Kings Pavilion is a boutique hotel, set outside the town of Kandy in Central Sri Lanka. Situated on a hill overlooking the lush valley below, it offers a serene oasis with great vistas of the Hunnasgiriya and Knuckles mountain ranges. Spread across 3-acres of luscious gardens in the residential area in the suburbs of Kandy, this resort offers a perfect base from which to explore the historic Kandy town and the fascinating region of Sri Lanka's Cultural Triangle.
Spread across its manicured gardens, Kings Pavilion houses just 9 rooms and suites. All are spacious in size and designed in contemporary Sri Lankan style with Kandyan arts, with large windows opening out to view the surrounding mountains. Honeymooners may like to upgrade to the King Suite for a more luxurious experience while families will prefer the Queen Suite, which has ample space for two double beds and a separate living space.
Meals are served in the large ground floor veranda, offering a la carte options with a great range of both international and local dishes. There is a small infinity pool overlooking the valley and a spa, complete with a sauna and steam room (for two people). It also offers yoga classes and complimentary bicycles and painting facilities. Kings Pavilion can arrange private guided tours to Kandy town that may include Temple of the Sacred Tooth, Kandy Lake and the Knuckles range.

When to go Sri Lanka is a year-round destination with consistently warm temperatures and lots of sunshine. However, it barely gets unbearably hot in the Hill Country. The months of December to April are probably the best time to visit, when days are warm (around 28C) with cool nights. During the monsoon season from October to December you can expect heavy downpours. June to September are the driest months.
