Positives - friendly, helpful staff, reasonably priced and well located on the lake. Breakfast was pretty good. The young guy on reception was particularly helpful and polite
Negatives - we had booked a delux room but as hotel busy, we were given a very poor room despite having pre advised the hotel it was our anniversary. Spoke to manager and paid for an upgrade to best room the following day which was much better
In summary, an average hotel in need of modernising/ refurbishment but ok overall as long as you're not expecting too much
An amazing place that is conveniently located near Kandy Lake. The staff were very friendly and supportive which helped us a lot since we were with a 4yr old. The restaurant serves a nice variety of dishes that are reasonably priced and I would definitely recommend the Chicken Waffle.
Friendly and helpful staff at reception and especially in restaurant. Comfortable bed and spacious room. Good food in restaurant. Very close to lake and easy access to town especially temple and city museum. Slightly noisy due to busy road but even so we would still recommend.
I had a really nice stay at Viyana. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. It was in a good location by the lake and the evening meals I had there were tasty. Air con and water system were a bit noisy but other than that it was great. I would stay here again.
Good hotel overlooking the lake. The staff were great & really looked after us. We ate in the restaurant at night & the food & wine were excellent. Good breakfast, the only downside was the coffee which wasn't good. Overall we would stay here again.
Very comfortable bed in a room with stunning views over the lake in Kandy. Only downside was no lift, but staff were very helpful getting the bags up to the room. Will stay there again if I’m back in Kandy.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Viyana. We were there just one night but the staff are so friendly, chatty and attentive. We really loved the waiter. This is a great location for the Temple of the Tooth and for walking around the lake and also for going to the Culture Centre to see the Kandyan dancing.
The shower was hot and the air con was strong.
The staff are super friendly and helpful, especially Ryan on the front desk. The room we had was simple and clean, aircon worked great. The viewing area on the 4th floor is really nice.
Fantastic, friendly staff giving 1st class service. Excellent food. My only slight criticism is the air conditioning in the room was a bit noisy but overall a most enjoyable stay and I would definitely be very happy to stay again.

Liked: Staff & service, room comfort
Comfortable but basic accommodation with good view
This hotel was perfectly located in Kandy for a short visit and the staff were very friendly and helpful on the reception
The aircon didnt work in our room which meant it was very stuffy. The room was comfortable but could have a little TLC to make it better.
Great to be so close to the lake and easyto get tuktuks outside.
Nice location, walkable. Staff are nice and accommodating. Our room was clean and spacious, has a sitting area. Only drawback was room 101 is situated very close to the reception desk so it was noisy.
Also have a Peek a boo view of the lake. Continental breakfast was good. They kindly packed a take away box for us on the day we were leaving early for Sigiriya. Overall enjoyed our stay.
This hotel is well located for Kandy, in front of nice lake and short walk to Temple of the Tooth and town centre. We were greeted with a free lunch on arrival since they were promoting the place and we ate very well; we had a second lunch there and that was very good too. Place was overall comfy but rooms seem to have thin walls since it felt quite noisy. But all good overall.

thank you !
Right across from Lake Kandy. Traffic is heavy outside at times. You can walk to the temple, and most any place in town. Staff is very helpful & anxious to serve
Lovely hotel, great food, a good mix of western and Sri Lankan. I caved and got pasta one night and it was fantastic. They had an issue with the hot water on the roof and had to go through my room to fix it, but set me up and made me comfortable in another room for a few hours. It was no problem and I definitely feel like they handled it well.
The top floor room is amazing. Huge and beautiful view. I'd love to add photos, but the upload tool isn't working on the app.

The staff are very eager to help. They were excellent. However, the property is near a school and the students practiced their marching band rehearsal at 6am. Otherwise, it's a decent place to stay for a night. Be mindful that it's only stairs -- no elevators.

The hotel is rated 4star but it is beat down and need renovations. The room I had haf window opened up neighbour front and so I didn’t use it. So it was a dark room. However the location is very nice with a good lake view.
Serious improvement needed re cleanliness. Staff in general were very friendly and manager was responsive to the feedback we gave re hygiene, but lots of areas just generally grotty and finger prints all over doors, switches, etc. Attention to detail lacking, no towels (had to ask multiple times for them), no bathmat, no mattress protector, sheets worn. The bathroom was the best part of our room was seemed to have been recently renovated.
