Guest Reviews
- Shiran (1/5): They offered a breakfast that any person would reject without thinking twice. Not even a water bottle - The owner is bit ok. But everything else was disaster including the breakfast. So far the worst hospitality service and breakfast ever had in our life The owner is bit ok. But everything else was disaster including the breakfast. So far the worst hospitality service and breakfast ever had in our life
- Nat (6/5): Nice enough for a night - Nice location as long as you get a tuktuk up the hill! Perfect for a nights stay, maybe not prolonged. Offered nice blankets if you get cold at night. Organised a tour for us. But we told him our train at 1. He assured us that the tour starting at 9 would be fine as it would only take 2/3 hours. We did the waterfall and one tea plantation but had to rush back as we had to get our train, which meant we missed another tea plantation and the strawberry farm. It was quite disappointing as this was the main purpose of coming to nuwara eliya. That said, the tour guide was lovely.
People next door had a cooking class in the evening, which was fine except that you have to go through the kitchen to the bathroom, so showering was a little awkward shuffling around the 4 people in the kitchen trying to cook.
- Patrick (6/5): - Nice host, very helpful. Access to kitchen was great. Good location. Not the cleanest.
- Maria (6/5): - Família encantadora i servicial. Esmorzar molt bo. Ens va costar molt trobar la casa, es troba lluny del que és el centre de la ciutat.
Quan vam arribar al migdia estava tot en obres i per netejar, cosa que ens va espantar una mica. Però quan vam arribar al vespre semblava una altra casa, les obres ja havien acabat i estava tot més recollit.
A les 8h del matí tornaven a estar amb les obres de fora de casa i l’obra donava a la finestra de l’habitació on estavem.
- TOSHIYA (6/5): 良くも悪くも、地元の人の家に泊めてもらうという雰囲気 - いかにも地元の人の家に泊めてもらうという雰囲気だった。スタッフは親切で、Genius Benefits で朝食込だったのも有り難い。 -設備や清潔感は地元民レベルだったので、自分は平気だが、旅慣れていない方にはお勧めし難い。
-朝食を8:00にお願いしたのに、実際に出てきたのは8:40だった。
- Alice (10/5): - Nice home in a quiet area but only 10 minutes to city center, clean, friendly staff and good breakfast All good
- Peter (8/5): - The owners Gayan and Lakshi were just the nicest most helpful and happy people. A few small issues were dealt with immediately. Lakshi cooked us a wonderful dinner and a delicious breakfast. There is a large lounge room to elaborate in and a.lovely garden outside. Definitely budget accommodation but very comfortable. I would definitely stay again. Not that well sign posted so we had to call to confirm we were at the right place but that's a small concern. It's a shared bathroom situation just for.info.
- eric (7/5): - Endroit atypique destiné aux routards.
Il y a 2 chambres et un coin canapé,collectif.
On y a fait une belle rencontre.
Pedro et son neveu sont supers, gentils, et très serviables.
- Jeanne (9/5): - The place was very nice, we felt like home.
- Tomáš (6/5): -
- Vince (8/5): - Cute little getaway. The couches in the common room were very comfortable and the surrounding garden was beautiful.
- Lorna (8/5): - Very lovely hosts, helpful and very informative about the area. Room and facilities were basic, but clean and all you needed. Breakfast was included, which was a lovely bonus and the accomodation was a very reasonable price. House was cold, the same as all accomodation in Nuwara Eliya, so this is to be expected, but we got blankets and had a comfortable night sleep. I would recommend this place if you are on a budget, as it is very good value for money compared to other accomodation around. They also have two lovely dogs, which were adorable!
- Carlotta (5/5): -
- Dip Axom (10/5): Good Price, Good place, Good Host - Host is very helpful and breakfast is really good. As per the price, it's best. This Geyser is not suitable for such cold place.
Bed is not very comfortable. But manageable. As per the price, it's okay.

- Paula (10/5): Lovely home stay - Lovely home stay!
The owners are so nice! We highly recommend asking the cooker for dinner and breakfast. He cooks everything himself and everything tastes delicious.
Also they we very kind and always willing to help, arranging tuktuk if need it :)) The shower didn’t work very well, a bit too cold!
- Marta (7/5): -
- Niall (8/5): Good - Nice room for the price. Nice hosts. Good facilities. Good view.
- DARIA (10/5): - Very good location and very cozy place, We spent only 2 nights here, we really wanted to stay longer. Special thanks to the owners of this wonderful place. We will definitely come back again!
- Alexandra (10/5): Amazing people , amazing food, amazing dogs ! - Every thing !!
We needed a quiet and peaceful place to rest, and that home was feeling just like home. Nothing !
