Introduction
Built on the shores of a winding river with rolling green hills beyond, Jetwing Kandy Gallery enjoys a peaceful and scenic setting barely 30 minutes from Kandy’s city centre. As with all of the Jetwing hotels, the culture of the area underpins the design: the traditional colours and patterns of Kandyan royalty lift the rooms, whilst modern metal sculptures of Kandyan dancers line the corridors. The beautiful countryside views can be enjoyed from your private balcony, the swimming pool and the restaurant, giving the sense that you are miles away from civilisation. A restful base with a wide range of facilities an easy distance from the area’s main cultural attractions.
Accommodation
There are four categories of room at Jetwing Kandy Gallery, with 26 rooms in total. Each room is spacious with a wide range of facilities and has a private balcony with sweeping views. Interconnecting rooms are available.
Deluxe Room: The four Deluxe Rooms are decorated in rich red hues in homage to the Kandyan monarchy, and are furnished with a large double or twin beds, TV, a/c, minibar and tea / coffee making facilities. The balcony is furnished with two sunbeds and the ensuite bathroom has both a shower and bathtub.
Luxury Room: The twelve Luxury Rooms are as above, but are decorated with notes of royal blue and contain two queen-sized beds. They are also on the first floor, and so have superior views from the balcony.

Kandyan Suite: The six Kandyan Suites are decorated in luxurious gold and deep yellow, and boast a separate sitting area behind an ornate wooden screen and an enormous bathtub.
