It was a very nice and clean place with big beds and Ruchi with his wife are such kindhearted people. They went out of their way to make our stay nice. Breakfast was delicious. Ruchi took us to tea plantation too.

We booked very short notice as we changed plans and upon our arrival everything was already arranged. We got tea and cakes for welcome and we even got the better room because they had a last minute cancellation and so it was free anyway. So we got a very nice view upon Nuwara Eliad as the hotel is located on a little hill. The whole place looks quiete new and pretty and they have a wonderful garden. The bed was very comfy and the bathroom big and clean. The breakfast was also very good and we could choose from different options. We unfortunately just stayed one night but we would definitiv come again. We could pay by card.

I can only confirm all the positive things been said in the reviews this month (didn't read further) : totally true in my experience. Whereby it is less the space itself (which is fine but as modest as the price of course) that deserves the highest rating, but it is the genuine care of the host! Expressed also with the generous breakfast he serves. It made me feel warm and good and will be remembered for a long time.

this private host has been the most beautiful stay . Romeni (the host) has been very caring and ensured everything was ok for us. the room is very cosy and comfortable with an amazing view over Nuwara Eliya town. The masterpiece is the home made Sri Lankan breakfast cooked by Romeni and her mum and auntie, absolutely loved it! Romeni did explain to us all the ingredient and the taste was outstanding.

Honestly, this was the best accomodation I've been in Srí Lanka. Not because of luxury things or other stuff, but because of the family, the owners. It's near to the jungle, absolutely calmy in the night, little bit cooler so good for sleeping. Owners welcomed me with a pot of the. I could even use their kitchen for preparing my breakfast. Roshan helped me with everything. Room was very clean, nice bed. Thank you Roshan for your service! I definitely recommend this and definitely come back when I'll come back to Nuwara Eliya.

Super family run Guest House ideally situated. Keeth was a great host, extremely friendly and helpful in every way... we enjoyed our long conversations with him. The bedroom was huge, clean and comfortable. Hot water bottles and extra blankets were provided for cold nights and the Sri Lankan breakfasts delicious. Highly recommended for a stay in Nuwara Eliya
