An Unforgettable Stay with Truly Exceptional Service! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My recent stay at The Golden Crown was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we arrived, we were immersed in an environment of luxury and warmth. The hotel itself is incredibly beautiful, with attention to detail in every corner. However, what truly made our stay exceptional was the world-class service from the staff. Every team member we encountered was super polite and helpful, but two individuals truly went above and beyond: Mr. Roshan and Ms. Kaveesha. Their professionalism, kindness, and willingness to help were evident in every interaction. They provided top-class customer service, anticipating our needs and ensuring every aspect of our visit was perfect. Ms. Kaveesha Gayathree's cheerful and kindful nature was a delight, and Mr. Roshan Hettiarachchi's courteous and efficient service was remarkable. Super Kindful they were! We enjoyed our time at the hotel so much, and a large part of that is thanks to them. The bottom line is that The Golden Crown is a gem—a super beautiful place powered by a team that treats guests like family. I will recommend this hotel 200% to anyone, whether traveling for business or with family. Do not miss the chance to experience this wonderful place and its fantastic staff!

I rarely write a review but this stay was beyond my expectations. I consider that this place has the best panoramic view of Kandy, which was nice to wake up in the morning. P.S. The owner of the place is a great person, who provided us with all the necessary information and service we needed.

Incredible hotel! The overall vibe of this hotel was unmatched, it was a little sanctuary in the middle of the mountains with the most amazing views, vibe and atmosphere. The staff were so incredible and helpful, working to go above and beyond to make our experience special. The food was excellent too! Amazing walks you can do, tea plantation on site, even we got a free upgrade and had the hotel infinity pool pretty much to ourselves! Would 100% recommend! Lacanta was great and super helpful too!

All five-star hotels in Kandy

Looking for a five-star hotel?

When the accommodation is just as important as the destination, a five-star stay should give that extra ‘wow’ factor as you enter the lobby. As well as offering the kind of service to make you feel like royalty, you’ll usually find highly rated on-site spas, gourmet restaurants and top-of-the-line beds you won’t want to get out of.
