Media Review
Lonely Planet , Feb 2009
Designer chic rooms in chocolate tones and grey slate incorporate a river side location with a breezy lobby and poolside bar at one of Kandy’s nicest package-tour resorts. Come for lunch and use the pool…even if you’re not staying here.
Rough Guide to Sri Lanka, , Nov 2006
Occupying an attractive perch above the Mahaweli Ganga (River), this low-rise four star is the best value – and perhaps also the best looking of the big hotels around Kandy, with spacious and stylish rooms….a large pool and Ayurveda centre
the Bradt Travel Guide, Second Edition , Sep 2005
The Citadel (Chaaya Citadel) itself, is surrounded by paddyfields, is built on the bank of the Mahaweli River, on an open plan allowing a breeze to waft through the building. The reception lobby leads to the bar, which is open to the swimming pool with the river flowing in the background.
