10/10 Exceptional
Feb 11, 2025
Exceptional Hospitality, a perfect stay in Kandy
We had an amazing stay at UDF City Hotel! The service was outstanding—the staff genuinely cared about us and went above and beyond to make our time in Kandy special. The hotel itself is lovely, very affordable, and offers great value for money. Our room was clean and comfortable, with AC, a fan, hot water in the shower, and a TV. The WiFi was fast, which was a big plus.
The location is excellent, within walking distance of the city center. The walk was so pleasant that we never felt the need to take a TukTuk.
The hospitality here was exceptional. The owner personally took us to an elephant stable, where we had the incredible experience of feeding and bathing the elephants. After that, he showed us around the local temples and market. Later in the day, a staff member brought us to see the famous Kandy dance performance, which was fantastic.
We also mentioned that we were interested in a cooking class, and the staff immediately arranged a private Sri Lankan cooking experience at the hotel. It was an unforgettable way to learn about the local cuisine.
The owner even helped us with train tickets and accompanied us to the station to ensure everything went smoothly.
Overall, our stay was a 10/10, and we highly recommend UDF City Hotel to anyone visiting Kandy! We will be back :)
