I stayed in Heritance Kandalama for two days. This was the most wonderful experience that I've ever had! Great view of lake and Lion's Rock, incredible taste and kinds of buffet, warm and polite attitude of staff... all of these things made me really relaxed and energetic. Bawa's design and infinity pool are also great. I really recommend you to stay here!

The building’s design is fantastic and the main reason we wanted to stay there. It was built in 1994 and in parts it is starting to show its age. The food selection for dinner and breakfast was good and the taste was fantastic. The staff was friendly and helpful. I recommend taking the Bawa Tour to learn about the building. Another tip if you are a coffee drinker is to get an expresso or a coffee directly from the machine. The coffee from the jug from the food server is pretty weak.
Hotel isn't new but didn't matter. View from room, great staff and good buffet made up for it. Loved it.

This is NOT 5*, 4 at best. this is what I was expecting with the other reviews, cost etc.
it’s a great setting, built into the rock and stunning views to Sigiriya and Kandalama lake.
There are 20 broken loungers to share among 100’s of guests. The bar need some ambient lighting and comfy chairs to get some atmosphere. The buffet feels very canteen like, and getting a drink seemed to take half your meal time. Even though there are lots of staff around chatting. The room we had a suite our son on a put up in the lounge area, our bed but nothing other than a bench . Draws don’t shut, the bed and side tables mean you can’t open the safe cupboard. No plug sockets and the ones we found so close to the floor plugs won’t go in. Balcony is not worth it as monkeys are there. Shower overlooking the garden was nice ( after we asked for it to be cleaned so it splayed down which was done immediately) . Mini bar was a joke and filthy. Daily call to check everything was ok but hard to address the whole lot !! Very over rated and not value for money.
Beautiful property, a masterpiece by Geoffrey Bawa, architecture hidden and surrounded by nature. Special thanks to Nalinda for the amazing architectural tour, and bird watching tour…was very lucky to spot an elephant by the lake which was a very rare occurrence!

Although this is an excellent review I have to say I was a bit surprised at the size of the pools. I like to swim laps but the pools were smaller than I'd thought. My fault, of course (lack of blueprints!). One pool seems to have been given over to the monkeys (lucky them!) which was interesting. But perhaps it was seasonal? Anyway, if you're expecting to swim laps lower those expectations and just enjoy the spectacular view from the infinity perspective of the pool....

Amazing design of hotel that blends in to the beautiful forest and lake landscape. A truly amazing piece of architecture. The staff, food and facilities are top notch.
