Linda, Australia

The food! The chef and his crew made us the best and most tasty food of all hotels we've been so far in Sri Lanka. Staff was also really kind and the reception lady spoke really good English.

Nice place, friendly reception, good breakfast and fine room. A good place to stay a few nights, walk up Sri Pada and explore the beautiful surroundings.

Ewoud, Netherlands

The owner knows what his customers need, acting proactively.

Perfect location for climbing Adam’s peak. It’s facing the “right” part of the road as I discovered. Lovely balcony overlooking the beautiful forest. Hosts were great with their instructions for the climb and the food was delightful. Bedroom exceeded my expectations and was just what I needed after the long hike, very very comfortable and cute!

Karen, Australia

So close to Sri Pada start. Delicious food for dinner and breakfast. Lovely balcony and views. Courteous staff. I’d return.

Heather, United States of America

Modern place, good diner and breakfast, perfect location close to Sri Pada hiking departure.

Arnaud, France

Hugging Clouds is clean and comfortable and the staff are so friendly and helpful. The food is excellent - generous portions and all very tasty. The location couldn’t be better - just 300 metres to the beginning of the path up to Adam’s Peak. Highly recommended!

John, Canada

Great base for Adam’s Peak trek. Start of the trail is a 10min walk away. Room was large, comfortable and clean.

Cindy, United States of America

The place is super inviting and well decorated. We were welcomed by a complementary cup of tea, which was very welcomed after a long journey. The room was very nicely appointed, with a tv and a stylish palette furniture bed, which was a true double and not two mattresses pushed together! There was a sweet little patio with a bench and built in table outside. The bathroom was totally fine, good hot water after 15 min of switching on the heater. Breakfast was good and filling, nothing remarkable. Location can’t be beat, on the bus line in from Hatton (get off in front of the guest house, don’t wait until the last stop at the bus stand), and it was right in the thick of the shops and restaurants, about 5min from the start of the climb. Well worth it, would recommend!

I accidentally looked underneath the bed (looking for something that fell down) and it was quite dusty. Electricity might go off for short periods of time. For us it was no problem at all.
The hospitality was outstanding. We were the only customers because it is off-season to visit Adam 's Peak in June, but also due to the attacks in general we did not see many tourists. Every demand was taken care with a big smile. The family owning the business but also the staff were extremely helpful and you see that it is sincere. On the first night we were invited at Madu's House and his mother cooked for us. It was lovely! I think if you are visiting this place it is to climb Adam's Peak and you will be staying for 1-3 days. The guesthosue has all the facilities you require for such activity. Nights were very quiet and restful. Breakfast was delicious. Madu prepared Sri Lankan breakfast for us as well. If you want to feel like home, this is definitely the right place.

The shower had too little power so we had go for the cold alternative, which then flooded the bathroom as the hole was blocked. Food was ok but not great. No so great wifi in the lounge and no wifi in the room.
Great location, lovely dining area, flexible staff and help with the luggage.

“Friendly and homely place to stay for hiking Adam's Peak!”

We loved Hugging Clouds. It was a great hotel to stay in for climbing Adam's Peak/ visiting the Nathallaniya area. We really liked our room. We had a lovely balcony looking onto rainforest, and a spacious bathroom. The communal areas with sofas are also great for after hiking/ travelling. The food (breakfast and dinner) was excellent and some of the best food we ate whilst in Sri Lanka. We recommend the banana leaf curry and coconut roti. There was lots of tea to try too - great for after the long hike up Adam's Peak! The staff were really helpful, and gave us advice on climbing Adam's Peak as well as organising onwards travel. Thank you!! [Thank you also for running to find us on the bus as we were leaving to return the headphones I had left in the room - I was really impressed!! :D]
