    The breakfast was unfortunately one of the least enjoyable we had during our entire road trip. Additionally, the staff could benefit from more training, as the level of hospitality didn’t quite match what we experienced in the south. That said, they were polite and did attend to our requests. The rooms are quite old, which some may appreciate for the classic charm, but it's worth noting for those who prefer more modern accommodation.

    We found the suite to be very reasonably priced, and it offered a beautiful view. The location is superb—just a short distance from the town and Gregory Lake. The property is exceptionally clean and well-maintained, with great in-room amenities that made our stay even more comfortable.

    Nothing the hotel can change but it can be a bit noisy in the morning at 5am with the mosque nearby for the morning prayers.

    Great place ended up extending my stay I loved it so much. Great breakfast included and beautiful scenery of tea plantations. Great value for money.

    Nothing was great only thing is you hear the mosque at 5am each morning that is close by but nothing the hotel can do just so you know.

    Great place the beds were so comfy one of the best in Sri Lanka. We had the dorm room and it was so worth the price and included breakfast was amazing. Close to town about 30 mins walk or 5-10 mins by tuk tuk. So peaceful and lovely place

    Watch out for local taxes that are stated as additional to the booking.com price. My mistake, I didn’t realise & worked out to be more expensive than expected.

    Lovely location away from the main road, surrounded by tea plantation. Good shower, comfortable beds & great generous breakfast. Staff were lovely & helpful, they bought us tea when we came back from our tour.

    Loved everything about this place. The hospitality was great, the staff was so respectful, they packed my breakfast for me as I had an early departure, I was greeted with tea upon arrival and at my departure, my room was breathtaking with 2 stories. And it had such a lovely view. I for sure would stay there again.

    A minor suggestion rather: offer tea first, meal & the fruit. They offer this in the opposite order. That aside, really lovely food!

    Cleanest accomodation i stayed at. Great service, lovely personnel and very helpful. The host likes to help with his dad's tuk tuk services as well, but sometimes it’s not communicated clearly.

    This hotel is in a fabulous location amongst tea fields with views across Nuwara Eilye. Great staff. Stairs are a bit dodgy for less than agile folk. No handrails with open sides

    Bathroom had some weird smell, may be due to the weather conditions in such places, but was squeaky clean.

    Hotel is in a quiet & good location, overlooking tea plantations and easily accessible to most sightseeing places. Staffs were kind enough to upgrade our family to a room on the higher floor when the tv connection had some issue. Breakfast was western, fresh fruits and string hoppers and was tasty. Extremely hospitable, kind, ever-smiling staff (Pasindhu and 2 others as well) who cook yummy food, as we also had fried rice & kottu for dinner at the hotel on 2 nights. Staffs are always helping out if there is any issue. The hotel has balcony to sit and have a peaceful chat and coffee. Breakfast area on the 2nd floor is beautiful and overlooks the tea plantations. Rooms were huge & spacious, with an upper deck, bathrooms clean and hot water flowing anytime of the day or night. Highly recommend if you want a quiet & relaxing stay.

    Nothing - it was perfect !

    Gorgeous hotel with a great view. Location nice and peaceful but not too far from the town. Shared dorm was incredibly clean - the bedding was incredible! The staff were super friendly and helpful. Food was yummy and was good to have coffee and tea in the rooms. Hotel also put me in contact with a Tuktuk driver who took me around for the day for a reasonable price. Would stay here again without a doubt.

    This year, we visited Nuwara Eliya for the fourth time, and there was no question about where to stay. Of course, it had to be Mount View Single Tree again! The hotel exceeded all our expectations once more. The view from our window a balcony was absolutely breathtaking – tea plantations stretching as far as the eye could see, and a beautiful temple on the mountain. Hot water, good towels and bed linen, everything was perfect. We loved the Srilankan food at the hotel which was absolutely delicious. The staff were friendly and attentive. Our special thanks to Alex, the manager, who was not only professional but also genuinely kind and helpful. He was always ready to assist with any request or issue, making our stay even more comfortable. Highly recommend!

    The duvets in the dorms did not covers.. so basically everyone is using the same thing without washing

    The location was good.. in the tea plantations but still close to the centre

    Beautiful hotel on top of a hill, surrounded by tea plantation! The place is clean and well equipped, we stayed in a private room. I recommend this place for a nice stay in Nuwara Eliya. There’s a tuktuk service to reach the city.

    There was just one bathroom available to use so maybe if there was one more it would have been better but only a minor thing.

    Really lovely staff who were so kind and helpful. The dorm room was really clean and the beds were so comfortable! Breakfast was really good and the location was really nice, up in the middle of the tea plantations, the view was stunning.

    Nothing, I wish I could have stayed longer.

    You Must stay here if you come to nuwara eliya. It’s CLEAN, has Hot showers, indoor slippers, fresh towels daily, lockers, Thick Comfortors & Duvet sheets to keep warm, beds felt like sleeping in a cloud, lovely free (really good) breakfast (toast, fruit, jam, sausage, omelette or traditional Sri Lanka pancakes & roti), available dinner options in case you don’t want to leave at night, the Kindest owner & staff who make the stay feel at home. Loved the living room common area, nice way to relax, maybe meet others. The owner helped organize tuktuks/tours depending on what you want to do and was very knowledgeable about the area. Very safe, even though it’s a 20 min walk from the city. As a female solo traveler I value safety and always hesitant if a place is outside in a more remote area, but this was perfectly placed away from the hustle, with elite, beautiful mountainous views and near view points/buddhist monastery. Lots of value for what you pay for & I highly enjoyed my stay. Also if you’re thinking of skipping Nuwara Eliya, don’t, it was worth a few nights and very lovely if you have time.

    The beds in the dorms are quite shaky so you get woken up if the person above or below you moves a lot.
