Ceylon Ayu Resort Kandy

Close proximity to town

Nil

Huge room with a kitchen just a short distance from the centre of Kandy so it was nice and quiet. The staff were really friendly and the breakfast was delicious. They have a beautiful rooftop infinity pool with views over the trees.

Nothing.

Staff were friendly. Rooms were big with kitchens but a bit dark. Food was fine but we had to order in advance for anything other than breakfast.. Good views from rooftop.

It is definitely not a resort. The layout is odd - reception difficult to find on first floor, front garden under used as right be the road and nothing else on ground floor bar a car park - created a bad first impression - if we hadn’t booked in advance we might have moved elsewhere. Only shared space upstairs on roof where there is a small pool, five sunbeds without cushions and a mouldy sun umbrella. Not a very appealing place to relax. There were hardly any hooks in the room for drying towels etc We felt the hotel had potential - it would take relatively little money to spruce it up but would make a big difference- particularly the roof top area. Nothing really walkable from the hotel, including restaurants (except one hotel). We had to chase up the complimentary massage (which is a 10 min walk away). No real opportunity to do yoga there.

Spacious, with a large sitting area and separate kitchen/dining area and a large fridge. Staff were great - friendly, obliging, and professional. Food was delicious. Nice roof top pool. Views from the roof. Good lift. Very reasonable tariff.

Kitchen could have had a few more utensils - if you wanted to cook.
