Reasonable but lot to improve

The interior looked nice and had a nice view

The road to access the property is rough, bit hard to travel by car. The staff is pretty new and are unable to handle certain situations. There was a power cut and a water cut which delayed my plans. It took over an hour to get it sorted

Worat experience in Sri Lanka

The staff was good

Everything rather than the staff is bad. I had dirty towels in my room also the view was not good at all. The door and beed were squeaking. The fridge and cattle were the worst the fridge was rusty and the cattle as well. I found an insect in the cattle I had to clean it very well before using it. I do not recommend anyone to this hotel, a lot of money for 0 quality.

Comfy & Tranquil

Very comfy and tranquil; friendly staff who provided good service with ever smiling face. Good food; chef obliged to customise dinner for our need and liking

It's a shame the approach road didn't justify such a wonderful hidden gem

Красивое уединённое место

Красивое распоряжение отеля, на вершине, оттуда открывается красивый вид на Нувара-Элию. Вкусный большой завтрак, дружелюбный персонал, красивая лаунж-зона.

Было прохладно, но мы включали обогреватель и тёплое одеяло, не дало замёрзнуть

Nice and friendly staff, with great accommodations.

The view from the room was very nice and the room itself was nice.

The road coming up to the hotel was very hard to get through.

Will most certainly recommend and come again

The hospitality, the atmosphere What’s not to like here. Everything is picture perfect. Additionally the vibe is just very inviting.

To be honest, there is nothing much.

Disappointing

The hotel can not be a 5 stars hotel. 3,5 is fair. The staff was friendly however payment by CC was not available and I have to pay in cash, which was a problem for me without earlier notice. For the breakfast, we waited more than one hour extra.

The hotel is not maintained properly. Better if they sell their rooms as 3 stars so the expectation of the guests will be not that high.

Disappointing

The location is good so as the flower garden

The room air conditioning was not working and the staff made no effort to fix it.

Nice hotel, too far out of town

nicely furnished and had a decent garden

Too remote, half an hour from Nuwara Eliya mostly down a single track road. no WiFi. Views of the forest from our room were spoiled by a corrugated roof, and the view of the garden by an old gas bottle and a builders ladder.

welcoming, comfortable and relaxing.

the hospitality of the staff -Roshan and Samantha- very attentive and helpful. And for us a bath with unlimited hot water. Good food with fresh locally grown vegetables

it was probably alittle too isolated for what was supposed to be an overnight stay.

Wonderful stay in mountains

The villa is located a bit further from the centre and has a Beautiful view around. It’s very different form an ordinary hotel, I loved the style of it, like a big house with a cozy cole room and a few tremendous terraces. I enjoyed the breakfast on one of them more than anywhere in Sri Lanka. The boys who work there are sweetest and innocent

While booking, double check about the view. In our room it was great but had a view on some metal constructions right under the window so if you care about the view, request the room without it. In our room there was a leakage in bathroom from the celling.

Stunning location

The Forest and lake is an exquisite place in the mountain country of Sri Lanka, the location is something to be seen in person, images don’t do it justice. It’s nestled between a gorgeous lake valley and a village, my room facing the village provided me with a stunning sight as the sun set and the lake valley gave off a beautiful sunrise while I enjoyed fresh cup of tea with my breakfast. Apart from the stunning outdoors, the interior of the hotel doesn’t fall short of appeal what so ever. Made to look like a rustic cabana the coal room and lobby were the most relaxing, my room was amazing as well. The location is quite harder to reach however in my opinion it is perfectly placed closer to the Ambewela farm and Horton Plains national park for the adventure seekers. Knowing that the main road was not up to par, we contacted the place, a very kind staff member informed us that there’s an alternative road that led to the bungalow which was a relief. Arriving at the hotel we were treated with a rustic cottage style aesthetic that put our minds at ease. The bungalow was rustic however it was very modern and intuitive where it counted, the bathroom was well built and modernized with an excellent shower system, which we did not expect to find this far from the town. The staff was incredibly helpful and we were greeted with smiles everywhere. Service was quick and the tea was some of the best we’ve had from smaller hotels. There was ample parking as well so we did not have to worry about our vehicle, there was an option of parking in a gated area or on the front entrance which we picked. Overall we had an incredible stay and were blown away by the location. Would definitely recommend for a stay.
