Loved everything about this place. The hospitality was great, the staff was so respectful, they packed my breakfast for me as I had an early departure, I was greeted with tea upon arrival and at my departure, my room was breathtaking with 2 stories. And it had such a lovely view. I for sure would stay there again.

A minor suggestion rather: offer tea first, meal & the fruit. They offer this in the opposite order. That aside, really lovely food!

Cleanest accomodation i stayed at. Great service, lovely personnel and very helpful. The host likes to help with his dad's tuk tuk services as well, but sometimes it’s not communicated clearly.

This hotel is in a fabulous location amongst tea fields with views across Nuwara Eilye. Great staff. Stairs are a bit dodgy for less than agile folk. No handrails with open sides

Bathroom had some weird smell, may be due to the weather conditions in such places, but was squeaky clean.

Hotel is in a quiet & good location, overlooking tea plantations and easily accessible to most sightseeing places. Staffs were kind enough to upgrade our family to a room on the higher floor when the tv connection had some issue. Breakfast was western, fresh fruits and string hoppers and was tasty. Extremely hospitable, kind, ever-smiling staff (Pasindhu and 2 others as well) who cook yummy food, as we also had fried rice & kottu for dinner at the hotel on 2 nights. Staffs are always helping out if there is any issue. The hotel has balcony to sit and have a peaceful chat and coffee. Breakfast area on the 2nd floor is beautiful and overlooks the tea plantations. Rooms were huge & spacious, with an upper deck, bathrooms clean and hot water flowing anytime of the day or night. Highly recommend if you want a quiet & relaxing stay.

Nothing - it was perfect !

Gorgeous hotel with a great view. Location nice and peaceful but not too far from the town. Shared dorm was incredibly clean - the bedding was incredible! The staff were super friendly and helpful. Food was yummy and was good to have coffee and tea in the rooms. Hotel also put me in contact with a Tuktuk driver who took me around for the day for a reasonable price. Would stay here again without a doubt.

This year, we visited Nuwara Eliya for the fourth time, and there was no question about where to stay. Of course, it had to be Mount View Single Tree again! The hotel exceeded all our expectations once more. The view from our window a balcony was absolutely breathtaking – tea plantations stretching as far as the eye could see, and a beautiful temple on the mountain. Hot water, good towels and bed linen, everything was perfect. We loved the Srilankan food at the hotel which was absolutely delicious. The staff were friendly and attentive. Our special thanks to Alex, the manager, who was not only professional but also genuinely kind and helpful. He was always ready to assist with any request or issue, making our stay even more comfortable. Highly recommend!

The duvets in the dorms did not covers.. so basically everyone is using the same thing without washing

The location was good.. in the tea plantations but still close to the centre

Beautiful hotel on top of a hill, surrounded by tea plantation! The place is clean and well equipped, we stayed in a private room. I recommend this place for a nice stay in Nuwara Eliya. There’s a tuktuk service to reach the city.

There was just one bathroom available to use so maybe if there was one more it would have been better but only a minor thing.

Really lovely staff who were so kind and helpful. The dorm room was really clean and the beds were so comfortable! Breakfast was really good and the location was really nice, up in the middle of the tea plantations, the view was stunning.

Nothing, I wish I could have stayed longer.

You Must stay here if you come to nuwara eliya. It’s CLEAN, has Hot showers, indoor slippers, fresh towels daily, lockers, Thick Comfortors & Duvet sheets to keep warm, beds felt like sleeping in a cloud, lovely free (really good) breakfast (toast, fruit, jam, sausage, omelette or traditional Sri Lanka pancakes & roti), available dinner options in case you don’t want to leave at night, the Kindest owner & staff who make the stay feel at home. Loved the living room common area, nice way to relax, maybe meet others. The owner helped organize tuktuks/tours depending on what you want to do and was very knowledgeable about the area. Very safe, even though it’s a 20 min walk from the city. As a female solo traveler I value safety and always hesitant if a place is outside in a more remote area, but this was perfectly placed away from the hustle, with elite, beautiful mountainous views and near view points/buddhist monastery. Lots of value for what you pay for & I highly enjoyed my stay. Also if you’re thinking of skipping Nuwara Eliya, don’t, it was worth a few nights and very lovely if you have time.

The beds in the dorms are quite shaky so you get woken up if the person above or below you moves a lot.

Loved the location, friendly staff and nice breakfast.

So clean, comfy beds, calm nature, great view, nice staff and a very pleasant vibe with the people who also were staying there. I really loved this place.

Nothing in particular, it has everything needed.

Amazing helpful staff and location just beautiful and walking distance through tea plantation to town. Breakfast was delicious be sure and try Sri Lankan pancakes! They also did our laundry for us for a small charge. Finally, everyone super helpful when we had tuktuk issues!!

Loved everything

Fabulous location up in the tea plantation but still within walking distance of the town. Elevated with great views and little garden.

Nothing. Everything was excellent.

Everything! From the moment I stepped inside the hotel, I was looked after exceptionally well. I was greeted at the front door when my taxi parked up outside. Alex couldn't do enough for me. He was so attentive and helpful. He arranged a tour the afternoon I arrived and organised a tuktuk for my journey to the train station. The room I stayed in smelt amazing as soon as I walked in and everywhere was so clean. It felt incredible using a duvet at night (it can get chilly as the night dawns in so the duvet was most welcomed). Felt like I was back at home. Breakfast was delicious. The best accommodation so far in my Sri Lanka adventure.

I heard a little music in the evening (it was Saturday), but not too loud, so it was not really a problem.

Beautifully located above the city, surrounded by tea fields, with lovely views. Short walk from small lovely buddhist monastery and top of the Single Tree mountain, which I both enjoyed a lot. I had chicken kottu for dinner and coconut pancakes for breakfast, both very delicious. I enjoyed the welcoming cup of tea upon arrival a lot, after a long journey. It is a nice accomodation with very attentive staff, I would happily stay here again.
