塔魯別墅康提(Taru Villas Kandy)

Das herrschaftliche Anwesen ist eine Ruheoase oberhalb einer stark befahrenen Straße . Die Anlage und die Zimmer sind sehr gepflegt, stilvoll und geräumig. Am Pool sind ausreichend Liegen vorhanden. Das Personal empfing uns bei der Anreise sehr nett mit Blumen und wies uns auf den eventuellen Eisenbahnlärm hin. Das Essen war bei unserem Zimmerpreis inkludiert. Es ist kein Fine Dining, aber es war schmackhaft und ausreichend. Eine klare Weiterempfehlung für einen Aufenthalt in Kandy.

Su un’anonimo e trafficato viale della periferia di Kandy un bel portale in legno ti separa da un’oasi di pace e di buon gusto davvero eccezionale. Eccoci a Tarus Villa Kandy, parte di una catena di splendidi piccoli resort in tutto Sri Lanka ricavati da ville d'epoca. Qui a Kandy la vecchia dimora coloniale è stata trasformata da pochi anni in un raffinato piccolo resort, trasmettendo un fascino di notevole impatto peraltro esaltato da un accoglienza ed in genere livello di servizio di altissimo livello. Una bella piscina sorge in un delizioso giardino davanti alla struttura principale sotto il cui porticato sono disposti pochi tavoli dove si consuma una eccellente colazione e, volendo pranzi e ceni di livello certamente al di sopra dello standard medio locale. Le camere sono belle e funzionali, ben arredate ma le dimensioni sono piuttosto contenute. Non sono piccole ma ti aspetteresti un po’ più di spazio. Comunque sia, malgrado la posizione anonima, il rumore del traffico esterno e lo sferragliare di un (per fortuna) saltuario treno nei dintorni, soggiornare per un paio di giorni in questa esclusiva oasi è un piacere unico e vale tutto il prezzo, neppure troppo al di sopra dello standard di alberghi formalmente a 4 o 5 stelle a Sri Lanka.

Really nice colonial villa set just off the main road in Kandy. Villa is newly refurbished and well maintained. Really beautiful opportunity to stay in a nice private villa with a really beautiful lobby and courtyard. There is a small outdoor pool. The train line lies just behind the villa and so you can catch it a few times a day.

An absolutely wonderful oasis in the middle of KandyCity. Beautiful hotel with amazing people giving their guests superb service. Everything is lovely - architecture, swimming pool, beautiful room, great shower, fantastic food (he’s the best chef in Kandy!). They are now serving alcohol but really just beers or wine with a choice of red or white, by the bottle but not by the glass. This is something we feel they could perhaps improve on. We would not hesitate to return or to recommend it!

Lovely place. Good was amazing! Staff very attentive. Lovely old house with a nice pool Close to a Main road and railway tracks but did not bother me.! The crab curry was simply wonderful- spicey too for my Sri Lankan taste buds!

A beautiful colonial style hotel with rooms that fit the colonial description. Get lost in the history of the building which is over 250 years old with many of the original building and features reserved. The team here add to the old world charm, nothing is too hard for them, any request is met with a smile and can do attitude and is delivered upon. Our room did not include a minibar/fridge and upon asking if it was possible to have one for medications, within minutes one was delivered and it was already cold. Come with an appetite as the meals are tasty and plentiful. The bar facilities are limited but we asked as they don’t have Champagne/sparkling wine on offer if we could BYO and again met with a can do attitude. Thank you team for a memorable stay.

What a wonderful oasis of calm and beauty in the hustle and bustle of this overgrown city! Do take time to look at the old photos on the walls of the public rooms and learn about the history of this former home of a prominent Sri Lankan family. Excellent service! All staff speak good English.
