Unique thing about the hotel is it's located in remote place which is the most coldest and unique spot of Nuwaraeliya, being in such a remote location they serve all delicious veg and non veg food, I liked there preparation of veg and non veg dishes which is quite unique compared to other places in Srilanka.

Breakfast was absolutely delicious! Everything was fresh and beautifully presented. It was the perfect way to start my day before heading out to explore the city. Speaking of the staff, I cannot say enough good things about them. From check-in to check-out, everyone I encountered was friendly, welcoming, and eager to assist with any request I had. Whether I needed recommendations for local attractions or simply had a question about the hotel amenities, they were always ready to help with a smile.
The only drawback was the inconsistency of the hot water in the showers. At times, it was difficult to find the right balance, with water temperature fluctuating between too hot and too cold. Despite this minor flaw, I would still consider revisiting in the future.

The road leading to the hotel was gravel road with no signage indicating it's location. Breakfast was very bland. Amenities like TV not working. Lack proper security since it was so secluded. Only plus point is the location high up on the mountain and the weather.
Hotel should have more lights since it has dark decor. A fireplace in the lounge would have been nice. Improvement in the menu both dinner and breakfast. Room doors need to be changed to keyless. Had difficulty opening and closing. Curtains should close fully. Location of tea and coffee facility cannot be next to the bed . It's places there because there is no power point at the initial place on the desk. Bathroom floor very slippery. Wrong choice of tiles .

A very comfortable stay with good beds, warm water and a hairdryer. The staff are friendly and we even had a log fire in the lounge. Breakfast is included and value for money. The staff went out of their way to arrange transport to town and the station
It is really very rural and the roads are in a dreadful state because of rain. This makes going to town to buy dinner very difficult. The food the hotel ordered in for us was priced in dollars as opposed to the local currency $12 FOR A sri lankan boney chicken curry was really not good value for money. We felt being taken advantage of as this was the only food with nothing else to order as it was take aways.

We came to this lovely Hotel and were kind of speechless. It's unfortunately really not easy to reach and little far away but its actually was exactly what we needed. It's very modern and has a unique design. The staff was so lovely and caring and the food was really amazing. In the evening we were able to eat our dinner at the fireplace which gave us a incredible cozy feeling. The room was very clean and had a great view. I can highly recommend this Hotel if you want to relax and have a really unique athmosphere. Even if its far away its worth the way. I'm sure we will come back one day. And then we also looking forward to try their rabbit curry. :)
A few more plugs had been nice :)

We had a wonderful time. The property is a little secluded from the town and peaceful. You can see the stars shining bright from this property. We had excellent breakfast at the property during our stay. Had a long chat with the host Mr. Jazeen who conversed about a myriad of things related to Srilanka. It was really nice talking to him. Prabani was very helpful and assisted us with everything we needed during our stay and with a contagious smile all the time. We chose this house because of the view and to really experience nature, and we were not disappointed in the least. I would definitely recommend this place to others.
