- Udaya Wickramasinghe (8/5): A Place to relax - Location was good although need a car to get to town. The immaculately kept garden and space around the cottages was the highlight of this hotel. Our stay included breakfast. Buffet limited in selection but we couldn't ask for more. Rooms were clean. Staff was great. Whenever we wanted anything like a refill of toiletries they were there to assist us in a flash. I cannot exactly remember if I asked for a quiet room during the booking. The 3 rooms we got was in front of the car park. It was noisy with cars, vans and even trucks loading a broken vehicle. It made or stay less comfortable. However I request 3 adjoining rooms which as honored.
- Nelum (10/5): - It was amazing! We were glad to have the opportunity to extend our stay at Mirage Kings Cottage. Beautiful landscaping, perfectly maintained gardens, with an breathtaking view from the clubhouse was soothing. We stayed in the Queens suite with two huge bed, which was spacious and spotless. Having the opportunity to take join the Sinhala/Tamil New Year celebrations and games was an added bonus. Looking forward to go there again!

- wim (8/5): - Impressive atmosphere and nice staff Value for money
- Rita (9/5): Es war ein Privileg, in einem solchen Haus mit einer so gepflegteGartenanlage übernachten zu dürfen. - Ein sehr schönes, altehrwürdiges Haus im Kolonialstiel mit entsprechenden Schlafzimmern, die mit antiken Möbeln ausgestattet sind. Das Badezimmer ist sehr schön und praktisch eingerichtet.
Die Gartenanlage ist wunderschön mit herrlichen alten Bäumen und vielen Pflanzen und Blumen.
Ich bin sehr froh, dass unsere Zimmer im alten Teil waren. Was mir persönlich nicht gefällt ist der neuangebaute Teil mit dem Restaurant. Irgendwie passt er nicht zu dem schönen alten Haus im Kolonialstil
- Maximilian (10/5): - Lovely hotel with a great atmosphere. Clean rooms, helpful staff, and nice food. Would definitely visit again
- Mikkel (10/5): - Excellente expérience. Endroit paisible, chambres propres et personnel très gentil. Nous avons également apprécié le petit-déjeuner.
- Sivikasha (10/5): - Excellent experience. Peaceful place, clean rooms, and very kind staff. We enjoyed the breakfast as well.
- Sivikasha (10/5): - Wonderful stay.The garden and lake view were amazing. Rooms were spacious and very clean. Staff were very helpful.
- Rajapaksha (10/5): - We had an excellent stay in Nuwara Eliya. The hotel location is superb, and the garden is amazing. From the garden we could enjoy a beautiful view of the lake, which made our stay even more special. We stayed in one of the cottage rooms, and it was spacious, comfortable, and very well maintained. The overall cleanliness of the room was excellent. The staff were very helpful and always ready to assist guests with a smile. Their hospitality made our experience even better. The breakfast was absolutely delicious with a wide variety of options to choose from. Overall, it was an excellent experience, and we will definitely visit this place again. Highly recommended 😊
- Sammaanie (5/5): Not worth for money they should have been cleaned better - Location and the staff were great. The welcome and support was great. Breakfast was good. Room wasn’t soundproof could hear everything from the corridor- door was swinging/playing a bit due to wind. Bathroom was a bit smelly. Pillows were smelly. TV was on a side hard to watch.
- Trupthi (9/5): Pleasant stay and it’s a beautiful property with such greenery. The restaurant and buffet spread was also very good. Ver - Lovely property and great staff!
- Richard (6/5): -
- Sophie (5/5): À éviter - La bâtisse et le jardin sont magnifique.
. L’intérieur est vraiment vieillissant et aurait besoin d’une bonne restauration.
Le personnel vous court après pour être payé. La piscine doit faire 2mx2m. Le rapport qualité / prix est déplorable.
L’évacuation de la douche de la chambre 5 se trouve à l’extérieur de la douche !
- Partha (6/5): - The surroundibgs All tgw rooms were defective we changed roons 3 times!!!!
- Hattan (8/5): Great value - Layout if the hotel Cleaning was not done professionally, the didn't change the sheet, just reorganized the bed.
No AC or fan in the room. Windows don't have mosquito nets.
- Jason (10/5): Wonderful place with great gardens - Wonderful gardens. Great service. Thank you Nothing. It was all very good
- Arunn (8/5): Lovely stay - Friendly and attentive service Buffet choice was limited and although the hotel itself was beautiful, its location was a bit difficult to find

