Daffodils Inn

Netter Host mit tollen Tipps für den Aufstieg Gutes Essen

Jaya and his family were great hosts, knew the local area very well, very nice food and rooms. The Inn is very well located close to entrance to Adams Peak

Nice room and warmish shower. Nice staff. Cooking was decent.

Bit of a walk down and up with bags.

Hôte très gentil et serviable, merci.

Rien

Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt, es wurde auf alle Bedürfnisse Rücksicht genommen und am Ende wurden wir sogar vom Host mit seinem Tuktuk zur neuen Unterkunft gefahren.

Tæt på Adams Peak.

It was a very clean , affordable and very close to the sri pada starting point. The people running the business are so kind and clean but the breakfast can be a little bit improved other than that my stay was perfect

Perfekte Unterkunft, um den Adams Peak zu besteigen. Gastgeber war früher Guide und hat mich mit Taschenlampe ausgestattet und mir genau gesagt, wann ich am besten loslaufen sollte. Das Abendessen war super lecker.

Pohodlný jednoduše vybavený pokoj s pohodlnými postelemi, nedaleko od začátku výstupu na Adamovu horu. Příjemné společné prostory, dostačující snídaně.

Vše bylo vyhovující

Scored an upgrade to the brand new family room, welcoming tea and biscuits, which was nice after a long bus trip and also provided a mosquito repellent plug-in.

Sehr gut gelegen für Wanderung auf den Adams Peak.

In summary, these are the issues that we faced: -Discrimination based on physical appearance, skin colour, and language -Reaching conclusions based on unfounded hypotheses and past experiences -We only stayed there for less than 15 minutes, which was full of arguments, incorrectly insisting we stayed there one night, which is not true.

This is a extremely good place to stay if you want to go to the Adam peak. Its very close to the starting point, just few minutes walk. But in the very quiet area with view to the nature. The family is very nice and attentive.. The house is beautiful, calm and relaxing place. My room was extremely clean. The bed is new and i just enjoyed the long sleep in the silence before the climb. The bathroom is perfect size and facilities. Also they have family rooms in the up floor! Fantastic view and very spacious with 2 double beds. ( I was so lucky to participate the puja blessings for this rooms.) The breakfast was tasty, my favourite was the coconut pancake) Also you can ask for dinner what they will make no spicy! I just really loved everything in this place! The cherry on the cake it was seating in my balcony in the evening and watching the fireflies in the tea gardens with the stars! Also recommend to take one night before to climb to have a good sleep and if you have more time just stay one more night after the climb also.

I couldn't bring them with me to everywhere to have this polite, nice atmosphere everywhere)

Very close to Adam’s Peak, perfectly clean and comfy rooms, breakfast was plenty and very delicious, we loved the atmosphere with the little balcony and all the beautiful plants - big recommendation.

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt. Die Zimmer sind sauber und gepflegt, die Lage perfekt – nur wenige Minuten zum Eingang des Dorfes und nahe am Adams Peak, gleichzeitig ruhig und erholsam. Besonders schön ist der Balkon mit traumhafter Aussicht in die Natur. Die Mitarbeiter sind ausgesprochen freundlich und hilfsbereit, auch bei der Organisation eines Weitertransfers. Insgesamt ein idealer Ort zum Entspannen und als Ausgangspunkt für die Besteigung des Adam’s Peak.

Lage zum Adam‘s Peak Reichhaltiges Frühstück

Wifi funktionierte nicht

Very generous with the servings for dinner & breakfast, You will not be left hungry. Location was perfect if you plan to climb Adams peak. Just a 500m walk to the start of the peak. Really friendly staff who really were focused on keeping the propery clean.

No option for Wifi

We can wholeheartedly recommend a stay at the Daffodils Inn for the following reasons: Our room was functional and very clean; the location, set slightly back from the main road, is quiet—which is especially valuable given the specific sleeping hours required for a climb up Adam’s Peak—and the food is excellent. We’d especially like to mention our hosts, who were not only extremely friendly but also provided us with great tips for climbing Adam’s Peak and were very accommodating regarding our requests. For our subsequent transfer, our hosts put us in touch with Madusha, whom we can also highly recommend.

Really nothing.

Ligger perfekt til at vandre Adams Peak og meget sødt personale + kæmpe value for money!

Det hele

Sehr nette Familie die uns bei all unseren Anfragen geholfen hat. Sie haben uns mit der Wanderung zum Adams Peak geholfen, sehr leckeres Frühstück und Abendessen gekocht und unsere Wäsche gewaschen. Außerdem haben sie uns einen sehr netten Taxi Fahrer organisiert (Dhami), er fährt auch weite Strecke zu einem fairen Preis.

