Amazing views of the Kandy hills

Enjoyed our stay at NottingHill Country House.Old colonial house, shady upstairs verandah, peaceful garden but only 5 minutes away from the lake and 10 from downtown Kandy by tuk tuk. Nothing is too much trouble for Fonseca . He goes the extra mile to help and organised to have train tickets picked up for us. The rooms are spotlessly clean and comfortable, the shower is properly hot , the breakfast fruit lavish and the view from the garden and terrace is amazing. It will all be even better when they have made the road . For now it's a bumpy ride and there isn't a sign on/from the main road ( turn up left just before the sign for the Majestic hotel , follow road left and hotel isup a steep drive on the right) but Fonseca promises a roadside sign is coming in 2017. Recommended ,

Bien pour une étape à Kandy

Grande Maison un peu vieillissante au dessus du lac de Kandy. Le manager est très sympathique et fera en sorte que votre séjour se passe bien. Les chambres sont modestes mais bien équipées, quoique la TV ne fonctionnait pas. Bon wifi et petit déjeuner copieux.

Great hotel and service

This hotel is slightly out of Kandy, 10 minute Tuk Tuk from the station up a hill. This is what makes it so great, it’s quiet and when you have the fabulous breakfast on the patio the view is amazing. Fonseca and his assistant make this place. Small things like a SL mobile to call Fonseca or a really reliable Tuk Tuk when you’re out, one night Fonseca cooked us a curry meal to eat on the veranda and when we spent a couple of days chilling they bought us out a pot of tea and biscuits to eat on our rooms patio. Brilliant place and brilliant service.

Extensive breakfast and lovely view

Nice hotel up in the hills with a very steep road running to the hotel. Nice relaxed ambiance with jazz music playing each night. Very good rice curry served for dinner and excellent breakfast with a generous spread: fresh fruits, juice, roti, onions, omelette, buffalo curd with palm treacle, toast, marmalades and more! Fun to watch the monkeys in the trees and chat with the owner!

We(2 women travelling independently) had a lovely,quiet and relaxing time here. A beautiful setting above the bustle of Kandy but close enough to walk in as we did on several occasions. Fantastic courteous and friendly host for whom nothing was too much trouble. Would highly recommend.

Quiet hotel set in a nice garden

The hotel is quite difficult to reach due to the narrow and steep roads. However, the hotel is quite pleasant and the manager upgraded us to a larger room the second night.

Sadly, we only stayed one night as we were travelling across from Colombo to the East Coast. We had two rooms, one for the children and one for us. We ended up giving the better and bigger room to the children as they needed the space. They were upstairs and we were next to reception but there was no noise to bother us. The atmosphere was very relaxed and the children and us trotted between rooms in our pyjamas to say Goodnight! Felt very safe despite us being separated. Both rooms were very comfortable. Our host Fonseca was charming and welcoming. We arrived late without notice that we would need food, but a short 15 minute walk down the hill took us to a delightful cafe/restaurant - very basic but cheap and delicious. The hotel is a converted colonial house up on a hill with great views - breakfast was provided and was more than ample. There was a lot of fruit! Plates of different types for us to try and homemade eggs and bread. We had a driver, so I'm uncertain how easy it is to travel to and from the centre of Kandy from the hotel, but there were many tuk tuks available. All in all a very pleasant overnight visit.

Beautiful place, excellent staff

We had a wonderful stay here. Our room was spotlessly clean with lots of space for luggage. The hotel is in a beautiful colonial style building with amazing views. It is a short tuk tuk ride into the main part of town - I would say this is a benefit as the hotel is away from the hustle and bustle and feels very peaceful. Breakfast was big and delicious (omelette, fresh fruit and smoothie, toast, roti and curd) served on terrace with lovely views. The highlight of the hotel is the staff that work here. Fonseka and his colleague (who’s name I can’t remember, apologies) took such good care of us. They got up in the early hours to serve us breakfast before we had to take our train. They sorted out tours and an itinerary and booked train tickets for us. Nothing was too much for them and it was their care that made our stay memorable - thank you!

Wat een aangenaam verblijf!

Een wit Brits huisje in de bergen weg van de drukte van de stad. Wij hadden de suite met kingsize bed en bovendien met een prachtig uitzicht. De kamer was zeer netjes en ruim en maakt het verblijf nog aangenamer. De gastheer is zeer vriendelijk en niets is te veel, hij is voor ons geld gaan wisselen en zorgde voor tickets naar Ella die in het station waren uitverkocht. Het ontbijt was buiten met een prachtig zicht op de bergen, je krijgt trouwens heel wat srilankaanse lekkernijen voorgeschoteld.

Notting Hill Country House is the perfect place to stay if you want to be close to all of the attractions in Kandy, while away from all of the noise. The breakfasts were delicious, the room was clean and comfortable, and the manager and his staff were fantastic! He helped us get last minute seated train tickets to Ella, which we greatly appreciated! (tip: email host before your arrival to ensure tickets and less stress) I 100% recommend staying in Notting Hill Country House for your next stay in Kandy!

Une petite nuit très agréable

Nous n’avons passés qu’une nuit au Nothing Hill, mais celle ci fut très agréable. Le personnel est charmant et nous a aidé dans notre réservation de restaurant pour le soir + déplacement. La chambre était agréable et confortable bien que sans vue. Le seul reproche à faire serait celui du bruit lié aux nombreux chiens errants à Kandy. Même si l’hôtel n’est pas vraiment responsable une petite attention a ce problème est à apporter. La magie opère véritablement au réveil au moment du petit déjeuner (de roi), tous les petits désagréments éventuels sont alors totalement oubliés !
