We were booked into this hotel through a tour rep due to an over night visit to Kandy from our Kalutara base (just me and my husband). Arrived at 6pm and first impressions were good, the lobby was lovely BUT then we were shown to our room. It was a disgrace; exceptionally basic, but also very dirty, we then spoke... More

A decent hotel with modern facilities... Only walking distance from Kandy Lake.... Good for those looking for a budget hotel.. Some rooms has the view of the pool and paddy fields behind the hotel... Food is good...

This hotel was booked by our tour guide, Shan Travels, based on Trip Advisor ratings but we were extremely disappointed and only stayed one of the two nights we should have stayed. The rooms were small, dark and dingy. Carpets were filthy and it would be better in that climate to remove them, the bathroom was dirty and walls and... More

The Hotel Devon is a decent hotel up in the hills of Kandy. This hotel would have received a 4 out of 5 from us except the week of our stay there were lots of musty smells in the halls and especially in the elevator. The staff is very nice and accommodating. The food in the breakfast buffet was great... More

Hotel is in need of refurbishment. Good mattresses though. First night we were put in a room at the front of the hotel which suffers from a lot of noise from traffic (room 65). Second night we were put in a room next to the staircase and elevator (room 75): not good when you specifically asked for a quiet room.... More

After a long drive from Colombo, it was a welcome respite to get to a comfortable bed and stretch out! The restaurant had stayed open till late to accomodate us late arrivals-- good wholesome food and delightful desserts. The toilets need to be refurbished as the water stains are bad.

Dined at the restaurant. Buffet dinner for 1000 rupee.(with tax) food is incredibly tasty. Dessert absolutely yummy. The best chocolate mousse and cheese cake I' v had. Definitely worth the cost. Certainly will dine again

Room was big.Room was musty smelling which didn't help with my allergies. Opened up the balcony door for awhile to get some fresh air which didn't help when the mozzies came in. Figuring out how to temperature control the airconditioner was a feat in itself. Room was booked for three people but there was only one towel. Asked reception for... More
