What a magical place. The best hotel we stayed in Sri Lanka so far. The views and the infinity pool are on point. Special thanks to Isuru, who guide us in a short hike inside the property and explained to us about the different herbs and the uses for each and showed us pretty nice viewpoints in the area.

It was all so great I don't even know where to start from. The staff were super helpful and friendly (every single one of them), the food was Michelin-Star-Restaurant level, especially the Sri Lankan options, the rooms were very very clean, spacious, and so comfy that it was extremely relaxing even just staying on the balcony and listen to the birds, without any other sound disturbing in the surroundings. We stayed in the Garden View Chalet, and it was wonderful to be surrounded by all that nature (no TV in the rooms, that's a big plus!). The yoga lessons and the massages were also great, especially the afternoon yoga sessions with Rahul. In brief, if you really want to switch off and actually relax and take care of yourself, skip all the other places in the Hill Country and stay here instead. :)

Stunning property up on a hill. A little cumbersome to get to (15 minutes in car or tuktuk for about $3 USD) but worth it. Incredible hosts. Comfortable bed, good shower, plenty of space for luggage, awesome balcony with view and nice chairs, and nice breakfast (half Sri Lankan half western, with a large lot of tea).

Lavender House is a charming retreat overlooking lush tea plantations, offering an experience that feels more like staying in a beautifully maintained private home than a hotel. The rooms in the main house are elegantly appointed with original furnishings, and the garden is impeccably tended, adding to the sense of serenity and refinement. We traveled as a family and initially stayed in two rooms in the main building. Midway through our stay, we were generously upgraded to their expansive three-bedroom villa, which features a private terrace, hot tub, and dining area. Though more contemporary in style, the villa offered an equally special and memorable experience. What truly sets Lavender House apart, however, is the outstanding hospitality. Under the expert leadership of Saman, the manager, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. Their attention to detail was remarkable—they anticipated our needs, checked in on us regularly, and even accompanied us on excursions. A special mention goes to Viduna, who took exceptional care of us throughout our stay. Dining at Lavender House was another highlight. Each day, Chef Shantha and his talented kitchen team consulted with us about our preferences for breakfast and dinner, crafting exquisite Sri Lankan and Western dishes as well as high teas. The level of personalized service was extraordinary, making every meal a delight. For relaxation, the hotel offers spa treatments that can be enjoyed either outdoors or in the privacy of your room. The masseur, Supun, is truly gifted—his massages were so exceptional that we booked four treatments during our stay. Highly recommended! The team also curated engaging activities that made our visit even more special. We embarked on two scenic hikes—one to a local waterfall and another to the breathtaking vantage point of Peacock Hill.

Location was very good; easy access to all the tourist attractions. It is a charming and lovely boutique hotel. Best of all, it was the exceptional service provided by every member of the staff. Everyone we interacted with was friendly, helpful and always eager to please and go beyond the call of duty. Special call out to Malintha and Dash who made our stay memorable. I would recommend this to my friends and family and would consider staying here again in my next visit to Sri Lanka.
