Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The view from our room was spectacular of the waterfall. Sat out on balcony each morning and evening enjoying the view. The Hillcrest is walking distance to town but is on a very steep hill They have Tuk Tuk available for rides into town. Staff was helpful. Breakfast was provided.

Stunning views, especially of the waterfall. Spacious and clean room. Our balcony was extra large! They served a very delicious breakfast for a good price. We actually enjoyed it more than when we ate in town. The internet was a problem though, it did not work or was so slow it was unusable, but thankfully we had a hot spot to take video calls for work. Would definitely recommend as long as you don’t need internet.

Liked the 5-10 min walk into town along the rail line. Room amazing view of hills - Ella Rock, waterfall, little Adam’s peak. Lots of birds on trees from balcony and mongooses in garden. Staff helpful. Breakfast (Sri Lankan) great. Had 2 double bedded room which was large and lots of space.

Nice hotel with great view to the waterfall and little Adam’s peak. The rooms are spacious, clean and nice. The balcony was big. If they did a little more effort with decorating the balcony and had some nicer furniture out there, it would be even greater. But great value for the money.

The view from the room balcony was beautiful. The breakfast was very mediocre, not warm and very appetising. No variety at all. The road really worried us. Staff were ok, but really not a quality hotel.
