Rooms are spacious, beds are comfy, room and bathroom are very clean. Nice calm surroundings. They had special attention on our kids food. Food was good. Hot water is with good temperature. Staff is super helpful. They even attended to our special request on arranging a theewheeler at a reasonable price to see a waterfall. Super accessible from the city. Only 5min drive. We had the best value for our money.

Cozy B&B, clean, comfortable and very centric. Walkable to the city center. The staff is great. Hassi, from the hotel, arranged to show me around the places I wanted to visit and for a good rate. He was great company and safe driver. The continental breakfast is also very good and complete. Lastly, I work remote and the wifi was reliable and worked perfectly for what I needed.
All good

Large room with a front seating area. The bed was comfortable and the shower was hot. Good quiet location about 10 minute walk to the main part of town. The supermarket is a 5 minute walk the other direction. The breakfast was very good toast, omelet, mixed fruit plate, yogurt, marmalade, cake, and tea or coffee.

This property is gorgeous - reminds me of a chalet and well located. Whilst the bedrooms are humble the buildings architecture is well done and the breakfast area is particularly wholesome. What really stood however is the staff who were warm, generous, friendly and accommodating. Thank you for making us feel at home :)

The place is very special because of Haritha. It literally means plantations and he is doing so many nice indoor plants projects apart from doing room services. The hotel is clean, quiet, and close to the centre. We stayed in 3 different places in Nuwara Eliya, and for the last few years, maybe few dozens. So far, the best place. We stayed in their apartment.

Responsive and a very helpful staff! Great breakfast!Walkable distance to main spots of Nuwara Eliya. Everything was clean and if anything was needed, staff quickly provided that for us. We went to Horton plains at 5:30 in the morning and had our breakfast to go. Overall, it was both a great experience and pleasure!

The best thing about this property was the manager Hasi he is so humble soft spoken and good that it will fill you with warmth despite the cool weather there. He is a gem of a person and you just have to ask it, he has solutions for your every problem, be it stay, food, travel, pick up, or rest and amenities he has them all covered. The property is pretty well looked after, good location.

Small hotel, with comfortable bed & enough blankets! The breakfast was amazing, and the hotel staff was also really kind. The furnitures are old, but it wasn't an issue for us. We got towels and we could have a hot shower after our long day. Enjoyed our stay, thanks!

The room is cozy though quite old-fashioned. But we had all we need including pretty big place for rest and tea (cattle with tea and coffee in the room). Hot water in the shower with wall between it and toilet 🙊 Very attentive and helpful personal. We took a driver there for the trip to waterfall and a tea factory. And it was not a problem to keep our backpacks at the reception after checkout time.
Two things: 1) transparent curtains 2) Old-fashioned carpets 🙈

Great location and breakfast. The room was ok as well, it had a small sunny area where you could have a complimentary tea. They also helped us hire a tuktuk driver for the day that drove us around and showed us great locations for a good price
