Heritance Tea Factory, hotel in Nuwara Eliya

Heritance Tea Factory Offers you the ultimate colonial- style stay experience enhanced by the tea plantation and the misty mountains.

Truly exceptional service. Every member of staff down to the "trainees" in the restaurant were incredibly warm and attentive. I stayed with my Mum and every member of staff seemed to go above and beyond to ensure we were constantly greeted with a smile and cared for. This was our favourite hotel to stay at in Sri Lanka.

    it's great place but for foreigner they charge fees for everything such as entry fee to enter the place to visit and there is no any free facility which is not good. as a traveler we are going to visit city and promote the city on our social networks therefore we should have some facility to get some exempt the charges to view more about city. every attraction they have entry fee.

    A good place for visiting the Horton Plains National Park- negociate locally for the 40 min drive in a Tuk Tuk ( 9000 lks is about right). It has a nice lake to walk around. The Rough Guide though old is still very useful. The centre is small and compact with good facilities .. The exception is the 'Tourist Office' close to the bus station.. It is close to useless - dont look for impartial advice as the owner has his own Tuk Tuk!. Victora Park is worth a stroll.

    Quaint little town in the hills.

    Quaint little town in the hills. So, cooler climate and perfect spot to take a break from the sweltering heat in Colombo. La Grande Villa is just a 10 minute walk from town and a 5 bedroom boutique hotel, which makes it the ideal place for a quiet, restful stop before Ella.

    Nuwara Eliya is a sleepy town nestled within acres of tea estates , which has maintained a lot of its colonial buildings that it almost looks like a different country altogether. Hence the name Little England. It is best suited for an Individual or family that is looking to just relax at one property with great views , dabble in luxury (there are a few options) , do a little bit of sightseeing (all nature related) and experience the architecture of the town itself. It’s non-touristy.. None of the places we visited were crowded or dirty. The town sleeps by 10pm.

    we spent 2 days in the off season (mid feb 2024) which was perfect, no overcrowding, mad traffic and great weather. We stayed 1 night in a studio apartment and 1 night at a small guest house both were perfectly maintained and very nice accommodations well worth the price. check the weather and go in the off season to enjoy and relax in NE as it should be done!

    The house was so nicely decorated! I felt in a fairytale! The rooms are really big and cosy and have all facilities. In nuwara eliya it can get cold sometimes but the shower has hot water and its very amazing. The hotel owner Heidi is such a lovely and friendly woman who really takes care of you! We had dinner at the hotel and it was honestly one of the best meals we had in Sri Lanka so far. The same could be said for the breakfast! We also went one day to horton plains very early and heidi made us a take away breakfast!

    I stayed in the dorm bed. As a solo backpacker, staying here was a wonderful escape from the usual busy hostel life. We were treated just as lovely as the hotel guests, enjoyed the views and the breakfast. Everyone was really friendly and really helped us out with our activities. It’s obviously not central in the town but I didn’t mind the 30 min walk down. I would recommend highly if you want something more quiet for once, which for me Nuwara Eliya was the perfect opportunity anyway! The value for money was amazing.

    The location of the hotel is slightly away from the main strip which means it has beautiful Mountain views and feels really relaxing. We wasn’t sure whether to stop in Nuwara Eliya but we loved the area and this hotel so deffinitly was worthwhile! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and made our stay even better. The beds were the comfiest we’ve experienced in Sri Lanka and we had a great nights sleep We recommend to try food and drink at Themparadu which is a 3 minute walk from the hotel.

    We arrived late at this hotel and were warmly greeted by staff who spoke little English. A few things got lost in translation but we got there in the end. The whole hotel was like stepping back in time, the rooms, the dining room, fine china service at breakfast. The Firs was definately good value for money when we saw the view over Nuwara Eliya and met wild ponies out the front. The Firs is old fashion with a sort of "Faulty Towers" feel about it but I would stay here again.

    Found this place when in Nuwara Eliya during a recent curfew / lockdown. This place was great because it offered a kitchen and more space than a hotel room after feelings stranded for a few days. Host was super responsive and was flexible with booking another night just the day before. Comfy place to stay for a few days if you are tired of hotels! Bonus - it has an elevator and also not up a very steep hill if you have difficulty walking.

    Reliable choice as a chilled place to base yourself when visiting Nuwara Eliya. The host is thoughtful and gave great tips on things to do on Nuwara Eliya. Such a beautiful cottage with all the necessities for a lovely getaway. Kitchenette with everything you need to cook at home. Outdoor sitting area to relax. Honestly feels like it was designed to live in, it has all the touches of home. Better than many hotels I’ve experienced.

Hosts were very helpful with advice, also very laid back, felt very comfortable there.
