Seeming Lodge is located in Nuwara Eliya, within 5.2 km of Gregory Lake and 12 km of Hakgala Botanical Garden.

At the inn, each room comes with a balcony. Featuring a private bathroom with a shower and free toiletries, rooms at Seeming Lodge also offer free WiFi.

The best are the owners. They try really hard to make you comfortable and gave me a lift to the city restaurant and back too, which solved the issue of being bit of the centre. That being said, it is very quite location and I personally would not change it for the city centre. Very clean and nice room with small terrace. The breakfast was exceptional.

The property was lovely and the view from our room was amazing. We had dinner every evening at the property and some beers too! Danu, the host was excellent and took us on an incredible hike to his home village, where we drank fresh coconut milk and saw the tea fields! I’d recommend to anyone.

    Friendly staff. Location closer to the town, could walk to the Grand Hotel for dinner. We had Sri Lankan breakfast which was tasty. There was an issue with water supply in the town when we were there and the Manager worked very hard to get water to fill their tanks. Small friendly hotel.

    What a great place in Nuwara Eliya away from the crowds. The real highlight was Claude who went above and beyond to have our first night in Sri Lanka a memorable one. He prepared a wonderful dinner that was fine dining style and we ate twice in a row. We loved the rooms and high ceilings, had a very rustic feel and it was comfortable. Good hot showers as well and cosy place.

    Simple rooms with huge windows, a balcony, and wonderful views. This is our favourite guest house in Sri Lanka out of six we have stayed in so far. Also, great views from the room where you have breakfast and dinner. The guest house is run by lovely cheerful people. We wished that we had had an extra day just to chill on the balcony.

    once you arrived at the guest house you feel like a family member. the whole family welcomed us so nice and were very lovely. We enjoyed staying there because you feel like home. Breakfast and Dinner are amazing. The fire place inside the house makes your stay even better. Prepare yourself for the coolest weather in Sri Lanka. We were unprepared for the cold nights, but thats how it is in Nuwara Eliya. The view from the balcony is so beautiful.

    Spotlessly clean guest house run by a delightful family who made us very comfortable . Nothing was too much trouble and they can even cook dinner if you ask. Excellent value - rooms were spacious with a clean private bathroom. This is not luxury but it is great value and we enjoyed our stay . Strong wifi too

    A very nice small guest house, seemed 7 rooms in total. We had a mountain view room, good size, tv we didn't try, spotlessly clean with a nice sitting area on the landing shared between a few rooms. Breakfast was Sri Lankan, egg choice, lots of roti bread to taste using dhal or savoury fillings. tea, coffee. Very evident Covid compliance with washing hands to enter the house and sanitiser spray on entry. Just a ten minute walk into the town for Victoria Park or dinner etc.
