Shirin1892 is a lovely homestay surrounded by idyllic mountains and tea plantations. It's located about a 15 minute walk from the centre of Nuwara Eliya and 10 minute walk to Gregory Lake. The host, Asela is so friendly, helpful and accomodating and told us lots of stories and history about Nuwara Eliya and his family home. Our room was very big and comfortable and we had thick blankets for the colder nights. The home was like stepping back in time and it was so interesting to see the contrast of architecture, decor etc to homes in the rest of Sri Lanka. Thanks again to Asela and his family for a wonderful stay 🙏🏼

The spacious villa comes with a cable flat-screen TV. Guests can enjoy an ambient stay in their soundproof room with parquet floors and a fireplace. For added privacy, the accommodation features a private entrance.

One of the best hotels in this little England like area. You will feel overdose nature here. Rooms are spacious, well maintained and clean. Price wise it is for sure not cheap, however for the same quality cottages you will have to stay in much expensive ones. Kind staff.

Conveniently situated in Nuwara Eliya, La Grande Villa provides express check-in and check-out and free private parking. Conveniently located in the Nuwara Eliya City Centre district, this villa offers a garden, as well as a hot tub. Free WiFi is available throughout the property, as well as a terrace and a restaurant. The property also offers accommodation for disabled guests.

Everything here is perfect, it was quite possibly the best place we have stayed in Sri Lanka and that includes places like the Heritance Kandalama which was dramatically more expensive. The property: Perfectly manicured and beautiful gardens with flowers everywhere. The building is beautiful with detailed wood finishing on all surfaces except the floor which is covered in beautiful plush carpeting which contributes to reduced noise from people walking around. All guests and staff remove their shoes and wear provided slippers around the property to ensure the floors are nice and clean. There’s also a pool table in the lobby. The room: A+ comfortable bed with down duvet, crisp sheets and more pillows than Martha Stewart would have on her bed - with a variety of thickness and firmness so anyone’s preference will be met. Super clean from top to bottom, excellent bathroom and shower with stone finishing and a jacuzzi tub which we used and it worked well. Television with Comedy Central so that made me happy at night. Clean glasses, coffee, tea, and one of the few rooms in Sri Lanka with a working refrigerator that had a small freezer for ice which was readily available from the hotel. Breakfast: We had the western and it was fantastic. I’m sure the Sri Lankan breakfast would be even better. Too much food though. Location: walking distance to the town center but far enough that it was very quiet at night and minimal tuktuk noise in the morning. Staff: attentive, kind, service oriented and professional - we have found this to be standard throughout Sri Lanka but it was even better here.

This 1-star hotel offers room service and a 24-hour front desk. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a car rental service is also available.

The property is solidly built. The cold wind was howling around the whole night but the building withstood all the battering without a complaint. The trees all round were getting huge battering. The rooms were spacious and bathrooms were modern with some nice lighting. The wooden floors were sparkling clean and the staff would have taken tremendous amount of efforts to keep it that way
