The view from our room was excellent and we really enjoyed the heated swimming pool. Food was overpriced at Sackville in our opinion

The hotel is located on a tea mountain, and it is still relatively cool, but the rooms are equipped with heaters. The whole room is very spacious, and the three beds are spacious and comfortable. The building next to it has a swimming pool, billiard room, sauna and massage center, and there is an internal shuttle to the activity area here.

Very luxurious hotel, very beautiful design. The indoor swimming pool is great. The restaurant design is also great. The room is not too big or small, with a small balcony for sunbathing or smoking, which is good

Nice hotel but dismal room, not up to 5 star standards. Very pleasant infrastructure and swimming pool. However, the cleanliness leaves something to be desired… The sheets in the room were full of blood when we arrived. They came to change them quickly after our request. The carpet in the room was also very damaged. The buffet meals were clearly not up to par with other hotels we had the chance to experience before. Varied choices but few tastes, tasteless… Please note, taxes and others are not included in the prices written on the drinks menu. In short, no value for money. This hotel is too expensive compared to the quality of the services offered. However, the staff was very pleasant.

The hotel is large, with all facilities, a beautiful garden, a swimming pool, a spa, and two restaurants. The view is pretty good, but something terrible happened. I had diarrhea that night, eight or nine times a night, and it was relieved after taking medicine.

Golden Ridge is a great hotel in the Nuwara Eliya area. It is newly opened. It is worth staying here to experience the different scenery in the mountains when you come to Sri Lanka's tea area🍵