- Hatamoto (5/5): 値段相応 - 犬が可愛い。
徒歩圏内 窓開けっ放しでハエがいっぱい。
シャワーの調整が激むず
- Tanita (9/5): - food was amazing and prices very good, host and their animals are very nice... unlimited water due to water filter
great value for money it was freezing... the blanket helped a lot but maybe a little heater or hotter shower would make it perfect
- Cristina (10/5): Naturaleza, sencillez y calidad humana. - Los anfitriones son estupendos me compartieron recetas, música e historia local. También son muy divertidos y tienen un jardín precioso.
- Livia (10/5): Incredible stay, never wanted to leave! - Kept on extending and staying longer because of how great the stay was! The food was incredible, the breakfast very generous. Such a lovely home stay in a peaceful area with a lovely garden to get fresh fruits from!
Our host went above and beyond to make us feel at home, offer suggestions of activities and hiking trails, and answering all of our questions.
Would go back in a heartbeat!
- Isabelle (10/5): Lovely budget friendly homestay that will make you feel right at home - Gayan and his family made us feel right at home here. We really enjoyed everything about our stay: the area is good for going on walks, the homestay itself is in a beautiful garden and you’ll hear lots of frogs at night! They have the most adorable dogs and cats. It’s a good value for money and the food is delicious! We did a cooking class and it was amazing! Master Coconut Sambal makers now ;)
- Matylda (9/5): - The owners are very kind and helpful people. Also their doggos are fantastic:)
- Maren95KathDro (10/5): Absolutly Cozy - Einfach perfekt: wunderbare Unterkunft, der Host schafft es sich hier einfach wohl fühlen zu müssen. Wir haben es geliebt - vor allem den Roomservice fürs Essen, da hat man sich direkt wie zuhause gefühlt :)
Hier stimmt einfach alles: es ist sehr günstig, ruhige und doch nicht weit von Zentrum entfernte Lage, wundervoller Garten (wir durften uns an den Früchten bedienen), sauber, ausreichend Platz, ein junger Host, der immer Lust auf ein Pläuschchen hat und geduldig alle Fragen beantwortet und Infos rund um die Stadt, die Berge und das Land gibt, sehr gutes Essen und wundervolle Betten zum Schlafen.
Danke für diese tolle Zeit! Meckern auf hohem Niveau: das Wasser kann mit einem Boiler erhitzt werden ist dann aber eher lauwarm - da es abends hier sehe kühl ist kann das schon unangenehmer werden. War aber nicht schlimm, dann wurden die Haare eben mal untertags gewaschen ;)

- Fenlon (9/5): Lovely stay a short distance from town, the people are so kind and welcoming, I would highly recommend for a few days hi -
- María (10/5): 10 de 10 - Los propietarios son más que amables, te ayudan en todo lo que necesites, desde organizarte unas visitas a las fábricas de té, como darte propuestas de qué hacer.
La comida está riquísima!
Las habitaciones son humildes pero comodas y limpias.
En la zona común pudimos relajarnos y conversar con otros huespedes, que fueron super amables.
Está a 7 minutos al centro en un cómodo paseo. Todo muy bien!
- Romée (10/5): Perfect - This little homestay is amazing! The location is just a small walk out of town and the owner helpsnyou with everything. Food is amazing too!
- Nina (10/5): - Homestay in the middle of a beautiful garden. Very close to the city centre but still very quiet.
Run by Gayan and his lovely family who go above and beyond to accommodate.
Be sure to try their homecooked food because it is simply amazing.
Pretty sure the best accommodation to find in Nuwara Eliya Nothing
- Bastien (10/5): - L'accueil est extraordinaire, la famille est vraiment pleine de bonne énergies et de joie de vivre 🙏✨ Absolument rien, nous avons vraiment adoré le moment passé chez Pedro stray

The room was comfortable, breakfast was tasty, Gaya and his wife were incredibly helpful with everything. It was a great experience. Gaya even helped me with train questions after I had left. Nothing
- Hannah Sophie (10/5): Der Aufenthalt war für uns unbeschreiblich schön - Das homestay ist wirklich nur zu empfehlen.
Es hat alles was man braucht und man kann innerhalb von ein paar Minuten in die Stadt laufen.
Die Lage ist super um sich zu erholen und bietet viele Möglichkeiten für Ausflüge.
Die Hosts sind super herzlich und wir haben uns direkt willkommen gefühlt.
Wir haben gemeinsam mit den Hosts gekocht, insgesamt fünf verschiedene Currys. Das war ein wirklich tolles Erlebnis und wir haben einiges von den beiden dazu gelernt. Der gemeinsame Abend war kulinarisch unbeschreiblich und auf menschlicher Ebene mind. genauso schön.
