Highly Recommend

This place was great, surrounded by greenery on top of the hill (Galkotuwa) and the owner and his wife are very friendly and kind who ensured the place was beautifully arranged and fully stocked with all the essentials for our stay. I would highly recommend this place for anyone who look for a safe comfortable place. There's also a friendly watch dog named "Saraa" make sure to pet him as well ♥️

We had the pleasure of staying at Galkotowa Estate recently, and I must say, the hospitality provided by the hotel owner was truly exceptional. From the moment my wife and I arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and genuine care. The owner went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The level of attention and service we received was truly remarkable. The accommodations were cozy, clean, and well-maintained, reflecting the owner's commitment to providing a pleasant stay. I wholeheartedly recommend Galkotowa Estate to anyone planning a visit to Gelioya, Peradeniya, or Kandy. The combination of excellent hospitality, comfortable accommodations, and a genuine, humble host makes it a truly special place to stay. The owner went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. I am grateful for the experience and can't wait to return in the future.

The owner of the galkotuwa estate, Mr.Anurudhdha, is very friendly. I felt like at home. The cleanliness and comfort of the galkotuwa estate are more valuable than what i paid. The galkotuwa estate is very nice and artful. Everything was just beyond my expectations, Thank you for your service, Mr. Anurudhda (Owner of the property) I hope to come again. I recommend this place to every solo traveller, couple, or family who need to spend a memorable moment together. Mr Anurudhdha went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend galkotuwa estate for anyone visiting gelioya

Very friendly host. I did an unplanned last minute booking in this property and arrived in the evening. I got a whole apartment with external bathroom and balcony in a very quiet area. I only stayed 1 night, so I did not cook (the kitchen is very simple). The bus connection is very good, although you have to walk up the hill (aprox. 100m). The apartment is simple but with a lot of space and very quiet. Definitely a good alternative to Kandy city, which is very busy and polluted.

excellent propery with fantastic mountain view.

Property Owner was very friendly and kind. Property was clean and well maintained. Nice and calm environment with the Hanthana mountain view. view of moon rising from mountain range is kind of experience you should never miss. Finally i would like thank the owner for his extra care for dropping in peradeniya railway station, which was great help for us.
