Holiday
Heritance Tea Factory, Nuwara Eliya
About Hotel
Journey to the top of the world across a limitless mountain vista adorned by a green carpet of tea plants. Enter a long lost era through a portal of clouds and feel the kiss of mountain mist on your skin. Breathe the pristine mountain air and let your soul be rejuvenated. Gaze upon the dreamscape of Nuwara Eliya. Reside at our inimitable four star theme hotel, The Tea Factory, and live inside a dream from a forgotten age.
Location
The Heritance Tea Factory lies alone and unique, on the steep slopes of the tea plantations in Kandapola, in the sparsely-populated hills to the east of Nuwara Eliya. It was once exactly as it claims: a tea factory built in the 1930s by British planters. Nuwara Eliya can be approached via Kandy or Hatton. The drive from Kandy is about three hours. Although the final couple of miles along a badly-maintained road can be a little wearing, when the journey ends, there is no more luxurious way to explore Sri Lanka's history of tea making.
Accommodation
The accommodation at the Tea Factory embodies the unique experience of residing at a genuine tea factory. This one of a kind theme hotel truly recreates the ambience of a long gone Colonial era. Combine this with the fantasy environment of Nuwara Eliya and you get a holiday that you will remember for ever.
The hotel has 57 luxurious colonial style rooms with breathtaking views of the surrounding tea plantations. All the rooms come with rain showers and bathtubs with hot water. The view from the bathrooms make you feel as if you are a part of the picturesque natural landscape outside your windows. Each bathroom is tastefully supplied with a full range of custom made Tea Factory toiletries. The rooms are fully provided with heating, TVs with satellite and local channels, a comprehensive mini bar, and coffee and tea making equipment. Each room is supplied with coffee, tea and a gift basket of fruit, biscuits, chocolates, mint and cashew nuts on a daily basis. Our rooms are wheel chair accessible.
