What Guests Say

Restaurant/places to eat in Heritance Tea Factory

We had a wonderful stay at the Tea Factory. From the moment we were picked up at Nanu Oya Station, the service was warm, professional, and attentive. The hotel itself is a beautifully preserved colonial-era property, full of character and charm, with fascinating historical features throughout. Our room was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully maintained, with lovely touches that made our stay even more enjoyable. The views from the property were stunning—lush greenery and rolling hills as far as the eye could see. Dining was a real highlight. The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of fresh, delicious options, room service was consistently excellent, and the Railway Dining Experience was a unique and memorable treat. The surrounding gardens are beautifully maintained, perfect for a peaceful walk, and the entire property is full of scenic spots to relax and take in the atmosphere. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend the Tea Factory for anyone looking for a relaxing, scenic, and well-catered experience in the hills.

1. The tea made here in the tea factory is available for sale in the hotel and it’s a must buy! I am still relishing the taste of it. It’s utterly fabulous 2. This is an old tea factory and it’s converted to a hotel. It’s quite the experience to see the old machines being yet maintained as it is. 3. The tea factory tour is superb. 4. The general hotel decor and the food they serve is very good

Food and drinks in Heritance Tea Factory

One of the most interesting and wonderful hotels we’ve stayed in. Staying in a real tea factory with award winning architecture, reusing much of the structure, running the original machinery every night. Beautiful location, really great - we loved it.

Very nice and ideal for tea lovers. Looks like a castle on the hill. Hotel is made from factory and every day they start the old giant machine to show how it was. Very nice food. You have their own tea everywhere so ideal for tasting. Recomend tea picking and visit of small factory next to the hotel. You have great view on hills and two plantations. We had also great massage. If you want you can walk on the hills around which is nice for hikes.

We loved the novel design and historical features in the hotel. We did the tea tasting experience with Krishna which was amazing, we learnt so much from her about the tea making process and how to properly brew and taste tea. Would definitely recommend visiting to friends and family. We wish we had time to use the spa which was reasonably priced!

Spa and wellness centre/facilities, Bed in Heritance Tea Factory

There are so many good things about this place. Place is clean. Rooms are well arranged and spacious. The staff is amazing, especially the catering staff. We used breakfast and dinner buffet while staying there. Nobert was very helpful and accommodating. He connected with my toddler and made sure that he was comfortable throughout dinning. Shanmu (chef) took special care of us. He was very attentive and made sure that our needs were met. The hotel is located in the middle of a tea estate. We walked through the tea estate and visited the tea factory. Staff there gave us a tour about tea processing. I highly recommend this place to visit for the vacation with your family.

Lobby or reception in Heritance Tea Factory

I absolutely loved the Heritance Tea Factory. I would go as far as to say that it is one of the best places I have ever stayed, it was a real treat. This hotel is special in so many ways - the building being a converted tea factory; the unique check in - no stress, and so welcoming , including of course a cup of tea; the proposed activities, the quality of the food, the location……….. but most of all the welcoming staff. Everybody had a smile on their face. We did the tea plucking and Jayanthi and Krishnaveni made it a very memorable and unique experience. The cherry on the cake for me was the complimentary birthday cake and staff singing happy birthday to me as I left. It was part of an unforgettable birthday for me. I would whole heartedly recommend this hotel.

When we arrived we were met by a pleasant personnel, serving warm cloths and tea. The english knowledge of the staff was wonderful, and they were super helpful and they did all they could to make us feel welcomed during the whole stay. Moreover, the hotel is not only a hotel, it’s also a tea factory and a museum. It was a very unique experience, we would definitely recommend it for everyone coming to Nuwara Eliya wanting a real experience in the tea making progress. We will come back!
