We stayed in the Mountain Suite, and the views were stunning. The room was very spacious and the staff extremely attentive! The facilities were top-notch. The indoor pool overlooked the mountain ranges, the Skyline Bar is a must visit for anyone in the area - drinks in the clouds - and the Sackville restaurant had great food and views. The breakfast buffet consisted of food from all over the world - and shouldn't be missed. The manager, Mr. Shaam, consistently went above and beyond - He was extremely informative and resourceful and consistently surprised us with his generosity! Dilrukshi was always helpful with tips on where to go and what to do. I wouldn't stay anywhere else.

This was our third time in Nuwara Eliya, snd this time we were very lucky with the hotel. Firstly, it is located in a beautiful place on a mountain with a view of tea plantations, the city and a Buddhist monastery. You can see it without getting out of bed. Secondly, we had a very nice spacious room with a large balcony, kitchen and a comfortable bed. There was excellent hot water, which is especially important for Nuwara Eliya. Special thanks to host Alex and his staff for their hospitality, desire to help, delicious breakfasts and lunches. For my wife and me, this is the best hotel in Nuwara Eliya

Such a beautiful place run by beautiful people. The misty mountain view from our room was so beautiful and reminiscent of our home town in the Nilgiris hills. The monkeys that came into the backyard were a delight to watch.The place is spotless.. Roshan and Amilini were very caring hosts and accomodated all our needs. You have to get your meals from outside shops

Great location, the room it is nice new and spacious but very humid. The bed sheet felt wet from the humidity, I strongly recommend a humidifier or AC to dry up the air. The host was nice but need some training on hospitality, I would suggest putting a hair dryer at least to share between the rooms, and a kettle and few cutlery and plates. You can tell this is not a Hotel but a sort of Homestay. Generally was good

Our stay at this beautiful villa in Nuwara Eliya was nothing short of exceptional. The place itself is a masterpiece from the British era — tastefully preserved, exuding old-world charm while offering every modern luxury you can imagine. It truly stands out as one of the most beautifully built and maintained villas in the region.

What I liked most of Nuwara Eliya was naturally the cool climate. Unfortunately I had to cut short our stay by one night due to an emergency. I look forward to spending a bit more time and enjoying Nuwara Eliya.

Nuwara Eliya’s weather is quite different from most of Sri...

Nuwara Eliya’s weather is quite different from most of Sri Lanka due to its high elevation. Unlike the tropical heat in the lowlands, it has a cool, misty, and unpredictable climate. Temperatures can drop below 10°C at night, and rain showers are common even during sunny days. Before traveling, it’s best to: Check the weather forecast for rain, fog, or sudden temperature drops. Pack warm clothing, as evenings and mornings can be chilly. Carry an umbrella or light raincoat, since showers are frequent. Plan outdoor activities (like visiting tea estates, Horton Plains, or Gregory Lake) for clearer parts of the day. “We visited on rainy days, which made it impossible to see the main attractions, as most of the time it was foggy.”

If you want to experience the coldest weather in Sri Lanka,...

If you want to experience the coldest weather in Sri Lanka, Nuwara Eliya is the place to be. Often called “Little England” due to its colonial charm, this hill town offers beautiful scenery and plenty of attractions. Gregory Lake is a highlight, perfect for a relaxing walk or a boat ride. Having your own transport (ideally a 4x4) makes it easier to explore the surrounding hills and hidden routes. The town also has great spots to eat, drink, and enjoy warm hospitality. Don’t miss a visit to one of the colonial hotels that once hosted many famous figures, including Queen Elizabeth II in 1954. A must-visit destination in the heart of Sri Lanka’s hills!

Great place to cool down in the highlands.

Great place to cool down in the highlands. We actually use blankets, coats and hot showers in June, which was a very welcomed change to the scorching hot cultural triangle and beaches. The town is very close (5km) from one of the ends of the very underrated Pekoe Trail, a 300 km, 22 stages long distance hiking trail, that is very interesting to see not only the tea plantations but the life it rural communities. Also very interesting is to observe the many small, commercial vegetables gardens that are scattered all over town. The town is 1800 mts above the sea level, and in June, their monsoon season, was rainy. Everything was incredibly lush and green, and the temperature very pleasant.

The location is perfect, close to the center, the bus station and the Grand Hotel. The room (private room, two twin beds) was clean, there was a shelf, a hair dryer, international plugs, thick blankets. The water in the shower was warm. The host was nice and gave us tips for our time in Nuwara Eliya. There is a kitchen you can use (we didn't) and a common room. The breakfast was tasty.

We loved the views, the service and the ‘home away from home’ feel. The hotel manager was absolutely incredible and the best host we have had in Sri Lanka. Thanks for having us! Just note the accomodation is quite far away from Nuwara Eliya town, and is more of a remote getaway.
