Everything. It’s like staying in a European chalet. A real change in Sri Lanka at over 6,000 ft., was a little cool in the evenings, but delightful. The owner is a very nice guy who lived in Italy for a few years, thus the name. Hotel is very clean, price is very reasonable and perched on a hill with a magnificent view. Highly recommend!

We had an unforgettable stay at this beautiful cottage, surrounded by breathtaking mountain and farming views. The Bloom Loft room was spotless, cozy, and far exceeded our expectations, so much better than the photos. The atmosphere was calm and relaxing, making it the perfect getaway. Highly recommended for anyone seeking peace and natural beauty!

Great location, the room it is nice new and spacious but very humid. The bed sheet felt wet from the humidity, I strongly recommend a humidifier or AC to dry up the air. The host was nice but need some training on hospitality, I would suggest putting a hair dryer at least to share between the rooms, and a kettle and few cutlery and plates. You can tell this is not a Hotel but a sort of Homestay. Generally was good

Our stay at this beautiful villa in Nuwara Eliya was nothing short of exceptional. The place itself is a masterpiece from the British era — tastefully preserved, exuding old-world charm while offering every modern luxury you can imagine. It truly stands out as one of the most beautifully built and maintained villas in the region.

What I liked most of Nuwara Eliya was naturally the cool climate. Unfortunately I had to cut short our stay by one night due to an emergency. I look forward to spending a bit more time and enjoying Nuwara Eliya.

Nuwara Eliya’s weather is quite different from most of Sri...

Nuwara Eliya’s weather is quite different from most of Sri Lanka due to its high elevation. Unlike the tropical heat in the lowlands, it has a cool, misty, and unpredictable climate. Temperatures can drop below 10°C at night, and rain showers are common even during sunny days. Before traveling, it’s best to: Check the weather forecast for rain, fog, or sudden temperature drops. Pack warm clothing, as evenings and mornings can be chilly. Carry an umbrella or light raincoat, since showers are frequent. Plan outdoor activities (like visiting tea estates, Horton Plains, or Gregory Lake) for clearer parts of the day. “We visited on rainy days, which made it impossible to see the main attractions, as most of the time it was foggy.”

If you want to experience the coldest weather in Sri Lanka,...

If you want to experience the coldest weather in Sri Lanka, Nuwara Eliya is the place to be. Often called “Little England” due to its colonial charm, this hill town offers beautiful scenery and plenty of attractions. Gregory Lake is a highlight, perfect for a relaxing walk or a boat ride. Having your own transport (ideally a 4x4) makes it easier to explore the surrounding hills and hidden routes. The town also has great spots to eat, drink, and enjoy warm hospitality. Don’t miss a visit to one of the colonial hotels that once hosted many famous figures, including Queen Elizabeth II in 1954. A must-visit destination in the heart of Sri Lanka’s hills!

Great place to cool down in the highlands.

Great place to cool down in the highlands. We actually use blankets, coats and hot showers in June, which was a very welcomed change to the scorching hot cultural triangle and beaches. The town is very close (5km) from one of the ends of the very underrated Pekoe Trail, a 300 km, 22 stages long distance hiking trail, that is very interesting to see not only the tea plantations but the life it rural communities. Also very interesting is to observe the many small, commercial vegetables gardens that are scattered all over town. The town is 1800 mts above the sea level, and in June, their monsoon season, was rainy. Everything was incredibly lush and green, and the temperature very pleasant.

Colonial style villa with a beautiful garden, very fitting to Nuwara Eliya. Rooms are spacious and comfortable, especially the bed. staff is very helpful and friendly. They prepared sandwiches for an early departure for a hike as well and helped with the transfer to our next destination. Close to the city center, Victoria Park and the famous Grand Hotel where we had High Tea. Breakfast was good too, especially the pancakes.
