LYING AT THE HEART OF SRI LANKA'S OLD HILL CAPITAL KANDY
is
a modern hotel, offering all the comforts of five star hospitality.
The
Mahaweli river (the longest in Sri Lanka), running along the length
of the hotel, creates a unique picture of sublime beauty. The
hotel exudes opulence and grandeur. Every corner offers fresh
delights for weary eyes, from the palatial lobby with its waterfall
to private corners, set aside as mini lounge areas to gaze at
the wonder just beyond. Bouquets of flowers spring up everywhere,
creating a colourful symphony.
Absolute
comfort and contentment is offered to the guest, from the truly
magical piped music that follows you everywhere you go, to the
luxurious pool that curves its way around the bedrock on which
the hotel rests.
Local
and in-house sports and entertainment include tennis, squash,
gymnasium, a games room, golf (at the neighbou ring Victoria Golf
Club), and an Ayurvedic Center (with in-house doctor and traditional
sauna). The hotel also makes arrangements for special excursions
to other places of interest, with a picnic lunch, guide and transport
included.
There
is also a forest trek planned through some jungle adjoining the
hotel, which eventually leads to the beautifully laid out Eco
Park at the far corner of the premises. This also doubles into
a BBQ spot on occasion.
If
you would rather dine indoors, there is the 'Far Pavilion' restaurant,
a 24 hour coffee shop and two bars, with one by the pool.
Rooms
are equally sumptuous, with all having satelite television with
MATV, mini bar, a safety deposit box, twenty-four hour room service
and same day laundry service. The hotel also boasts of two suites
& an executive floor. The entire 4th floor has been designated
a non-smoking area. Most rooms also have their own private balcony
overlooking either the river or the lush mountain range behind
the hotel.
