Holidays to Kandy

Looking to escape the 9-5 and head off somewhere a little more exciting for a while? We reckon you’ll be bowled over by Kandy. Sitting pretty in Central Province, it’s one of our favourite places in Sri Lanka.

Most people tend to go to Kandy for 2 days, and they particularly like jetting off in April. May has proved itself the least popular time to travel – but going in the low season does have some plus points, like littler crowds and bigger bargains.

Once you’ve decided when to go, you need to pick a place to stay. If you like taking your lead from others, you might find it interesting to know that most of our customers go for 4-star accommodation, which will set you back around £47.84 a night, while Ozo Kandy, Grand Kandyan Hotel, Queens Hotel, Cinnamon Citadel Kandy and Golden Crown Kandy Hotel reign supreme as the most-booked hotels in Kandy.

But there’s no need to copy everyone else – we’ll sort you something that’s right for you. If it’s a three-star hotel you’re after, we can find you somewhere for as little as £25 a night, although most places are closer to £25. For a four-star room, you can expect to pay £48 a night, with the cheapest option being just £31. And if you’re looking to live a life of luxury, we’ve got some five-star places on our books, too. These average out about £50 a night – but, if you’re lucky, we might be able to source something for £50.
