Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Trees offers modern and luxurious accommodations with breathtaking views, particularly from the rooftop pool, which is a highlight for many guests, especially at sunset. Its location is convenient for exploring Kandy, being within walking distance of the lake, main temples and the city center, although the return journey involves a steep uphill walk. Some guests have noted that the food quality didn't meet expectations on every occasion. Rooms are spacious and some even feature kitchens and living areas.

the hotel included a rooftop pool. i used it and found it sufficiently large for doing laps. the provided towels were a plus. the hotel offers excellent views of the surrounding area.

the bathroom had a noticeable sewage smell in the mornings. the bathroom fan emitted an irritating noise. it turned on and off every 20 seconds. this made the space uncomfortable.

I appreciated the modern design. It felt very stylish. my room had a good size, and i loved that i saw monkeys from the balcony. the pool table was nice (i enjoyed some relaxing evenings there). the cocktails were also well-prepared.

the hotel didn't have a liquor license, so no alcohol was available.
