The Earl’s Group of Hotels, renowned for creating iconic hotels in Kandy, recently launched the Kandy City Hotel. Ceremoniously declared open by Secretary to the Ministry of Defence and Urban Development GotabhayaRajapaksa on 31 July, the brand new Kandy City Hotel has been established to provide comfortable, conveniently-located accommodation to local and foreign travellers.

The intimate 26-room hotel is only a three-minute walk away from the world-famous Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic and is a stone’s throw away from a number of the other attractions that have made the city of Kandy a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The hotel boasts its own fine dining restaurant, as well as a food court that offers diverse dining options, and a convenience store. Subanu Perera, Group Head of Business Development for the Earl’s Group of Hotels, noted, “Each of the 23 Superior Rooms and 3 Deluxe Rooms offers a range of amenities, including satellite television, free toiletries, an unlimited supply of tea and coffee, and an in-room safe. The Deluxe Rooms also have their own private balconies overlooking the historic city centre.” With the addition of the Kandy City Hotel, a budget, no-frills hotel in the heart of Kandy with top-of-the-line in-room amenities to the Group’s portfolio, the Group “Offers a complete range of hotels, from 5-star and below, meeting the needs of any traveler visiting Kandy,” Perera continued. “Although we’ve positioned the Kandy City Hotel as a ‘budget hotel’, we have not compromised when it comes to comfort and quality,” Perera affirmed.

The hotel houses a Fine Dining Restaurant and an onsite Food Court, giving both in-house and walk-in guests gastronomical variety. The Fine Dining Restaurant specialises in Chinese and Vietnamese food, while the Food Court will feature Sri Lanka, Indian and Italian cuisines, as well as juices and other beverages, in addition to a number of international fast food outlets. Designed for the discerning budget traveller, the Kandy City Hotel also provides free Wi-Fi, laundry and concierge services, and indoor games for children and the young-at-heart, as well as a host of other facilities. With the surging popularity of Sri Lanka and tourist hotspots like Kandy, the Kandy City Hotel promises to be the choice of smart travelers who demand comfort and convenience at a fair price.
