We stayed at the Chaya Citadel, Kandy en-route from Habarana to Negombo..Thankfully we stayed here for 2 nights only. While we really enjoyed our stay at the Chaya Group's hotel at Habarana, this Kandy hotel is below average. The lobby seems a bit run down, and compared to the welcoming approach at other places in Sri Lanka, the welcome was... more

Having stayed at the Chaaya Village in Habarana, we were expecting a quality hotel with good staff. We were not disappointed.

In this modern hotel our room was spacious with a balcony overlooking the river . Furnishings were comfortable and the bathroom was stunning. There was a lovely pool area with attentive staff.
