This hotel is situated at the centre of Kandy & pretty much all the main Attractions are at walking distance. The common area has a breathtaking view of Sri Bodhi maha Viharaya. AC works well, bed sheets are clean. Bathroom is equipped with all modern amenities. The freshener used in the room was amazing. Upon asking, the staffs took extra steps to provide me the same liquid to bring it back home. The interior in the Hallway gives good backdrops to the pictures, I would highly Recommend this place if you're looking for an amazing stay at an affordable rate in the heart of Kandy. Cheers to Priyanta & Thilanka for being so active n supportive to fulfill the needs of the guests.

I wish the staircase would be not that much steep

The room was clean and the staff is very polite and helpful They have a restaurant which serves delicious food, please do try their menu. You may find one in the room. Please do inform the staff to make the food less spicy otherwise i think it would be supper hot (I guess they increase the spicy level for locals but its better to let them know) The location is very convenient for visiting Dalada Maligawa, Train Station, Bus Stand and for Pickme Taxis.

Some matters related to the room Room No 21 The washroom Lock was not working properly The Switch & Plug point in the washroom is exposed to the Shower, which could be a bit hazardous The bath cubical door is a bit hard to close

The value for the room was excellent, it's a simple place pretty well hidden, but I really like the rooftop bar and restaurant, the food was delicious. I would recommend this place if you're just going to be in candy for 1 or 2 days. The staff was very flexible about extending my trip, and are happy to give recommendations as to what to do.

They close the gates after 11:00 and so you have to ring a bell in order for people to come in, here's a long set of stairs with low ceilings to get to the residence itself, Aunt there was no hot water in the shower, and no comforter or quilt on the bed. These are small little nitpicky things. None of this is a deal breaker for me.

Very friendly staff! The rooms are comfortable, but nothing special which is fine. We asked to change one of our rooms as the one we got first was quite noisy and they arranged this without a problem! I forgot something when I left the hotel and the owners were kind enough to try and find a way for me to get it back! Perfect location to explore Kandy! Breakfast at the rooftop restaurant was really nice😊

One of the rooms were very noisy, although we were able to change rooms! Also, the other room had quite a small window, but this also helped keep the room at a more cool temperature.

I stayed here twice for 5-7 days apiece while up in Kandy in February and March, and will probably stay again at some point. Yes, there are ants in the bathrooms as other reviews mention, and not all of the wall sockets seem to have power, but otherwise it's pretty clean and well maintained. If you don't mind the above (I don't), Dumbara offers great rates for a centrally located and reasonably clean and comfortable place to stay, with functional AC. You can walk to the train, restaurants, and most downtown sightseeing spots in minutes. Great views from the rooftop cafe, too.

Nice room with AC, good value for money, the location is very good, in the center of the town, close to bus and train station, quiet in the night. Good laundry service.

We had a leak from the window when it started to rain, there was quite a lot of water in the room, but staff helped us very quickly, cleaned it up and sealed the window with towels. There is no mosquito net on the bed. Other than that just the small things like not working handles, bathroom door and shower door, but that's usual Sri Lankan standard I guess 😅

If you want to be close to many restaurants, shops and bars, to the train and the bus station, then Dumbara peak is perfect. Walking distance from everything! The room was great value for money overall! The bathroom was modern, with a great shower and very clean. The staff was friendly, kind and welcoming. The cherry on top is the bar/restaurant on the rooftop, really pleasant to spend some time out of the hectic roads of Kandy!

The WiFi was not working very well in the room and was not reaching the rooftop.

Property was very well located, close to all restaurants, shops, train station and bus station. Big double bed with a mosquito net was a plus as well as a big bathroom and fridge. Restaurant on top has a great deal for breakfast, $5 for a fruit platter, English breakfast and tea/coffee, well worth the price.

Not a big issue but a lot of steps and low ceiling for taller people caring bags

From the entrance, the place looks a bit shady. We were tired, there were lots of stairs to get to the reception, we were skeptical at the beginning. The surprise was that we slept here better than in any accomodation in Sri Lanka. We stayed only for one night, but the bathroom was very nice and clean, and the room, even though didn't have much natural light, had a very big bed with a mosquito net. The AC worked really smooth, it wasn't noisy and windy like other ACs we had.

The room was very nice and clean. Bathroom as well. The only issue was that the sockets didn't work in the room, only in the bathroom. The had little shampoos and conditioners, which I really appreciated. Also the location was great. The have a really nice rooftop terrace bar, where they have good fresh juices, but I wouldn't necessarily order food again.

At the rooftop bar, there is no kitchen, so they cook literally everything behind the counter. Weellll, that wasn't that great.
