We stayed one night at this homestay and we had a very pleasant experience. It’s a family-run place that feels warm and welcoming from the moment you arrive. The staff is incredibly kind and helpful, always ready to assist and offer useful tips for exploring the area. Breakfast is homemade and absolutely delicious. A great choice for anyone looking for an authentic and friendly stay. (The only down part is that it is a bit cold.) Highly recommended!

There was a late night party of some sort which kept us up, noise started at 11pm, and we had to be up early. Outdoor furniture was old and dirty.

Staff were super friendly and welcoming, the room was gorgeous, lovely views, shower had good water pressure, bed was huge!

taxi driver was confused about the location. our window was facing the entrance so kept curtains closed and room dark

it was a good place for 1 night stay in that beautiful city. host is helpful, tasty breakfast, tuk tuk available

it was quite humid, but this isn't their fault - you're in the jungle! I also think all of the places in Nuwara Eliya will be like that

amazing host as well as the rest of the staff, very knowledgeable and helped with everything! comfy beds, great location and all amenities you may wish for!

Great place up on the hill. A little tricky to drive up in a van but a pretty standard Sri Lankan road. The breakfast was a real stand-out. Delicious muffins and spicy roti's to get our sensors going. It is a very pleasant temperature in Nuwara Eliya and we didn't need air con, infact there was a fire in the main common room. We had the family room up the top which had fantastic views. Friends and family were below in a shared area with rooms off the main communal area. The power went off at the end of our stay but half of us managed to shower with hot water. The host is very responsive with great English.

The permanent humidity create it's own specific smell, bringing along the annoying mosquitos.

Great location, beautiful building, ideal for a group (like our four families). Dinner and breakfast were wonderful, and the dining room offers a great atmosphere with it's fireplace. The service was great.

Location is a bit remote but is easy to get around as the staff help organise Tuktuks, and Nuwara Eliya is very big.

Breakfast was nice and Prince was really helpful with organising activities, we really enjoyed the Pekoe trail stage 22 hiking around the tea plantations, and the tea plantation and waterfall tour on our next morning too. The house was really clean and the staff were really friendly

Cool location with a lovely view. An excellent breakfast and the staff were very friendly. Perfect for a one night stay. It’s not too expensive but cleanliness could be improved a little having read the reviews. The downstairs section of the 4 person room was cosy and I’d imagine people have booked this room just for this main area. The loft area was pretty dusty and the pillows had some mould. The owners did give us new pillows when we pointed this out though.

Our stay in Pigeons nest was amazing! Prince was a great host who provided a great stay, with amazing views, lovely food and tea on arrival, and helped us to sort out our train journey to Ella.

No hot shower, and the cleanliness could be improved. There are areas in the apartment that clearly haven’t been properly cleaned in quite some time.

Beautiful location with friendly and helpful staff. The rooms are very modern and stylishly designed. Overall, it was a pleasant experience.

Chill place to stay in Nuwara Eliya, friendly staff, good breakfast and a nice view over the city. We got our own tuktuk so location was perfect but walking towards the city might be a bit far unless you like to hike.

Location wise- you just need to be aware that you need to walk up the mountain for 10 -15 minutes from city center. Or you can take a tuk tuk for 1€.

The owners/family is really nice, it feels like you are staying with them in their home. The accomodation has a common room with fireplace and kitchen that can be used anytime. We were greeted with a tea and the hosts took care of all our questions. They organized our transfer to the train station and packed us a breakfast to go. When we had breakfast in the hotel, it was one of the best breakfasts in Sri Lanka- recommend to take the sri lanka breakfast and not the western one. It can get cold in Nuwara Eliyah- bring warm socks, jacket and sweater.

Very comfy bed, lovely views but a bit of a distance from town. Owner was very helpful trying to arrange plans with us!

They are currently building a new room next to the family room upstairs, which means it looks a bit like a construction site getting to your room. The room itself was not very clean (lot of dust), but the bedsheets were nicely cleaned. A lot of noise from pigeons on the (metal) roof in the evening and morning unfortunately.

Beautiful location, very nice room (family room upstairs), choice between local or English breakfast was nice. Very friendly owners, good advice for activities in the area.

15-20 minute walk from town center

Nice and clean place.

Unfortunately, we only booked one night here – if you're planning to visit, I highly recommend staying at least two nights to fully enjoy the experience.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The room was beautiful, the location perfect, and everything was impeccably clean. The warm shower was a real treat after a long day. The staff were incredibly helpful, but a special mention goes to Krishor, whose kindness and assistance were the best we’ve experienced so far in Sri Lanka. This hotel is an absolute must if you're in Nuwara Eliya!

You may want to bring ear plugs as there was some early morning noise from animals and a local temple

Such a beautiful place! Amazing view from the king room. Prince was a wonderful host, friendly, helpful and welcoming. He helped us to book the train to Ella and arrange an excellent tuk tuk tour around the tea plantations. Thank you so much!

We only stayed for two nights. Was hoping to stay in the second night, to have dinner. However no chef available that night.

The shower was excellent. The view from our room was beautiful.

Perfetto!

The bathroom and blanket could’ve been cleaned a bit better. The shower curtain was moldy and dirty. The blanket also had a smell. But other than this, it was great.

Great location, very friendly hosts and very delicious breakfast. Room was spacious with a great view. Amazing shower pressure and hot water. The hosts were always available when I needed something.

Very accommodating and friendly host. Room was good and comfy bed with views toward the hills. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious.

Nothing comes to mind

This place is beautifully located with views over the mountains and Nuwara Eliya. The staff was so helpful. They helped us putting together a plan to spend the short time that we had in Nuwara Eliya. The rooms are simple and clean and the breakfast was delicious

Super friendly staff that is very welcoming and helpful. We had a big room with a gorgeous view. It can be a bit cold so make sure to bring some warmer clothes.

Some flies in the living room and couldn’t close the bathroom window but not an issue

Nice spacious bedroom which was very comfortable, nice warm shower. The staff were all very nice and attentive, always available to help. View and location was very good, close enough to walk into the town centre. Would highly recommend.
