The shower and bed are really amazing like everyone says! Staff were so helpful and kind with anything that I needed. I stayed 3 nights just to rest and this was the perfect place to do it. I cannot recommend enough.

I stayed for one night passing through to Colombo from Ella. This was one of the most comfortable beds with a thick comforter! I had a great night sleep! Also the staff was so friendly, clean rooms and bathrooms, and huge lockers for all your things. Also the property was very secure and I felt safe. I also lost my cosmetics bag and the staff was helpful to search for it (even though we never found it). All in all, perfect for my one night stay!

The hostel was great! The beds are comfortable and the showers are the best ones I have had in Asia so far (even better than my shower at home). It is centrally located, which is very convenient. The hostel is not very social, but either way a perfect place to spend your time in Nuwara Eliyah!

Beds are so comfy like best sleep I’ve had in Sri Lanka and showers are so clean and actually hot. The hostel was full but there wasn’t exactly like a communal vibe. The staff were very friendly and sweet and helped us arrange transport. Right in the middle of town so like easy access to places. Only thing to note is if you are in the room next to the bathroom it is crazy loud when someone showers but with good ear plugs you will be fine🙏🏼

Perfect location, right in the centre and really close to the bus station. Staff couldn’t do enough for you and even put the Manchester United game on for me. It is very clean with incredible showers and really comfy beds. I even had a whole dorm to myself the first night. Only downside is it is quite quiet but I think that it will only get busier and more social as it is a new hostel.

Für eine Nacht ok, aber winziges Zimmer ohne Fenster, und unsere Zimmertür konnte man nur schließen, wenn man abschloss. Die Mitarbeiter waren alle irgendwie seltsam, aber nicht unfreundlich.

I had such a great stay here, the location was perfect- very close to all the main sights within Nuwara Eliya. The staff was so incredibly friendly and accommodating, answering any questions I had about the surrounding area and my further travels. The beds were comfy and the shower was one of the best I’ve had here in Sri Lanka. There’s also an area in front of the rooms to socialise. Would definitely recommend!!

Gutes Hostel für 1-2 Nächte. Alles ist sehr sauber und das Personal freundlich. Leider wurde um 7:00 laute Musik gespielt, obwohl einige noch schliefen. Die Zimmer sind extrem hellhörig.

La meilleure douche, et de loin depuis le début de mon voyage !! Incroyable L’hostellerie est petit et pas incroyable niveau confort mais franchement ça va. Très bien placés juste à côté de l’arrêt de bus et de tous les petits commerces!

Sehr sauberes Bad mit sehr schönen und warmen Duschen. Die Toiletten sind separat. Jedoch sind die Zimmer zu viert relativ eng
