Room was clean but constant sound of running water meant it sounded like heavy rain all night. Staff lovely and accommodating. Very central to local attractions. Would stay again but in a different room. Our friend travelling same dates/booking had a spacious room with view so I guess we were unlucky.

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

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
We had booked two rooms, one was a bit better than the other, however the rooms were dirty, you could tell the sheets were changed and the table was wiped, but the overall cleanliness wasn't good at all. Air-conditioning wasn't working great. Staff were friendly and supportive, when asked for something. We also got a rude intereption during the night from a random person, who knocked multiple times on the door at 4am. If there was a sign on reception to say how to contact manager, we wouldn't have been woken up as our room was right behind reception and the person was looking for the manager. The hotel was over all noicy and you can hear people andovement.

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.

Incredibly friendly and helpful staff

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.

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.

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.

Comfortable hotel in a great location on the lake

This hotel was really comfortable. The beds and pillows are amazing. We had a side view of the lake but our friends had a big balcony and panoramic view of the lake. Service was really friendly and the location is so convenient- one of the best in town. Highly recommend and would go back

A Sri Lankan Gem!

This hotel was amazing! Service and accommodations felt 5-star, and the price was the best part. The suite I stayed in had more space than my apartment with a jacuzzi overlooking the lake with an all glass view. I will definitely stay here when I return to Sri Lanka in October!

One night visit to 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.

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.
