2. Magical Mountain Resort

Nallathanniya

"We booked 1 night at Magical Mountain Resort here on hotels.com. But apparently this hotel does not exist anymore and the one it actually is, is definitely not 3 star. When we got to the address, no signs for the hotel, so we asked around and it turns out that the hotel now is part of Punsisi Resort, which we never heard of or was informed on before arriving. After some confusion and the staff explaining that “Magical Mountain Resort” was once a hotel of its own, but now it is part of...

6. Slightly Chilled Yellow House

Nallathanniya

"There is a lot to like about the Slightly Chilled Yellow House. The staff was excellent - very knowledgeable and eager to accommodate any request. Breakfasts were very good and plentiful. The location is great - just 500m to the start of the Adam’s Peak trail. And there are other walks through tea plantations right out the door. The room was generally fine, though felt a bit tired - not run down, just not crisp. It also smelled musty."

10/10 Excellent

This hotel was the highlight of our trip. The property is located quite a ways from the main road, deep inside the jungle; however ‘going the extra mile’ is completely worth the experience. Upon arrival, the hotel staff greeted us with a ‘Welcome’ juice and checked us in our bungalow, which was located right next to the small river running by the hotel. The room is very spacious, with floor to ceiling windows. The bathroom is huge with both a shower and a jet pool. The environment is very...

This place is truly a hidden gem, and the staff is absolutely incredible! It should be on everyone’s list when visiting Sri Lanka. The owner is wonderful; she invited my friend and me for tea, picked us up in her SUV since our tuk-tuk couldn't make it up the hill due to an earlier accident, and welcomed us warmly despite our late check-in. She even called the staff in to prepare a delicious dinner for us, including an amazing spread of fried rice fit for a feast. The staff then helped drive our...

This small and charming hotel sits high upon the hill, overlooking a nearby village and the Oliphant Tea Factory. It's a quiet location, with stunning rooms - which is a welcome change if you're staying mostly in guest houses or big resorts. The staff goes out of their way to make sure everything is perfect, and the sounds and smells of nature were great - if you like the sound of birds chirping, this is a place for you. There's one tree with tons of them (they said 1,000 but I couldn't wrap my...

I arrived at the hotel at night. It was dark and snakey drive up to the hotel. Can't see much at night. However, when daylight comes, the place looks amazing. It is right in the middle of the tea plantations and I had the pleasure to see the lovely ladies plucking the teas. I hanged out at the lobby (which is outdoor) most of the time as it was raining during the whole afternoon. I did not went out during my stay except to the tea factory tour. This place is for nature lovers. There's...
