Offering mountain views, Thuvaraga Inn is an accommodation situated in Nuwara Eliya, 3.7 km from Gregory Lake and 11 km from Hakgala Botanical Garden. Free private parking is available and the guest house also features car hire for guests who want to explore the surrounding area. Paramesh is a brilliant host, very friendly. He took great care of me. He was very patient with me despite my horrible level of English. He bought me my train ticket to Ella in advance. He has the cleanest house I have visited in Sri Lanka. It has memory foam mattresses which was perfect for my back.

The guest house features family rooms. I can really recommend this place! I stayed in a super nice and extremely clean room with a balcony and beautiful view of the hills. Big bathroom with hot water shower. The staff was very helpful and helped me arrange a tuktuk to go to Adams Peak at night. I have nothing to complain about!

The property has garden views. The guest house features family rooms. Loved the view from the balcony, the hot water shower was the hottest with the highest pressure in all of Sri Lanka! The food that they cooked up was some of the best I've had in Sri Lanka, especially the mushroom curry.

Offering a garden and garden view, RC AWKWARD is situated in Nuwara Eliya, 1.5 km from Gregory Lake and 5.4 km from Hakgala Botanical Garden. This guest house provides a shared lounge. There is free private parking and the property features paid airport shuttle service. Rajith is absolutely wonderful — truly a charming and attentive host and the place is very cozy. He welcomed us with tea and biscuits and was available at all times for anything we needed. We had to leave very early the next morning, and he prepared an amazing picnic box for us to take on the road. Always with a smile, he answered all our questions and made us feel completely at home. If we ever return to Nuwara Eliya, we will definitely contact him again. Highly recommended!

The units are equipped with a flat-screen TV with streaming services, a kettle, a walk-in shower, a hair dryer and a desk. Some units include a terrace and/or a balcony with mountain or lake views. At the guest house, all units are fitted with bed linen and towels. The hotel is in a very good location, close to the city centre and just a few steps from a superb restaurant, Themparadu. Room was pristinely clean and spacious even though we were travelling as a family of four. The service is just outstanding, we had to completely rearrange our plans due to very poor weather and the manager was extremely helpful and flexible. Communication and support was amazing since the booking til we left Nuwara Eliya. We went for a drive around the town due to poor weather and the driver was a super friendly companion and a good guide, including help on the train station which welcomed us with a closed ticket office and cancelled train.