Sollten wir nochmal nach Sri Lanka kommen, werden wir definitiv wieder in dieser Unterkunft schlafen.
Nochmals vielen Dank für diese tollen zwei Tage.

- Vishwa (1/5): Worst stay ever - Nothing The room was too small.no furniture inside the room except for the bed.the curtain of window was transparent so the privacy was not adequate.they have mentioned that there was a private kitchen but that was not true.we had to stay hungry at the night as they didn't allow us to cook there.there was no hot water.guys stayed at the other room were shouting all the time and we couldn't even sleep peacefully.he tried to take extra money from us which was not mentioned in the email sent to us by booking.com.this was the worst experience ever.
- Gökhan (10/5): - Hostel has a peacefull atmosphere and in a beautiful garden. You feel like you are in a small forest. Foods were so delicious. Owners are really nice people. They are all really interested in answering your questions. We felt so happy there and enjoyed the silence. Beautiful people beautiful nature beautiful place to stay! Thanks for all!
- Rosie (10/5): Lovely stay - I had such a lovely stay here! The hosts are warm and attentive. I arrived tired after many days of trekking and I was very kindly welcomed. The space is cosy and clean and has everything you need including hot water. It is separated from the main house and is quiet and private. Central to town and the bus station. They also prepare delicious food. Highly recommended
- Aaron (10/5): - Very kind host family! The food they served me was delicious. It's a very nice homestay with beautiful garden. The room is comfy and clean. I really enjoyed the quiet location but still it's just a short walk to the city center. Highly recommended It was all good
- Galkatiya Gamage (9/5): - Simple and relaxing feeling
- SUWINDA DISHAN (1/5): -
- Hill (10/5): Tranquil and cosy. The owners are super lovely - It was a very homely feel and nice furniture and household. Hot water was nice There was no wifi but not terrible
- Sabrina (9/5): - Die Lage war super schön! Wenn die Sonne rauskommt ist es ein Traum! Super nette Gastgeber :) Lieben Dank!
Wir haben das Wetter in den Bergen etwas unterschätzt. Das kann natürlich der Gastgeber nichts dafür! Sie haben uns sogar eine zweite Decke gegeben! Und Pet-Flasche mit heiss Wasser füllen und an die Füsse gibt schön warm ;)
- chamil (1/5): They canceled last minute when I arrived Nuwara eliya. - They canceled last minute when , I arrived Nuwaraeliya.
- Sidsel (10/5): Hjælpsomme, søde. Alt i alt fantastsik - Sødeste personale. Vi havde den hyggeligste aften, hvor vi snakkede med værterne hele aftenen, hvor de fortalte om kulturen. De byder en velkommen og man føler man er en del af familien. Virkelig gode til engelsk og hjalp os med at komme til toget. Derudover laver de lækker mad til virkelig billige priser. Man
- Andrea (10/5): Amazing Place in Nuwara Eliya - The position in the Mountains Is Amazing. The hosts are lovely. The food Is home made and delicious. I want to come back Just know you Better! Thank you guys!
- Maria Jose (10/5): - Lo que más me gustó fueron los anfitriones, nos ayudaron con lo que necesitamos, eran amables y agradables.
El alojamiento me encantó, el jardín es super bonito y está muy bien ubicado. Cerca del centro, sin el jaleo de la ciudad. Además también está cerca de la naturaleza. Nada
- Byorn Jacobus (9/5): Just amazing! - The last two days I stayed at Pedro Homestay. Its up a hill and it’s realy nearby the center of Nuwara Eliya.
I really liked the place where I stayed! There are nice details, de collors are great and it’s surrounded with a nice garden.
The hosts and their food was just amazing! They were very kind, helpfull and fun. After I took a dinner, I liked it that much, that I asked them voor a cookingclass! They teached me very well and we had a lot of fun together!
I am sure you will like this place!!
- Paulina (7/5): - Super nice owners, good location, siple but everything you need. We felt save there A bit dirty, dust, spider web, no mosquito net
- G (8/5): We enjoyed a lot staying there! Good place to relax and meet both locals and fellow travelers! - The location is great, away from the hustle and bustle of the town, with some nice views and the garden. The pictures don’t give justice to the vibe of the place.
The hosting family is lovely, a lot of fun, helpful, and nice to talk to. They have two big dogs that are super sweet. There is a kettle and free coffee and tea! The place was clean and comfortable too. It can get a little cold but ask for extra blankets. The place would gain in atmosphere if there were some smaller, warm and cosy lights-but that’s pretty much everywhere in Sri Lanka:)
