    The indoor heated pool was a perfect escape after our mountain hikes, and the children's play area provided safety and fun for our kids while we relaxed.

    succulent organic chicken
    breathtaking views
    morning tea
    child chaos
    dodgy service fees

    Ah, the succulent organic chicken at The Clovelly Kitchen was a treat! Add in the breathtaking views from our Deluxe Double Room, and the morning tea on the terrace was just the cherry on top.

    While the chaos of kids at the pool added some excitement, it wasn't exactly the serene escape I pictured. And who charges 30% service fees without clear policies? That felt a tad dodgy.

    great stay with minor room issues

    The staff were incredibly attentive, looking after our every need! ! They even played with our children, which made our stay much more enjoyable. The stunning mountain view from our Deluxe Double Room added a great touch to our experience. The location is perfect, nestled in a serene area yet conveniently close to the city center.

    The furniture in the room felt slightly outdated.

    stunning view
    poor service
    communication issues

    Stunning mountain view from the Deluxe room.

    During my stay, the service was noticeably poor. At breakfast, I experienced excessive wait times, with my omelet taking over 30 minutes to arrive and still not being prepared correctly. communication with the staff was frustratingly difficult. they seemed to struggle with basic requests, which greatly detracted from my experience.

    dining options

    The beautiful mountain view from the deluxe room enhanced the experience, complemented by a delicious breakfast featuring Swiss cheese. Friendly and professional staff ensured our every need was met, but the furniture felt slightly outdated, taking away from the overall ambiance. While the dining options were extensive, the wait times for service during busy hours were noticeable.

    mountain view tea

    It was just a great match for a short stay in Nuwara Eliya with great value. The staff arranged a lovely morning tea on the terrace with beautiful mountain views, which was a nice surprise. Check the menu prices in the restaurant before ordering.

    Breathtaking Views and Great Service

    The views from our Deluxe room were simply stunning, allowing us to soak in the beauty of the surrounding mountains. The breakfast buffet was incredibly varied, catering for every taste with fantastic options. the staff went above and beyond, offering insightful tours of the property and ensuring our stay was enjoyable. I wish there were more electrical sockets near the beds for charging devices.

    fine view

    Great stay for families

    The views from our room were fine and lovely! Plus, the breakfast buffet was out of this world, had dishes from all corners of the globe!

    It wasn’t exactly a budget option, but it was still reasonable, considering the experience.
