Maybe the road to get there and it’s a bit far outside without very close restaurants.

Everything good. Excellent breakfast and great hospitality

The house design seems to have an issue because you can hear loud whirring and whistling sounds from the winds hitting the roof. The spring beds are also a bit noisy too. Had a little hard time sleeping at night.

The place is a cozy home stay with almost everything you need. The views are also amazing. The highlight of the stay was the staff who were really eager to help and very resourceful. I'd like to come back for their hospitality.

Out of town

Our host was exceptional. Catered to our every need. Went for a ride on his new Tuk Tuk too. Breakfast was more than ample

Although the property was quite a long way from town, it was cheap to get there and it needed to be a distance away as the town was very lively and noisy.

The staff were amazingly kind and went all the way to make us comfortable. The breakfast was...delicious but HUGE! We had to take some with us. You get a choice of 3 cuisines but then you also get eggs, yoghurt, fruit, pancakes etc which was very unexpected. The accommodation was comfortable and it was very clean. Nusha was the perfect host, even arranging to send transport at the last minute to pick up our party of 6 from the train. Thank you for a very comfortable stay.

It’s a little off the beaten track.

Spotlessly clean rooms with great views. The staff were super attentive and kind. Breakfast was good too.

Nothing

We stayed here twice and are so glad we did. The manager Najvy is such a professional - attentive, knowledgeable and helpful without being intrusive. All the staff are excellent. We chose to stay in and have dinner as it was so good the first stay we knew we would enjoy it again - we were not disappointed - the cook is excellent. We would happily stay here again.

Absolutely nothing

We are so pleased we stayed here. The property is perched high on a hill a few klms outside Nuwara Eliya. From the moment we arrived we were spoilt - the staff are excellent, providing refreshment on arrival and assisting with carrying our bags to our rooms. The rooms were spacious with great bed linen and comfortable beds. The shower was good with supplied toiletries. There is a choice of 3 different styles of breakfast which was absolutely delicious, well prepared and served with a smile. We also ate there for dinner for 2 of our 3 nights - the chef is a great cook - the food was delicious and served hot and fresh from the kitchen. The warm brownie for dessert was so good we had it twice as well! This was a great find.

The road up to Misthill Rest is quite treacherous, but as we were in a car and had a driver, we managed it okay. Just something to be aware of ahead of arriving here. Also, the hotel was quite cold, but I asked for a heater which we had in our room for the duration of our stay. Just remember to take a warm jumper with you, as Nuwara Eliya is much cooler!

We had an amazing stay at Misthill Rest, the staff couldn't do enough for us and made sure that our stay was perfect. Upon arrival we were greeted with tea and biscuits, which was lovely. Our room with a balcony was wonderful and very clean. We booked to have our evening meal at Misthill Rest, the food was so tasty, and the portions were huge, we definitely didn't go hungry! They didn't serve alcohol on site, but the driver went to the shop for us so that we could have a beer with our dinner, great service! The breakfast was also very good as well, and the portions once again were very generous. They also provided free accommodation for our driver which was very much appreciated. I would recommend staying here, you won't be disappointed!

Nothing to not like! It’s just a bit tricky getting up to the property but well worth it.

Honestly this was my favorite stay out of all my hotels during 3 weeks in Sri Lanka. The property is beautiful and the rooms very clean, well laid out and cozy. But the thing that really set Misthill Rest apart is the impeccable service. Nusha, Mr. Najvy and the entire team is just top notch. Mr. Najvy was extremely caring kind and very accommodating to my driver. Kader. I appreciate that so much.

Felt slightly expensive for the amenities and room

Exceptional services by the staff - special mention to Najvy who chatted with us and had a lot of valuable information to share with us

The Manager did an EXCELLENT work. Everything was perfect, he and his team really went the extra mile and we had our best stay to date in Sri Lanka. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were absolutely delicious. Thank you for a great time!

All good

Great views in quiet location. Warm welcome by friendly staff. Spacious clean room..we were offered heater but didn’t need it. Comfortable beds with warm bedding. Good size bathroom with plenty of hot water. Breakfast was more than enough to start our day

The road to the villa can be a bit difficult for big cars

We had an amazing stay here. The beds were comfortable and the shower was hot. This was by far the best hotel breakfast we had (we selected the Indian and Sri Lankan breakfast). Highly recommend.

The floors and room were cold so come prepared with extra clothes. The road to the hotel is not paved so ensure you have an appropriate vehicle.

Staff were so friendly. We felt very well taken care of even though it was one night. The room was extremely clean and breakfast tasted home-made. Our driver stayed here for the first time and had only good things to say. He shared that he’s never been to a hotel where staff were so hospitable.

The steep dangerous lane to get to the hotel

The location was very challenging in getting to, but once there, we were welcomed by the manager and the cook who went above and beyond to look after our every need. We very much enjoyed the Sri Lankan curry chicken for dinner. Out of all the hotels we stayed in Sri Lanka, Mist Hills was by far the best.
