Ambiance and Design: The property is a beautifully restored colonial-style bungalow with Victorian charm. The décor, spacious gardens, cozy fireplaces, and manicured lawns were frequently praised, creating a serene and luxurious 'home away from home' vibe.

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful luxurious heritage property. Everything from check in was up to the mark. The breakfast was amazing, probably the best that we had on our trip. Sanjeev, Lakshman and the entire staff are very efficient and will go the extra mile to make your stay memorable. Overall a beautiful property in an excellent location. Highly recommended

Hubby n self stayed for 3 nights in this delightful place. Small as not a sprawling estate but big hearted. Sumptuous meals, well kept comfortable rooms, picturesque gardens n simply marvellous service. Laxman is the one who holds this place together n fulfilled our every wish with a smile. Nothing is too difficult for him. The weather was great, took walks up into the tea estate adjacent to the property. Lovely views. Recommend this beautiful gem of a place with warm people to make ur stay in Nuwara Eliya a time to remember.

Located in the highest elevated tea plantation in Sri Lanka is the old colonial house the Oliphant. Literally surrounded by tea plants, this lovely boutique hotel offers peace and tranquility in an otherwise bustling island filled with busy lives. The staff here are friendly, respectful and eager to serve. Our three night stay was a joy that we will remember for many years to come. One recommendation would be to pack some warmer clothing as Nuwara Eliya has a very cool climate.

My family, numbering 11, spent a winderfully relaxing two nights at this guesthouse. Make mo mistake, this is a questhouse not a conventional hotel. The photographs can be trusted - the rooms and the grounds are quintessentially lovely. Lakshaman and his colleagues were very attentive and welcoming. The menu choices were great and plentiful. A terrific time was had. (Thank you Lakshaman Regards - Martin )

We've recently stayed at Oliphant and I would not stay anywhere else in Nuwara Eliya. The bungalow itself is utterly charming. Our room was very spacious with a high quality finish. Most importantly the staff were fantastic, they were friendly, accommodating and would do anything for you! I can't recommend enough.

Actual rating 3.5 The review sums it up...it's a cute colonial bungalow with a spacious garden...the room is well restored but was rather puzzled with the choice of tacky heat panels.... It's situated within a functioning tea estate though the factory is abandoned. There is also a view point, couldn't really find it though with the poor signage, but nevertheless had a nice short hike... The staff was efficient and experienced. The real downside was the food. Dinner was a set menu. The chicken was so-so and the margarita pizza was burnt... The breakfast (local option chosen) was slightly better, but extremely spicy (even for us locals) and with only a few accompaniments. The Google map directions are accurate and road is in good condition upto the bungalow. The rating is rounded up only because we found the place to be quite picturesque and charming....

Beautiful hotel in tea plantation area. Everything about this place wreaked history, the building,its environment. However for us one night was enough and if we had to cut one location from our 3 week trip it would be this one. Monmouth time consuming journey for very little. Although beautiful it was cold, which we knew when we booked , but the hotel was freezing. For the only time in Sri Lanka we found the staff a little surly . In fact after our evening meal , which was ok not memorable, we went into the ‘lounge area’ to play cards. This was 8.30pm, unlit fire , no one came to offer drinks or a blanket , the staff walked straight passed us and at 9pm turned light of and disappeared, we had no choice but to go to bed at 9.20pm.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel in Nuwara Eliya. The food was absolutely delicious, with a variety of fresh and flavorful dishes. One of the highlights was the beautiful tea plantation right next to the property, perfect for a peaceful and scenic walk. The entire staff was incredibly kind, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile. Their warmth and hospitality truly made the experience unforgettable. Highly recommended!
