The hotel's own Restaurant serves international dishes and beverages, a convenient option right on site. For nearby dining, Lyon's Cafe offers Sri Lankan and Western dishes, while Eat-Me Restaurant and Chutie Restaurant provide local specialties. Cool Corner is known for its roti, and Five Five Nine Restaurant has a warm ambiance. Aloy Restaurant and Ceilao Gosto serve traditional Sri Lankan meals, with Flower Song Restaurant and Frutah offering lighter fare and sweets. Royal Food Court, about a 17-minute stroll away, is another choice for a meal.
The hotel sits on Katugastota Road, a practical area with Mawilmada Junction right at the doorstep and shops like Arpico Super Centre, Munasinghe Stores, and Stop N Shop within a short walk. The neighborhood is residential and local, with the Mawilmada Railway Station just 240 meters away for easy connections. Kandy's main sights, such as Sri Dalada Maligawa and the Sacred City, are about 3 kilometers off, so you are close enough to reach them quickly by tuk-tuk or bus. The area feels calm and everyday, a good spot to experience local life while staying near the city's highlights.
From Victoria Reservoir SPB airport, the hotel is about a 5-minute drive, so a taxi or pre-booked transfer is the simplest way. If you arrive by train, Mawilmada Railway Station is just 240 meters from the hotel, an easy short walk. Kandy Railway Station is about 3.4 km away, and Mahaiyawa Railway Station is 2.4 km, so a taxi or tuk-tuk from either is quick. The Anthony's Convent bus stop is a 5-minute walk, and Mawilmada Junction is under 100 meters, giving you local bus options. For a direct route, the Kandy-Colombo Intercity Bus Station is nearby with frequent services.
In the evening, you can dine at the hotel's own Restaurant, which serves international dishes and beverages. Nearby, Lyon's Cafe, Eat-Me Restaurant, Chutie Restaurant, Cool Corner, Five Five Nine Restaurant, Aloy Restaurant, Ceilao Gosto, Flower Song Restaurant, and Frutah offer a range of local and Western options. For a cultural touch, the Bahiravokanda Vihara Buddha Statue is about 2.5 km away, and the Asgiriya Maha Vihara is 2.2 km from the hotel, both worth a visit after dark. The Kandy Viewpoint, 3.4 km away, provides a scenic spot to enjoy the city lights. You can also join the Explore Kandy City Tour by Tuk Tuk for an evening ride around town.
Selene City Hotel is a practical base for exploring Kandy, with the city's main sights a short drive away. Udawatta Kele Sanctuary is 2.6 km, Sri Dalada Maligawa and the Sacred City of Kandy are 3.0 km, and Royal Palace Park is 3.2 km from the hotel. Kandy Viewpoint and Arthur's Seat View Point are both around 3.5 km, so you can reach them with a quick tuk-tuk or taxi ride. For farther attractions like the Ceylon Tea Museum and Hanthana International Bird Park, both 5.5 km away, plan a longer trip. The hotel's own restaurant offers meals on site, and Mawilmada Junction is less than 100 m away for easy transport connections.
