Hotel Suisse Kandy - since 1890

Close to Kandy Lake. No elevator for the fourth floor

Absolutely stunning, giant compound with an extensive history! They even offer a history walking tour but unfortunately there weren’t enough people signed up to make the tour happen. If you’re looking for a “colonial” stay, this is a great place. I recommend just walking around to see it for yourself. It’s also right on Kandy Lake, so it’s a nice walk (and not too far from the Kandyan Culture Center and the Sacred Tooth Temple Meals were good, but service sometimes is a little messy. Buffet was missing things like tongs or a cloth over the tray handles (which were hot to touch), but there’s a lot of servers walking around so I’m sure they’ll be able to do double-checks on this

The food has no variety and below average for the price. Looks like cost cutting in every department.

Overall the hotel is very nice, but we were unlucky with the room. We booked for a room with two single beds, when we arrived it turned out to be a room with one queen bed. We asked for another room, and the new room was very quiet le and shabby room unfortunately.

Hotel Suisse carries a colonial charm that takes you back in time. The food is good, offering a fair range of choices. However, the dining experience was slightly marred by some worn napkins. The air conditioning in our room was a bit loud, but it didn't keep us from having a comfortable stay. I might look into other hotels in the area next time to experience something different.

This was the fourth time I stayed at Hotel Suisse. Great place. Good hospitality. It was a pleasant stay. The two you receptionist need to get more experience. They did not find any records of my trip.com booking. I had to find my records and provide those to them.
