Hill Pride City Hotel

i order bed and breakfast for the family for 2 days , they gave breakfast cheap but considering the price they charge , i thought that's it, but when i saw how they treat the foreign family with fruit plate and fresh juice for the breakfast, i was stunned.. if you book the place ,, asked for the same treatment as foreign and make sure .to prepare yourself for local treatment ..

Staff extremely friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Food was outstanding. Compact rooms but they have everything you need, including an extra blanket and heater. Showers are hot. Tea making in the room, though not many tea bags. For the price point I would say this is good value for money.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel in Nuwara Eliya. The hospitality was truly excellent – the staff were warm, welcoming, and very helpful. The food was delicious with a great variety of options. Highly recommend this place for a comfortable and enjoyable stay!

We were surprised at the poor rating goven by booking.com for this hotel- the hotel seems to be under new management and the staff could not do enough to make our stay special. Room was comfortable and clean the hillside view out of the window was charming. Evening meals were excellent as was the breakfast. A gem of a hotel for the price we would definitely stay there again.

The towel was torn which should have been discarded ages ago.Toilet cleanliness pretty average and hot water last few minutes before the shower finishes.Room is extremely cramped up and hardly able to walk around the bed.Toilet door is an absolute disaster.Main door lock is almost falling off.The only bright sparkle is the Reception Supervisor’Madushani’.Without her presence in the hotel this hotel will be a total disaster.She is courteous and always helpful and finding solutions and genuinely helpful.

Only a great experience or a terrible experience could get me to go online and leave a review, and this was not a great experience. For those of you who do not wish to read my rant, let me tell you this - only visit this place if you don't mind the subpar service and terrible staff attitude (this place is run like a YMCA hostel. "Hill Pride City Hostel" would be a more appropriate name). I was going to put this behind me and forget about my less-than-perfect experience because, to be honest, this is a great property! But Madhusha's (the Manager's) attitude at my checkout was the last straw, the cherry on top, so here I am wasting 15 minutes of my time. Good food, good property, good rooms, and reasonable prices BUT the staff attitude, their rules and regulations, and their unwillingness to be customer-friendly and flexible, are so off-putting and negate all that is good about this property. Day 1 - On the first day, I discovered that the gates close at 9:30 pm while I was attending a function in Nuwara Eliya. Interestingly, I had not been informed of this regulation during check-in, upon departure after check-in, or even when settling the advance payment. As I mentioned before, the operational style seemed similar to that of a YMCA hostel. Day 2 - It took a solid hour and a follow-up call to the front desk just to get them to send up a water bottle in the morning. Then, around 1:00 p.m, I decided to order some lunch. I called about five times, but no one picked up. Finally, when I got through at 1:15 pm, they told me that the kitchen had already closed, and I was out of luck for lunch. I tried again to order more water bottles because the one they sent in the morning was just 500ml. They said ok, but then, radio silence for a whole hour. After a follow-up call to check on the water situation, Madhusha casually mentions that they decided not to send any more water because they sent one bottle in the morning, and apparently, I'd be charged extra. Hey, I'm happy to pay, but how about giving me a heads-up instead of silently deciding not to send water? Communication goes a long way! Day 3 - Check-Out Experience: They say check-out is at 11:00 am, but I showed up at 11:30 am. Madhusha then tells me there's an extra fee because I'm 30 minutes late. It's not about the small LKR 500 charge (apparently, it's LKR 1000 per hour if you're late). It's more about the idea of punishing guests for being a little late, especially after not-so-great service. I asked Madhusha if she was the owner, and she first said yes. But when I didn't buy it and asked again, she admitted she was the manager. When I wanted the owner's contact info to give some feedback, she said no. Madhusha, congrats! You just earned your establishment a shiny negative review. You've missed out on a customer who frequently visits Nuwara Eliya, along with all the potential positive recommendations I could have shared. Hope the 500 Rupees was worth it.

Very basic hotel. Room had no Aircon, fan, or hairdryer and only one towel between two. The bed was damp and not very comfortable. There is no pool, no bar and no recreation or space to sit and relax. It has no lift a d we were on the 3rd floor and had difficulty doing stairs.

The ambience is good and simple. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Especially staff named vignesh and Clinton served very well and very kind . The food feels like home food. Better choice to opt for tourists stay.

The hospitality was very welcoming. I felt like i was at home with the way the staff members treated us. Always smiling staff members and also ready to address any issue regarding our rooms. The food was fresh and readily prepared. It felt like eating food at home. I'm so glad i went to this resort.

Very nice please to stay. Excellent customer care. Tasty food. Location easy access . Sanitary facilities are good. Calm and quite place with beautiful surrounding . Staff is very good and helpful. Enjoyed very much.

