I stayed in a private room that was comfortable, clean, and spacious. The thick duvet was perfect for the cold nights, and the water pressure in the hot shower was excellent. The location is great — just a 10-minute walk from the center. Gayan and his mum are incredibly kind and welcoming. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality.

Comfy and cozy dorm beds with individual sockets, lovely and knowledgeable hosts and great facilities! I was able to do my washing for free and use the kitchen/fridge at any time. Complimentary tea and coffee is always appreciated too! Highly recommend

Our stay at this guesthouse was as expected. The bunk room was quiet, clean and comfortable. The staff were helpful and gave us some good suggestions for the area. It was great to have kitchen facilities so we could cook our own meals for a change.

We stayed in a private room, I really liked how big the room was and super clean, also it was great to have a hot shower. It was a lovely short walk to town. I would recommend.

Not a downside for us, but this hostel is on the calmer and quieter side so not a party atmosphere - although they do have a common area if travellers did want to mingle!

The guesthouse was great and staff were lovely! Beds were some of the comfiest we have experienced on our travels :) We stayed in a private room and it had everything that was needed. The location is great if you don’t want to be directly in the centre (approx. 20 mins uphill walk from centre), but it was what we wanted to get a little calm and quiet and there was a great restaurant right next to the hostel.

The only minor thing I didn’t like was the occasional cigarette smell coming in the room.

The location was great, out of the busy central area, but easily walkable even during the night. The bunk bed was really comfortable and the thick duvet was great during the cold nights. The bathroom was clean and had hot water. There are lockers in the room. Complementary tea and coffee are always available. You can do your laundry (the staff helps in the use of the washing machine and they provide the detergent too). No dryer, but everything dried for the next evening despite the cold. WiFi is great in the lobby but not particularly strong in the room.

The place is good and clean. Basic accommodation but it has everything you need. The owner is a really nice and helpful guy which is taking care of the place. It also has a kitchen in case you need it, and a small garden where you can chill. It is very quiet in the area so you can have a good rest.It takes 10 min to walk to the city center. And like 20 min to the bus Station. Very fair price.

The towels are too old. The water from flushing the toilet tends to splash out when flushing. You have to be careful. There is no enough hot water after a short while when showering at night, so it's more suitable to shower in the afternoon. It is not a big problem. They are not good at cooking. Maybe chef is not there.

There are plenty of sockets in the room and it is convenient for charging . It has a washing machine and a place to dry clothes. Very good. The location is quite good, just a short walk to the main street. And surrounding is quiet. There is a hairdryer available. Receptionist boy is nice and kind.

The room didn’t have a proper window and the WiFi connection wasn’t great in some areas.

Nice stay just outside the centre of Nuwara Eliya. Rooms were clean and just like the pictures. The owner is very responsive over message and can help you sort a tuktuk for standard prices. You got proper duvets with the beds since it is cold.

slight walk into the main area but very easy walk

We loved the accomodation, the shower worked really well and was very hot. The bed was comfortable and had very clean comfy bedding. The access to kitchen and fridge was great. The room also had lots of space.

I didn't see anyone smoking, but it smelled like someone was smoking right outside the room. No mosquito nets, which I found to be a must in Sri Lanka, otherwise one or two are gonna wake you up at night.

I had a fairly comfortable stay. Private bunks, pretty empty dorm except for another person, nice hot shower, and nice location - a little outside of the city which made it more peaceful but still walking distance. Most importantly, hosts were very kind!

Gayan the owner of the guest house is a great guy. He made tours with me and even go out at night with his friends having fun. His mother is so polite and doing the breakfast always with a smile on her face. I felt home. Thank you Gayan for everything. You got a friend on me 👍

The room is very basic, the walls that face the garden are made of a thin metal material, they are not real brick walls, luckily it wasn't noisy at all. In the bedroom there is barely any room to put your clothes and stuff, only a desk and a chair, no closet, no bedside tables and no window. There is a clothes rack with a few hangers but it is not enough. Also there was just ONE socket for the whole room. The tuck tuck driver that they recommended to take us to the tea factory cost us 6K rupees for about half a day (about 4/5hours) but he wasn't the nicest, I think you can get a cheaper price if you find it yourself, or at least a friendlier driver for that price.

Gayan, the host, was super friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived. The guesthouse has a very "Youth Hostel" vibe, we met 2 other travellers straight away with whom we shared stories and tips from the trip. Gayan advised us on how to get public transportation and where to go in Nuwara Eliya. Plus the hostel is quite close to the city center, within walking distance. We really liked it that we could make coffee and tea at all times. There was really nice warm water in the shower, which we appreciated because the weather was chilly and the room was a bit cold. The duvet was awesome to keep us warm since it was cold at night and there is no heating, obviously. The room is clean and the bedding quite new.

The hostel is down some very steep steps

Simple but sufficient hostel. Very affordable and room was basic but all we needed.
