🇱🇰 Sri Lanka – Kandy MYST by Cinnamon

7 Nights / 8 Days | Bed & Breakfast Basis

Discover the Soul of Sri Lanka in the Hill Capital

Nestled amidst misty mountains and overlooking the Mahaweli River, MYST by Cinnamon (formerly Cinnamon Citadel) redefines elegance in Sri Lanka’s cultural heart.

This 5★ property blends contemporary design with Kandyan artistry — a haven of tranquillity where rich heritage and nature coexist in perfect harmony.


The Setting – Kandy’s Riverside Retreat

Just a short drive from the Temple of the Tooth Relic, the hotel offers a serene escape from the city bustle.

Wake up to birdsong, mist rolling over the hills, and the river gliding past your balcony. Relax by the infinity pool, wander through landscaped gardens, or take a sunset stroll along the riverbank.

Kandy’s central location makes MYST by Cinnamon an ideal base for exploring the hill country and its cultural treasures.
