The manageress was lovely to myself and my partner and wound up upgrading our room for free after we returned for the third time. The room we had with a balcony had a few bugs in the room as there was a tree overhanging the balcony area, but once I spoke to reception they came into the room with a... More

I have spent several nights in Majestic and each morning had a nice walk down the road to the center. Great location! Their terace restaurant offers a great view while the food is fantastic. The room was very tidy and internet was working. Great value for money!

My pal and I were traveling and the proprietor saw us walking up the hill and offered us a lift. We declined as we had booked into another hotel just down the road which incidentally we were more than impressed with. This act of kindness did pursued us to take a look at her rooms just in case we were... More

Friendly helpful staff. Free wifi. Free breakfast with the best view in town. Clean comfortable rooms. Easy walk into town, slightly more difficult coming back but do-able. What more could the honest backpacker want? Thoroughly recommended.

Unfortunately there is absolutely nothing positive about this hotel to report. I highly recommend no one stay there. The first and most distressing reason for avoiding this hotel at all costs, is that they have an intolerable termite infestation problem. There were over 100 termites that took over my room about one hour into my stay, The management was no... More

stayed in this hostel or 'guest house' as they're called in sri lanka. Very clean and spacious and Joseph the manager was incredibly helpful and friendly. He even drove us to the bottom of the hill, on which the hostel is sat in order for us to get a tuk tuk into the centre of Kandy, Important to note a... More

Having recently stayed at the Majestic, I can report really positive things. The hotel has a great view over looking Kandy- it truly is an exceptional location being close to town, but far enough away to enjoy the great views of Kandy (a 3 minute Tuk tuk ride from down town Kandy). Joseph, the owner, made us feel very welcome,... More

If you want to experience all bad things (Hell) please stay here. Drunken manager with Cigar will always wel comes you with all dirty words. Better to stay on roads than staying in this so called Hotel.
