HillCrest Villa  

In the cool mountains of Nuwara Eliya, this restored colonial villa looks out toward Hakgala Hill and Gregorie’s Lake. HillCrest Villa sits minutes from Lake Gregory, Moon Plains and Hakgala Botanic Gardens — a family-friendly mountain villa base for tea-factory visits and scenic hikes.

Housed in a fully restored two-story colonial building, the villa pairs classic architecture with a lively lobby and local touches. Four air-conditioned rooms feature LCD TVs, desks, private bathrooms with robes and daily housekeeping. Large landscaped gardens, a pool table and bicycle rentals add a playful, relaxed vibe.

On-site highlights include a restaurant, BBQ area, children's playrooms, a common TV lounge and concierge services. Free self-parking, car rental and an airport shuttle (available 24 hours for a surcharge) make arrivals easy. Wake up to crisp mountain mornings and garden views.

Express check-in and check-out, dry cleaning and laundry services, plus a roundtrip airport shuttle (surcharge). Complimentary wireless internet is available throughout the property.

The on-site restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, with cooked-to-order breakfasts daily from 6:00–9:30 AM (fee). Limited-hour room service is offered and the kitchen showcases local Sri Lankan flavors and hearty mountain fare.
