What a stunning location and such a friendly and kind family! The rooms are absolutely stunning and the location genuinely unbeatable. You do have to be prepared to walk up and down a large flight of stairs to benefit from that beauty but it is totally worth it. The hosting family were extremely helpful, kind and thoughtful. We would not hesitate to recommend this place to any traveller looking for somewhere off the beaten track!

Nine Skies is the definition of boutique luxury. It is a small hotel with only 5 rooms and the service we received from all the staff was truly so personable this really felt like a home away from home. The design of the whole hotel is beautiful with a wonderful living room, with a cosy fire in the evenings, and our suite room was beautiful with a terrace. The pool has an amazing view over the tea plantation. All the meals we had were delicious. Our host was very friendly and helpful, organising day trips for us and setting up our own table with lots of candles for dinner by the pool one evening, and also set up our own private breakfast at a look out point which were both lovely experiences. This hotel is brilliant if you want a very quiet, secluded spot in the Hill Country with excellent service and food. It is an expensive hotel but it is worth the money.

The place is even more beautiful than the pictures. A very high level place even more than a 5 star hotel! The staff is lovely and very helpful, definitely the best service we received in Sri Lanka. The hotel has everything! Fun games for children, a pleasant pool, a heated jacuzzi, 2 saunas, a crazy gym and lots of other activities. It's a shame we only stayed 2 nights. We warmly recommend the hotel, we had a great experience there!

The Liyon Hotel was an excellent experience for my family. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms were very cleanly kept. The bathroom was clean and large, and the mini fridge in the room proved useful. The breakfast provided to us was exceptional and delicious. The hospitality of the hotel owner was commendable. The package is worth a lot more than what we paid, with such a good room and food for a very low price!

We really enjoyed our stay here, it was lovely to have the outside area by the rooms to be able to relax after a day exploring. We had meals here and found the selection of food and drinks great and food was always fantastic. We had our own tuktuk so found the location no worries. They were also fantastic at catering to our wee girl for meals / making adjustments for things she would eat. What really impressed us was the service from 1 particular person (I forgot to grab his name) he was outstanding - based in the restaurant down stairs but regularly checked on us while we sat outside and went above and beyond.

The room is beautifully decorated, spacious,clean and with an outside patio. Nice bathroom with great amenities. Pity the bath has the jets to serve as a Jacuzzi but only functions as a normal bath. Would have been a nice addition to the room. The staff are very attentive and helpful and we also enjoyed a great dinner. Can say I had the best curry whilst in Sri Lanka at this hotel.

We recently stayed at Andriyala, and I must say it’s truly one of the best places we’ve ever experienced. We booked the entire villa, including the suite, and everything exceeded our expectations. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived. We even faced a vehicle breakdown during our stay, and the team went out of their way to assist us with getting it repaired—something we truly appreciated. A special thank you to the chef for preparing the most delightful dinner and breakfast. The food was simply amazing. Cleanliness was also top-notch. The rooms and bathrooms were spotless and well-maintained, adding to the overall comfort. Everything about our stay was beyond perfect. We wouldn’t think twice about returning for another memorable escape. Thank you once again to the incredible staff!

Everything ! The place is amazing. It is charged with history and beautiful. You will find books and board games everywhere to enjoy by the fireplace when the sun goes down. The gardens are a dream. There are very well curated and you will be able to observe the birds nesting in the trees. And the view ! There is no words to describe it. It is breathtaking. Finally, what we enjoyed the most was the service. We are used to travel in luxury hotels and the staff of Thotalagala have nothing to envy to the most experienced staff. The food was really good and every team member was very kind and thoughtful. They gave us a free upgrade, offered us so many little attentions that I can mention everything in this comment. They are knowledgeable and flexible, they care for every little details, they are passionate about hospitality and genuinely caring about people. And at the end, that is the thing that matters. They are the one making this place feels like home and we hope to be able to visit them again.
