Great find!

This boutique hotel was perfect for our overnight stay in Kandy. Note that this hotel is not in a central location, but is in what appears to be an upscale neighbourhood close to the river. Everything about the hotel appears to be new and modern with great en-suite bathrooms and comfortable beds. Currently no onsite restaurant, but food can easily be ordered in by the very friendly staff. Would highly recommend for those looking for a quiet place to stay.

There are different common resting area, spacious & well decorated. Friendly & smiley staff. Our TV was not working the first night but it was fixed the next day. Location is a bit far from Kandy city but it is quite and comfy. The bed is also comfy but there is noise when turning on the bed! Overall, very good and recommended!

6/10 Good

The house manager changes almost everyday and so is the service level. We stayed for 3 nights and the first senior manager was excellent to accommodate our needs, including the thermometer that I needed to check my fever. The second manager had difficulty to understand English first of all. We were shown first to the room on the 1st floor. There was construction going on in the backyard which was noisy. So, we asked to change the room after half an hour. The new room on the 2nd floor was good to avoid the noise but the shower was weak. It is located about 20 minutes to the city centre in a quite residential area. It is quiet and peaceful but getting around is difficult without a hailing app. Make sure to download PickMe and activate it before leaving your home. We forgot to do that and it was a pain to get around.

2/10 Poor

Management were appallingly rude and refused to acknowledge our cancellation of a second night made prior to our arrival and confirmed by them at the time. He completely disregarded the cancellation policy written on Expedia and refused to refund our payment. He ended up throwing a ruppee note equivalent to 1/3 of what we were owed to ‘make us go away’.Expedia have been essentially uncontactable with regard to this discrepancy between what is written on Expedia and what management says sending automated email responses to our attempt to contact them. I would advise strongly against booking Rivera Residence and against believing cancellation policies outlined by Expedia

Lovely hotel with great staff. Only downside is that the hotel is a fair way to the city centre so have to rely on tuk tuks or taxis. Would highly recommend.

Highly recommend!

Fabulous breakfast and excellent service！ Hotel is clean with enough facilities in the room. Hotel staff are friendly, helpful and considerate. Breakfast was rich with many items! A fruit platter with a variety of fruits was one of the items for the breakfast. On one day, I mentioned that I like papaya only. Then on the next day, I was surprised that they remembered it and prepared a whole plate of papaya to me! That was so warm indeed! Special thanks :)

Great place!

Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The hotel is full of character and the room was very comfy. Amazing breakfast. They also let us use the microwave to make popcorn :) A little bit out of Kandy but affordable tuk tuks into the city.

Feels like home

The rivora hotel is just outside Kandy but you can reach everything easily by tuktuk or taxi. The area is very quiet, so you can relax after a busy day. The room was super clean and the staff extremly helpful and friendly. We stayed for 3 nights and I wish we could have stayed longer!

Nice hotel, but not given the room we payed for!

Nice hotel, little out of the town. Would need a tuk tuk or private driver to get into the town. Clean and comfortable hotel. Only down side was we booked and payed for a room with a Mountain View only to be put in a room on the ground floor behind reception with a view of a full height wire fence. When asked about the room we had booked we were told no rooms had a Mountain View, only to find out the following morning that there is a room with a Mountain View.

Great rooms very clean and comfortable, staff were also very welcoming and helpful. We had a wonderful stay, the hotel is located in a quiet residential area which was lovely and relaxing, nice to be a little bit outside the hussle and bustle of the city centre.
