Overall Ratings & Reviews Langdale Boutique Hotel by Amaya

Very nice time

Incredible views. Staff were really nice. The grounds were lovely. Guests were all posh English people. A nice place to stay in-between other styles of accommodation we explored in Sri Lanka.

This property was beyond our expectations. From the moment we arrived, the staff was friendly and attentive and accommodating. The room, the lounge, and the restaurant were unbelievably comfortable and well decorated. The pool area is gorgeous and the tea plantations surrounding the property made for the most amazing backdrop.

The staff are very friendly and accommodating, the place is in a middle of a tea plantation and it’s really beautiful location, few things to mention, on the hotel.com booking it’s says room with balcony, but found out the that deluxe room did not have balcony (wrong information) but management did move us into a room with a balcony, we didn’t had any extra power outlets so had to take off one of the lights to charge our phones and the hot shower had some issue that change the temperature every now and then, but we would love stay back.

Beautiful location and friendly staff. Loved the small hotel/bungalow atmosphere. The kids loved playing the piano and the pool. Dinner was superb. Quick hike to see the beautiful views, watch out for the leaches, rains might have brought them out. Still a fun experience.

Wonderful hotel with great staff, very friendly and beautiful views and rest areas. Only downside is that its 20 mins away from nuwara eliya main town so make sure you are looking for a relaxing break and not to explore other establishments.

We were greeted with very warm welcome. Restaurant staff was very helpful with menu item selection. The hotel is in a tea plantation setting with beautiful scenery all around!

Small boutique hotel with a beautiful garden set amidst a lush tea estate. Wonderful place to unwind, relax and go on leisurely strolls amongst the luxuriant tea bushes ...

Staff members were extremely friendly. Lovely view from the bedroom balcony . Food and service was excellent. Try the devilish curry. Well recommended.

Outstanding location right in the lap of nature. The staff was very helpful.. food and presentation was amazing. A very nice small luxury boutique hotel . The views from the hotel is just excellent, surrounded by mountains and tea plantations, away from the hustle of the city. Worth the stay !

The overall stay was fantastic and the place felt like home. Chef Tharanga made literally every curry we asked for and the staff were very flexible with any request we had. The only improvements we think necessary are: refurbish the seating area at the bar as it is outdated and uncomfortable; update the pool table as it is very small, shaky and old; update the alcohol selection as there was only one option of red or white wine available by the glass; add more international channels such as movies, music and news considering there isn't much to do in the outdoors; and should have at least one type of black tea in the room as not everyone drink green tea.Considering it is an expensive boutique hotel we are of the opinion that it is important to have a sense of luxury.

Our stay was excellent we loved it...the views and the tea plantation was very nice...the gardener of the property took us around the best spots of the tea plantation..the hotel staff were very helpful..the room was very big and clean...

The hotel sits atop a small plateau overlooking the valley which gives it a magnificent view of the surroundings. Lush tea plantations all around and pretty panorama towards the hills on the opposing side of the valley. The whole facility has incredible gardening and boasts some of the most finely maintained lawns I have ever seen. The lawn tennis court speaks for itself. Staff is skilled, friendly and alert. Food quality was quite good and the cook even managed to cook in the dark, when there was a power outage (they do have a generator, but that does not kick in immediately).

Set amongst rolling green hills with misty mornings and evenings to give it a beautiful cosy feeling

Stayed here for one night with my boyfriend and another couple while traveling throughout Sri Lanka. Very nice hotel on a tea plantation. The grounds are beautiful and well-maintained. The staff was very friendly and helpful at check-in. We took advantage of some of the amenities, including the pool, mini golf, and bar/pool table area. We did not use the spa, though they did offer many different services at reasonable prices. There is a restaurant on the premises, as the location is pretty isolated and there is nothing nearby. The prices seemed high for the quality of the food, and service was somewhat slow. We also paid for breakfast the next morning, which was ok but not worth the amount we paid (then again, given the location, there are not any other options). The room was very clean and nice, and the decor throughout the hotel really gives the feel of being in a colonial tea plantation. There are comfortable sitting areas as well. Overall, we enjoyed our stay though I do wish the food options and prices were better.

The staff at langdale is world class as if the setting. Lovely and quaint with enough privacy. Great value for money too! Highly recommend a visit and a must for Nuwar Eliya.

Terrible customer service, the so called luxury hotel lacks basic services and the staff is completely withdrawn and unresponsive. Don't even bother trying to call them or email them before getting there, you'll get nowhere. The view is the only thing good about the place, and you can just get that by driving by the area and stopping to enjoy the view. (Food was also good, in all fairness)

Good Surroundings

disappointing because too far from airport (5 hours) prelim with Srilanka is that the issue travel is below 30 KPH in general. People very nice and kind. this hotel has many facilities and spa is welcome with different option. Food excellent and top chief very open minded. good wine selection too.

This is a newly built hotel, which lacks many luxury items. For example it has shower curtains in the bathroom that touch you when you take a shower- yuk!! On arrival we ordered a gin and tonic, after waiting for 20 minutes I asked if there was a problem and was advised they had no tonic!! The afternoon tea on the first day was abysmal, stale cheese sandwiches and awful choclate cake, the next however it was much better. Only one waiter to serve the whole establishment, as you can imagine he is run off his feet, but they have 2 staff sitting on front desk doing nothing. Do not pay any more than $US 250 per night for the room or you will be very disappointed.
