스리랑카에서 만난 인생 호텔
스리랑카에 가서 단 한 곳의 호텔에만 묵을 수 있다면, 그곳은 단연 헤리턴스 칸달라마일 거예요.
호텔 곳곳에서 온순하고 귀여운 원숭이들을 볼 수 있었고, 심지어 야생 코끼리들이 아래층 호숫가에서 물을 마시는 모습도 볼 수 있었어요. 저는 놀랍게도 이곳에서 야생 코뿔새를 보았습니다. 그 두 마리의 코뿔새가 제 눈앞에 있었고, 커다란 부리를 가지고 자유롭게 날아다녔죠. 그 순간 소름이 돋았어요. 야생 환경에서 코뿔새를 실제로 본 것은 처음이었거든요. 이 모든 것이 호텔이 자연과 얼마나 잘 어우러져 있는지를 잘 보여줍니다.
제가 생각하는 호텔의 가장 감동적인 두 순간이 있습니다. 하나는 밤이 찾아왔을 때, 한 현지 노 음악가가 호텔 모닥불 옆에서 피리를 연주하던 순간입니다. 그 연주자가 음악을 연주하기 시작했을 때, 달빛은 이미 칸달라마 호수 위에 머물러 있었고, 코뿔새들도 막 잠이 들었죠. 그 순간 저는 제가 휴가 중이라는 사실조차 잊은 듯했습니다.
또 다른 순간은 아침에 제가 일어나 커튼을 걷었을 때였습니다. 갑자기 두 마리의 원숭이가 제 발코니로 뛰어들어왔어요. 스리랑카 원숭이들은 매우 온순하고 심지어 수줍음이 많습니다. 발코니에서 이리저리 뛰어다니는 그들을 보면서, 그 순간이 정말 특별하고 아름답다고 느꼈습니다.
We loved this hotel to the point we would return to Kandy to stay here again! The staff were all friendly, helpful and professional, the hotel and rooms were all clean and well maintained and the food at both dinner and breakfast was delicous. Overall we loved out stay here and wish we could have stayed longer.
*we also bought some jewelry from the shop in the hotel which was good too.
Perfect view! It is better to have 3+ floor room because of wires. Monkeys thieved my shorts from balcony so don’t leave the clothes. The hotel is on the mount so you should use tuc-tuc anytime if you have no bike. Good prices in the roof top bar but the glass was dirty and it is not ok for perfect photos.
Stuff is friendly
Overall stay in radisson kandy was pretty pleasant and comfortable. Room was very clean and presentable. Had breakfast and dinner at the hotel and the dining hall was spacious and the food was tasty with a variety of dishes. Roof top restaurants have a good variety of dishes with swimming pool and very view of skyline with visible kandy lake, buddha temples, mountains etc. Staff was very pleasant and ready to help for any requirements. Only was the availability of drinking water. Supplied only 2 bottles of 500 ml each and water cooler/ dispenser not available and guest had to buy additional water bottles at very high cost (compared to market rate. Hotel management can have a look at an issue of availability of drinking water. Otherwise the overall hotel stay was pleasant/ satisfying.
아름다운 경치와 넓은 객실을 갖춘 정원 스타일의 호텔입니다. 호텔에 도착하면 환영 행사도 있습니다. 호텔에 숙박하는 사람이 많지 않습니다. 가장 웃긴 것은 로비에서 방까지 병차가 길을 부드럽게 통과하지 못한다는 것입니다. 그 당시 디자인은 사려깊지 않았습니다. 전반적인 느낌은이 호텔이 지역에서 비교적 고급 호텔이며 모든면에서 좋지만 팁을 조금 더주는 것을 잊지 마십시오. 그렇지 않으면 얼굴을 흔들고 보여줄 수 있습니다.
호튼 평원에 가기 전 환승 숙소로 하루 묵었는데, 정말 좋은 게스트하우스였어요. 밤 7시 넘어서 도착해서 짐 풀고 저녁 먹으러 나갔는데, 걸어서 15분 거리라 걸어가려 했거든요. 그런데 길이 너무 좁고 차가 많아서 돌아왔어요. 사장님인 하치(Haaci) 씨가 그걸 보고 왜 안 가냐고 물어보길래 위험해서 못 간다고 했더니, 그럼 자기가 태워다 주겠다고 하더라고요. 자기 차로 식당까지 데려다주고, 식당에 도착해서는 다 먹고 나면 데리러 와줄지 먼저 물어봐주는데 정말 감동적이었어요. 새벽 5시에 호튼 평원으로 출발할 때는 미리 싸줄 아침 식사까지 챙겨줬어요.
게스트하우스 건물 인테리어는 새것은 아니었지만 깨끗했고, 무엇보다 사장님이 정말 적극적으로 도와주고 저희 필요를 먼저 알아봐 줬어요. 이번 스리랑카 여행에서 비싼 5성급 호텔도 예약했고 저렴한 게스트하우스도 예약했지만, 가장 기억에 남는 건 하치 씨가 베풀어준 진심 어린 따뜻한 도움이었어요. 이건 5성급 호텔에서는 느낄 수 없는 경험이죠. 사장님 영어도 아주 유창해서 소통도 원활했고요. 스리랑카에서 가장 추운 지역이라고 했는데, 저희 마음은 정말 따뜻해졌어요. 게스트하우스가 앞으로 더욱 번창하길 바라고, 나중에 친구들이 스리랑카에 오면 꼭 추천할 거예요.

