Visited Colling Wood for a meal after a day on the train. Really impressed with the service. We received a warm welcome and the food was delicious.  We all had the Colonial Mixed grill. Very tasty. Dining area well presented and clean. Reasonably priced compared to other establishments that charge silly prices for a cup of coffee. Definitely recommend restaurant for a pleasant,  relaxing evening.

Great food. Friendly service.

Great Location, very good service, friendly atmosphere and very comfortable clean rooms.

Right across from the race course and located at a very accessible road.

   We will definitely come back.

We will definitely come back

So I had a nice time there and friendly staff. After enjoying time there I wanted to put a review here and read all the bf reviews people had put. 

So I did my analysis  coz I didn’t experience such bad service from them and realized all those are fake  profiles which are created to write only bad comments for 
this hotel

My recommendation is you should try this place coz it’s worth the money you spend .

And please go through the reviewers’ profiles before you believe them. Coz it’s such a third calss thing to under rate a good hotel which has a good service.

Perfect place,Bad reviews are from fake profiles

We stopped here to eat lunch while we were visiting Nuwara Eliya. 
The pros: We had specific food requests for our orders (spicy/not spicy/vegetarian/pescatarian) and we were accommodated. We enjoyed our food and paid our bills. After we paid... we were sitting and chatting and a lady (Shirani) came out to talk to us. After some small talk, she offered us tea/coffee on the house. While we were waiting for the tea, they brought some dessert. Some sort of banana with syrup (it was delicious)
The cons: when we paid our bills, we were slighted a little (the bill was 834 slr and I paid 1000 but only received 150 in change back. After our guide had a quick conversation with the waiter, they explained that they didn’t have small change. They ended up just giving me 170 for the confusion), but it was sorted out acceptably. 

Overall. Nice, quiet place with friendly and accommodating staff. I would visit again... and think it’s a nice place to stop for lunch if you are in the area.

Friendly Staff

Bad:
Food ! Terrible , even too costly. 
Chef and staff are lazy , never spend your time or money on them.
There is a pizza hut nearby if you are starving to death. 

Good:
LKR 3190/- single room, pretty affordable for a local customer. 
Hotel rooms were managed nicely. Clean , washrooms are oky.
Hot water is not working, I didn't care it since I came here to experience the cold water. But if somebody expects it, make sure that hot water machine is working.

Tip: recommend for a budget stay, good view on the balcony, cheap price for a night. There is a nearby pizza hut for dining requirements. There are spas and brothels nearby, at night you can see prostitutes yelling at customers , so don't mess up with them. if you looking for a prostitute go for a classified escort service. instead. Pimps and thugs controlled areas, visit their cold and kool climate enjoy but be safe. You won't be in any trouble if you don't mess with those prostitutes, pimps, and rascals.

if you are from a warm country or area, wake up early morning and do some yoga-like warmup exercises before bathing in cold water. Coldwater bathing is great ! There is a nearby ground as well, you can do some jogging, no matter how hard you try you won't get sweat here.

Do breathing exercises at 4:00 AM is called the fun. But you need to warmup first , then go outside and do breathing exercises.

Some good services and some bad services

The hotel is in need of a refurbishment and modernisation throughout. We were nervous to try the food given the look, feel and smell of the place. That being said, the staff (particularly the porter) were very friendly and helpful. Stayed on a pit stop over night on a road trip, but were keen to leave early the next morning as the room had a strong damp smell. No hot water in the shower and no WiFi connection in the room.

Run down hotel, damp in rooms and no hot water

Hi to the owner I stayed in the hotel with my family . The room was so nice the hall was nice the entire floor is excellent. But When we was ready to check in the frond desk said the price of the room was fixed. But they didn’t mention about the service charge. Even when we we was filled up the form they didn’t mention about the service charge. When we ready to check out the frond desk said it’s service charge too. We was disappointed and worried doesn’t matter about the money. they should explained that everything before they check in. If what happen if we don’t carry the money. So we ready to go home far with disappointmentment. Thanks for the room.

Service charge.

This is the ABSOLUTE WORST! Their kitchen is swarming with flies and smells terrible. I wouldn't touch the food if I were you. They have a 70-80kg rottweiler in a 5m closed off concrete alleyway which they have barricaded, so it's forced to sleep in it's own shit. The dog didn't have any food or water, just anxiously walking back and forth. 100% animal cruelty. DO NOT GO THERE!

SCAM AND ANIMAL CRUELTY!

food sucks, tasteless, waited more than 40 minutes for food and later did not bring everything we ordered. He counted the food we didn’t order and he didn’t bring the food we did. and food prices are very high on the bill and not like on the menu. You better avoid this restaurant and hotel.

We bought rice & curry for triple the price in Colombo.it was just disgusting quality and quantity. The below picture shows the size. We spent around Rs 2000 but all the food were really bad. There was stones in the in the fried rice,just really bad disgusting place.