Super liebe Gastgeber, guter Ausgangspunkt für die Wanderung! Sehr leckeres Essen!!

Charming peaceful place. Very clean

Everything is great for the value, nice view from the balcony, really exceptional breakfasts, accomodarion is clean, bed is comfy with mosquito net.

In booking you can see that the property accept US dollars, in reality they have problem to accept dollars due to commision exchange fees to rupees (which is understandable) but It would be better to know beforehand, so people bring more rupees. We did not want to cause troubles we had to pay in dollars as we did not have enough rupees :( sorry

Sehr freundlich. Haben sogar Bier für uns eingekauft.

Sehr aufmerksame Gastgeber, geschmackvolle Einrichtung, zweckmäßig und gemütlich. Leckeres Frühstück nach dem Abstieg vom Adams Peak.

Sweetest family. Good food. Very close to Adams peak starting point.

L'hébergement est calme, je n'entendais que le bruissement de la rivière. J’ai été accueillie avec un thé, trop la classe ! Le petit déjeuner, compris dans le prix, était sri lankais et délicieux. Les hôtes sont très gentils et ont répondu à toutes mes questions. J’ai bien aimé le bâtiment et la déco. Il faut laisser ses chaussures dehors à l'entrée. Tout a été parfait. Merci pour tout. 😀

The staff were lovely, the rooms were clean!

The only thing to be wary of is that to access and leave the hotel there is a very steep pathway (which can be quite painful if you're planning to hike up Adam's peak or worse on your return from the hike). Location might be the only factor to consider!!

Personnel très gentil et serviable, bon repas, arrangeant, chambre confortable + balcon. Très très bien.

Malheureusement il y avait des travaux pas loin quand nous sommes venu. Mais bon c'est comme, la faute à pas de chance. 🤷

Wir haben hier eine Nacht übernachtet, um den Adams Peak zu besteigen, und die Lage dafür ist wirklich ideal – der Startpunkt ist schnell und unkompliziert zu erreichen. Die Zimmer sind gepflegt und gemütlich, sodass wir uns gut ausruhen konnten. Die Betreiber sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit, man fühlt sich sofort willkommen. Besonders hervorheben möchten wir das leckere Abendessen und das tolle Frühstück – perfekt zur Stärkung für die Wanderung. Klare Empfehlung für alle, die den Adams Peak erklimmen möchten!

Bardzo ładny obiekt, świetnie położony, znakomicie utrzymany i wyposażony. Bardzo sympatyczna i kompetentna gospodyni. Dobre śniadanie. Cena pobytu wręcz śmieszna.

Chambre spacieuse, propre, grand lit. La nourriture est exceptionnel. Les hôtes sont très gentil et serviable et souriant Direct pour la montée du Adam’s peak

Ras

Helles, sauberes Zimmer, gut ausgestattet, sehr nette Bedienung. Gutes lokales Frühstück und unschlagbar vom Preis.

Nichts negatives

Perfect stay for visiting Adam's peak. Everything is close by, the room is clean, with a warm shower, the bed comfy and the staff were friendly.

Good place just construction going on

The host and hospitality and good breakfast

None

Struttura utilizzata principalmente da chi si reca sul posto per scalare l’Adam’s peak e per questa funzione il posto é perfetto. Tutto molto pulito, personale cordiale. É a soli 10 minuti a piedi dall’inizio del percorso.

Tout était parfait

Good accommodation to hike the Adam’s peak. The hosts were extremely friendly and welcoming. Nice breakfast.

We had a lot of noise in the hotel due to construction works - no rest possible at all during day time until late afternoon.

Perfect familial house to have some good rest before or after the hike to Adam’s peak. The owners are extremely welcoming and professional. I had a nice rice and curry and amazing breakfast after the hike. Thank you so much for everything.

Sehr nette Familie mit super leckerem und abwechslungsreichem Essen. Vielen Dank für das Ausleihen der Taschenlampen! Spontan haben wir noch eine Nacht dazugebucht. Tolle Aussicht vom Balkon auch mit Affen direkt vor der Nase.

Insektenschutznetz könnte etwas größer sein, allerdings waren ohnehin keine Insekten da.

