Fantastic hotel seemingly dropped into Kegalle from another part of the world. This is certainly only somewhere to day trip to, but if you are going to stay over, then this hotel should be your only choice.

山上的老建築，很安靜，老派西式風格。房間層高挑高超4米，舊式傢俱，設施現代。餐廳很漂亮，服務好，食物味道不錯。

It's a very cozy banglow up the hills along the main road, convenient yet quite. the staff there is also welcoming to the guests.
The restaurant manager who work in Heritance Kandalama before is so kind to refer us to his former friends in Kandalama when he knew our next destination is there.
The hotel manager also gave us a tour about the hotel, telling interesting history and story of this facility, making this stay more delightful.

We stayed here for one night during our Sri Lankan adventure. It is truly an oasis atop of a mountain in Kegalle. Beautiful grounds. Staff were very nice. The room was spacious and as the title states, in all of our hotels, this bed was the comfiest. We had a very quiet and enjoyable rest. Dinner and breakfast were nice; good options for all. I would definitely recommend this hotel. The only thing we didn’t love was that the shower has no enclosure and so the floor and sink got wet but this was no deterrent.
