Boasting a 24-hour front desk, this property also provides guests with a children's playground. There is a sun terrace and guests can make use of free WiFi and free private parking. Our stay at SHERIN 1892 was like stepping into a colonial-style time capsule. The hotel's design made us feel like we were sleeping in a living museum, surrounded by history. Asila and his wife's warm welcome added a personal touch to the experience. The fresh and delicious food was a treat for the taste buds. Whenever we needed guidance for sightseeing, they went above and beyond to ensure we had a happy and memorable time. SHERIN 1892 is more than just a hotel; it's an immersive journey into the past with exceptional hospitality. We look forward to returning soon.

The setting of the two line rooms is stunning, from the beautiful sunrises to the peaceful evenings in the valley. Thank you Meena for your warmth, effort, care and culinary brilliance - we won’t forget it!

We loved our stay at this guesthouse. The room and the bed were very big and spacious. From the window, we could admire an amazing view. There was a hot shower and good wifi, maybe not strong enough for video calls but still okay. The guesthouse is located a bit up on the hill and took 15 minutes to reach the town. The host was amazing; she was very nice and sweet, helping us with all our requests. I really suggest this place!

Hill Safari - Tea Estate Villa

Ohiya

Located in Ohiya, surrounded by mountains in the Horton Plains Range, Hill Safari - Tea Estate Villa mainly serves Sri Lankan cuisine. It features a shared lounge area surrounded by tea estates/mountains. The property boasts an excellent location for hiking and trekking. We loved the location and the possibilities to see Sri Lanka village and tea hill life. The hosts were incredibly helpful, met our every wish and provided delicious SL food. We loved our 3 night stay in the upstairs room with a spectacular view and balcony. Watching the mist come in and the sunset made up for the daily afternoon rain. If you are looking for a lush, green bit of solitude Hill Safari can be your place. Every morning we were woken by the beautiful music/chants from the village temple. We did not go to Horton Plains or Worlds End, there is plenty of adventure right at the doorstep. Thank you for making our stay memorable.
