The Firs reviews
27I tried contacting the property to clarify on availability and details. Despite the messages being seen there was no response. So doubtful about the service. Did not end up booking due to this negative experience.
Beautiful property and amazing hospitality. The rooms were extremely spacious and clean. Mr. Sudarshan and his staff was highly accommodating.
Nice calm and quiet place to spend your time with the loved ones. The food is tasty and has a variety on the menu. Rates are reasonable and the staff is very friendly.
From the checkin to checkout the hospitality was so good! The moment we checked in they gave a hot towel and a lemon and mint tea to refresh and I have to say being a chef the food was very good! They use all the correct rich ingredients for the dishes! And atmosphere is like your living in a 90’s English era! The place is very well maintained! The rooms were grand and had a spa bathtub in every room I think! And you get a homely feeling when you’re in the bungalow!
But before checking in they were not very polite on the phone! And you’re not allowed to bring any take out food to the place!
I was very satisfied with the room, service and location of this hotel. When I arrived they assisted me with my luggage. I was given a choice of several rooms. The food was tasty and there were large portions. They even assisted me with a flat tyre. I highly recommend this hotel if you are visiting Nuwara Eliya.
Had a wonderful time. Friendly staff.
Specially Enjoyed their Super delicious meals…
Highly recommend.
If there is less than one star, I would put the location nice. It just lacks cleanliness and attention. The breakfast is late, the smell of the place, and the carpets are right in the rooms. We booked two days.
The place is very beautiful and cozy. Staff was nice. Location is easy to find. The food tastes amazingly. I am impressed with interior of the bunglow. The only concern was the room heating was bit not sufficient. Still a great place for an affordable price.
The location was very good with the hotel situated on a small hill top. This is an old bungalow renovated and converted to a hotel. So if you are into antiques, this is the place for you. Easily accessible by a car.
Room was very spacious and clean. However the doors didn't seal properly and could hear sounds from outside. Room heater took some time to heat up the room, mostly because of the large room size. Hence it could not be enough on a very cold day. The bathroom was very spacious too, with a hot bath tub. The room did not include a mini fridge.
The service from every staff member was exceptional. Food was very delicious (we ordered a chicken soup, club sandwiches and a chicken bleu). A portion is more than enough for one person. Can recommend to anyone traveling on vacation. Good value for money.
Good place to staying.
Large bead room with heaters.
Hot water/ wifi
Amazing staff and brilliant foods menu.
Mr. Sudarshan is very kind, very helpful and hospitality is best. I recommend this place.
The Firs is a nice place. Food is good. Calm environment. Staff is also friendly. Near to the NuwaraEliya town.
Friendly service, Great location and very nice place to stay. Probably the best in Nuwaraeliya.
Friendly and welcoming staff and super calm and relaxing place to enjoy the authentic Nuwaraeliya.
Hotel staff is very convenient and helpful, room cleanliness is excellent. Food is very delicious.
Extremely beautiful place like a hidden gem. Cleanliness is super. Even though they have limited items in the menu, food is very delicious. Staff is extremely helpful.
We took the suit room which was spacious for us as a couple.
The Firs is an old bungalow with a lot of history behind it that has been renovated and converted in to a guest house. Nicely presented rooms. Will definitely stay at The Firs again if I return to Nuwara eliya in the future.
The atmosphere is ambient. The cottage is in shear excellence with good maintenance. This was our first Prime Minister Mr. D S Senanayake's bungalow. Very unique bungalow. The food also dedelicious. Staff are super friendly.
One of the best bungalows I've been to in nuwera eliya! Beautiful old bungalow with 5 very large rooms and plenty of space inside, and boasting large washrooms with bath tubs and separate shower cubicles, and of course most of the rooms have a small sitting area and a plush comfortable lounge chair or two seater. The staff are very friendly the meals are prepared well with a good selection of variety, and served at the main dining table offering a sit down 3 Couse meal style you would normally see at high end Colombo hotels. The place is covered with lovely antiques and gives a nice ambiance and very relaxed feel that beackons you to stay on forever. Rooms have inroom heating which is a definite plus and overall is very kids friendly with the outdoor garden area which is well maintained.plenty of sky lighting coming in every where gives it an over all open feeling.
If old world charm is your thing.go for this one.
Quaint place with just 5 rooms designed to give you the royalty experience.
Service staff extremely cooperative but not geared up on infrastructure and kitchen management.
A perfect place away from hustle and bustle of city. The view from the hotel is superb. Food is good and staff is helpful
