us everything we needed to truly sought to reconnect and release going into the new year. It’s a place that feels magical, and we can’t wait to come back.

All hotels with pools in Kandy
Looking for a hotel with pools?
‘Does it have a pool?’ is arguably one of the most common questions when booking a stay in any location. These hotels offer a great way to keep active during your holiday without having to hit the gym. Indoor pools allow you to practice your backstroke come rain or shine, whereas outdoor options allow you to relax on a sun lounger after swimming a few lengths.

    The Resort is even better than the pictures! We checked in late in the evening and had a tasty Sri Lankan dinner. The room was spacious, well furnished and had a small clean balcony. The view of the tea gardens from the balcony were beautiful. They have a large swimming pool, gym and a hot tub at the terrace area which is open 24/7. Food was good, esp. the Sri Lankan dishes. The staff was really sweet and welcoming.
