Pinnawala Elephant Front View Hotel, hotel in Kegalle

Located in Rambukkana in the Kegalle District region, Pinnawala Elephant Front View Hotel features a balcony. This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking.

The bed was very comfortable, a nice view of the elephants at the orphanage when they are let out at 8:30am and just a 10 minute walk max to walk to the entrance. It’s right by some restaurants on the Main Street.

New Toropi Homestay, hotel in Kegalle

Featuring mountain views, New Toropi Homestay provides accommodation with a garden and a balcony, around 8.5 km from Kandy Royal Botanic Gardens.

Our stay at Toropi Homestay was nothing short of magical. Nestled in a serene jungle setting, just a short distance from the bustling city of Kandy, this hidden gem offers the perfect blend of tranquility and adventure. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Nishad and his wonderful family, whose hospitality made us feel instantly at home. The food, lovingly prepared by Nishad’s wife, was some of the best Sri Lankan cuisine we’ve ever had—each meal was a delightful exploration of local flavors and traditions. Nishad went above and beyond as our host, taking us on unforgettable excursions to a local tea factory, stunning waterfalls, the iconic Ambuluwawa Tower, and several beautiful temples. These experiences gave us a deep appreciation for the natural beauty and rich culture of the area, all while avoiding the usual tourist crowds. What truly sets Toropi Homestay apart is the genuine warmth and kindness of Nishad and his family. Their care and attention to detail made our stay the best we had in Sri Lanka. If you’re looking for a place that offers both comfort and authentic experiences, Toropi Homestay is an absolute must-visit.

Leisure Living Resort-Weweldeniya, hotel in Kegalle

Located within 40 km of Leisure World and 40 km of St Anthony's Church, Leisure Living Resort-Weweldeniya offers rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Weweldeniya Pahalagama.

We booked this place on the day we stayed and what a gem of a find! The facilities were very comfortable. Very clean room and bathroom with a semi outdoor shower. My kids loved the shower heads! The breakfast cooked was beautiful. We had the traditional Sri Lankan breakfast of string hoppers and curries and it was devine. Then my children had fruit & French toast. The son or manager then showed us around their wonderful garden. My children absolutely adored it and were so excited to see monkeys on our way out.

Hotel Yelona, hotel in Kegalle

Boasting river views, Hotel Yelona features accommodation with a garden and a balcony, around 28 km from Kandy Royal Botanic Gardens.

What a lovely warm welcome. Dunisha not only runs a wonderfully positioned hotel (right beside a river with wild monkeys passing through each morning) but he cooks too! The food he made for us was personalised, creative and delicious. Very delicious! Our room was very comfortable and anything we wanted he was happy to provide. If we passed through the area again, we'd definitely stay there. Very affordable accommodation and cheap but exceptional dinner. Great value for money!

    The perfect pit stop. We are an English family, children 18 16 14. We stayed one night to break our journey back to Colombo airport. The hosting was exceptional . A very spacious and well maintained house. Very well looked after - nothing too much. Delicious fruit from the garden. Very clean, comfortable and large rooms.

    Chandra was an amazing host. We arrived quite late and he made sure he was still there to great us. The room was lovely and spacious and we were treated to some wonderful fruit in the morning from the garden, which he was kind enough to guide us around in the morning

    Nice accommodation, with a kind German-speaking host. He showed us the plants of his garden and also gave us a bag of fresh star fruits from the garden as snacks when we left.

    A very clean, quiet and a comfortable place. Manori Perera was very helpful and gave information about close by shops and where to buy food. She was very friendly and prepared very tasty meals for us. My mum enjoyed her mango curry and said it is one of the best. We definitely will stay there again when we go to Kegalle.
