Ceylon Ayu Resort Kandy

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.

Large clean room good enough for a family of 4.

There is a stark difference between the view claimed and actuals. If looking into the adjacent buildings garden is garden view, then they have it. It is basically a lodge with the name resort. Breakfast is plated and served, they are not very keen on variety if occupancy drops. Will only provide a liter of water per night, for anything above that one has to pay extra. Will I like to repeat the property if I come back to Sri Lanka, No, far better value for money options are available.

Great pool area at the top of the hotel Large room - very comfortable Good breakfast and lunch

10min+ to the centre of Kandy - it was challenging to navigate Tuktuk drivers back to the hotel We had to ask on 3 separate occasions to organise a taxi for our onward travel to the airport - they finally did it the third time and everything was fine. We weren’t sure why the first 2 requests were ignored but it was slightly stressful having to organise this when it should have been a straightforward request and we had an early international flight to catch.

Large room, staff is friendly and trying to help but have limited possibilities

Dirty swimming pool (insects everywhere, pump not used), a lift that broke down when we were in there, ants in the bathroom, very slippery floor (dangerous with kids), very simple breakfast. You don't get a feeling you are in a resort/hotel here.
