Lovely

This place is beautiful, the day we arrived there was very heavy rain, and there was a small leak in one of our rooms, but the room was changed with no problem at all. Breakfast is good, and the garden area is lovely. Good wifi and lots of old, retro items in the commun areas.

Dicht bij het centrum en toch rustig

Ontzettend goed voor ons gezorgd en vervoer geregeld. Extra omelet bij het ontbijt en goede wifi 😊

Handdoeken krijgen ze denk ik niet meer vlekvrij/schoon in de was

Tak tohle jsme fakt nečekali

Jedním slovem NIC.

Všechno: špinavé, zatuchlé a smradlavé, neudržované, teplá voda netekla, studená také ne nebo velmi málo (omlouvali se, že kvůli dešti), dveře nešly zavírat, soukromí žádné. Personál neuměl anglicky, až na slečnu u snídaně. Porce u snídaně nedostačující. Kdyby se někdo o budovu staral, mohlo by to být příjemné místo.

Da migliorare..

Nel complesso l'hotel non è male, le stanze sono spaziose e il posto è piacevole.

Le cose negative sono piccole cose che nell'insieme hanno portato al punteggio sufficiente. La prima cosa è la colazione, davvero poco varia e ripetitiva, in pratica uova pane marmellata e frutta, un solo gusto di marmellate e un solo tipo di frutta per tre giorni di fila. In più essendo servita non si ha la libertà di riprendere qualcosa, magari due uova anziché la frutta o più semplicemente due tazze di tè. Un altra cosa è la mancanza di servizi/accessori, ad esempio, questo è il primo posto dove ho soggiornato in 30 giorni in Sri Lanka che non aveva l'asciugacapelli, personalmente lo trovo assurdo, poi, tre persone e solo 2 asciugamani, letto matrimoniale composto da due lettini. Ultima cosa, un po' più personale, ho trovato un po' invadente le domande su dove andassimo ogni giorno, a che ora torniamo ecc.. cioè, una persona in vacanza vuole un po' di libertà e ti senti così controllato. Capisco non lo fanno per cattiveria ma resta fastidioso e comunque presumo che vogliano informarsi per poterti offrire un servizio, tipo tuk tuk dove molto spesso ci guadagnano sopra ma a quanto pare tutto il paese è così.🤷🏻‍♀️ Un altra cosa è la distanza dalle principali attrazioni. Il prezzo infine, per quello che offrono e come lo offrono non è in linea con gli altri hotel della zona e abbiamo girato praticamente tutto lo stato.

Only place to stay in Kandy

We had a wonderful time at Fortuna Heritage Home! The place is beautiful with a lovely garden next to Kandy Lake. It was super easy to walk around the city from there. The staff was really friendly, and the breakfast was delicious. You could taste how fresh the food was. The rooms were clean and affordable, especially during the busy season in Kandy. Wish we could've stayed longer. Give our regards to the management.

A memorable stay in Kandy

This bungalow property stole my heart with its large garden and heritage bungalow right next to Kandy Lake. The convenience of walking to nearby spots made our stay even more enjoyable. The team's friendliness made us feel right at home, and let's talk about breakfast - absolutely scrumptious! The freshness of their cooking was undeniable, adding an extra layer of joy to each meal. Clean, cozy rooms at such an affordable rate, especially during the busy season, made this stay a real steal. I only wish we had more time to extend our stay - one or two extra nights would have been perfect! If you're in Kandy, don't miss out on the delightful experience Fortuna Heritage Home has to offer!

I wish I stayed longer.

Bardzo miłe miejsce

Śniadanie skromne, ale bardzo smaczne. Przeurocza Pani recepcjonistka, zawsze uśmiechnięta i pomocna. Piękny, unikatowy obiekt z wieloma sprzętami z epoki w przestrzeni wspólnej do relaksu.

Basic rooms in Historical home with beautiful garden in the heart of Kandy

Super friendly and helpful staff. Great location. Beautiful 1930s home - almost a small museum inside, and outside a lovely garden.

The rooms were basic not matching the glamour of the house.