- Ivana (8/5): - Das Hotel hat einen gewissen Charme und sehr schönen Garten, der zum Entspannen einlädt. Das Frühstücksbuffet ist vielfältig und reichhaltig. Ein Plus ist ebenfalls das Clubhaus und Gym im Hotel.
Die Lage ist super zum spazieren und erkunden, für ins Zetrum ist man aber auf ein Tuktuk angewiesen. Das ganze Personal war überaus freundlich und aufmerksam. Durch das feuchte Klima und Regen hatte das Zimmer manchmal einen etwas abgestandenen Geruch, wo wir immer wieder gut lüften mussten.
- Abhijit (5/5): - Ok type cottage. Nothing exceptional Rooms & kitchen needs an upgrade.
Serves cold food in buffets.
Not at all value for money.
The room contains very basic amenities.
Garden facing rooms have smoking zones in front of room, causing discomfort.
- Sulakshna (8/5): - Charming cottage. Green spaces Heater not that efficient
- Laura (7/5): - Tiene gimnasio, pero no hay agua ni toallas En la habitación hacía frtii y la estufa era muy pequeña para caldear la habitación. La cena y el desayuno regular para el precio del hotel
- Emma (8/5): - La struttura è molto bella ed immersa nel verde, ha un giardino molto curato. Buona e varia la colazione. L’arredamento della stanza potrebbe essere rinnovato e migliorato, inoltre, purtroppo si sentono molto i rumori esterni.
- edoardo (9/5): Posizione comoda e struttura adatta alle esigenze di un viaggio di coppia. Molto confortevole e comoda. Consigliato. - Staff molto cordiale e camera spaziosa.
Quotazione e cena a buffet sono molto abbondanti e di buona qualità, a prezzi ottimi Il costo della notte è leggermente più alto di quello che secondo noi avrebbe medicato il posto
- Reshan Maduka (7/5): -
- Najmuddin Dhilawala (7/5): -
- Edwin (8/5): Great hotel, luxureous feel - Good hotel with good restaurant and clean, spaceous room. (We had the Kings Suite family room.) Also nice that there is a bar and recreational area (games, pingpong, pool). Manager was very considerate.

- Tedley (8/5): Sentimental - The beautiful garden & the heritage of the accommodation location
- Dhananjanie (6/5): It was a mediocre stay as it wasn’t comfortable as expected. - Location is beautiful
Breakfast buffet was great. No hot water ( hot water stopped after 5 mins even though we allowed time for the geyser to heat up between showers). Hotel asked us to leave 10 mins gap between showers, however we gave it 20 mins gaps yet had to take ice cold showers which was absolutely disappointing and unacceptable.
No bath mats considering the floor was cold and no hot water. No wash towels or hand towels. Only two bath towels were provided.
- Annmarie (4/5): Very old and dated - The garden Check in staff were very unfriendly. The rooms were old and dated - there was a smell of damp in the room - breakfast was very disappointing and again room was very dated- would not recommend

- Ciaran (10/5): A wonderful experience - The staff here are so attentive and so accommodating. It is a really wonderful experience to stay here because of the staff. Another aspect is that the gardens are so beautifully maintained and the heritage cottage itself is stunning. The rooms are spacious with a wardrobe space and seating areas and the bathrooms are ample in size also. The property is in a beautiful location and it is a lovely 20 minute walk into the town. The kitchen oven buffet evening meal and buffet breakfast which was delicious with a wide variety of choices.. I couldn't find fault.
- Amit (5/5): Passable -
- Tissa (8/5): Very good -
- David (10/5): Exceptional -
- Magdalena (6/5): - This hotel was just average. The grounds and gardens around the hotel were beautiful and well maintained, but they can do a better job with the interior. The sheets had tears in them and the towels looked very worn. We were also informed that the wifi would not be working during our stay. All the rooms are located in one building, the walls are very thin so you can hear other guests talking and doors closing. Staff was wonderful!
- Satyendra (10/5): We enjoyed - Location and courtesy of staff Good
- Isis (9/5): Superb - Very nice food and lovely rooms.
- Natasha (6/5): Pleasant -

They lit a fire for us when they don't normally because of our special request and made our stay so comfortable and always helpful and kind.

The staff were veryyy friendly both the reception officers as well as resturant staff. Even the manager was very kind and looked after us very lovingly. We just soent one night but wish we could have stayed for longer but due to lack of time failed to do so. Would recommend ordering for a la carte menu rather than having buffet for dinner.
- Bhati (9/5): Superb -
- Aditi (9/5): Enjoyable and memorable stay. - Beautiful location, well maintained gardens with beautiful flowers, friendly efficient staff. The hot water supply in bathroom was not satisfactory given the cold weather. The food quality needs to be looked into.
- Ahmed (9/5): Superb -
- Landescape_viagens (9/5): Green and silent place - It is a beautiful lodge in a beautiful location, 10 minutes walking distance from city center and near some nice eateries. Clean, green, big enough for groups (I travel with 12/13 people each time) with enough twin rooms. Nice restaurant and breakfast. everything was fine

- Abigail (6/5): ok - staff were lovely. breakfast buffet was great. wifi was awful. The telephone to reception and iron didn’t work. I felt like everything in this hotel was broken.
- Anonymous (7/5): Good -
