The place was quite cozy and very homely, didn't feel like we were too far from home and that was great for anyone travelling with an infant like us. It was in a very convenient location as well and I think that's what got our attention and the price we were paying for it was totally worth it. Would definitely recommend the place to friends and family.

Iffy wifi (stopped working for almost a full day as they didn't charge it...). A window in the ceiling (with no curtain) introduces early sunlight. Probably not worth the price...

The location - 10min walking from city center, the service and rich breakfast. Electric water kettle in the room

We have had a good experience at The Trevene. The Staff was very helpful and kind. The bedroom was very clean with a comfortable bed. Breakfast was great too.

The hotel starts to feel a bit old but it is also part of the charm !

Super welcoming staff and very helpful. The fireplace was great for the cosy atmosphere of the room. Very English-cottage style great with the Nuwara-Eliya vibes :)

It was recommended to move to the green panorama. Facilities and room are fine but it lacks the coziness of the pictures shown on booking.com

Spacious room, good hot shower!

The tiredness of the decor. Seems a shame for it to be left in such a beautiful old colonial building,

The property was located slightly out the main town up a hill. Walkable, but a little scary in the dark at night time. We had a torch though. The room itself was big and comfy but a little outdated. There were what looked like stains on the ceiling, and the grout/sealant around the shower room looks grotty, but we were only there for 1 night so this didn't bother us and for the price we paid. The bed was extremely comfy and had a nice thick duvet and blanket on it for snuggling down in as the temperature was much cooler at night time in this area. The breakfast was in the hotel next door was basic - fruit, toast, cake, coffee. Not the best but not the worst.

The door lock of our room was broken and couldn't lock it properly. There was no hand shower in the bath cubicle. There was no balcony and the room.was adjoining a store room.

The breakfast was superb. The lady at the breakfast was warmly welcoming with a smile and she was very kind and helpful.

The host Mr. Dilruksha and the front desk attendant Shakeeb were very accommodating during my stay at the Trevene. The building is historic and has a quaint feeling nestled in the forest. Breakfast was great. Skip the Western options and go for the Sri Lankan food. Their chef is excellent and it was one of the best local meals I had on my journey through Sri Lanka. The location is within walking distance of the central bus station, Victoria Park, lakeside and great restaurants.

On the booking there was information about laundry service, but actually it is not available anymore. It's good that we double checked before coming, because we had to arrange laundry in another location.

The room is in a very nice house close to a park in a quiet street. The bed was very comfortable, and the room was very quiet, and in that area the air is cooler so no need in air conditioning. The Wi-Fi worked well, but could be a bit slow in the evening or if were in the room too far away from the corridor where the router was located. The bathroom was clean, but it was tricky to get warm water, because it was either hot or cold, so we had to "play with the settings". The breakfast was very good, so we truly enjoyed it. The staff members were very hospitable.

This is a beautiful building which is now tired and needs minor repairs and repainting. (Eg toilet seat broken, loose connection for kettle and lamp). Would prefer breakfast to be served in this property rather than the modern hotel next door. Evening menu was expensive pizzas and burgers only.

Friendly warm welcome from the host. Lovely terrace on the garden to sit on . Close to town . Good quality warm blankets.

Location

The attendant named Shakeeb was very polite, gentle and attentive. He was always there when needed

Because it is an old colonial bungalow the electrics and sockets are sometimes tricky and the price is on the high side

Convenient location, lovely welcoming family and helpful staff, good breakfast in the hotel next door, the most comfortable bed ever. Overall a great stay

The room was not very clean

The staff were very friendly. The hotel is well located not far from the centre of town but just off a quiet road. The hotel is an antique Planters Bungalow and most of its facilities are also antique. A good breakfast was provided in the hotel next door. We visited Horton Plains and saw wild deer. The entrance cost to Horton Plains on 1st January 2024 was 33,228.80 SLR (£82) for three people with the taxi and driver. Horton Plains has one of the dirtiest canteen (café) and toilets in Sri Lanka.

Nothing, it was all good

A very beautiful colonial bungalow super close to Victoria Park and the centre. The bed was very comfortable and the room very cosy. The breakfast buffet was great with a big choice of tasty food options. The hosts are incredibly helpful and kind. We really enjoyed our stay at the Trevene Hotel.

Can improve on food. Nothing else

The host is very helpful and manager shakeeb is very attentive and attends to all the needs, really appreciate the hospitality. It's a Colonial bungalow 150 years old property, so it has its own old world charm. The bedsheet pillows and towels provided are clean. The bathroom is maintained clean. Food is ok.
