Lock in a great price for Cottage San Francesco – rated 9.5 by recent guests!

to get started.

We were international group, Russian,Dutch,Kazakhstan and Sri lankans , stayed in one night. Bungalow is very clean, all rooms and bathrooms are 4 star rating. Owner, having wide international knowledge and experiences, knows how to treat guests an excellent way. Everything perfect! Breakfast amazing!!!! Through Booking .com I have stayed in more than 50 places for last 7-8 yrs, Cottage San Francesco comes under the best five places where I stayed. (Our special thanks goes to room boy . Still feel sorry, we couldn't give him a good tip).

Kualtunge, Russia

Really thoughtful and professional owner. Took care of our many and varied requests. Cozy place, outstanding view, but the location is a bit remote.

Becky, South Korea

New place up the hill, charming rooms. Very clean. Friendly staff. View on the tea plantations.

Ziad, Lebanon

Quiet and private Nice for relaxation Comfortable room with wooden floor

Devilhewitt, Taiwan

The service, the cleanliness, breakfast and the view outside.

Ismael, Qatar

Very comfortable and beautiful house on a hill in nuwara. It's recently built so everything is new and clean. Host is friendly. Guest rooms are big and suitable for family trips!

Yixin, Italy

The host is super nice and friendly, provided water bottle, heater, breakfast and cleaning services with no additional fees. Helped us organize our stay in Nuwara Eliya. The hotel is clean and the view is amazing.

Tara, Lebanon

Clean and they treat you like a family. The family lived abroad in Europe for a longtime and went back to live in Sri Lanka. So, they have European mentality when it comes to service. They make good food for all and you eat with them if you choose to and they treat you like part of the family. The location is amazing. Not far a way from center of the city but you get that amazing view uphill. Totally recommended.

Alijsaeed, Bahrain

The property itself is beautiful, located up on a quiet hill with a gorgeous view and amid small farms for some beautiful walks. It's all wood and cozy and unlike anywhere else I've stayed in Sri Lanka. The owner went above and beyond to make our stay our favorite of the trip, even helping us arrange a barbecue and bonfire for New Years Eve. He also took us to town every night to bring take out back to the cottage. The rooms are comfortable and clean, and the hot water is amazing. We also had the most delicious home-cooked breakfast. The property isn't quite done, and I can't wait to go back once everything is set up. We were a large, high-maintenance group, and our stay was flawless. You must go.

We loved the hospitality of our host. He did help us in anything we've asked for and prepared a very nice breakfast for us. Unfortunately we only stayed for one night. Wish we could have stayed more.

The rooms are very big and clean, the whole house looks just fantastic and more like a 4 Star plus Hotel than a guesthouse. There were warm showers for every room and really cozy and big beds. The owner speaks very good English and the breakfast was the best we had so far on our trip. We were a group of 8 and everyone was just amazed and wished we could have stayed longer than two nights.

“Very clean, spacious and comfortable bedrooms with great food and hospitality.”

A quirk of design but the internal lounge has no outlook which is unfortunate.
We struck a few days of rain while staying and were all very pleased to be in such a cosy and well constructed property (i.e. not damp which we found in some other places). Bedrooms are spacious and ensuite's well set up. We enjoyed gathering at the table for our evening meals (provided by hosts), both of which were delicious. Like many places we stayed in Sri Lanka, the access road is one lane, not paved and can feel a little more 'country' than most westerners will be used to. Being from NZ, this was not a concern for us at all - all part of the fun (and very low risk just to be clear). Due to rain we missed out on sitting out on the lovely terrace for the evenings which was unfortunate. Owners and staff were very considerate and went above and beyond when they did all our washing at short notice and no charge! We tried to pay but he would not let us. This was a huge help in the middle of our trip.
