Lovely property, verily simple for the price but nice location if you want to go to Horton Plains. But close to nothing else around. So best for families in order to make the journey a bit cheaper.
The host can cook food for you which is super delicious!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Cape House, and it was a truly fantastic experience. The service was exceptional, and our stay was nothing short of perfect.
A special mention must go to the manager, Eranda. He is one of the kindest and most inventive managers I’ve ever encountered at a hotel. His attention to detail and genuine care for guests made our stay incredibly enjoyable. He was especially wonderful with my son, making him feel welcome and special throughout our visit.
I highly recommend the Cape House to anyone looking for a remarkable place to stay. The combination of outstanding service, comfortable accommodations, and Eranda’s exceptional management truly sets this place apart. Eranda deserves a massive raise for his dedication and the wonderful experience he provides to guests.
Thank you, Cape House, for an unforgettable stay. We will definitely be returning!

The service was amazing! Samantha is super kind and a very good cook :)
Almost everything. Location was close to Horton Plains and the owners arranged a tuk tuk ride for a nominal fee. Lovely surrounding. Food was tasty and ample given. Really worth it. Owners were friendly and made the guests feel at home.

Ohiya is a place definitely worth to go.
Ohiya is a place definitely worth to go. Horton Plains are absolutely gorgeous, but even the unusual forests around Ohiya, birds, other animals and all the plants (especially flowers and coniferous species) are worth to see. We loved the mysterious weather, hot mornings, misty afternoons or evenings, and beautiful nights with distant thunderstorms. This place is fabulous and we wish to come back again.
Best restaurant for us was staying at Muthu Nisindi in Forest Cyniciam Holiday Bungalow. And her husband Mahinda took care of us with his tuk-tuk, being always on time, always prepared to stop to show us an an animal or answer question or wish.
We definitely recommend animal watching around the village, walks in forest, eating all the food you can and going to Horton Plains at least for two days to hike through all the paths available, we managed to do just 2 hikes and will come back once to see the rest.
This stay is very rustic, in a good kind of way. The host where very simple people, always kind and smiling. They prepared us tea all the time because it is very cold in Ohiya and it was great. We came late because we had problems with transfer, but they still prepared us a full and tasty dinner. We arranged transfer to Horton's Plains through the hosts and they prepared us breakfast for our morning ride. There was hot water but no heating. This is a great place to stay, just don't forget to bring warm clothing.
The location within the tea plantations is perfect with a breathtaking view down to the plains. The staff is friendly and helpful and the food is great. Rooms are spacious and very clean with a wonderful view from the bed. The owners organise a Tuk-Tuk for a whole day for a reasonable price. We started our trip to Horton Plains very early (5:45) and were provided with breakfast boxes. The owner takes ecology protection seriously, no plastic bottles or plastic bags are being provided.
Prakash and other staff members were very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. They took care of us very well. What is even more impressive was the food made by Chef Prakash. We are originally from Sri Lanka, and we have had plenty of Sri Lankan food, including home cooked food. But the Rice and curries dinner we had here was unique and the best we ever had. We had a great mountain view from the room and balcony, and were able to enjoy the Sunrise directly from the room.
What a beautiful calm place! We enjoyed it very much. Even walks around in forest was so nice.
The family is so friendly. Food is amazing and they have also very good restaurant in the city (where the mama cooks).
It is quit cold in the night compare to other places in Sri Lanka, but extra blankets were completely ok.
We got unexpected ride from train station but it is easy to walk there as well. And there is certainly option of ride to Horton Plains.
A fabulous view in this so quiet and peaceful little village . The staff here are the stars and the Prakash’s cooking produced some of the best food we have had in Sri Lanka . We stayed three nights to walk a couple of days on the Pekoe Trail .
I can’t emphasise enough how the cream here go out of their way to help and assist . We hope to return one day as we skipped Horton Ppalin but the walk down the Devil’s staircase was spectacular .
The location and the room was ideal for the stay.. had the warmest welcome and the staff was equally friendly and attentive… had a hearty breakfast and the food was also tasty.. clean and spacious rooms and washrooms.. could witness the sunrise while staying in the room… it was a pleasure staying for two nights on b&b basis..
It was the best accommodation in Sri Lanka! Such a lovely family ❤️ We spent Christmas day there and it was absolutely awesome. They made a christmas tree for us and we got perfect meal every day. And the pancakes….omg! 🤩We felt at home there. Thank you for everything!
For me, the outstanding home stay experience of my time in Sri Lanka. Very nice and helpful family, helped with transport and meals. Peaceful hillside forest location, close to the Ohiya Station hamlet. Tea and biscuits on the terrace. Horton Plains visit.
The location is 300mtrs from the Ohiya railway station. The building is old but clean. The beds were exceptionally comfy. The guesthouse keeper Chanaka is very friendly and was very helpful. Also he's a fantastic cook. 100% value for money.
Dinner was excellent. One of the best we had in Sri Lanka. same for breakfast, the hoppers were delightful. The hosts were accomodating and made tea for us upon arrival on request.
One of the rooms we had had an exceptional view
Nice hotel. Basic room, but the owners were really friendly and good. They made me a big dinner, arranged a Tuk Tuk to get to World’s End and gave me a packed lunch. Ohiya is also a nice location. Recommended if you’re there.
the view was breathtaking, sunset and sunrise were very beautiful
the owner has very good English and is a pleasant person to talk with
location is very close to Horton Plains and Devil’s staircase
When I ask before putting the booking that can we reach the hotel by a car they said yes
But actually you can reach the hotel 2KM before the hotel
The walk path is also very bad
So i didn’t go
Lovely location with beautiful view and drive. Close to Horton plains. The family was very friendly and made you feel like home. Food was tasty and was the best.
