Mirage Kings Cottage

Perched in the cool high-country of Nuwara Eliya, Mirage Kings Cottage sits in the historical district with views toward Lake Gregory and the Galway forest. It's a short stroll to Assemblies of God Church and Victoria Park, and minutes from Nuwara Eliya Golf Club, Pedro Tea Factory and Lover's Leap Waterfall. Family-friendly and disability-friendly, this cottage puts hill-country sights at your doorstep.

Housed in a rustic, 100+-year-old Colonial building once owned by F. R. Senanayake, the property spreads across two acres of gardens and cypress trees. There are 29 rooms — doubles, family rooms, twins and triples — with private bathrooms (showers and bidets), safes, desks, cable and daily housekeeping. Expect classic colonial charm, garden views and a relaxed, retro-hill vibe.

Recreation includes a 24-hour fitness centre, bicycles to rent, an arcade/game room, picnic area and well-kept gardens to explore. Concierge services and complimentary wireless internet keep things easy. Wake up to lake-breeze mornings and stroll straight into the Galway forest.

24-hour front desk and reception, safe deposit box at the desk, complimentary newspapers, dry cleaning/laundry and free self parking. A roundtrip airport shuttle is available for a surcharge. Wheelchair-accessible rooms and facilities support disability-friendly stays.

On-site restaurant and a bar/lounge serve meals and drinks, with 24-hour room service for late returns. Continental breakfast is offered daily (served 7:30–10:00 for a fee).
