Hotels near Lake Gregory, Nuwara Eliya

A really lovely house, clean and in a quiet location outside of the centre of town. The absolute star of this listing is the host Shameera who is one of the best there could be. He’s incredibly responsive on WhatsApp and always on hand with great tips and ideas on where to go and what to do. His breakfast was also exemplary. Thanks for a great stay

We stayed at this hotel for one night and were thoroughly impressed by the excellent level of service. All members of the staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive. As we were the only guests during our stay, we received highly personalized attention. In addition, the hotel generously provided a complimentary room for our driver, which was a thoughtful and greatly appreciated gesture. The room was spacious and extremely comfortable for three guests, featuring one king-size bed and twin beds in the attic area. The hotel itself is approximately 150 years old and beautifully preserved, offering a charming vintage atmosphere in the best sense. Breakfast was of very high quality and served as a set course, which added to the overall refined experience. We highly recommend this hotel for guests seeking comfort, character, and outstanding hospitality.

This house is very peaceful and feels very comfortable in nature. The staff here are so friendly, they feel like family.

Nice hotel. Friendly staffs. Well decorated. However road to hotel quite narrow, not the easiest. Also had to wait for quite a bit for breakfast with our taxi waiting outside so we felt bad. They did offer tea to taxi driver though which was a really good gesture

Villa Mount Royal is conveniently located, offering easy access to Nuwara Eliya's main attractions, such as Gregory Lake, Hakgala Botanical Garden, and the tea plantations. Despite its proximity to town, it feels wonderfully secluded, making it an ideal spot for relaxation. The rooms are spacious, tastefully decorated, and equipped with modern amenities. I particularly appreciated the large windows that showcased the surrounding natural beauty – waking up to misty hills was truly magical! The beds were comfortable, and the bathrooms were spotless, with a supply of hot water to beat the chilly weather. The villa has a cozy common area with a fireplace, perfect for unwinding after a day of sightseeing. The garden is well-maintained, providing a peaceful spot to enjoy your morning tea or coffee. Free Wi-Fi was available, though I recommend disconnecting for a while to soak in the tranquility of the setting. The on-site restaurant served delicious, freshly prepared meals. Their Sri Lankan breakfast was a highlight – hearty, flavorful, and made with love. The staff was accommodating to dietary preferences, ensuring a delightful culinary experience. Villa Mount Royal is a perfect choice for those seeking a blend of comfort and natural beauty in Nuwara Eliya. Whether you're a couple looking for a romantic getaway or a family in need of a peaceful retreat, this villa ticks all the boxes.

We had an excellent stay at this hotel. The family room setup was perfect for us—spacious, well-designed, and very comfortable. The amenities really made the trip: we made use of the free kids' club, the heated indoor pool, and massages at the spa. The onsite restaurants also served fantastic meals throughout our stay. One quick tip for future guests: try to avoid booking a room on the first floor near the lifts. Since the restaurant is located on that level, there was a fair amount of foot traffic and noise in the evening. Aside from that, it was a perfect experience!

The hotel is set in a relaxing and quaint private estate designed to look like a scenic English countryside (which it successfully replicates). Staff are friendly and helpful. The western food at the restaurant is good, which is important as there are no other dining options nearby if you do not have a car/tuk tuk. Rooms are clean and comfortable. We were pleased with our stay

The hotel is in the city center, quiet, decorated in English style. Very polite administrator. Breakfast is delicious
