Slightly Chilled Hotel

A very relaxing and well managed hotel with awesome morning views of Adams Peak. The food served here is super tasty. Their friendly staff will assist you in any possible way and will provide you tips for guided teafield trekkings varying from easy to difficult. You could easily stay a couple of days here and expore the magnificent nature around Delhousie and Maskeliya. Clean rooms with hot water showers and a balcony. The cool climate and clean air up here is almost a healing experience. Recommended!

A hotel perfectly located and suited for a hike up Sri Pada (Adams Peak)
The staff is super helpful and can help organise provisions for the trip. The chicken sandwich was delicious and a just what we needed when we got to the top.
The rooms have a beautiful view of the mountain

This a super great place, tasty food and the rooms are high quality only thing i didn't have the heater but the weather was manageable the time i visited

A great hotel right at the foot of the path to Adams peak. Host was very friendly and helpful and the dinner was absolutely delicious! Breakfast included and even had a hot shower for when we came back very sweaty in the morning!

Fantastic hotel with the nicest view on Sri Pada. The bedrooms are perfectly clean and the food home made and delicious. The family who runs the place is very helpful and nice.

Very beautiful place. Management is very welcome the guests. Only 500 metres away from Adams Peak. Located in a very beautiful View Point. Rooms are very good and spacious. Even Chauffeur Rooms also very cleaned. Food is very tasty and fresh. I Wish Staff and the Management of Slightly Chilled All the Very Best.

Basic accommodation but very clean. Staff were friendly, food was tasty and good value. Great location for climbing Adam's Peak. No complaints.

We had an absolutely incredible stay. Gayan and his team are super accomodating.

The room was huge and very comfy with an amazing view of Adams Peak. The dinner and breakfast were DELICIOUS.

HIGHLY recommend!

Amazing hotel super close to the start of Adam’s peak hike. The dinners and breakfast were really delicious and the rooms are spacious, clean, with a super comfortable king size bed and great view! The water in the shower was always warm and they even have wifi everywhere in the hotel!

We had a lovely stay at this place. The whole family is very nice and helpful. Especially the younger guy who served us and took care of our bags etc.was really nice & ambitious and very happy to help.

We arrived around 6pm and it was no problem to get a nice dinner, that was freshly prepared.

Also the rooms are lovely, we stayed in a very big double room with huge windows, a balcony, a super nice bathroom with hot showers and a great view to Adams Peak.

We left the hotel at 2: 30 for our climb to the top, which took us three hours (we are not very well trained or sporty). You can reach the starting point in 10 minutes walking distance from the hotel.

Check out is at 12, so that was also something we appreciated a lot because then we had time so catch 2 more hours of sleep when we got back and then we enjoyed the nice breakfast.

Also they arranged a very good taxi ride (4000, including 500 tip) to the train station in Hatton with a great driver that explained a lot on the ride and arranged the train tickets for us. Thank you very much!)

Really friendly owner who gave us some helpful info about climbing Adam’s Peak / the room was brilliant - newly refurbished. The food was amazing - home made vegetable soup - and chicken noodles with chilli- I did Adam’s peak and it’s a super easy walk to the start from here - I would say if you are doing Adam’s peak definitely stay here. The breakfast is also something to look forward to! Fantastic.

We came here for a couple of nights ahead of our climb of Sri Pada, also known as Adam’s Peak. The hotel is located approximately 3.5 hours from the summit, depending on how fast you go by foot.

The service in this hotel is truly exceptional, and the reason for their 4 stars despite some topics that would normally make me rate a hotel lower.

The staff is friendly, professional, and super helpful. Reception was on point, always there to support us with anything from food topics to transportation and checkout info. Available in really good English.

You can book over their website. Only cash payment accepted (Dec 2021).

The dinning area also has a small store where you can buy fairly priced flashlights if you’re climbing at night. Also water and drinks.

Food service was good. Very big, generous portions for every meal. Not much variety on the menu, but the food was tasty and not spicy at all. Give them a heads up when you will eat and they will prepare ahead. Depends on the number of guests as well since right now Sri Lanka is experiencing a lower tourist wave due to COVID stuff.

Rooms are decently sized and have a private bathroom.

Beds are comfortable.

No AC. There’s a fan and it is either on, or it is off. It was too loud on the highest setting for my companion so we had to switch it off.

No wifi. Make sure you have a local Sri Lanka phone plan unless you want to be disconnected, which is part of the charm of coming here and diving deep into the mountain life away from the cities.

TV available but no signal. Some have HDMI for connections.

Phone in room. Reception is very helpful.

Balcony in each room with 2 chairs.

Curtains to block out sun.

No mosquito nets. Only a small electronic device connected to the wall, but it was not very effective.

Bathroom was clean, but quite basic. The toilet was not fully connected to the wall, so it moved and made noise whenever anyone gets on or off.

No shower curtain, so the toilet gets drenched when you shower.

Soap available. Bring shampoo + if you need it. Towels provided.

Doors Locks with a key and a latch inside.

No safety deposit lockbox, or closets. Some unlocked drawers and a mirror.

Stairs only, no elevator.

Security cameras installed throughout the building. Feels very safe.

Plenty of parking around.
