The hotel is about 5 kilometers away from the Temple of the Tooth Relic. There are many restaurants and shopping malls downstairs of the hotel, which makes eating and accommodation convenient. On the morning of the second day of check-in, I started running from the hotel, circled along Kandy Lake and then returned to the hotel, which was exactly 10 kilometers.
The hotel location is good sigiriya lion rock is not much far from here. Many birds particularly peacocks are there in the property making it a good experience. The room and bathrooms were clean. Hand towels were not there in the room by default have to ask reception both day but upon asking they were delivered promptly. Breakfast spread was good enough. Just that the food on order is not good enough atleast for our taste, but in buffet it is good like many options are only available in buffet but not in ala carte.

Clean and sanitary, there is always background music playing in the room, you can adjust the volume or turn it off. Breakfast and dinner are ordered, the taste is good, and the service is good. You can see the Grand Hotel next door from the room window, and there are several teak elephants in the hotel lobby. In short, the price-performance ratio is good
The hotel was overbooked, so we were temporarily moved to another hotel. We returned to our original hotel the next morning, but neither hotel had hot water and the location was inconvenient, although the scenery was beautiful and the service was warm.
My stay at Mount Blue Kandy was a delight from start to finish. The panoramic views—of the lush hills, the Mahaweli River, and Kandy's valleys—are absolutely breathtaking, especially from the infinity pool and floor-to-ceiling windows in the room. The staff were consistently welcoming, attentive, and eager to please, making me feel genuinely valued. The room was spotless and well-appointed, and the breakfast was satisfying and varied. While the steep, narrow road up can be challenging and parking is limited, the sense of serenity and personalized service made it all worth it. Would happily stay again
Receptionist guy talks a lot!! Especially after a long day of traveling when you just want to check in and be quiet for a bit or relieve yourself in the bathroom. Take that into consideration. They didn’t clean the corridor and stairs till my last day. There were towels, bedsheets and just untidy path to my room. My rooms shower didn’t work so I had to shower across the hall in another room.Receptionist bathroom should always have to issue. The food is good!! The guys try!! The view since it’s uphill is the best!! Better than Kandy view…Close to temple !!
It was a delightful stay at the Forest View Villa. The food was delicious, especially the rolled pancakes for breakfast and the view amazing. We highly recommend this place.
As the train connection between Kandy and Ella is not yet (end of February 2026) working, due to the devastating cyclon in December 25, you might want to consider asking your host to drive you. It might be less stressful than changing busses 3 times.
The hotel is located in Kandy City, within walking distance of the Buddha Tooth Temple, Kandy Lake and the train station. Although the hotel is small, it is very elegant, quiet and well equipped. The two beautiful women in the front hall of the hotel smiled warmly and warmly. The manager was responsive and sent tea before leaving!
The photo was taken from the window of the room.
The location is excellent, the villa is in a fairly expensive area on the hill, the only minus - it is hard to get to walk, a steep hill. The staff is very friendly and polite, everything showed, told, the owner was in touch. At the end, they even carried out before the bus stop and showed a great view from the roof of the house. There were no questions to the room too, light and hot water were, the only one was a weak WiFi directly in the room, but it was a tiny thing

Very Good
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful location and I must say, it was a nice place with outstanding scenery. If you enjoy a mountainous vibe, this is definitely one of the best spots to visit. The food was quite good, and the garden was absolutely beautiful. I especially appreciated Mr. Yoga, who guided us through the gardens and provided excellent support. One thing to keep in mind is that there are no elevators (only stairs). We stayed on the third floor and while the view was lovely, we did encounter some mosquitoes inside the room.
The room was spacious with a balcony offering a fabulous view. The restaurant in the lobby and the bar both have a unique view. The staff were friendly, and the service was truly amazing.
The best location close to the temple and to the show. The staff was very nice and help us with everything. The room is beautiful that let us feel the vibe of Sri Lanka. Recommend.
Very good hotel and very nice service nice food , if u are willing to come don’t forget to get sweet snacks for this amazing dog ! Carla is a beautiful dog please be nice to her
GGuest UserThe Good
The standout feature of The Coffee Bungalow is undoubtedly its staff, particularly Adrian, who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable. Everyone we encountered was attentive and genuinely warm, making us feel well cared for. The food was another highlight—delicious and thoughtfully prepared. A particularly nice touch was when they packed us a complimentary to-go lunch for our train journey out of Kandy, which was a pleasant and unexpected gesture.
The Bad
The lack of air conditioning was a notable downside, especially given Kandy’s humidity. While the property has a charming colonial feel, the absence of a solid door between the bedroom and bathroom was an odd design choice. Although the toilet and shower do have louvered doors, privacy is somewhat compromised. Another issue was the challenging entry system—we found ourselves locked out one night, which was frustrating and inconvenient.
The Ugly
Unfortunately, the biggest drawback was the ant problem. While some level of bugs is to be expected in a tropical setting, the sheer number of ants, particularly in the bathroom but also in the bedroom, was hard to ignore. It definitely impacted our overall comfort.
Overall, The Coffee Bungalow has a lot of charm and some truly wonderful hospitality, but there are a few quirks and inconveniences that might not suit every traveler. If you’re prepared for a bit of rustic charm and can handle the lack of AC and privacy, the warm service and great food may make up for the downsides.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious, and the location was perfect for exploring the city. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.
Staff were wonderful, so helpful and took time to help me plan a full day as I only had one day in Kandy. They also gave me suggestions for my trip after Kandy also. The gym was fantastic to have and the pool. Kettle and fridge in the rooms. Located very near to the city Centre of Kandy. Really worth the reasonable price! Really personal touch…much appreciated! Would totally recommend!
Good view, nice breakfast, big room, come with heater and warmer, nice hospitality, we arrive at 1130pm so late, n they still need to help us checking in, hot water and tea provided
Villa Mount Royal is conveniently located, offering easy access to Nuwara Eliya's main attractions, such as Gregory Lake, Hakgala Botanical Garden, and the tea plantations. Despite its proximity to town, it feels wonderfully secluded, making it an ideal spot for relaxation. The rooms are spacious, tastefully decorated, and equipped with modern amenities. I particularly appreciated the large windows that showcased the surrounding natural beauty – waking up to misty hills was truly magical! The beds were comfortable, and the bathrooms were spotless, with a supply of hot water to beat the chilly weather. The villa has a cozy common area with a fireplace, perfect for unwinding after a day of sightseeing. The garden is well-maintained, providing a peaceful spot to enjoy your morning tea or coffee. Free Wi-Fi was available, though I recommend disconnecting for a while to soak in the tranquility of the setting. The on-site restaurant served delicious, freshly prepared meals. Their Sri Lankan breakfast was a highlight – hearty, flavorful, and made with love. The staff was accommodating to dietary preferences, ensuring a delightful culinary experience. Villa Mount Royal is a perfect choice for those seeking a blend of comfort and natural beauty in Nuwara Eliya. Whether you're a couple looking for a romantic getaway or a family in need of a peaceful retreat, this villa ticks all the boxes.
