our stay was just ok.
Pros:

Shakeeb, the all around one man receptionist made our stay so much better! He was able to help me with my request and any information I needed.

Cons:

However, the property itself needs an update, the standard room was ok for
the price however the hotel facilities and
interior including the garden needs improvement.

OK, distinctive older building, but in need of some attention
Pros:

Distinctive 'historic looking' building, room was OK, near Victoria Park. Staff overall were OK.

Cons:

Bit of a steep walk up from the road (my girlfriend had hurt her foot, otherwise wouldn't have been an issue). Building needs a bit of care.
View from our room window was just of rubble (rooms at the front probably had a good view).
Breakfast was in the next door hotel, but the breakfast was OK.

I would definitely recommend this hotel and stay again
Pros:

Beautiful fireplace that was lit up after dinner. The rooms were decorated with period furnishings adding a lovely touch to the overall ambience.

Cons:

Small inconvenience in regards to access road to the hotel. Not suitable for elderly parents

À recommander
Pros:

Le calme, le style anglais désuet, l’amabilité du personnel. Surtout le petit feu de cheminée le soir dans la chambre. Petit déjeuner copieux.

Cons:

Rien

Pros:

Petit hôtel plein de charme dans une jolie petite maison de style victorien. C'est super mignon. La chambre est nickel et l'accueil excellent.
La gare routière et le centre-ville sont tout proches, à 10 minutes à pied.

Cons:

Le jardin et le cadre pâtissent terriblement de la construction du nouvel établissement du même propriétaire (le Green View Hotel). De plus, un autre immeuble est actuellement en construction juste derrière le Trevene et c'est très dommage.
Le petit-déjeuner est servi dans les locaux du Green View Hotel et c'est dommage. J'aurais nettement préféré déjeuner dans les salons coquets du Trevene.

Charming colonial era building with kind helpful staff
Pros:

The staff were very friendly and kind. They were also flexible as we swapped days at very short notice. The hotel is charming - a colonial era bungalow. The front rooms are enormous and come with an adjoining sitting area. The building has not been modernised so won't suit everybody. Location is good.

Cons:

Sadly a huge concrete building is going up immediately behind the bungalow which will ruin the setting.

Good service, room extremely dark
Pros:

The location is really good - next to the park, which is the best thing to see in Nuwara Eliya, and about 10 minutes walk from the center.
The room is spacious and well-furnished.
The breakfast on the first day was below average (everything was cold, including the omelet), but on the second day it was excellent. No idea why it was so different, as we ate at exactly the same time on both days.
The young man who works as the manager was excellent - very polite, professional and helpful.

Cons:

The room was very dark. There is a window, but behind it, about 1 meter away, is a wall of another house. So even in daytime, the room felt like a basement. This is something I couldn't see from the photos, and it made me very uncomfortable. Considering the price of the room, I think the situation should be described here on the website.
Furthermore, the room was cold, and if you want a heater you need to pay extra. However, they did light a fireplace for us in the evening, which helped, but they only do it after 8 pm.
