    Wonderful Stay in Nuwara Eliya

    The place has few amenities and is outside town. It's best to have your own car/driver. The bathroom is not as nice as most city hotels, but everything works. It's a good place to spend the night if you are driving through the area.

    The staff is very friendly - always checking if we are enjoying our room and meals and happy to go above and beyond to help us. We had a great dinner at a reasonable price and also a delightful breakfast.

    The staff was very welcoming and kind. Our breakfasts were so good we decided to stay for dinner and we were not disappointed! The bedroom has high ceilings and a private balcony where we enjoyed hot tea and beautiful views. Thank you for hosting us!

    This is a beautiful property in a great location in Nuwara-Eliya. The staff are absolutely incredible - so kind, helpful and polite. The breakfast is delicious and plentiful. The rooms are clean and comfortable and they also have driver's accommodation which was such a bonus for us. There is also ample parking for vehicles. We had such a great stay - thank you to all the staff who made us feel so welcome!

    Just have in mind the location, because it's a tiny road on a hill and it's not easy to get there, especially when it's dark.

    It's a really nice British style villa on a hill. The owner is very friendly and welcoming person, we had a great talk over dinner with him. He provided everything we needed, dinner and breakfast were good as well.

    The WiFi constantly dropped out and we were without wifi most nights. The walls between the rooms are quite thin and you can hear almost everything, even what’s happening downstairs.

    The property is clean, spacious and the amenities are modern. It’s a quaint hotel with minimal rooms. The staff are friendly, accommodating and want to provide you with whatever you need to make your stay a good one. Breakfast is by order and whatever changes you require they arrange. The rooms are large, the bathroom has a shower and the hot water and pressure are good. The owner and main guy was beyond helpful and extremely nice 😊

    Nusha, the owner, couldn’t have been more helpful and welcoming. He sorted everything we asked him for, we were travelling with a 2 year old and he was so helpful with her! The location is abit out of the town centre but nice and quiet but easy to get everywhere from.

    The property is situated on a rather steep hill. For us it wasn’t a problem at all since we were with a driver, but the location might need to be considered depending on your mode of transportation.

    The food was so delicious and freshly prepared for us upon our order on arrival. The staff was extremely friendly and hospitable, we felt so welcome and comfortable here! The room was also spacious, clean and very comfy. We wanted to head off very early in the morning for a hike and they prepared us our breakfast to go (at 5am!). And they even offered free accommodation and food for our tour guide which we really appreciated!
