Stayed at Citadel Hotel - Kandy, Sri Lanka.

From this hotel we were close to the Pinnewala Elephant reserve, great for families to see these amazing creatures close up. Central Kandy was very accessible with lots of interesting sights and walks. We visited a tea plantation and factory nearby which was very informative and a Batik factory and shop. On the Kandy to Colombo road on the way back we stopped at one of the Spice plantations (no.100) which we toured with a Guide, had a complimentary massage with some of their products and obviously bombarded with sales talk to buy some (quite) expensive products.

Kandy is a great base for further travels in the hill country. We also enjoyed Nuwarra Eliya, and some top spots to stay there as well, such as St. Andrews Hotel. Easiest to hire a guide & car/van when you're heading out to visit other locations around Kandy.

Stayed at Suisse, Hotel - Kandy, Sri Lanka.

Kandy is a nice location to leave for the hill country. Definitely take the train to Ella if you want a great experience. Old locomotives, open windows, standing out the door and spectacular views. On top of that it takes just about the same amount of time getting anywhere by car or bus due to the winding roads.

Kandy is quite beautiful and there are several things to see & do around the area. We had a hired car & driver from Colombo for a reasonable rate.
