The rooms are so cozy and warm - the perfect place for how Nuwara Eliya is. The bed was magnificent and so comfy. The staff were exceptional - always on hand who help and with the biggest smiles. Breakfast was also delicious!

Review for Cabin 7000 Feet, Nuwara Eliya My stay at Cabin 7000 Feet in Nuwara Eliya was truly memorable! Located in Shanthipura, the highest village in Nuwara Eliya, it offers an incredible view of the hills and valleys—a perfect spot to chill and take stunning photos. The rooms were super cozy, making it easy to relax and feel right at home. The washrooms were very clean, and the separate kitchen area was a thoughtful touch, giving us the option to cook if needed. The food was absolutely delicious! We especially loved the beef deviled, grilled chicken fried rice, and the authentic Sri Lankan breakfast. Each meal was prepared with great care and full of flavor. A special shoutout to Mr. Roshan, who was incredibly helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. His hospitality really made the experience feel personal and welcoming. If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat with amazing views, delicious food, and a cozy atmosphere, I highly recommend Cabin 7000 Feet. It’s a place I’d love to visit again!

The architecture and design of this beautiful place is stunning. Malinda and his crew were simply the best in making sure all our needs were taken care of and we could not have asked for more.

Stefano

The property itself was amazing. The building is over 130 years old but excellently maintained. As a boutique hotel it only accommodates up to 11 guests at a time, making it a very homely experience, which we loved. The staff were absolutely excellent, going out of their way to make our stay comfortable. No request was too much, or too little. And we absolutely loved engaging with them. Situated near Nuwara Eliya it boasts some amazing views which we thoroughly enjoyed as we sat down for some tea (and it was some of the best tea we’ve had) or breakfast. As a small boutique hotel, food choices can be somewhat limited but their a’ la carte menu items, in our view, would meet most tastes. The food we ate was excellent quality with pastry items (bread, croissants, cakes etc.) made on the premises. These also were excellent.
