We found this hotel very clean and comfortable with good air-con in the rooms. We were staying half board and therefore dinner was included. We were on holiday here to try traditional Sri Lankan cuisine and were therefore a little disappointed that our only option was Chinese food on the first night. On Sri Lankan New Years day morning we... More

This hotel is a bit old and tired. The rooms were just ok. The food served was very ordinary and not a lot of it! 3 beans, 3 pieces of carrot and 3 French fries accompanied a small piece of chicken in the meal we had. Better places to be had in Nuwara Eliya.

Fourth night at hill country.I thought this place looking colonial and they are giving fifties memory of srilanka. My feeling with this place ok. But not the real colonial type hotel.Mixing with modern and colonial structure.Room was very large and dark.Furniture and decoration not giving colonial or modern standard of hotel.I think we ware only guest in the hotel.Dinner and...

On the whole, ok where accommodation & location are concerned. Large room, beds were comfortable. Manager & staff were really friendly, attentive & helpful. It was good to have free internet terminals as we didn't take laptops etc. Some negative issues : the rooms really need at least a new coat of paint on the ceilings, the rubbish bins with... More

We stayed one night at The Rock and it was OK - far better than the Windsor in town where I stayed back in 2005 - avoid that place like the plague! The Rock has a slightly 'Fawlty Towers' feel to it and is a little frayed round the edges, but the rooms and the breakfast were fine. Any issues... More

Stayed with the family for three days during our latest visit to Sri Lanka. Nuwara Eliya is a must visit location if you are in SL and I would rate the Rock to be the best in terms of location, quality, and service at an fair and affordable price. I have visited Nuwara Eliya couple of times before and stayed... More

This slightly out of the way little hotel is like going back to an Agatha Christie thriller, or perhaps to an Old Peoples Home on the south coast of England. Very old fashioned in décor and fittings, but everything worked and the rooms are adequate, if a little drab. The set menu dinner looked depressingly European so we ate in... More

We stayed here for one night during our visit to Sri Lanka. We stayed in a few hotels (middle ranged) in the country. This one was a good choice. If you are looking for a simple, clean room at a reasonable price. Everything worked properly and the beds were comfortable. Although Rock is not a luxury hotel, it is a... More

The staff at the Rock are very freindly and courteous. I was speaking with the general manager and he randomly invited me over to eat dinner with him. This kind of hospitality I have not received elsewhere. The view is beautiful from the hotel balcony and it is nice to see the sun rise from there. The rooms are a... More
