This stay exceeded our expectations! It has a more hotel-like feel and is super centrally located beside lake Gregory & close to Victoria Park. The staff were excellent and so friendly. We had a lovely breakfast and you can see an amazing sunrise over lake Gregory right from the building! There is an area for parking if needed. The room is super comfortable.

We had the most lovely stay in the Cozy Heaven. We got all the help we could have wished for and all the facilities were better than what we have experienced in Sri Lanka in the same price range. Thanks to our hosts for taking such a good care of us.

We had one of the best stays here in Sri Lanka so far! Our host Shan and his mum were super welcoming, kind and hospitable. They always made sure that we felt comfortable and at home. We got a free upgrade to their two-level room, which had the most amazing view over Gregory lake. There was hot water, thick bed sheets and the home made breakfast by his mum was sooo delicious!! My partner got a little bit sick, so they made us warm tea and some fried noodles for dinner. We felt very grateful for their kindness and can 100% recommend this place!

The accommodation is beautifully furnished. Very cozy and especially the atmosphere with the wood creates a wonderful mood. The owner also offers a transport service (pick-up from the train, or tours to various sights). We were given a very warm welcome and took a cooking class with the mother. It was soooo delicious. The best local food. (Every taste and request was catered for, we cooked vegan. We would definitely come back. Best accommodation on our entire trip in Sri Lanka.

Had the most amazing stay at woods hut with the lovely family of Wasanthra and Chithra at their home. The room was spacious and had everything you need, coupled with an unbelievable view on the balcony. They helped organise my plans for the duration, with breakfast & dinner if you needed! I would recommend staying here to anyone during your stay in Nuwara Eliya, you will have the best time!
