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.

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.

The biggest asset of this hotel is the fact that it was once a tea factory. There is still a working mini tea factory on site which guests can tour. The hotel is quite removed from most of civilization which has its own pros and cons. It is also quite a trek to get to and from the hotel. With a very narrow road used for two-way traffic, reaching and leaving the property is an adventure on its own but may not be for the faint of heart. Some basic amenities could benefit from both an upgrade and an update, including the showers. The hotel informs guests of the volume of water used per minute when washing hands and showering. Curiously though, the shower knobs were made to be old (more on this below), that water comes out of both the tap and the shower simultaneously. This defeats the entire principle of and drive to conserve water. Any attempt to shut the tap resulted in the knob falling off. It is worth repeating that this was not always a hotel. That means when they renovated it in our more modern times, they made the conscious choice of making it authentically British but not in the best of ways. The rooms are right and rather claustrophobic. The use of green carpeting doesn’t inspire relaxation or bliss. Room interiors are, for the lack of a better word, stodgy. On a positive note, the hotel boasts of magnificent remnants of the old tea factory. This truly is the highlight of the stay.

Beautiful hotel. Quiet and tranquil location.
Wonderful hotel. Rich history and very well/tastefully kept. Staff are very warm and helpful. The grounds are beautiful; garden, mini tea factory and surrounding tea fields. Dinner and breakfast were delicious (rice and curry is a real feast). Really nice and comfortable room, great view too. While it makes for a scenic location, the only downside is access to hotel. Small, uneven road makes hard for car travel. We intended on going out into town in the evening for dinner but thick fog came in and as it got dark we didn’t think it would be very safe/practical to start driving off again. So we had dinner at the hotel which was also very nice.

Beautiful property in the middle of tea plantations and away from the city. The hotel is an old tea factory which has been converted into a hotel. an eco friendly hotel with amazing views of the hills. courteous and helpful staff, great food (buffet and ala carte) and lovely garden with a small play area for kids. the hotel provides experiences like nature trail, tea picking, tea making process etc. you can go for an outdoor walk in the near by villages and meet the local women while they are plucking the tea leaves. Nuwara Eliya as a town is georgeous and so mesmerizing. we travelled from Kandy to Nuwara eliya and had some amazing views of the tea estates, mountains and water falls.

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.

I booked this hotel but then called the hotel within 2 hours of booking it to cancel it due to it being much farther drive from the city than searched. The hotel manager refused to refund me even though I never went and called right after I booked. Hotels.com said to me it is the hotels decision if I can be refunded. Horrible experience.