Hill Pride: Super place to spend a calm and quiet holiday with Super friendly staff from reception to restaurant. Great breakfast and great caring service. It was our second stay and we experienced your improvements.

Overall I am quite happy with my stay. Read about the water pressure problem in the reviews and was a little apprehensive at first. Turns out the water pressure was very good, at least in the 2 rooms my and my friend were staying in. Some room for improvement in the administration but I'm sure it will be better the next time I visit the hotel. I'll likely stay again when I come to the area again.

Excellent hotel & staff. Excellent facilities in the rooms. Receptionist Ms. Madhusha is a really good person and her coordination and communication is excellent. Food also very nice. Everything are perfect and attractive.

The hotel is very good, a good location and all the staff are very good, Chandana Nissanka, Indika ,Madushi, all of them work as a team and Indika and Nissanka are very friendly. The food is so good, really tasty and filling.Indika and Nissanka's food is delicious and they are the best cheff and nice good person.Madushi shi is very friendly and good.Bathrooms in the rooms of the hotel are very clean.Chandan he is doing good job and nice person.other thing who ever little boy I thing room boy he also nice and good boy and hard worker .They do good job and hard work at all I wish them good luck.

We stayed at hill pride city hotel NUWARAELIYA very best service highly recommended staff are very kind and helpful rooms are very clean & tidy WiFi very strong cabel tv channels olso receptionist miss/ madusha was very kind breakfast was very tasty with local dishes and western we will come again Thanks

We booked and went to this hotel not knowing what the outcome is. But when I was booking the hotel Manager ( Madusha) talk with me through out the booking and very polite and followed up on me till we reach there, on that confidence I predicted this hotel was good. However when we went there it was beyond our expectation. Rooms are inclusive of all necessities and very clean bathrooms with hot water and beautiful. And the chef there was great. Very humble and customer oriented. Food was really tasty. Even we got yummy deserts. Even our children were satisfied. Overall staf was great, helpful polite. Owner is great, can talk and alter any arrangement. I recommend this hotel to anyone. Great rates when travelling with family and friends. Best part is it inside Nuwara Eliya city, so you can go to carnivals and Gregory Lake and park in 10 mnts. So guys check this place 💕

Just outstanding in every way. The staff was wonderful, the breakfast and attention to detail amazing. The room was terrific. Walking distance to Victoria Park and downtown. Just wonderful. We highly recommend this place.

(Every staff) good hospitality there .very tasty breakfast I had there. Nothing to say bad there.i am giving 100% in everything. I would like to visit again .

Nuwara Eliya is a city in the tea country hills of central Sri Lanka. The naturally landscaped Hakgala Botanical Gardens displays roses and tree ferns, and shelters monkeys and blue magpies. Nearby Seetha Amman Temple, a colorful Hindu shrine, is decorated with religious figures. Densely forested Galway's Land National Park is a sanctuary for endemic and migratory bird species, including bulbuls and flycatchers.

This hotel not central in to Nuwara Eliya . Although there was no pool and the room was on the small side, this Hotel was outstanding in the service provided and quality of food cooked by the executive chef, Ananth. The owner, Trev, was keen to make our stay memorable.

We had an excellent two night stay here in search of highland endemic birds in Sri Lanka. The Staff was very welcoming, right from our local chai tea at the beginning all the way to our comfortable check out. The meals were great! It was my wife's birthday and I had bought some cake for her bday and asked them to put it in the fridge overnight. The next morning for breakfast they had rose petals sprayed over the table with the "Happy Bday" text. Very special!!

Hi, we planned for a short vacation with dad and came here for 2 night stay. I must say for all those people who love indian spices are gonna love this place. Staff here specially Mr. Rajarathna are very warm and serve you with so much love. Anything that you ask for, he will ensure that is served to you. Thumbs up for their food and hospitality from our side! Do visit this place guys

One of the best places to stay in Nuwara Eliya. The staff's superb. Food's delicious. Rooms, service and everything's in order. The room was good and comfortable. The view is nice and this is situated in a great location.

Hot water is on and off. Very cold at night (no ac), they gace my a heater. A 10 min walk to center (not a nice walk at night)

We only stayed for one night. It was a perfectly serviceable hotel for our purposes--a place to rest that was clean, had helpful staff, and a comfortable bed.

