Fabulous setting and quiet place gives you a royal feel
Pros:

Fabulous location , neat and clean place with courteous forthcoming staff. The gardens and lawns are picturesque amply suiting abs engaging views of the beauty of the hills of nuwara Elia

Cons:

Since it’s a property having only eight rooms the rooms are small and a bit constricted.
In the summer or beginning of rains does get humid and warm no facility for aircon or ceiling fans. However the staff was kind enough to arrange for a pedestal fan thereby constricting the space further.
Breakfast menu is fixed and served pre plated (Menu fixe servi à l’assiette) better local options exist outside the property.

Mükemmel
Pros:

Kesinlikle en iyi otel deneyimlerinden biriydi. Otel’in harika bir mimari konsepti var. Çalışanlar çok ilgili ve çok iyi hissettiriyor. Havuz ısıtmalı olduğu için akşam hava soğukken bile yüzebiliyorsunuz. Sabah bali masajı yaptırdık ve harikaydı. Akşam yemeği 10/10. Kahvaltı 8/10. Yemeklerin servisleri, sunumları ve lezzetleri harika. Odalar konforlu. Buradan çok memnun ayrıldım. Kesinlikle daha fazla vakit geçirmek isterdim.

Cons:

Yok

Great location, helpful staff and a well maintained property.
Pros:

Our stay was very comfortable. The place is located right next to Victoria park on an elevation giving great views of Nuwara Eliya.

Things that make this a must book are its amazing facilities, helpful staff and a generous breakfast served in the lovely property gardens

I enjoyed the area but the hotel was just dated and not very good.
Cons:

It was pretty chaotic. Food was mediocre. We were only guests there and it all felt quite desperate. They tried hard but it just was not very good.
