Incredible stay! Peaceful in front of the valley and tea plantations ! We just stayed 2 nights and was close enough to town only 10 min walking or 5 min tuktuk and you can find easily on pickme or the host can help you! We had a fantastic tuktuk driver! Superbe view for sunset sunrise and breakfast! We took the suite to be more cosy as nuwara can be cold/rainy! The room has AC, very well furnished good bathroom, very good breakfast, one of the best of our trip in srilanka! And most importantly incredible staff, very nice, welcoming warm and helpful! Thank you!!

The people hosting the guest house were definitely my highlight. Roshan, his wife and daughter were so friendly and helpful and always had a smile on their face! Roshan even dropped me at the railway station on the last day, which was super nice! The breakfast was very delicious and enough. The beds were super comfortable and the room very spacious. There is a shortcut to get into the city that‘s why the location of the guest house is also fine. Would definitely come back next time!

Staying at Bluechip Summer Bungalow was absolutely magical. The location, right in the middle of a tea plantation, and the beautiful British-style house surrounded by gardens make you feel part of Nuwara Eliya’s history. Our room was huge, with the most comfortable bed we had during our trip in Sri Lanka. The staff was extremely attentive and professional and the food was simply outstanding.They even arranged a walk for us to Lovers Leap waterfall, which is easily accessible from the hotel and was a perfect experience. A truly authentic stay in “Little England”. Highly recommended for anyone looking for charm, comfort, and a genuine atmosphere.