九日斯里兰卡游，唯一住宿不满意的地方，而且我们还住了两个晚上，房间最糟糕的就是总是莫名其妙的断电，热水器太小，一个人冲凉十五分钟之后就没有热水了！半夜特别冷，虽然给了两床薄毛毯，仍然被半夜冻醒，实在不是住宿的选择！房间倒是干净，6美元的早餐看着也很普通，我们没有选择，强烈不建议选择该酒店

One night that we spent there was something to forget. Main disappointments listed below : 1) No proper entrance to Hotel and no Car parking. 2) No elevators in the Hotel. Had to Climb 2 staircases after a long tiring journey. 3) The TV did not work. 4) No intercom facility in the Room. 5) The untrained staff tried to fix the TV problem, and wasted 1 hour of our time, but had to ask them to leave the room finally, as we were getting frustrated. The staff does not understand English. 6) Rooms are very small with not enough space to keep 2 large suitcases... very cramped up 7) Mosquitoes in the Room 8) The electricity went off frequently and there was no candle or battery lamp provided. 9) Due to the wind, there was some noise being heard all night which was very disturbing... was probably a door / window banging due to the wind. 10) Shower water did not have any force, and the knob which lets the water flow from the shower was loose, so water did not flow from the shower. One hand had to be kept on that knob constantly. 11) Hot water was intermittently coming without any force during morning time when guests in other room were probably also having bath. 12) No great view from the room. 13) To compensate for the inconvenience, the Manager offered to provide us free desert. But the desert was not good at all. We just had one bite of the desert and left the remaining. PLEASE AVOID THIS PLACE IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO SPOIL YOUR HOLIDAY !!

This is a nice, basic hotel with everything you need if you are not a luxury traveler. The rooms have everything you need but not as clean as hoped. The shower stream strength was not too good but the bed was comfortable. Location wise, this hotel is a little bit away, but walkable, from the race course / Victoria Park. The road leading up to it is pretty dark at night. But overall a decent stay if you are here for a day or two.

Good welcome from staff and room upgrade as hotel was quiet. All the staff were friendly and helpful Room was well furnished, but bathroom was cramped and access difficult. Breakfast was poor value. The dinner menu did not suit us, so we ate out. There was a problem with water supply to our room, that disrupted having a shower in the evening. The manager was very apologetic, and reduced the price in compensation.

A neat clean hotel with great service overall. Excellent breakfast. Rooms were tiny though and not well equipped. It was freezing and there were no heaters in the room. Also only enough hot water for 1 person to shower . Given this is in a cold part of the country surely heaters and more hot water would be a basic requirement. Expensive for what you get compared to our 3 prior hotels in other parts of SL on our tour. In fact it was certainly the smallest and least equipped hotel on our trip.

A very warm-hearted, comfortable and clean house with a gourgeous manager and a wonderful team. We really enjoyed our stay here!

We stayed just 2 nights. Hotel not easy to find but once you do find it you can walk in 30 minutes to main attractions in this city. Basic hotel, nothing special about it. No heating so if you travel in a period when is cold it will be quite cold to sleep three, although you can ask for extra blankets.

Awesome

Nice hotel, a bit out of the way, we had not realised that restaurant was not open for dinner, however staff organised a free lift into town for us!

Hotel had no boarding room option for our driver so had to pay out of pocket for another location for our driver. (Our other 5 hotels where we stayed on our trip had boarding options for free). Hotel staff lacked sense of caring or empathy towards us. Hotel was dirty, and didn't feel clean. It's location wasn't ideal either. We had 2 rooms, and one of them hadn't been stocked properly with toiletries. No elevator. Bad view. One of the room's didn't seem to have working AC.

Hotel liegt Zentrums-Nahe - 15min zu Fuß erreichbar, Gegend ist ruhig; Team ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit - sind extra für Frühstückspakete für Wanderung um 4 aufgestanden; Im Februar ist es kühl in den Zimmern aber es gibt Tee und Überdecken die helfen; Zimmer sind sauber aber obwohl das Hotel recht neu ist bereits einige Schäden in den Zimmern. Das stört allerdings nicht weiter, für den günstigen Preis ist die Leistung absolut in Ordnung! Für Nuwara Eliya genau das richtige Hotel!

Hotel was clean and comfortable with a friendly staff. It's close to Victoria Park and the city centre - within walking distance or a quick tuk-tuk ride. Freshly prepared breakfast was quite good.

Personnel tres sympa qui fera tout pour vous rendre service

Avoid this place at all cost!! No heating or hot water!! Hotel descriptions listed the hotel having air conditioning but there's was absolutely no heating. Also, hot water turned off after 5 mins and ended up showering in ice cold water!! A complete nightmare!

Conveniently placed for access to the centre of town and several attractions such as Botanical Gardens, Gregory Lake, Lovers Leap Falls, Horton Planes and Pedro Tea Plantation

Management was very friendly. Hotel located far away from any cafe or restaurant, all shops and cafes closing very early and no room service available in the hotel on evening time. Breakfast was average. Room was small and very cold. Housekeeping service not good, cleaning staff very lazy. Difficult to have a shower due to low pressure.
