kandy 傑特威畫廊酒店
安靜舒適的休憩之地,服務細節有待提升
入住了Kandy的傑特威畫廊酒店,總體來説是一段令人放鬆的體驗。
酒店的房間寬敞明亮,配有陽台,我很幸運地住到了正對泳池的房間,視野極佳。房間的舒適度很好,每天早上醒來,推開陽台門,眼前就是泳池和遠處的大自然,十分愜意。酒店靠着斯里蘭卡著名的馬哈維利河(Mahaweli River),周圍的生態環境非常好,空氣也非常好。經常能看到各種鳥類和鷹,非常適合喜歡安靜和親近自然的人。
泳池是我最喜歡的部分。幾乎全天候開放,清晨或傍晚游泳時,感覺整個泳池和天地都屬於我,讓人倍感放鬆。餐廳也正對泳池,用餐時既能享受美景,又能感受到自然的靜謐。每天早餐後,我都會坐在平台上看書或處理工作,氣氛安靜,温度適宜,回想在整個斯里蘭卡20多天的旅程中,這裡是為數不多讓我能安心讀書的地方之一。
酒店距離市區較遠,可能對希望探索Kandy市區的遊客來説有二三十分鐘的開車時間。其次,服務細節的專業度還有提升空間。例如,入住時有服務人員表演當地舞蹈,但明顯有些敷衍。之後,酒店安排了一位專屬服務員,並遞給我一個手機供隨時聯繫,但她的服務顯得比較生疏。例如在房間時,我問窗簾是手動還是電動的,她回答是手動後,演示了一下又拉開了窗簾,而當時已是晚上6、7點,天色完全黑了,完全沒有打開的必要。同樣一位服務員,每天早上吃早餐時,都會問我要吃什麼。我説吃麥片時,總會問是加椰糖漿還是蜂蜜,而我連續四天都選擇了椰糖漿,但每天還是會被重複詢問。都是小事,但也可以看出服務更多是一個形式。
總的來説,Kandy的傑特威畫廊酒店是一個適合放鬆和親近自然的地方。它的房間、泳池和周圍環境都很好,性價比也高。如果能在服務細節上進一步完善,主動、貼心地去服務,整體體驗會更加令人滿意。
A Peaceful and Comfortable Retreat, but with Room for Service Improvement
I stayed at the Jetwing Kandy Gallery during my visit to Kandy, and overall, it was a relaxing experience.
The rooms are spacious and bright, with balconies. I was fortunate to have a room overlooking the pool, which offered a fantastic view. The room was very comfortable, and every morning, I enjoyed waking up, stepping onto the balcony, and soaking in the tranquility of the surroundings. The hotel is located by the famous Mahaweli River, and the natural environment around it is excellent, with frequent sightings of various birds and eagles. It’s a great place for those who love peace and nature.
The pool was my favorite part of the hotel. It’s open almost all day, and swimming in the morning or evening felt like having the entire pool and sky to myself, a truly serene experience. The restaurant also overlooks the pool, and dining there offers both visual and sensory enjoyment. After breakfast each day, I would sit on the terrace, read a book, or work. It was quiet, and the temperature was perfect—not too hot. This hotel was one of the few places during my 20-day trip in Sri Lanka where I could truly relax and enjoy some peaceful reading time.
However, the hotel has some shortcomings in its service. First, it’s located quite far from the city center, which might not be convenient for those looking to explore Kandy. Second, the quality of service felt unrefined. For example, upon check-in, staff members performed a traditional song and dance, but it felt half-hearted. Later, I was assigned a personal service staff member and given a phone for direct contact. However, the staff member seemed inexperienced. For instance, when I asked if the curtains were manual or electric, they demonstrated how to close them but then reopened them, even though it was already 6-7 p.m. and completely dark outside. These small details reflected a lack of polish in the service.
Another minor issue was at breakfast. Every morning, I chose cereal and was asked if I preferred coconut syrup or honey. I answered “coconut syrup” every time, but the staff still asked me the same question every day. While it’s a small matter, it suggests room for improvement in their service process.
Overall, the Jetwing Kandy Gallery is a great place to relax and connect with nature. The rooms, pool, and surrounding environment are excellent. If the hotel could enhance its service details, such as being more attentive to guests’ habits and preferences, the experience would be even better.
Добрый день ! Я выбирал отель рядом с королевским садом . Все было замечательно , хорошая комната с красивым видом на Канди , балкон , отличный завтрак и его подача все было замечательно .
К легким минусам можно отнести расположение : машина не смогла доехать до отеля 200 метров , очень крутая гора .
На этаже два номера , а душ и умывальник один . Мне не мешало т.к. во втором номере никто не жил .
Спасибо хозяину он очень дружелюбный !!!
