Beautiful view from my balcony. My room was clean on arrival and facilities were adequate for my needs. Breakfast and evening meals were good and my host, the manager, and his staff were all friendly and keen to please.

Perhaps a little too inaccessible in its location away from town for Pick me and Uber drivers. Would have liked at least one more usable socket in the room as I had to share the kettle with my charger and the mosquito deterrent.

It's a very very charming boutique hotel. It has an Italian design. The manager speaks good English and knows what hospitality is. He organised everything for us, was genuine interested and made us feel very welcome. The breakfast is also good. And it's easy in this hotel to also meet other travellers (with families). The views from the hotel are stunning, it's a little bit out of the city center but therefore also nice and quiet.

What a view over the city of Kandy, this, combined with the knowledgeable host is all we needed to have two pleasant days. The staff is very helpful, the food wonderful and the room we had spacious for the five of us.

The spectacular view is because of how high the hotel is situated. It is therefore nearly impossible to walk to any destination and a tuk tuk ride is almost scary if you're from a flat country.

The staff were amazing! So nice and helpful. The room was big and exactly as advertised. We loved the balcony to watch the sunset. The kids loved cooling off in the pool after a long day. It’s definitely an interesting drive up the hill from Kandy but so worth it for the views. The food was excellent! It is cash only so just make sure you bring enough ahead of time. Definitely recommend this hotel!

The property was tucked up in the hills away from the smoggy town. The view was over the valley and it was nestled deep in nature.. the staff were all so friendly and accommodating even letting us use the kitchen…

My only fault was the pillows smelt a little damp but on the grand scale of things this was extremely minor.

The location is away from the hustle & bustle of Kandy. The host met us on arrival and was courteous throughout our short overnight stay. The food served at dinner and breakfast was of a good standard and plenty.

The shower in our room was only a trickle (water pressure?) and cold only.

Very lovely hotel, very peaceful, good view overlooking the pool and mountains. Clean. Friendly staff. Breakfast was great.

Incline getting up to the hotel, tuktuk struggled alittle bit. Finding the hotel on locations was difficult. Cannot really order food from pickme. Hotel has a restaurant.

The Change Hotel was exactly what we were looking for. a locally run hotel with incredible views from its hilltop location. Our family room slept 2 adults and 2 children comfortably with an amazing view of the valley and mountains surrounding the area. There is a swimming pool perfect for a dip after a hot day sightseeing. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Highly recommend and would come back.

Great atmosphere, family run by super nice people, great value for money, beautiful view from the balcony, in the city but hidden in the jungle hills with wildlife and tropical greenery, very nicely designed by the owner, rustic with a good taste, authentic, nice food with a home made feeling (ask if you want other things than in the menu), nice little pool, chilling on the terrace or the dining area open to the garden

We don’t mind not having the room cleaned daily, but could do little fresh up when somebody is staying longer (we stayed 4 nights) - perhaps people usually stay shorter