Colonial building in a quiet location in the center

Friendly and helpful staff, good location ( in the center but still a quiet place), clean and spacious rooms. We stayed in a separate building next to the main one which proved to be an advantage as it was calm and we were not disturbed by other guests having breakfast in the main building hall in the morning.

Continental breakfast is rather poor compared to local one so we recommend asking for Sri Lankan breakfast.

Great stay

Good location, walking distance to city center and temple. Hideout restaurant just around the corner. Place is nicely decorated and staff incredibly friendly

We had quite some musquitos in the room and there is no net to protect. The breakfast is very simple with 1 egg and white toast but nice as its offered for free.

Bad experience

Location was good and very close to Lake

The property is heritage but hasn’t been maintained properly. The water leaks in washroom, old furniture and ripped furniture. Room as per my booking was not made available the first night and then full charges were charged.

nice atmosphere with the old colonial spirit

The place has a nice atmosphere with the old colonial spirit and all that old furniture. The rooms are spacious, the bathroom huge. It is a 15 min walk from the centre and the temple , it is located just by the lake. We only stayed one night and it was OK.

Unfortunately, being a colonial villa, the building is not in the perfect condition, you can see it is old and not maintained perfectly, I understand it is super expensive to renovate a place like that and keep the spirit. It was not a big problem for us, the bed was clean and comfy, but for some people looking for higher standard it can be an issue.

Lovely hosts, clean rooms, exceptional location

The staff Elandi and Manu were very kind and went the extra mile to provide us with information on the town, transport etc. The rooms are exceptionally clean and the location is very close to the lake. We will definitely stay here if we visit Kandy again.

Disappointing

The old colonial furniture in the lobby was pretty nice and very nice location. I think that is from positive things..

The hotel really requires deep cleaning and refurbishment. The bathroom is in a very bad state, dirty, and with running cockroaches.

Soothing

I stayed this place over a night. Place has a cozy calm ambiance. All the main attractions in Kandy are in walking distance. Staff is really friendly. Specially need to mention the attendant that I got is really welcoming and fulfilled my need as I needed. Food is good. Room is large enough. Bathroom is spacious and clean. Worth place for the money.

We highly appreciated the friendliness and hospitality and good care of our host

Very pleasant interior style with beautiful suroundings ! Meals were also well prepared. The host has good experience with European guests + you feel at home.right away .very quiet surrounding's except monkeys in the morning might wake you up but is a + to our stay and makes it unique.We recommend visiting the beautiful exceptional botanique garden near Kandy .but also the lake .The temple was of less interest for us .

We would like to pay by means of credit card but that seems not possible for the moment.

Passable

The old furniture and architecture of the house.

Disappointed stay in Fortuna. Seems that they experience renovation or has been closed for a while. The place is not well maintained. Bathroom were quite dirty with a lot of dead insects around. Some construction work are ongoing around making it very noisy in one of the rooms. Bed not really comfortable and breakfast not worth it compare to Sri Lanska standards. It is a shame as the place is a very interesting one with some beautiful old furniture. It could be so much better.

The house is very nice authentic and beautiful

Very stylish house near the beautiful lake

Once it was closed when we went back home, about 10 p.m. Nobody warned us. So we needed to wait outside some time trying to contact the host. Also I had some problems with breakfast, it was always too spicy for me, though I asked about eggs once and didn’t get it.

Convenient Location - Friendly and Helpful People

Location - Less than 1km to the Kandy City and to the Tample of the tooth. So recommending to anyone who visits Kandy as many places are within walking distance. Owner and the staff - They are so friendly and helpful.

This is not a complaint, but need to pay attention to the Hot water system and the shower. And the room door should be smoother to open and close.

ideal location, charming property

We felt privileged to be guests to this house steeped in history: the architecture, the furniture, and the decoration take us back to another era and that feeling is amazing. The garden is magnificent. The location is ideal: 1 minute walk to the lake, you can do everything on foot. The owner is really nice and and he knows very well the history of this property where he was born. The room we had was ok, maybe lacks a little bit of natural light but frankly with the breakfast included, it's a great deal!!