CcnphoebeAn exceptional stay at a lovely hotel. Great pool, fantastic views and really good dinner buffet which was fairly priced! It is quite out of the way - 20 minutes out of town and not walkable - but this is necessary for some unrivalled views, the best in Kandy!
리리뷰어A Hidden Gem – Perfect Honeymoon or Quiet Getaway
This place is truly a hidden gem. It was the perfect spot for a honeymoon couple or anyone looking for a peaceful, quiet getaway.
Travel tip: From Colombo, you can catch a direct bus to Nuwalapitiya. We didn’t know this and went via Kandy, which made the journey longer than necessary. If we had known, we would have taken the direct bus—it’s much easier.
Ps:The bus ride is phenomenal—very beautiful views along the way and very cheap.
The property is located on a hill and is naturally beautiful, surrounded by trees and birds whose songs make the atmosphere even more serene. It does get a bit cold at night, but it was the perfect kind of chilly—cozy and refreshing.
Our room had an amazing view, making it even more special. The stay itself was perfect for our honeymoon: very cozy, comfortable, and clean.
The staff were amazing, especially one gentleman at the restaurant (I didn’t catch his name, but I want to mention him). He went above and beyond to help us and was incredibly sweet and warm-hearted—it really made our stay special.
A small note: we noticed the pool looked a bit dirty, which some other reviews also mentioned. However, it was clarified in the pool area that they use natural spring water without chemicals, so this is expected and actually a great eco-friendly approach. But This hotel needs some love because this is a very nice place.
Another small note: there were some insects, like cockroaches, but that’s expected when staying on a hill in the middle of nature surrounded by trees.
Overall, this was a truly wonderful experience and a perfect spot to relax, unwind, and enjoy nature. Highly recommended!!
MMtngSeerock The King’s Domain offers an impressive stay with super spacious rooms, a beautiful outdoor environment, and excellent service. The only downside—though not the hotel’s fault—is the occasional wild peacock screaming at night, which might disrupt light sleepers. Otherwise, a fantastic getaway for nature lovers.
리리뷰어The owners and employees at this hotel are so, so lovely.
Unfortunately their hotel is not. I almost feel catfished as many of the photos highlighted the bar and pool party atmosphere. This was not the case - the pool was a decent size but in the shade and I actually didn’t see anyone in it. The pool party drinking shots I highly suspect were perhaps not a genuine source.
The same goes for the bar which is massive and attended to by several lovely young, bored gentlemen as both times I popped up (once for dinner) I was the only patron. Again no party atmosphere or even people - which is a shame as it is a big venue.
Fortunately next door was another venue for some decent cocktails and music which saved the boredom somewhat.
The bedroom was a decent size with a small fridge (but didn’t work), the bathroom was small, felt dirty, no hand soap or soap for the shower (apart from leftover previous occupants - and that was gross).
The pressure was poor making showering difficult and there was plaster on the floor from some damage - not cleaned up.
The bed was massive and comfortable with air conditioning and a fan so sleep was good.
Finally, and to repeat, the staff were lovely. Very hospitable and the location is about a ten minute walk to the Sacred Tooth Temple and Kandy Lake. So great location.
Would I stay there again - no. Would I pop in to say hello to the owners and next door for a cocktails - possibly!
리리뷰어Room is spacious, have all amenities and toiletries (just missing the slippers). It have heater instead of air conditioner as there is mostly cold here. Centralized control system is a plus. Washroom is comparatively much smaller and just the basic size.
Cons: The main thing was the management which was poor and mostly looked after only locals as we came to know by our driver. At check in the room key didn't worked 3 time and they have to call some technical guy to resolve the issue which was actually the issue in room door, still they gave us the same room. When we go to food court for breakfast in morning, it was only 4 set items only which also they decide they want to give or not. For every request it was a no even when we are willing to pay extra for the same. For the meal we had we asked extra sambhar they deny they can't give. We asked for sandwich or any breads which was also unavailable. But after sometime, they give sandwich to some other persons. When we confronted them, they told it is in different meal, we asked to give only sandwich they outright denied, when we said give meal they say come after 11. After complaining and telling at the reception his response was mostly defending and at last only told you can discuss with senior manager. It was our time to leave the city as per our itinerary so we left the place as it is.

LLisa_AНомер в отеле разочаровал.
У нас был забронирован номер с одной двуспальной кроватью и одной односпальной. В итоге в номере было три кровати - две односпальных сдвинуты в одну. Это неудобно. При этом одеял было всего два. Односпальных. На детской кровати не было одеяла, только простыня. И когда мы попросили еще одеяло, так его и не дождались.
Кондиционер в номере очень шумный, захлебывающийся. Полночи будил своими хрипами. И его никак не отключить с пульта. Где находится его розетка - мы обнаружили только под утро. Номер очень старый. В ванной стоит подставка под щетки плетеная, покрытая плесенью, к ней даже прикасаться страшно, не то что щетки складывать.
На завтрак пришло много народу и чтобы взять чашечку доя кофе - приходилось стоять в очереди и ждать.
Отель заявлен, как 5 звезд премиум отель, но этих 5 звезд я не увидела.
Очень понравилась территория отеля, очень красивое и живописное место. Но возвращаться сюда мне бы не хотелось.
