Grand Hotel Nuwara Eliya

Nuwara Eliya - Highlands overview
Imperial style hotel, near Nuwara Eliya Town. In the tea highlands, 5 minutes walk from a golf club
The Grand Hotel, Nuwara Eliya is an Edwardian classic hotel, just outside Nuwara Eliya Town. It is set in a pleasant park 2,000 metres up in the tea highlands. Rooms in an imperial style are unfussy with wooden furnishings. Nuwara Eliya Golf Club is within 5 minutes walk.


We recently stayed at the beautiful Hunas Falls resort for our honeymoon. We stopped here on a leg of the tour between Colombo and Kandy, for which it's ideally placed. It's in the most beautiful surroundings on the edge of the tea-picking country. Some of the room rates include a free walk with the hotel's own nature guide, which is a really unique feature of this hotel. We had a two hour walk with the guide which was fascinating (he will do whatever you want to do -- whether it's just a walk round the lake or a trek up the nearby mountain). Within minutes we'd seen golden orioles, barbels, mongooses, Shaheen falcon.The food was excellent and the service very friendly. The hotel appears to be a very popular honeymoon destination for Sri Lankans too. My only slight disappointment was with the rooms which were functional, though not especially luxurious.
