Unique Cottages

The hotel is ok for folks passing through town. It has the feel of a B&B but the service of a hotel. Staff was friendly. The room was clean but dimly lit. The bedding had some stains and was a bit tattered. The temp got pretty cold at night but that is just a warning to anyone traveling in Nuwara Eliya and not a reflection on the hotel. I saw some of the other rooms they had and those were much better. We stayed in the Rose room, which they said was the delux room, but the other rooms looked much nicer. Breakfast was nice. This is a no frills hotel. Not luxury but still pretty good.

Unique Cottages is very much in theme with the town of Nuwara Eliiya’s roots of being built and established by the British, in their traditional style. It is like an old English cottage with high beams, cottage gardens, bookshelves, wooden stairs etc. Dinner was selected from a set menu, The continental breakfast was excellent with fruit, coffee, toast and jams and a cooked component of sausage, beans and omelette. The room and bathroom were both clean and spacious, room had a nice little balcony overlooking the street. I liked it was close and walking distance to the main part of town, and lake Gregory allowing a walk to get to know the town a little. There was only me and one other party of four staying, so as solo traveler I would’ve liked something more lively but if you’re looking for a B&B type arrangement close to town, this quiet place has the right ambience/vibe. (Alcohol is not served and house rules do not permit consumption).

Nice boutique hotel. Service and amenities can be improved Pros Friendly staff On time service Clean rooms Beautiful garden to relax in Close proximity to the main attractions Room for drivers Cons *electric Heaters not working *Dim lights in some bathrooms *If a menu of food that can be made by the cook is provided it could be helpful while making meal decisions

It is a small hotel but very nicely done. It is super quite and exactly what we needed . Enjoyed every bit of it. Stayed only for a day. The staff was very helpful and professional . Will certainly recommend

This is my 4 th stay here, amazing place to be, clean, the most nicest staff and so helpful, most of all the place is so quiet and exactly what I needed, We ordered a rice and curry for lunch, one a the best rice and curries I’ve ever had, oil free and so healthy, will be visiting soon again, Makes us feel at home!

We had a nice stay at the cottage however this was ruined by being wrongly accused of breaking the bathroom window handle off by the owners. It would have taken a considerable amount of force to actually break it off instead it came away when we were closing the window as can happen with wear and tear items. We've stayed at many rental properties across the world and have never had any issues and hassle like this before. We had a lot of upset trying to get our deposit back and the communication and help from unique cottages was very poor, they don't respond to emails. We were eventually only given a portion of the deposit back and not the full amount. We would NOT recommend staying at this cottage but it you do be sure to check all of the wear and tear items such as window handles, toilet, shower, carpets, appliances, fire etc as soon as you arrive and report straight away to unique cottages with photo evidence to avoid the same treatment that we received from the owners. You shouldn't have to do this but we deem it essential! The property was also damaged by a recent storm and it kind of felt that we were almost paying the price for this.

Perfect place and service :)

我們非常享受住在這所不大但充滿奇趣且精美的房子裏。從大酒店到這間小房子的轉變也令人欣喜——這裡有乾淨整潔的房間和很棒的服務。在一些細節的地方——比如全天候免費的茶、咖啡和巧克力，都讓人覺得很人性化。隨點隨到的精美早餐則讓你不用飛奔去自助餐吧。這裏距離市中心不遠，步行便可以到各個餐館和維多利亞公園。總體來説是個很棒的酒店！希望能再回來。
