Castle Hill Bungalow by Seven Angels

We had a truly wonderful experience during our short stay. From the moment we arrived, the staff provided outstanding service—warm, attentive, and always ready to help with a Sri Lankan smile. Every detail was thoughtfully handled, making us feel genuinely welcomed. The hotel itself is stunning with a mixture of old and new. The design is elegant and inviting, with beautifully maintained spaces that reflect both comfort and luxury. Our room was spotless, tastefully decorated, and offered a serene retreat. The location is breathtaking! The amenities were top-notch, and the location was perfect for exploring the area. We especially appreciated the little touches—fresh flowers in the lobby, prompt room service, and the relaxing ambiance throughout. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a memorable and relaxing getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life. We’ll definitely be returning! Riza & Jasmin, USA

Quaint century old residence. Ensuites are refreshed with ongoing improvements with a pool construction in progress. Photos of the exterior are either very old or photo shopped as you can barely see the exterior due to the beautiful, lush gardens. Staff are keen to assist but some are not very good with English but display the usual, incredible Sri Lankan hospitality

This small boutique hotel is beautiful and the atmosphere brings you back in time to a different era. The service is very discreet and professional. The location is very convenient (10’ by walk from the lake). The possibility to use the rooftop pool at the sister hotel is great. Very lovely stay

The most exquisite boutique hotel, once a colonial bungalow. The winding driveway sets the scene, for what lies ahead nestled in the hillside. We were warmly greeted with a refreshing watermelon drink. Our room had a wonderful four poster bed, with crisp linen and comfy pillows. Evening dinner was served by candlelight outside on the verandah overlooking the Kandy Lake and Temple of the tooth! With the hustle and bustle of Kandy city down below. Special mention to Chamindu and Hiruna who were the most attentive waiters, of which nothing was too much trouble, helpful and very professional. Clean, beautifully decorated with well appointed bedrooms and bathrooms. Breakfast either English or Sri Lankan can be served inside at the grand dining table or outside on the terrace. Thank you for being part of our Sri Lankan visit.

A fantastic hotel in a perfect location, a beautiful old colonial building. We had a fabulous room (there are only 4!) with doors out to the garden, swing egg seats and a great view down to Kandy, the lake and The Temple of the Tooth. Only 10 min walk down, abit longer back up as it is steep! We had breakfast out in the garden, looking at the view. The staff were very pleasant and attentive, and they, and the manager, Sydney were very friendly.

This is small hotel (only 4 rooms) in a colonial house set in a beautiful garden. The staff is very friendly. Unfortunately, the hotel is not well managed and maintained, which basically destroys the whole appeal of the property. There were a number of issues with our room: -some mold on the walls (see picture), with the odor that goes with it, most likely coming from a leak on the roof. We asked for another room, but the problem was the same -the sink faucet is not well fixed -the shower drain is clogged -there was also a security hazard with a power outlet very close to the shower (see picture) In addition to that, we were waken up at 7h00 by construction workers making a lot of noise. While we had breakfast, it was basically the same circus… Also to note, the place has not swimming pool and no restaurant. In a nutshell, the place would have a lot of potential if it was well maintained and managed, but at the moment it is not worth the money.
