About

2in1 Kandy Hostel & Homestay is the hostel with the best view in Kandy. Wake up to the beautiful sunrise and mountain view, sometimes misty and heavenly with the surrounding clouds. At night, relax at the balcony and enjoy the view of the full moon cycle.

We welcome you to our home and hope with all our hearts that your stay will be a pleasant one. Our mission is to provide the most comfortable and cleanest accommodation for all our guests.

The name '2in1' simply means that you will get to experience both a HOSTEL and a HOME-STAY right here at our humble abode. You will be living amongst the Kandyans of Sri Lanka and we are honoured and happy to have you stay with us as long as you like.

Please let us know if you need us to arrange the tuk-tuk for you. (From bus/train station, bus fare is Rs.16 and tuktuk cost about Rs. 300-350)

Chandana and friends make you feel very welcome. They're fair and give great advice. It might be a bit away from the centre, but it is clean and accommodates your needs.

The owner is so great and he'll take you out if he has the time... most sri Lankans are friendly, don't be frightened if a few interactions seem out of the blue. Especially with this guy, he really ensures his customers are happy! I just had 1 night here, and had great fun. It's close to all the cultural hotspots and few cute dogs to play with. The owner also really keeps the property clean. Con- I would've preferred a door instead of a curtain for the dorm

I enjoyed my stay here despite being the only guest there, at the time. the dorm was nice and beds had curtains. the owner was very helpful and kind. the hostel is a bit far from the city but I rented a scooter easily to get around. I also extended my stay. there was no AC, but I slept well thanks to the fans.
