Hill Cool Hotel & Restaurant

This was a family outing we had on the 06th of October, 2024. We went for lunch, there was an option of taking the Ala-carte, any choice our kind, or a buffet, We went for the buffet. The food was tasty and reasonably priced. The location is convenient, with ample parking, with spacious dining areas. One thing that we noticed was that the staff are noisy , no discipline, as customers we need peace of mind when we are out with our families. The waiters are crowded at the cashier, which is not a pleasant sight for the hotel. There was no water in toilets which was a disaster. When inquired they said that they were filling the tanks. They should be well prepared ahead, before they start their business for the day. They need to look up to these little things. Overall its a good place for an outing.

Convenient, basic & comfortable . Our Pekoe Trail Hike stopover for two nights so we could walk both stage 6 & 7 and leave our bags at hotel using train & bus links one way. Very close to trail head so meant a flying start. Then fun to return to great curry dinners & a few drinks. Our room had a lovely view out over the tea fields (The hotel fronts the main road but the back area with accom is quiet) Manager Jay was incredibly helpful. The buses go from out the front of the hotel so easy to get into Kotagala/the train station.

This is a marvellous and most safe place for family stay.friendly staff who've learnt to say yes always they never said no. Authentic food,lovely tea and wow the nature view from our room. Rate it to be the best. Highly recommend Hope to come again soon

We didn't plan to stop here for food but we ended up having lunch. The food was delicious, the portion sizes huge and the price appropriate. Highly recommend anything "65" although we picked the chicken. Ask to be seated on the terrace, there's a lovely view of tea fields.

It was almost midnight and raining, and I was looking for a place to have a decent meal while travelling to Colombo. I stopped the car upon seeing this restaurant, but I was not sure whether the food will be okay. We ordered Butter Naan, Paneer Manchuriyan, Sea food Fried Rice along with Paneer 65. The person who served me recommended that I should not order two Naans as one will be enough for me. It was the DEEPIKA PADUKONE of all Butter Naans. The look - perfect shape and size, the smell, the warmth, the taste; I felt like it was tailor-made just for me. It was the BEST Butter Naan I had ever eaten. Not to mention the outstanding customer care; the boys always with gleaming smiles while serving. There was this pleasant Tamil boy who served me, the name of whom I forgot to ask because I was too distracted by the deliciousness of the food, THANK YOU my dear, for the warm welcome and making me feel like home. The Coffee and the Hot Chocolate were overwhelming in quantity, display and the taste and the ambience of the restaurant was also very warm and welcoming. I hope to visit you guys soon, as I cannot take my mind off the taste of that Butter Naan. Please pass my complements to the chef and the owner too !

An Ideal place to spend a quiet couple of days or weekend, or to have your food if you are traveling the Hatton - Nuwara Eliya route. We stayed here for 3 nights. We just wanted to have a quiet stay for a couple of days without much activities. Choose this place since it was right on the Main road. So easy transportation too. Had a comfortable and relaxed stay here. We called at 3 am to confirm our booking and they answered the phone promptly even at that hour. Easy check in without much formalities. Room was with a view of the tea plantation. Had a spacious balcony with 2 comfortable chairs. Bathroom is clean, spacious and had hot water. Room had a TV with cable connections. Room service is good and prompt. We liked the food here - tasty, good portions (we are poor eater) and reasonably priced. Staff - Mr. Ishaan and his team are friendly and offer good service with a smile. Service is also prompt. Everyone in the staff will ensure that you are comfortable.

We stopped here for food on our way to Nuwara Eliya. The food was incredible and the service was excellent. I highly recommend the Butter Naan. It is probably the tastiest Naan I’ve ever had in my life. I hope one day to travel through here again.
