AI Summary
Located on a hilltop in Kandy, the accommodation boasts stunning views, comfortable rooms with Jacuzzis, and excellent service. However, some guests felt it was overpriced compared to other options in Sri Lanka.

I originally booked Grand, but who knew it was canceled for no reason before I checked in. I was really speechless. Then I was forced to change to this hotel when I was playing. This hotel has a good environment, but the location is too far away, and there is nothing around. Originally, Kandy is a mountain city, so it is inconvenient to eat. Actually, the overall view from the top of the mountain is not as good as what I booked before. In fact, I can’t see anything, because I passed by for dinner, and the location of the grand is excellent. The room facilities are old, the roof is covered with blisters, the service is not bad, the price is high, and the price/performance ratio is not high. Breakfast is also ordered.

Amazing stay in this little boutique hotel. Rooms were comfortable and offered spectacular views of the Kandy Hills that you could enjoy from your personal jacuzzi. The staff were well mannered and considerate and the food was very tasty.

Theva Residency in Kandy is a boutique hotel that stands out for its breathtaking views of the surrounding hills and valley. Guests appreciate its modern, well-appointed rooms, particularly the suites with in-room Jacuzzis. The infinity pool, sauna, and fine dining restaurant add to its appeal, offering a luxurious and intimate experience

I have to say, I was blown away by Theva Residency. The winding roads leading to the hotel are a bit eyebrow raising, and even when you pull up to the driveway, it's still very unassuming. But we were immediately welcomed into what would become a highlight in our Sri Lanka trip. Theva Residency is a nicely adorned boutique property in the hills of Kandy. An easy 15-20 minute drive to Temple of the Tooth and Kandy city center proper. The service was warm, friendly, and genuine from the moment we checked in. We were assigned room 7, and it was a beautiful mountain facing room, that was exceptionally large. The bed was super comfortable, and the hotel had all of the major amenities you could need in the bathroom. What really sets Theva apart is their ability to be boutique, but have all of the bells and whistles of a luxury hotel. While we didn't use the pool, little touches like turn down service and someone bringing chocolates before bedtime were nice touches. The food was INCREDIBLE - we had the set menu for dinner and the options were fantastic, presentation was impeccable, and service was stellar. It also helps that this property has more staff than guests so they're always looking to enhance the experience. I was especially blown away by breakfast - a multi-course affair with a fresh fruit plate and bread basket to start. All of which were fresh and super tasty. Coffee your way - I asked for a regular drip (filtered) coffee and it was served in a French press! Theva is in a league of its own, and for someone who regularly stays at 5* luxury resorts, I was so incredibly surprised by how lovely this stay was. Would highlight recommend to anyone visiting Kandy and looking for a boutique / local stay with genuine care and service.

Though I always share this as a secret to a selected few.. Theva has been loved by many by now. The seasons have changed but the amazing food, ambience & Mr. Russell have not changed a bit. As always they were simply wonderful. I dined with my wife on her birthday & Theva made it all perfect. Thank you & wishing many more prestigious years dear Theva. #thevacuisine

What a gem of a find in the hills just outside of Kandy. The staff couldn’t do enough for us and from the moment we arrived we felt at home. Our room (14) was spotless and spacious, with a very comfortable bed and allowing incredible views across the landscape over the city. The food was terrific and would echo previous comments that you have to try the 17 dish Sri Lankan curry experience. The restaurant manager recommended we share between two and we’re very glad we did as the portion for one is huge! Compliments must go to the chef for the cuisine and to all the wonderful staff for their fantastic, helpful service.