Sehr kleine und feine Unterkunft. Der Inhaber lebt richtig für guten Service und man sieht im wirklich an, dass er spaß an seiner tätigkeit hat. Tolles Essen abends und perfekte Ausgangslage für den Aufstieg zum Sri Pada. Gemessen an dem Preis ein wahrer Geheimtipp!

Sehr freundliche Gastgeber. Tolles Frühstück, eines der besten. Ebenfalls leckeres Abendessen. Und perfekter Startpunkt für die Besteigung des Adams Peak.

Nichts

Hotel que fica na casa dos anfitriões. São muito simpáticos e prepara uma comida deliciosa. Estão sempre prontos a a ajudar e inclusive emprestaram-nos lanternas para subirmos ao Adam's Peak.

Lovely family homestay in Dalhousie. The hosts went out of their way to make us feel very welcome and provided us with good information. The host also went out of his way to help us out with transport to and from Hatton. Room was comfortable and clean and breakfast was great.

Nothing

Krásné a čisté ubytování za příjemnou cenu. Milý a ochotný personál. Při příjezdu jsme dostali čaj a sušenky. Byla možnost objednat si večeři, které jsme využili. Toto ubytování velmi doporučuji!

Studená voda.

Perfekt für den Adams Peak. Sehr freundlicher und hilfsbereiter Gastgeber. Tolles Abendessen und schöne neue Zimmer.

Perfetta posizione per partire a fare il trekking dell'Adam's Peak. proprietari di casa molto disponibili. ci hanno offerto acqua e torce per la camminata ed una colazione una volta tornati dalla camminata.

Lenzuola colorate.

De guesthouse ligt vlakbij de start van de Adams peak. De host kookte (lekker!) eten voor ons, lokale keuken, maar eens iets anders dan de dingen die we meestal voorgeschoteld krijgen. Aanrader!

Langer dan een nachtje moet je hier niet blijven want in de omgeving is niet zo veel te doen.

Beautiful house, beautiful people. Many thanks for everything, your kind help and advice for Sri Pada traverse!

La amabilidad del dueño, nos trajo un té con pastas de bienvenida. Para la subida al Adams Peak nos prestó capas de agua y linternas.

La struttura migliore in cui siamo stati durante il nostro viaggio. Camera bellissima e arredata molto bene. Qualità prezzo ottima e pulizia fantastica. Cena e colazione ottime. Perfetto per fare la scalata sull’Adam’s peak. Proprietari gentilissimi, ci hanno dato indicazioni e consigli sulla scalata e inoltre ci hanno fornito le torce per la notte.

This was a perfect place to stay for my hike up Adam's Peak. The family was very hospitable, making me feel very welcome. The room was a great size, and it had everything I needed, including a nice view. I highly recommend staying at Daffodils Inn.

It's very near the entrance to the hike up to Adam's Peak. When our driver cancelled our ride back to Hatton in the morning 1 hour before departure due to heavy rain, the owner quickly orgnlanized another driver for us. I left a carton of fruit juice in the terrace and monkeys came to snatch it while I was away, so do not leave anything outside :)

There wasn't really any hot (or warm) water in thw shower.

I liked everything there! The owner was so helpful and nice. Place looks very cozy and it is even better in real life. Room was really nice, bathroom as well - everything was clean. I looooooooved the food there!!! It was plenty, and sooooooo goooood!! Honestly, the best food I had in Sri Lanka. And every day we had something different. And comparing to restaurants nearby it is really in good prices. I hope to be back there one day!

This was probably the best accomodation I had in Sri Lanka. The family is very friendly and helps with everything. They made my stay at the Adams Peak perfect. First of all, the owner helps to arrange a Tuktuk service to the bus station for a very fair price. Additionally, he just borrowed his lamp to climb the Adams Peak in the night. Whenever we had a wish, the family helped us. And the food was gorgeous and vegan friendly. I can definetly recommend this accomodation and I will stay there for sure when I am coming next time.

We loved our stay here!! The hosts were very kind and offered to pick us up for a good price from Hatton as we arrived in the rainy season and the direct bus didn‘t go anymore. When we arrived we got offered a nice cup of tea and the host took us with the tuk tuk to the entrance of Adams Peak as we wanted to climb it the next day. He explained how to start and where to go as he was a guide himself before. After we got served delicious dinner from his wife which was really fantastic. We were able to borrow a rain jacket and a torch (the torch wasn’t very light, I had my own from home. As we were not in the main seasons there were no lights at all. For the main seasons the provided torch would be enough). The next day after our hike we enjoyed a hot shower and breakfast was already waiting for us. We told them we love string hoppers and they made them for us <3 The property was also really clean and I have to say again the hosts were so helpful. Thank you very much for this stay!!

