This is an excellent property, minutes away from the town center but what sets it apart is the attention to detail and great service We stayed in the cabana, a two-storied cottage next to the main building. It’s a lovely place with a sitting area on the ground level and the bedroom upstairs. The photos of the interior on the website show a luxurious, well-fitted space and the place lives up to this in every way. We were here in end November and the Christmas Tree was up adding a festive touch Food is good and plentiful (Tip: Opt for the Sri Lankan curry and rice) and service is outstanding. A special mention here for Avishka who was exceptional

Boasting a 24-hour front desk, this property also provides guests with a children's playground. There is a sun terrace and guests can make use of free WiFi and free private parking. Our stay at SHERIN 1892 was like stepping into a colonial-style time capsule. The hotel's design made us feel like we were sleeping in a living museum, surrounded by history. Asila and his wife's warm welcome added a personal touch to the experience. The fresh and delicious food was a treat for the taste buds. Whenever we needed guidance for sightseeing, they went above and beyond to ensure we had a happy and memorable time. SHERIN 1892 is more than just a hotel; it's an immersive journey into the past with exceptional hospitality. We look forward to returning soon.

The spacious villa comes with a cable flat-screen TV. Guests can enjoy an ambient stay in their soundproof room with parquet floors and a fireplace. For added privacy, the accommodation features a private entrance. Beautiful peaceful location out of town, beside the highest village in Sri Lanka. Surrounded by tea plantations and other small cultivations, and inside the grounds is a perfectly tended garden and very professional welcome from the small team. Short walks available to a viewpoint amongst the tea. Room and bathroom both spacious and as in the photos. Dinner and breakfast both delicious. The banana bread in particular! No problem to order us a taxi to go to the station the next morning too. More expensive than the average accommodation, but certainly value for money compared to other similar high-end “boutique” accommodations in Sri Lanka (which can start at $900 per night - and I’m not sure the extra butler would be worth the difference!)
