かなり山の中にあるので、行く道が少し不安になりましたがホテルに到着すると内装が素敵でテンションが上がります。スタッフの方も皆さん親切で、色々説明してくださりとても感じが良いです。夕食は電車のカートの中で食べれるコースメニューを予約していただきましたが、駅員の格好をしたスタッフが食堂車で食べているような演出をしてくれてとても楽しいのでおすすめです。周りな何もなくホテルを楽しむかたちですが、色々なアクティビティが用意されているので十分楽しめます。

Tea heaven in unique hotel

A unique experience to stay in a historic tea factory immaculately and sympathetically converted into a luxury hotel. Lovely spa treatments but highlight was tea picking and seeing the historic boutique tea factory onsite. Beautiful secluded position in tea plantations and countryside

お茶の旅の最終地点として滞在を選びました。古き良き時代のイギリスを感じさせるエレベーターと部屋の設えでした。ハーフボードの食事プランで朝夕ともにビュッフェスタイル。 施設内にある製茶所のツアーが良かった。 朝霧の茶畑から朝陽が登るのを部屋から見る事が出来、良かった。

The property is amazing, and I was especially fascinated by the old elevator. Both the dinner buffet and breakfast were excellent. Be sure to try the "curd" — a yogurt-like dish made from buffalo milk. There are plenty of activity options (for an additional fee), and I especially enjoyed tea plucking while wearing a saree. The staff were all helpful. The room wasn’t too spacious but was clean and nicely decorated.

Must go place when visiting Sri Lanka

Beautiful property with amazing concept of preserving history. We were really impressed with the building and story. We loved the tea picking experience. Would like to suggest to the hotel to create an non profit to help the community near by and have the guests visit and help on the non profit, this way you will be able to attract more people.

The hotel is good and the surroundings are great but the value for what you pay to stay at Heritance is not reflected in the amenities in the rooms so definitely overpriced!!

A great experience.

A lovely stay at the Heritance Tea Factory. It's a repurposed tea estate factory, with just 50 rooms. Great service, and good a la carte options. Tea here is super, but coffee drinkers will be disappointed.

Fabulous hotel and service was fantastic. Beautiful picturesque surroundings. The staff were courteous & went above & beyond to make us feel welcome and special. Special mention to Gawshal the Duty Manager and Nuwan the Restaurent Manager for their excellent service & care. This is a must visit hotel on your visit to Sri Lanka.

What a magical place. We had a room with a balcony which I would highly recommend as the views and crystal clear air are stunning. The standard of the room and the friendliness and professionalism of the staff was first class. The food was excellent. I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough.

The Heritance Tea Factory is a great place to experience. The staff are wonderful, the food is very good and all in all we’re very glad we stayed. The bathrooms are a bit passé and the décor is a bit drab... but... do go! The surrounding area is truly stunning and the cottage garden is enchanting. So much to do and see... a great quirky experience.

Beautiful location and charming old style factory design. Poor amenities - this is not a 5 star hotel. little water pressure, no toiletries, only one power outlet in the room, slow wifi, no pool, Resturant a la cart menu comes with a “40 min cook time” warnings, it’s really cold there, no heaters

This was a beautiful hotel that captured its history. We had excellent service at the spa, enjoyed dining at the restaurant and it was lovely to walk the grounds. However, I note that while most service was excellent, the supervisors at the front desk treated us very oddly when charging things to the room and then bought the eftpos machine up to our room at 10.30pm (knowing full well we had an early morning start the next day to hike Horton Plains) to get us to pay our hotel bill before check out the next day. It put a damper on our entire stay.

Heritance tea factory thank you

If you enjoy fantastic landscapes, history and excellent service, this is the perfect place for you. Our welcome to this remarkable building was warm and very professional. The reception, restaurant and bar have been restored from a factory ,impeccably with style, class and sympathy. We were showed to the room via an orginal factory evelator. I loved the bedroom it was comfortable and cosy. Can I add it is very colonial, some would say dated, but I would disagree, and the hotels pictures of the room were accurate. We ate a very good buffet dinner accompied with impeccable service. I would like to add I am an engineer and for me it was a unique experience in a breathtaking landscape. But you will noitce there are no pictures of the bathrooms on the website. There is no getting around it, the bathroom needed a refurb and if you like modern day sharp hotels it may spoil your stay. But we thought overall it was amazing and we would not have missed the experience. Thank you to everyone at this unique hotel.
