Situated just 3.1 km from Gregory Lake, Vibe way (Hostel & Market farm) provides accommodation in Nuwara Eliya with access to a garden, a shared lounge, as well as a shared kitchen. This property offers access to a patio and free private parking. The guest house features garden views, a sun terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property.

First of all, I love the lobby and outside of the hostel. Though it's a small hostel, the garden has a wonderful green plantation including cabbage, broccoli and many more plants. They have outside benches, hammock and chairs where you can enjoy the day sunlight comfortably. The owner said that they started the hostel very recently, 3 months ago and they are slowly expanding the property. Currently, they have one dorm with 6 beds, a shared bathroom for the other two rooms as well. They have a kitchen, refrigerator, hot water shower and all the necessary facilities. Within a 10min walk, you can go to the Town centre, Parks and by bus or tuk you can easily visit lovely waterfalls and efficient tea factories. Highly recommend this hostel for anyone who's looking for a calm and quiet place in Nuwara Eliya.

Amazing location but far away from city centre and a little difficult to reach. The view and the house was very nice though. Very close to Lover’s leap waterfall, maybe 15 min walking. Good breakfast, great staff and nice room. One of the few quiet and peaceful places we’ve found in Sri Lanka!

    It's basically a Villa. It looked new.and was very clean and well maintained. It's right opposite a beautiful valley of Tea gardens.. However as you need to go down to the villa you cannot see the view. Only when you go to the road is the valley visible. Good breakfast. The host makes you comfortable and is always ready to meet your requests.

    Lovely room, which was comfortable and large. The breakfast was good with very attentive staff. All of the staff are lovely and the villa has a tuk tuk, which is very reasonably priced. They kindly washed our clothes for free and offered us tea and coffee on a few occasions with no charge. The grounds are beautiful and the location is on a very quiet street, just a 20 minute walk from the centre.

    Our stay at the Star holiday home was extremely pleasant. The accomodation itself was super clean, and cozy, in Nuwara Eliya where the climate is much cooler than the rest of the country. Not only was the stay refreshing, the owner is a sweet lady who taught us who to cook curry. This is a perfect spot to relax.

    I recently visited Reading Holiday Home and had a wonderful experience. The location was incredibly convenient, making it easy to access. One of the things I appreciated the most was the cleanliness of the place; it was impeccably maintained. Despite its convenience, it was surprisingly quiet, which made for a peaceful atmosphere. Overall, I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a hassle-free and comfortable experience.