Everything was perfect

Great location to Adam’s peak :) great breakfast after also !

Very comfortable place, huge and nice breakfast, super clean, good position :) We spent only one night here, on our way to visit Sri Pada (Adam’s Peak) and we really enjoyed the stay. Highly recommended

The food was amazing!! Great room, the staff was so kind, I loved it!

Very friendly staff and great breakfast. Perfect location to the Adam’s peak trail

There’s is nothing to mention

After our Adams peak sunset hike we had the most delicious spread of curry and rice cooked by the hosts. It was by far the tastiest curry we had during our month in Sri Lanka!

We spent one day at the accommodation, and it was very pleasant. The room was clean and comfortable, and the staff was friendly. We were impressed by the traditional Sri Lankan breakfast – freshly prepared, delicious, and full of local flavors. Highly recommended!

I liked everything about Daffodils Inn. The most remarkable is the kindness of the owners. I really appreciated the packed meal at the end of my Sri Pada hike, when I was rushing to get to Kandy. Noteworthy as well is the cleanliness, which was perfect. This is a homestay where they clearly pride themselves on quality.

A great place to hike Adams Peak! Its a 10 min walk away from the start. The room was clean and felt spacious. The bed was massive and very comfy. I had dinner and breakfast aswell which was delicious, definitely stay here for the hike!

I had the BEST stay at Daffofils Inn. The food, breakfast and dinner was absolutely delicious. The owners were so kind and helpful. I stayed 3 nights to recharge, connect with nature and chill. Thank you for everything!

Bathroom is modern and clean. Easy, helpful, and reliable communication with the hosts on transportation arrangements.

This accommodation was perfect for climbing Adam's Peak. I walked from there to the start of Adam's Peak (takes around 10min). The staff is super friendly and food is great.

Even though we stayed only one night at Daffodils Inn for our Adam’s Peak hike, we really liked the place. Hiruni took great care of us — her kindness and attention made us feel very welcome. She even helped arrange a taxi for our return journey. We had a delicious vegetarian dinner and breakfast, and the room was nice, clean, and comfortable. The bathroom was spotless with a good flow of hot water, which was perfect after our hike. Thank you for an amazing and memorable stay!

Nothing.

Big house with parking space. The room and bathroom were a good size. It had a balcony with beautiful mountain views. Comfortable bed. Quiet area. Awesome breakfast, the best we had in any guesthouse in Sri Lanka! Nice, accomodating staff. They welcomed us with a cup of tea. There is hand soap in the bathroom.

The shower didn't have much water flowing. No shower gel or shampoo. The pillow was a bit too thick for me, but that's just personal preference.

While the room was comfortable and clean, all reviews praised the family’s hospitality but, after early afternoon check-in, everyone disappeared and not a single person ever came to check on the guests. Dinner was not offered, lights in common areas were off so, like a couple in another room commented, it felt like we broke into somebody’s house. There was no hot water in my room so the couple let me use theirs and the internet did not work at all. At (truly amazing) breakfast, the daughter was super sweet but no explanation was given about the previous night.

The best breakfast we had during our 2 weeks in Sri Lanka

Very welcoming hosts, delicious meals! Perfect location for starting Adams peak - 10 minute walk from the inn. Clean rooms, would stay again!

It was a nice place. Simple breakfast and tea when I arrived. Great for hiking Adam's Peak.

Perfect for a night stay to climb Adams peak. The meals were delicious. They serve breakfast after we were back from Adams peak which was very convenient. Its about a 10min walk from the start of the path.

Gorgeous little guesthouse with such welcoming and helpful hosts. The dinner was exceptional! The best food we’ve had in Sri Lanka so far. Perfect location to climb Adam’s Peak. The guesthouse was super clean and modern, massive beds. 100% recommend!

Everyone who worked at Daffodils Inn were incredible. The food was some of the best that we have had in Sri Lanka and the hospitality was amazing. The location is also really good to walk Sri Pada/Adams Peak as you can walk to the trail from the Inn.

We loved everything

Perfect location to climb Adams Peak Very friendly family Gorgeous dinner for good price

A bit noisy trying to get sleep before early morning arise for Adam's Peak climb

Great breakfast served after the hike! The room is away from the main street so very quiet at night.

The staff was not very available, we had to go look for them in their private rooms to ask for questions. There was also some miscommunication between the owner and the staff.

Great location. Great host. Very good breakfast. Nice views of nature.
