Stepping into The Mount View Single Tree feels like entering a colonial-era hill station retreat, with its dark-wood furnishings, roaring fireplace, and wide verandahs overlooking misty tea plantations. The single, iconic pine tree in the garden gives the property its name and a quiet, almost Victorian sense of place. This 3-star hotel suits couples and solo travellers seeking a nostalgic, no-frills base for exploring Nuwara Eliya’s cool climate and lush highlands. The vibe is unhurried and traditional, with staff in crisp uniforms and the scent of damp earth and brewing Ceylon tea drifting through the lobby.
💬 What guests say

★★★★★“Outside the chaos of town, the guesthouse/hostel offers breathtaking views on the valley and the lake, and it's on the trail to one of the most beautiful spots, and a beautiful Buddhist temple. Perfect location and very nice hosts!”

★★★★“Like everything in Nuwara Eliya we experienced this hotel a bit as faded glory. The room was very big and the bed was really good, but the hotel is very moisty and not maintained very well. The staff was kind and breakfast was good.”

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Nuwara Eliya, meaning 'city of light', was founded in the 1840s by British colonial administrator Sir Samuel Baker, who transformed this cool highland valley into a sanatorium and hill station for recuperating colonials. The town’s architectural evolution mirrors a slice of Surrey in the tropics, with red-brick Tudor-style bungalows, the Hill Club, and a neo-Gothic post office still standing. Tea plantations, introduced by the British after coffee blight in the 1870s, surround the town and remain the economic backbone. Today, Nuwara Eliya is Sri Lanka’s premier tea-growing hub and a domestic tourist favourite for its crisp air, horse racing at the local racecourse, and the annual Nuwara Eliya Flower Show in April. Its contemporary identity blends a nostalgic resort atmosphere with bustling local markets and a growing reputation for cool-climate agriculture, including strawberries and carrots.
️訪れるのに最適な時間
完全なガイド最高の月
March to May – these months offer the least rainfall and clearest skies, perfect for tea estate walks and views of the surrounding hills; also before the heavy monsoon sets in, while crowds are moderate.
ピーク / フェスティバル Surge
April is peak season, driven by the Nuwara Eliya Flower Show (held mid-April) and the Sri Lankan New Year (around 13-14 April). Hotel prices double or triple; advance booking is essential. The racecourse also holds special events in April, drawing large domestic tourist crowds.
予算肩の季節
June and July are excellent shoulder months – discounts of 20-30% off peak rates, generally fine weather though with occasional south-west monsoon showers, and far fewer visitors. September-October is another budget-friendly window with lower prices and pleasant conditions.
天気&パッケージ
Nuwara Eliya sits at 1,868 metres, so even in 'summer' temperatures rarely exceed 20°C and can drop to 10°C at night – pack a waterproof jacket for sudden drizzle and a warm fleece or sweater for evening chill. **Rule: Always carry an umbrella and a layer; the valley generates its own microclimate regardless of season.**
シティ・ブリーフィング Live City Briefing
- The newly widened Nuwara Eliya–Badulla road (A5) has reduced travel time to Gregory Lake by 15 minutes, though some sections near Ragala still have single-lane traffic due to ongoing widening work.
- A new 'Tea Trail' walking route linking Pedro Tea Estate and the town centre opened in early 2026, with signage and rest points – perfect for a gentle day hike.
- The Nuwara Eliya Municipal Council has banned plastic water bottles at all public events from June 2026; visitors should carry reusable bottles or plan to buy glass-bottled water from local shops.
