We had a wonderful stay as a family with little kid. Rooms were clean and housekeeping was available every day. Front desk staff was very helpful and attentive. Front desk made an effort to pack us small breakfast for the road as we checked out every early in the morning. It is a beautiful property in the center of the city and in front of the Tooth relic temple.

This is a historic hotel with a huge charm factor. My room was enormous with three balconies, and the staff was very welcoming and professional. I especially enjoyed tea and coffee in the outdoor private garden and pool area. The location was central and convenient. I always felt safe and welcomed.

This is more than hundred years old hotel and that is one of the reason I like this place. The hotel is well maintained. Old polished floors and wall fittings are still there. Yet my room had a nice modern bathroom. Everyone who made my stay comfortable were kind, friendly and ready to help. Thank you to all of them.

This is an old hotel from Brits period. It is decently modern with hot/cold water showers comfortable beds with good linen. And the staff that work there are the most kindest and helpful people. Lovated right by the Buddhist Holy site, TheTemple of Tooth and the ancient lake, it is also very close for shopping as well Unlike many hotels in Kandy built on the mountain sides that require uphill downhill walksor TukTuks, Queens Hotel is right in the city. Only thing not to do is walking in the evening around the lake since all the birds in the world come to roost on trees around the lake. If you want to do a walk, go to the opposite side of the lake where paths are way from tree line.

Perfect accommodation in Kandy

The staff is very friendly and professional, upgraded our room and allowed us to check in early. The room is so beautiful and high-end. Location is super convenient, short walk to the tooth temple, at lake with beautiful views, surrounded by shopping stores. There was loudly construction sounds around 2pm, that disturbed the sleep.

Convenient location. Just close to all main attraction and restaurants, such as the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic and Kandy lake. The hotel itself looks elegant and the maintenance is quite good. I especially enjoy the life that you can feel the living history of the hotel. It is also conformable to stay in the room. Good choice or stay here of you visit Kandy.
