We stayed for only one night at the Strathdon Bungalow as time was short. It was a lot of driving but the views and hospitality were worth it. This is a beautiful old colonial building with a lovely garden where we could sit and drink tea over looking the valley. Our room was a pretty twin just off the main... More

We stayed at the Mandira Sthrathdon Bungalow for two nights in February. The food was mediocre (3 stars), our first room was poor (2 stars), and our second room (which we were kindly moved to after we complained) was beautiful (5 stars) – averaging those out, I’d give it 3 stars. Our first room was a narrow and unappealing twin... More

This was the one of the best holidays I've had in Sri Lanka. Since I work overseas when ever I get back home I do plan out a trip and to be honest this was fantastic. The location is easy to reach with excellent facilitates offered at the location and the great service offered by the crew. The bungalow it... More

The garden and porch area just outside the bungalow is beautiful and well taken care of. The bungalow has a few bedrooms with a big sitting room, a modern TV... More

Tea was amazing (not surprising being on a tea... More

This is a scam. We booked for a night. After a long drive we called only to find out the number was based in Colombo and nobody answered. If you look closely, there is no real street address, just a bunch of different towns. Beware, this place does not exist. Call before booking if you don't believe me!

We booked this hotel through an agent online. The hotel does not seem to exist as our local driver could not find it, no one picks up the telephone number and the booking agent also cannot contact the hotel. Payment was made in advance.

The Mandira Strathdon Bungalow at Hatton is an old, original Tea Planter’s Bungalow overlooking the plantation. Staying here was like stepping back into British Colonial Times, even down to the Afternoon Tea. There are 4 bedrooms in this very spacious bungalow with an attractive garden and terrace overlooking the working fields in the valley. Mr Jayram and Sebastian made us... More

We received an ebrochure on Mandira Bunglows and were touched by the elegant and attractive sceneries of the bungalow. Then we checked the web and called Sunshine Holdings to get the rates. As there was a promo by the time we called we were lucky enough to get a very special rate and decided to reserve for a weekend at... More
