Le style colonial, le cadre, le staff, la nourriture. Très bel endroit.
La piscine n’est pas attrayante. Il ne faut pas compter dessus. L’endroit est assez bruyant près d’une route fort fréquentée, mais en centre ville ce n’est pas surprenant.

Everything about Ru Boutique is exceptional.
The room was huge and a comfortable temperature thanks to the a/c. The bathroom was big and the shower was powerful and hot.
Upon arrival, we were greeted with fresh fruit and a freshly squeezed fruit juice. Perfect.
The location by the lake is ideal. If you want to walk around the lake and into Kandy, it’s a 30 minute walk and the views are exquisite. If you don’t want to walk, take a tuk tuk. It’s only 5 minutes to the centre.
The staff went above and beyond. They were sooooo helpful. The breakfast was beautiful and kept us going until the early evening.
I can’t think of a better place to stay.
We will return.
Thank you so much.
There was nothing to dislike. Absolutely 5 star.

Stylisches Hotel am Ufer des Sees.
Tolles Frühstück und toller Service.
Der Pool ist winzig und liegt aktuell direkt neben einer Baustelle.

Beautifully located on the lake, elegant hotel with spacious, luxurious rooms. Small swimming pool on the roof is well maintained. One of the staff came to bring us towels when they saw us go out. Very nice dining room. Efficient A/C. 15 minute walk around the lake too the Temple of the Sacred Tooth and to the city centre. Superb little hotel.

Hotel was very well located, walking distance from main attractions and the city centre. Room was also very comfortable. Hotel’s interior and exterior design also conveyed an old world charm. Service was also excellent.
One occasion where food on the ala carte menu was a little salty.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel in Ru Boutique. The staff was friendly and helpful, always ready to assist me with anything I needed. The room was spacious and clean, with a comfortable bed, a modern bathroom. The interior was breathtaking. The hotel is located in a convenient area, close to many attractions and restaurants. I enjoyed visiting the Temple of the Tooth and the Kandy Lake which was right next to it. The food was out of the world was delicious and varied, with both local and international dishes. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Kandy. It was a perfect getaway.
Loved everything!

The place is gorgeous, truly an amazing boutique hotel tastefully decorated by the owners. The rooms are so amazing and the house is terrific. It has all the amenities you require. The location is very convenient around the lake and a short walk to the centre of the Kandy town. The service is excellent and the people are charming. I was in a lake view room which was beautiful. The rest of my family occupied a two bedroom suite with two beautifully decorated bedrooms.
I highly recommend this place, and hoping to return for a longer stay in this gorgeous place situated in the heart of beautiful Kandy.
The only slight criticism was the two bedroom suite was connected with an internal courtyard exposed to the outside elements (mosquitoes and limited privacy).

We liked everything, the people and the service are amazing. They care a lot about the guests and welcome the best way possible. They are great with kids. We loved to stay there.
Almost nothing. Maybe need to have a coffee espresso on the breakfast. The breakfast could be bit better.

Very cute small designed hotel! Great location with lake view from the terrace and balcony. Fantastic British design of the hotel - all hotel looks very modern and new. Lovely atmosphere. Very friendly and welcomed stuff. Good and tasty restaurant. Amazing breakfast outside in the garden with the lake view. Our category of room was upgraded complimentary without additional price. We highly recommend it to all people visiting Kandy.
Nothing, everything was perfect!

well decorated, very kind and helpful staff. fruit platter offered every afternoon. good location. food is average.
if you choose a garden view bear in mind this is also on the (very noisy) road side, so if you need silence to sleep, better to choose a room on the back of the property.

This is a stunning boutique hotel located right on the lake in Kandy. It has lovely rooms and excellent service.
It was all good.

If we could rate it 100, we would 🙃 the staff were amazing, friendly and helpful. They were trying to give us what we needed and kept on checking on us. We wanted to have a simple photo session with the family and they connected us with a photographer a few days before so we could arrange it with them. They also organized a half day tour for us with a great tour guide (Sunny). Though Sunny is not part of the hotel he is in the network and is very knowledgeable. He took us where we wanted to go, arranged a yummy local lunch for us (and secretly arranged a Sri Lankan breakfast for us at the hotel) and explained to us a lot about Kandy. We were Ru Boutique over Xmas, they had an Xmas dinner which was really really good. But in general food was good in Ru Boutique and we didn't expect less from them. Upon Sunny's hint, we got (SUPER YUMMY) Sri Lankan breakfast on one of the mornings! They also delivered Xmas gingerbread cookies and log cake!!!! Location is also quite good as some of the activities are within walking distance! Well done Ru Boutique! We hope that they continue to do amazing like they already are!

Really pretty hotel in a great location, lovely interconnecting rooms so not sharing a room with the kids for once which was great!
Great small pool on the roof which the kids enjoyed cooling down in. Huge and tasty breakfast.

Very cozy and beautiful place. Nice location next to the lake and in a short distance from the temple.
It was great to have a spacious room with a high ceiling. Very comfortable pillows and bed. Great shower.
We like to have windows/balcony door opened but the mosquitoes come in. It's a normal situation but the bed doesn't have a mosquitoes net.