Decent clean stay, and good value for the money. Room was small and tidy, clean bathroom, quite nice modern style overall with apparent concrete wall finish ( cool if you ask me and unexpected ).
Staff was friendly and helpful, only thing was that the room was direclty in front of the elevator and it was noisy. In the early morning there are monkeys on the balcony searching for food so better not leave the door open.
EEnglish RoseMisty Hills Villa Kadugannawa boasts the most incredible view over local mountains, best enjoyed if you are taking a cooling dip in the (small, but perfectly positioned) infinity pool! My husband and I were very well looked after during our short stay. The hotel staff served lovely breakfasts, organised two dinners for us and booked a tuk tuk for a day trip to Kandy. They also surprised me with a beautiful little cake on my birthday and even sang to me! The only small points I would make is that the dinners are not actually cooked on site - and that the staff did not offer to clean or make up our bedroom during our 3 night stay. Nevertheless, much kindness and warmth was demonstrated towards us and we loved the rural position of the property.

We spent three days exploring Kandy and neighboring region. The hotel is tucked behind some commercial buildings, but once the gates open and you move up the driveway, it all fades away. The hotel is elegant with an attention to details. Each space is carefully arranged to make you feel comfortable.
The staff are what really makes Taru Villa shine. Led by the hotel manager, the staff are welcoming and warm. You couldn’t ask for anything more. The food was excellent. The conversation was even better. We highly recommend to anyone.
Well done Taru Villa, well done!
ผผู้เข้าพักThe Good
The standout feature of The Coffee Bungalow is undoubtedly its staff, particularly Adrian, who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable. Everyone we encountered was attentive and genuinely warm, making us feel well cared for. The food was another highlight—delicious and thoughtfully prepared. A particularly nice touch was when they packed us a complimentary to-go lunch for our train journey out of Kandy, which was a pleasant and unexpected gesture.
The Bad
The lack of air conditioning was a notable downside, especially given Kandy’s humidity. While the property has a charming colonial feel, the absence of a solid door between the bedroom and bathroom was an odd design choice. Although the toilet and shower do have louvered doors, privacy is somewhat compromised. Another issue was the challenging entry system—we found ourselves locked out one night, which was frustrating and inconvenient.
The Ugly
Unfortunately, the biggest drawback was the ant problem. While some level of bugs is to be expected in a tropical setting, the sheer number of ants, particularly in the bathroom but also in the bedroom, was hard to ignore. It definitely impacted our overall comfort.
Overall, The Coffee Bungalow has a lot of charm and some truly wonderful hospitality, but there are a few quirks and inconveniences that might not suit every traveler. If you’re prepared for a bit of rustic charm and can handle the lack of AC and privacy, the warm service and great food may make up for the downsides.
ผผู้เข้าพักhad pleasure of staying at this hotel, and I couldn't be more impressed with the level of service and hospitality we received. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and memorable.
The team was incredibly helpful in arranging transportation and suggesting places to visit. They recommended we attend the Tooth Relic Procession and suggested us to visit a waterfall, which turned out to be the most breathtaking waterfall I've ever seen. Their local knowledge truly enhanced our experience.
When our cab dropped us off in the mid , the hotel staff immediately came to pick us up in tuk-tuk.
The staff was consistently polite and accommodating, making us feel welcome and valued throughout our stay. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a place where the staff genuinely cares about making your stay special. Thank you for the experience!
ผผู้เข้าพักИз плюсов: горячая вода, временами кипяток и толстые пушистые полотенца. Чистая постель, зеркала, рабочие поверхности.
В остальном, впечатление, что попал в отель в момент переезда.
ผผู้เข้าพักThe owners and employees at this hotel are so, so lovely.
Unfortunately their hotel is not. I almost feel catfished as many of the photos highlighted the bar and pool party atmosphere. This was not the case - the pool was a decent size but in the shade and I actually didn’t see anyone in it. The pool party drinking shots I highly suspect were perhaps not a genuine source.
The same goes for the bar which is massive and attended to by several lovely young, bored gentlemen as both times I popped up (once for dinner) I was the only patron. Again no party atmosphere or even people - which is a shame as it is a big venue.
Fortunately next door was another venue for some decent cocktails and music which saved the boredom somewhat.
The bedroom was a decent size with a small fridge (but didn’t work), the bathroom was small, felt dirty, no hand soap or soap for the shower (apart from leftover previous occupants - and that was gross).
The pressure was poor making showering difficult and there was plaster on the floor from some damage - not cleaned up.
The bed was massive and comfortable with air conditioning and a fan so sleep was good.
Finally, and to repeat, the staff were lovely. Very hospitable and the location is about a ten minute walk to the Sacred Tooth Temple and Kandy Lake. So great location.
Would I stay there again - no. Would I pop in to say hello to the owners and next door for a cocktails - possibly!
