Kandyan Hideout

Kandy, Sri Lanka

Kandyan Hideout is a small, eco-conscious guest house set in the hills of Kandy City, offering a quieter alternative to staying in the busiest part of town while keeping the sights within easy reach. The mood here is rustic and personal, with mountain views and a relaxed pace.

The property sits about 2 km from Kandy city centre, near the Galkaduwa bus stop, and around 1.5 miles from the Temple of the Tooth Relic, with Udawatta Kele Sanctuary also within easy reach. Royal Pond and Bogambara Stadium are close enough to walk to, and the surrounding hills offer tea trails and garden paths for those who want a short walk into nature. Kandy's market, museum and seaplane base are all reachable by local transport.

Rooms are offered in three categories — Standard, Superior and Deluxe — with meal plans ranging from Room Only to Bed and Breakfast, Half Board or Full Board, depending on how much you want taken care of. The in-house restaurant serves local and Asian dishes, including vegetarian options, in a cosy setting suited to families as well as couples.

  • Sun terrace, shared lounge and outdoor seating, plus a barbecue area
  • Concierge and tour or ticket desk for arranging excursions
  • Laundry service and special diet menus on request
  • Free Wi-Fi in public areas and complimentary private parking
  • Pets are welcome on the property

For travellers who'd rather base themselves in the hills than in the thick of the city, Kandyan Hideout offers a calm, personally-run stay with Kandy's cultural landmarks still just a short trip away.
