Amaya Group is the former Connaissance Hotels created by famous hotelier Mr. Chandra Wickramasinghe and others.

If you want to invest in Amaya buy CONN.N.

Amaya Lake is the former Culture Club in Dambulla.
Kandy Resort is Amaya Hills.

Re-banding of our hotel chains happened 2-3 yeras ago.

Chaaya, Cinnamon, Amaya, Citrus ... .... all were well known hotels in different identities years ago.

----- more about CONNaissance ---

Connaissance Holdings Ltd (Connaissance de Ceylan) was incorporated as a private limited liability company in 1982. The company was converted to a Public Company in 1994.

This Company was incorporated 3 decades ago mainly for the purpose of handling the inbound travel.

Connaissance enjoys immense popularity in the tourist markets of Europe, especially France, where it caters to over 30% of the inbound French tourists to Sri Lanka.

After 3 decades, the competitive advantage of the Company is derived by:
* its own chain of hotels.
* its fleet of motor vehicles.
* provision of airline - ticketing services.
