“A nice Family Retreat”

Reviewed 27 March 2013

Me and my two kids stayed at Royal Tourist Lodge almost 1 year ago. I think my children enjoyed the garden more than anything. As for me, my job as a single mother was greatly reduced because of the friendly advise and help I got from the owners. They were kind in pointing out exactly how I could make the... More

“Professional to the dot!”

Though this is my first review on TripAdvisor, I have frequented Sri Lanka before (in 2010). What I loved about Royal Tourist Lodge was their professionalism. When I booked online, I received a personal reply within 1 day and every little question I asked was promptly replied to. This sort of personal communication is extremely helpful when it comes to...

“Peaceful and Convenient”

Reviewed 24 March 2013

I stayed in the Royal Tourist Lodge for 2 nights during my visit to Kandy. The place is extremely convenient as it is close to the Temple of Truth and the beautiful Kandy Lake. On the second day I even managed to include a walk around the lake early in the morning. The bedrooms are comfortable and the food is... More

“if you brand yourself old fashioned”

Reviewed 10 February 2013

the owner of Royal tourist lodge should be listed as "must see in Kandy" too. He is "the captain" of this hotel as well as his big family tree. If you want to stay in a nice (much more than cozy) and lake-front hotel while experiencing old fashioned Kandy lifestyle, this is your best choice. they have 3 kinds of... More
