Top Galway Forest Reserve Hotel Reviews

Araliya Green City - Your Gateway to Everything in Nuwara Eliya

10/10 Excellent

"It was overall good and worthy"

Tathya Hills - Luxe Garden Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing staff, amazing service. Can’t wait to come back!"

Galway Heights Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel genuinely exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, our stay was exceptional. What really sets this place apart are all the intricate little touches that create those unexpected “wow” moments. There is an incredible attention to detail throughout the hotel, but it’s the staff who make the experience truly special."

Cloud Nine Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed just for a night as a stopover drive from arugam bay to Ahungalla. We had the family room which has two bedrooms, one with 2× double bed and the other 1x double bed. Had a fridge/freezer and a living room. No air conditioning but wasn't needed as the weather was already cold in nuwara Eliya. Breakfast included offered western (sausages, toasted bread and eggs)or srilankan food (dosa, sambal, eggs). Offered fruita and juice. Great location very high up on the mountain with a nice view of looking down."

Serenus Boutique Villa

"TOP LAGE! TOLLE Aussicht und die Wanderung um See bittet sich grad sehr an! Sehr erholsam Feines Frühstück"

Yara Nuwara Eliya

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was modern, clean, room spacious and decorated very nicely. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Hotel very central and can walk to main sights. Only issue we had was being locked in at night - glass front doors tied together with a bike chain lock! Although security were outside, I feel this was a concern if there was a fire and felt uncomfortable with this. Otherwise would recommend"
