“Peaceful”
+Awesome view and peaceful stay! The view from this hotel was absolutely amazing! It was very quiet, peaceful, and clean. Special thanks to Saai who was extremely helpful, and to the elderly gentleman there who was very kind, clean, and nice. The rooms are spacious, and if you want a quiet place away from the city hustle, I highly recommend choosing this hotel. Getting to and from the city is very easy with a simple tuk-tuk. The breakfast was also good and tasty. Overall, it was one of the best experiences I’ve had, and if I visit Sri Lanka again, I will definitely stay here. The only reason I gave 9 instead of 10 is that I suggest changing the bed sheets whenever the room is cleaned. Also, the extra duvet in the closet didn't have a cover and wasn't clean. Other than that, everything was wonderful and I warmly recommend this place for a relaxing stay!
−The room doors need some maintenance because when the neighboring room opens and closes their door, it makes a loud and noisy sound. Also, I suggest providing cleaner covers for the duvets and changing the bed sheets properly when the room is cleaned.

“Great stay in Kandy city”
+Loved the location on top of the hill and the views of the city. The room was spacious with lots of storage which came in handy. The host was friendly and helped advise on various activities in the city and book tuktuks. Also good breakfast with plenty of food.
−The bathroom was weathered and could use a refreshment. The wifi wasn't very reliable.

“Very enjoyable and relaxing stay. The staff helped us with any transportation issues we had.”
+The view was spectacular, the rooms were very clean and breakfast was good. The staff was so helpful, very kind and accomodating
−The signage is barely visible, most auto and taxi drivers miss the location. The location is uphill which is difficult to reach if you don't have a high powered vehicle.

“Absolutely beautiful place - would recommend 100%”
+Buena vista is located in a beautiful spot outside of Kandy. It is worth being out of the hustle and bustle of the city, because this is a beautiful place. A bit like stepping back in time. Restful, clean and peaceful. We loved it. Also, tuk tuks are very reasonable in and out of Kandy so it’s worth it. Staff helped us with transport too.

“A beautiful tranquil stay in Kandy”
+The property is a tranquil escape from the city though only a short 10 minute drive from the hustle and bustle. The home is surrounded by beautiful plants and the morning light is beautiful. Puvannesh was very friendly and hospitable and made sure we were safe when we were out late at night. The style of the home is a beautiful example of tropical modernism, with beautiful details.
