3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012 NEW

I stayed two nights here and quickly tired of the LONG walk to my room in the annex wing. It's easily 300 metres across an elevated pedway from the main lobby to rooms in the two wings, then usually a hike up the stairs as tiny elevators seemed to be continually tied up. By the end of my first day,... More

Had a wonderful 2 nights stay at The Earls Regency at Kandy Sri Lanka in December 2011. Though the property is 4-5 kms away from Kandy City Centre, the location of the hotel was excellent. Situated amidst the hills, it offered excellent view of both the river flowing close by and the hills. Great food and good service. More

First of all, this is not a 5 star hotel. The travel agencies recommend it highly but this is far from a 5 star and not worth booking at all. Only the main building is swanky, but the majority of the rooms are available in the two new wings that are worse than a local inn. To top it, the... More

This was the second hotel we stayed in at Srilanka and after staying in 6 different hotels in Srilanka, I think that this one is the best hotel in Srilanka outside Colombo. This hotel is certainly good either if you are staying for one night or for a week. The first impression when we entered the Hotel Lobby was great.... More

rom here we made our way down to Kandy, the famous location of the Tooth Temple or Sri Dalada Maligawa, where what is believed to be a tooth of the Buddha is preserved and ardently revered. Here we stayed in the Earls Regency Hotel overlooking the picturesque Kandy Lake. The hotel is situated on a perfect vantage point with fantastic... More

We are a family of five , 3 adutls and two small kids, my mother in-law aged 65. After a day long sight seeing starting from Nuwara Eliya in the morning we reached the Earls Regency in Kandy at 7.30p.m. We booked the rooms atleast 20 days ahead and requested for adjacent rooms. I didn't understand why they made us... More

We treated ourselves to a Christmas eve buffet dinner and much like any big hotel anywhere, the regency put on its best festive show. The difference however was in the quality and choice of food on offer. It was plainly put, 'awesome'! There was everything from soups to oysters, hand built and expertly tossed salads made in front of our... More
