    A nice, family owned little home stay, well situated in a very quiet area, but not far from the city (5min by tuktuk). Very clean and modern bathroom, with an excellent hot shower. The host is very helpful to organize tours in the area and they offer laundry service as well. A good place to stay!

    There were mosquitoes in the room and a cockroach in the bathroom. You needed to take off the shoes while entering the house.

    The room was clean. The owner was very friendly and supportive. He gave us tips regarding Nuwara Eliya restaurants and visiting places. There was hair dryer and blanket for the cold at night.

    The whole place, starting with the host Ruwan, is just delightful. Room was super comfy, well laid out with a beautiful glass enclosed outside area off the room which would be wonderful in winter. Bathroom was good, bed was comfy and room was a good size, and nothing was too much trouble for Ruwan. It felt like I was staying at a friends house. I would definitely stay there again and recommend it highly as a place to stay in Nuwara Eliya.

    Lovely place among paths of tea plantations, very quiet, very serene with nice and helpful hosts. Recommended for those who appreciates being far away from noise and traffic. Simple but tasty Lankan breakfast and dinner if ordered.

    This is really a great place to stay in Nuwara Eliya. The rooms are in the family house, and you stay with a super friendly family with the sweetest child. The host was very helpful with all questions and also rented us a scooter for a good price. The rooms are well equipped, with luxurious bathrooms and very comfy beds. The breakfast was also very good.

    Very comfortable beds(best we have had so far in Sri Lanka!), very clean. Lovely place and lovely views from the place. Accomodation was a 5 minute tuktuk or 20 min walk to most places which was ideal! Staff were lovely and very helpful. Would stay again!

    The place is very clean and neat, we had fresh flowers in the room. The towels and bed linen are clean and feel nice and fresh. The location is up the hill, not close to the city centre, but very close to tea plantations and a nice 10 min road to Gregory lake. The owner is very kind and made sure to extend our stay when we requested, as well as arrange tuk-tuks whenever we needed one. Overall one of the best stays in Sri Lanka so far, highly reccommend.

    The rooms and floors are quite cold, but there’s blankets and flip flops which can be used.

    We really enjoyed our stay here, the overview over the tea plantations and mountains are nice (unfortunately there’s a big tower on the lawn, but it was okay for us). The bed is comfy and the bathroom is good and spacious. The staff here are really nice, very sweet and helpful. They made us sandwiches one morning we left to the national park, which was really nice.

    The staff is very nice, welcoming and ready to help with anything we needed. For us it was perfect, but if you don’t like cold weather, better ask for an extra blanket :) The place itself was clean, nice with clean towels. All in all, it was perfect for our short stay. ☺️

    The city is quite rainy but well this is what the tea likes. The view is a bit blocked since there is a power pole in the garden.

    Really nice small stay with a kind host family. Really clean room and great bathroom with plenty of hot water. After a rainy day we enjoyed a warm shower. The host also helped us and organized laundry for us and we could use the blender and fridge of the family. Also great location to take a walk im the tea plantation. Its next by.

    Just to mention that the heater is not included, so you need to pay extra if you need it during the stay.

    Owner was nice and made sure we had everything we needed. Room was clean and spacious, good bathroom. Located close to the Gregory lake.

    Nothing. Everything was perfect.

    We absolutely loved our stay. The host was so gracious and kind, the room was very clean and cozy. We also had the opportunity to go on an excursion with the host, who organized everything perfectly for us and was also an excellent driver. A true gem in Nuwara Elyia. A bit secluded from the hustle and bustle of the downtown area, which we loved. Would 100% recommend it!
