Araliya Green City - Your Gateway to Everything in Nuwara Eliya

10/10 Excellent
"A lovely five-star hotel in a convenient location, with a food court, mini-mart, and small shopping area right next door. It is also just a short distance from town. The hotel is surrounded by beautiful gardens, with a stupa situated across the road, adding to the peaceful surroundings. The rooms are spacious, modern, and beautifully designed, with very comfortable beds. The staff are outstanding — attentive, courteous, and friendly, with an excellent eye for detail. Their warm hospitality truly enhances the overall experience. Both the dinner buffet and breakfast were excellent, offering a wonderful dining experience. Overall, a beautiful hotel with excellent facilities, delicious food, and exceptional service. Highly recommended for a comfortable and enjoyable stay!"

"Decent property or a short stay. The dining experience was good. Close to Nuwara Eliya town centre but not walkable. Considering the fact the area is a hill station with cold/colder weather conditions, the room(s) need a better heating setup that can make the visitors feel comfortable inside the room."

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was spacious, clean, well-organized, and featured a sleek, modern design. The absolute highlight was the views—simply amazing from everywhere we went, including the room, restaurant, bar, and pool. The buffet breakfast was delicious with plenty of variety. A special shoutout to the staff who provided truly outstanding service. The location is ideal: perched on the hill so it’s easy for cars to access, yet still well within short walking distance of the town center, shops, and restaurants. Highly recommended!"

"Lovely hotel with great staff and a beautiful location. The breakfast was excellent - possibly the best chicken curry I’ve had in Sri Lanka. The only downside is that is quite far from the centre of Ella - and getting a Tuk-Tuk through PickMe was almost impossible - meaning I had to pay at least twice as much to flag one down."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Diyathalawa?
The best area to stay in Diyathalawa is generally around the town centre and its immediate surroundings, particularly for those seeking convenience and access to local amenities.This central area offers easy access to the Diyathalawa Railway Station, making it convenient for arrivals and departures using the scenic train line. You'll find a selection of guesthouses and hotels here, often with pleasant views of the surrounding hills. It's a good base for exploring the town on foot, with local shops and eateries within reach.Couples looking for a peaceful retreat will appreciate hotels situated slightly outside the main town, perhaps along the roads leading towards Bandarawela. These locations often provide more expansive views of the tea plantations and valleys, offering a quieter setting while still being a short drive from Diyathalawa's amenities.
When is the best time to go to Diyathalawa?

The weather is generally pleasant and cool, a welcome change from the coastal heat. This period is particularly good for those who enjoy hiking and discovering the natural beauty of the region, as the trails are dry and the views are clear.For families, the school holidays in August are a popular time to visit, as the cooler climate offers a refreshing escape. You'll find the air crisp and comfortable for children to play outdoors without the intense heat sometimes found elsewhere in Sri Lanka.
