"Heritance Kandalama is set in a beautiful location and amazing lake views. Great hotel
Interiors and views. Unfortunately besides the panoramic view from our room, the actual room itself was lacklustre to say the least. Bathroom is outdated with no amenities. Room furniture seems like a hodgepodge of items put together. Mattress and pillows had a smell, a few stains and felt old. Called the front desk/operator on a Wednesday night at 10:30pm and no one answered the phone for 25 mins. We had checked in at 930pm and promised they would deliver our extra rollaway bed and it took 1 hour to get it. Buffett dinner and breakfast spread has way too many options just to make it look full but the quality of the food was 3/10. Overall 2/5"
"It was the most relaxing stay we have had in Sri Lanka. It felt as if I was in Africa, close to Elephants and peacocks. We saw a mini dear and afternoons surrounded by butterflies and dragonflies. A big thank you to Thenuka."
"A beautiful resort situated on lake Dumbulla. Very peaceful and quiet with wildlife all around. The swimming pools were exceptional, clean and perfect temperature for the heat and humidity - we could stay in there all day!
All the staff are super helpful, friendly and go above and beyond in anything that was asked.
Being close to the Rock Fortress was great to be able to get there early before sunrise. Highly recommend staying here."
"Very attentive staff, and a clean, serene hotel. Good food options on site, and easy to get to busier locations. Would highly recommend the elephant safari. Massage was great too! Nice, big gym which was always empty - has a bench and most machines you need for a good workout."
"Breakfast was mediocre. Building needs more maintenance. Its a nice property and i am a former employee of JK which is the parent company of this hotel and it was wonderful. Not any more. "
