During our 3-day holiday in Nuwara Eliya, we found Sun Hill to be a budget-friendly option with excellent room quality given the price. The room was comfortable and equipped with hot water and a TV, but the dining experience fell short. Additionally, the lack of an elevator made accessing our room on the fourth floor a bit of a hassle.

My wife and I had a pleasant stay at Sun Hill during our 3-day holiday in Nuwara Eliya. The room we got was a great value, featuring hot water, a TV, and wall-to-wall carpeting; we couldn't complain about that! However, the dining options left much to be desired, and climbing four floors without a lift wasn't ideal. I would recommend staying here for the comfort and price, but definitely consider eating out.

We had a lovely time at Sun Hill during our three-day holiday in Nuwara Eliya. The rooms offered excellent comfort and value for the price, with wall-to-wall carpeting, hot water, and a TV. However, the dining experience left something to be desired, and the lack of a lift made carrying our luggage up four flights a bit challenging. Overall, it's a great place to stay if you're willing to eat out.

Sun Hill is a great value for anyone looking for a comfortable stay in Nuwara Eliya. The rooms are quite spacious and come with nice amenities like hot water and a TV, making it a good place to relax after a day out. However, the food wasn't up to par and the lack of a lift was a bit inconvenient since our room was on the fourth floor. Overall, you should definitely stay here, but I recommend eating out for meals.

I had a pleasant stay at Sun Hill during my short getaway to Nuwara Eliya. The rooms were excellent for the price, with hot water and TV, plus wall-to-wall carpeting, which made for a comfortable experience. However, the food didn't meet my expectations and the absence of a lift meant some tiring climbs to our room on higher floors. Overall, I'd recommend staying for the value but consider dining elsewhere.

My wife and I recently stayed at Sun Hill in Nuwara Eliya for three days, and while we found the rates to be fantastic for the quality of the room, the dining experience left much to be desired. The room was clean, comfortable, and included hot water and a TV, but be prepared for a trek up four flights of stairs since there is no lift. With a bit more effort on the dining side, it could really shine.

We had a lovely three-day holiday in Nuwara Eliya, and staying at Sun Hill was a great choice for the price we paid. The room was comfortable and came with hot water and a TV, which we appreciated. However, the food was below our expectations, and I have to mention that there are quite a few stairs to climb since our room was on the fourth floor without a lift. Overall, it's a solid option for lodging, but I'd recommend dining elsewhere.
