Reviews of Lily Bank Cottage

Had a nice “cottage feel” about the place, with a cosy room with a comfortable bed. The shower was also excellent.

The accommodation is quite far from the centre, which made it difficult for us at times to go into the centre. We possibly would have liked some more blankets on the bed, considering it gets pretty cold at night in Nuwara Eliya. The WiFi was also awful (but the WiFi tends to be bad across Sri Lanka in general). In addition, I found it hard to get in contact with the host for anything I needed.

Room facilities were very comfortable Staffs very kind and helpful 😍 Highly recommend ❤️

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Wonderful Stay at Lily Bank Cottage!” Me and my wife stayed at Lily Bank Cottage in Nuwara Eliya and it was a truly pleasant experience. The price is very affordable compared to other places in the area. The cottage was clean, well-maintained, and had all the necessary facilities for a comfortable stay. The owner was very kind and helpful, making sure we felt welcome and cared for throughout our visit. The breakfast provided was delicious and fresh, which made our mornings extra special. Overall, a great place for couples or families looking for a peaceful and affordable stay in Nuwara Eliya. Highly recommend!

We absolutely loved our room! Everything was beautifully designed and stylish. One of the most unique features of this room—and the hotel itself—was the private fireplace. It was an unforgettable experience to enjoy a real fire in the middle of the mountains. Truly special! Breakfast was delicious, the room was spotless, and the bed was incredibly soft and comfortable. The bedding felt warm and cozy. Honestly, I can say this was the smartest and most well-thought-out room we've stayed in during our entire month in Sri Lanka.

Unfortunately, it was quite noisy in the morning. If you're like us and enjoy sleeping in past 8 AM, be aware that the area outside the window gets lively early, making it hard to sleep longer. Also, there were renovations happening in the neighboring rooms, which added to the morning noise. It's something to keep in mind if you're looking for a quiet start to the day.

The owner was super friendly and attentive! We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage is so cozy and homely. Perfect for a relaxing stay. Only a 10 minute walk to the centre. Highly recommend! Breakfast was delicious 😋

Felt safe and friendly approach

Very cute little cottage hidden in the hills. The host was very helpful and cooked a lovely breakfast for us. We wished we had longer to enjoy the room and to explore more of Nuwara Eliya.

The road to the place is steep but worth it.

I had an absolutely amazing stay! The room was incredibly peaceful and offered a real sense of safety and comfort. The entire space was spotless — very well-cleaned and maintained to a high standard. It was also impressively spacious, well-organized, and fully equipped with all the necessary facilities, making it super convenient. What truly made the experience special were the owners — they were extremely friendly and always ready to help with anything needed. Their hospitality made me feel right at home. This place is a perfect getaway to relax and enjoy your holiday without any worries. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a calm, safe, and well-facilitated stay!

Nice Cottage. Cosy Room. Good Bathroom . Comfortable large bed. Owner is very kind and helpful. He helped us to park our car also. Parking available. Breakfast also very tasty. Highly recommend ☺️👍🏼

Road is little difficult for a sedan car but can access.

Very neat and cosy room

One of the friendly hosts we have found during our stay. Very helpful. Recommended us good alternatives in terms of route planning and food. The stay is very comfortable as well. The fireplace is a very nice addition.

I had a great stay recently. Cosy and quite place from the city. Clean and well arranged room. Owner is really helpful and good person. Super comfy bed and hot water are available. I'd be definitely visit this place again 💚

Nothing

Clean and cozy accommodation, you get a mountain vibe in cool weather. The bed is a little bit hard but not terrible.

To the owner: It would have been nice to know the breakfast was not included before offering it. We also paid an extra booking.com commission which was not in the total price we had on our bill. We realized we paid the commission the host is supposed to pay to booking.com ...

Such a cosy place, room was comfortable and our host was so friendly.
