Hemaka and the team at Liselma Residence could not have been more hospitable and helpful. This is truly was one of the most memorable and relaxing places I've ever stayed in. Perched on a hillside with commanding views across Kandy. Floor to ceiling windows filled our enormous room with natural light. Perhaps the largest and most comfortable bed I've slept in. The white walls, wooden floors and spaciousness all contribute to an atmosphere of serenity and tranquility. We felt special here. Thank you so much to Hemaka , Opisala and team. I could not recommend Liselma residence highly enough.

Someone on here described this place as a piece of heaven and that pretty much sums it up (and I'm not a religious man). I ended up extending my reservation for an extra night as I couldn't miss the chance to stay another day. I requested the room furthest down the hill and, yes, there are stairs to get down there (not that many really), but how else would one expect to get down a hill? 🧐 This also meant the cabin felt secluded and the view had an uninterrupted jungle-y vibe. Both mornings I sat on my balcony as a baby monkey scrambled and launched wildly towards birds high in the treetops - its family just lounged unbothered as the sun peered over the smokey mountains - no helicopter parenting in the monkey world! The pool is stunning (rooms up here would have a similarly stunning view). I swam each morning and again in the afternoon upon my return after a day of exploring Kandy. Don't let the distance to central Kandy throw you off - Tuk Tuks are super fun and there's so much on the journey to stimulate the senses (dodging bigass cattle and the like) and you won't be needing to back-and-forth to town regardless. Staff were super kind and accomodating and the curry for dinner and egg hoppers for brekkie were the real deal. How's the rest of my trip going to match this? Would stay again no question.

Everything was just perfect!! We stayed in Kandy during the heavy rains 11/25 for 4 days and the hotel staff - although the had to work non-stop - took such good care of us. It’s just incredible how they kept things working (not only electricity, hot water supply, but also exceptional service at any time). It was a national tragedy but this hotel was the best place we could have wished to stay. We can totally recommend this luxury und outstanding accommodation!!

The rooms were really cozy and comfortable and we had a great sleep. The host and his family were really helpful. We were going on a hike, and host even sent a vehicle to pick our bags up from the city before check-in. Breakfast was great. They offered many types of food which was really tasty and fresh while also catering to our specific requests (eg: Allergies, Vegetarians). Overall a great experience.

We had such a good time staying here while in Kandy. The location is a bit outside the city, but it’s very comfortable as you get the quiet atmosphere away from the noisy city centre. Leslie and his family is very friendly and will help you with whatever you need. They also serve amazing local dinner, which we ate all three nights. Highly recommend!

The best place to stay in Kandy! The room is spacious and very comfortable, one of the best beds we’ve had in Sri Lanka! Breakfast is delicious. As the accommodation is located outside of the city center, it is very quiet and peaceful. The host is great, he took care of all our pick-ups in and around Kandy and gave great advice.

My stay at Anniewatte House was very nice. My room was clean, spacious and functional. When I asked for a Sri Lankan breakfast I got the most delicious breakfasts served on the patio outside my room. The location was quiet and in a nice neighbourhood. I walked downtown every time but it is a bit far. However you can always go by Tuktuk. There is a big supermarket nearby. The family was very friendly and helpful. They also gave me a plate and knife when I asked for it.

Friendly, approachable, super helpful host family. Location a bit out of Kandy, but we saw that as a bonus being away from the hustle am bustle. 8 mins tuk tuk ride and you're in city centre. Really nice comfortable room and balcony. If ever we're in Kandy again I would definitely stay here. Highly recommend e sysy

The perfect time out/chill out atmosphere. Zero distractions so a good place to stay between busier locations. The staff is very considerate and kind. We stayed in the chalet which was great as the rooms in the bungalow are very closed, darker with no outside space. Garden is lovely and the pool area, while small is very nice.

Despite its newness, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The location is perfect - close to the city center but with ample parking. For the price, this hotel offered exceptional value. Highly recommend!
