We really enjoyed our stay here even though the weather was rubbish. The house is such a quirky throwback to another era, it was like stepping back in time and visiting a boarding house/ B and B. Great value for money. We would recommend staying here. - Staff were incredibly helpful and informative which made the stay so enjoyable. Shakeeb was particularly helpful. - Bedrooms were so spacious with a fireplace (that was lit at night for us). - Buffet breakfast was at the bigger hotel next door and was delicious - Shower was hot and had great pressure. - The place is old and so a little run-down but somehow just contributed to the charm. - Wifi was great - Walking distance to many of the main parts of Nuwara Eliya including the gardens and the main town.

We had a wonderful 3 night stay. The room and bathroom was spacious, clean and well equipped. We loved having an enclosed shower with great hot water pressure separate from the rest of the bathroom. This kept everything dry. Wi-Fi is very good. There are many sitting rooms with couches to read and write in the lobby. The free breakfast was delicious and extensive. The hotel is located within walking distances to everything. The best part was the host (Shakeeb) who attended to our every need and always around when we had questions. Shakeeb arranged all our logistics for Hortons Plains, and made cost effective recommendations for beyond. Thank you Shakeeb!

We had an enjoyable and unforgettable two-night stay here, even though it rained during our visit. A special thanks to Mr. Shakeeb for his exceptional care and attention to detail, which left a lasting impression on us. He was always ready to assist us at a moment’s notice, making us feel truly cared for throughout our stay. One of the highlights of our visit was gathering by the fireplace every evening, warming up from the chilly weather of Nuwara Eliya. It was such a cozy and heartwarming experience that perfectly complemented the serene atmosphere of this beautiful place. Breakfast was great as well! Thank you for making our stay so memorable. We would absolutely recommend this accommodation and look forward to returning in the future!

This is an old 100 year old building that is reminiscent of buildings in England from the 1930's. It's need of some attention but that's the charm. Service was excellent. Breakfast is served next door and is hotel buffet style so a bit rubbish. Only bug bears was the bed sheets don't fit the beds so you end up sleeping on the raw mattress and in the storm, the ceiling leaks water into the bathroom. We were in room 101!!

Breakfast is not good. Buffet. All cold. Nothing healthy except the fruit. Coffee was instant. Tea was stewed. Room leaks when rains.

A very enjoyable stay in this old colonial bungalow. Excellent quiet location just on the edge of town. Extremely comfortable large bed and whilst we didn't think we would need the duvet and blanket, we did!! It's definitely a lot cooler here. Buffet breakfast served in the hotel right next door, and a kettle in your room, which was a nice touch. But the very best thing here was the excellent and friendly staff.

The shower could do with an update, including better plumbing for the hot water, which was unreliable.

Stayed here because of its history. It was built in 1835. You can easily walk to downtown and the Botanical Gardens. It's quiet at night because it's set back from the main road. The bed was super comfortable and had a comforter on it which was great because it was cold out. The staff built a fire in the fireplace in the lobby sitting room for us in the evening. Best of all shower was hot!!! Breakfast is a buffet in the new hotel right beside the Trevene. The staff were super polite and went out of their way to make you comfortable

Cosy guesthouse in a former tea estate bungalow, located a few minutes' walk from central Nuwara Eliya, Victoria Park and Lake Gregory. The décor is more quaint than modern, but my room was large and well-appointed. The friendly staff member helped me throughout my stay, giving me advice on things to do in town and even lighting a roaring fire in my in-room fireplace — a real novelty! The bed was very comfortable and my room was extremely quiet so I got a great night's sleep.

Those who prefer a more modern/minimalist style may not be too fond of the décor but I found it charming.

The hotel has lots of character and charm. The public spaces are cozy and welcoming. The bed was very comfortable and our room was spacious. The garden area out front was a great place to relax and enjoy hearing the wind in the trees. The young man who worked at reception was conscientious and friendly. He patiently answered all our questions about the area and took time to visit with us. He made our stay extra special.

The shower curtain needs to be replaced and the hot water was a bit tricky.

The room is in a very nice house close to a park in a quiet street. The bed was very comfortable, and the room was very quiet, and in that area the air is cooler so no need in air conditioning. The Wi-Fi worked well, but could be a bit slow in the evening or if were in the room too far away from the corridor where the router was located. The bathroom was clean, but it was tricky to get warm water, because it was either hot or cold, so we had to "play with the settings". The breakfast was very good, so we truly enjoyed it. The staff members were very hospitable.

On the booking there was information about laundry service, but actually it is not available anymore. It's good that we double checked before coming, because we had to arrange laundry in another location.

The room had this old tacky colonial vibe which we absolutely loved! The staff were attentive and efficient, very eager to help and make us feel comfortable. They arranged us a trip to Horton plains which was great, packed us take away breakfast and had no problem with us leaving our luggage in the room even a bit after check-out time. Good location, hot shower, everything you need for a day or two in Nuwara Eliya!
