Pros:

It was an old establishment with an average outlook. The meal prices was in my opinion overpriced. The room facilities were somewhat poor with torn carpets

Unpleasant stay
Pros:

The staff put us in 2 different rooms for 2 nights, the first one needs lots of repair, eg. Telephone not working, smelly bathroom. Electricity and water stopped many times.
The breakfast buffet is so so, the local coffee tastes blank.

Pros:

We arrived to Nuwara Eliya to find our hotel booking via Hotels.com had not been registered by the hotel itself and they were fully booked. Hotels.com took no responsibility as they used an agent called YOHO. This let down by hotels.com aside - we managed to find the golf club had rooms and could book in there. We were desperate to find somewhere quickly as Nuwara Eliya itself was a huge dissapointment! Weather was worse than Blackpool in November (there were even some hotels called Blackpool!) Torrential rain and around 10 degrees, no bars or restaurants around so we needed a hotel with its own bar and restaurant, so we quickly went for this place. Upon arrival, the rooms were very basic, not good. It has very clearly, 'had it's day'. The saving grace of this place was the cozy bar/pub to warm up in whilst watching the cricket, drinking beers and wines and chatting to very friendly staff members.

Historic golf club
Pros:

we were visiting the golf club that grandad had been Captain of 100 years ago. His challenge cup is still there. Very interesting course in the middle of the tea estates.

Members only
Pros:

If you look for someplace to spend a night or two very central in Nuwara Eliya but nothing else , it is OK. For me it was not a Hotel. Reception/Office acted slow and not welcoming. Restaurant with Food was good when they wanted to Deliver. Golfcourse - chose another. This one share the area with community and lots of people on fairways and surondings. The Course crosses ways and paths and the caddies advises are much wanted. Much GUR and black on greens. If you rent golfclubs be sure you have them in your room over night. Otherwise they could be on the course when you have booked them. Reliability? The lowest level of professionality I have experienced at a golfclub. As on many golfclubs the Members comes first which is good but as a Hotel I will not stay there again.

Wunderschöne Anlage
Pros:

In dem männerdominierten, sehr sauberen Hotel mit gutem Essen sticht der excellente Service und die Hilfsbereitschaft der Crew hervor. Es gibt sogar eine Bibliothek, einen DVD Player im Zimmer und ein Klavier. Für Backpacker eher ungeeignet, da auf adäquate Kleidung zu achten ist!

Convenient
Pros:

Constant problem with service staff, service took far too long, food always arrived cold, orders were incorrect because they did not write them down, obvious breakdown between waiter and kitchen.

Badly in need of a female in the management chain.

Accommodation very basic, the complex could be fantastic if it was upgraded, great potential!

Beautiful golf course
Pros:

Other than the golf course, we are very disappointed with the rooms. It was old and rundown.

Terrible experience...
Pros:

I don't know where to start...People who worked seem like they don't want to run an hotel. We had a very bad service from the beginning to the end. The room itself was terrible. Beware that the rooms are next to each other, they are all the same and they have CARPET on the floor. Everything in our room was very dirty, more especially the carpet. Bad smell and humidity in the room. There was stain and moisture everywhere in the bathroom (see pictures). Also, there was a big lack of amenities in the room (no hair dryer, no fridge, old television, etc.). I travelled 1 month in Sri Lanka and this is by far the worst hotel we had! More especially if you consider it was one of the most expensive. We really didn't feel great in this room and we considered to move to another hotel for our second night because it was too dirty, old and unpleasant.

Pros:

The club was difficult to find. We drove around in circles as the entrance is quite secluded and did not match the location on Google Maps. On checking in, we found the accomondation basic but clean. We had a good night's sleep. Staff service is warm and eager to please. This is not really a hotel but a golf club, so expectations need to be moderated.

Great view, close to town
Pros:

Spacious clean rooms, very helpful staff and a fantastic view. The only downside was the water from the taps was yellow, not a huge deal but a bit gross. We didn't have this problem anywhere else we staid in Sri Lanka.

A place to stay...but not a hotel
Pros:

To put this review in context, we decided to stay here as we couldn't find anything else locally during Lunar New Year, so it was fine for our purposes but it isn't designed or meant to be a hotel and you can tell. The Golf Club and area itself is a step back into the classic, 19th century colonial style British Empire. The food at the restaurant is perfectly OK. Nothing outstanding. The rooms are not used regularly, they are a little damp and musty, the beds are very soft, and the bathroom shower is a bit hit and miss...that said, for the price paid its a decent enough place to sleep if you cant find anything else. The best thing about this place it is waking up at the crack of dawn and watching the sunrise across the golf course with the dewy, misty mornings and having a nice breakfast on the verandah.

The place with an amazing old world charm!!!
Pros:

It has a lovely old world charm which is very different from most of the hotels these days. The location is good and the views are absolutely beautiful since it's on a golf course. The golf course itself is well maintained. Food is good and the portions are also generous. The breakfast that's included in the plan is very good. We had booked for 2 nights, initially, but we extended our stay by another night. We just couldn't get enough of the place.

Simple accomodation but lovely staff
Pros:

Very basic accommodation, but the staff was so kind and helpful it more than made up for the simplicity of the accommodation.
The room we had could use some maintenance.
