Misleading photos: Avoid

Reviewed By Akshay81

Most of the photos posted are taken in a way to make the property seem grand whereas in fact it is very small and suffocating. The owner is rude and will mislead to make a quick buck. Food is generally unhygienic. For the price they demand, you could get much much better properties around. Give this property a skip if you don't want your holiday ruined with flies and cockroaches.

Ripon Grand Hill

Modern property located in the heart of Nuwara Eliya. Walking proximity to the city and lake Gregory. Restaurant with signature local and international cuisine

Great value for money

Reviewed By Sandya-and-Erik

Tucked in a back lane near Race Course, hence not easy to find after dark, but a great find! We had 2 nice spacious single rooms, good bathrooms, and nice set breakfast (one Western one Lankan). And despite the April season the prices were still very reasonable. (Yes lots of noise from the festival near the race course, but we knew that and cannot blame the property for this one-week-a-year event). Recommended!

Lovely stay

Reviewed By Ksawww651

The owners were very friendly, and let us use their wifi as the signal wasn't very strong from our room. Blankets were provided as it can get chilly at night time. The bathroom was clean and there were some books to choose from if you wanted. Only a 15 minute walk into the main town which was very handy, with lots of restaurants and bars.

Tea Bush Hotel

Tea Bush Hotel is a boutique type hotel of 10 comfortable rooms, situated in Nuwara-eliya, the little England of Sri Lanka. The original planter’s granite bungalow, “Shelborne”, as it was then known built in the 1800’s, where most of the hotel rooms are housed adding to the old world charm of the hotel, was the residence of the superintendent of Haddon Hill Tea Estate.All rooms are provided with hot and cold water and room heaters are optional. Ample parking space coupled with drivers’ quarters is a boon for the tour operators. The large well appointed restaurant serves delicious food for both in-house guests as well as walk-in guests. Room service is also available on request. The limited number of rooms makes every guest a special one for the hotel. The high elevation of the hotel above the town makes the view from the rooms and the restaurant of the surrounding hills, Nuwara-eliya town and the Lake Gregory to be quite breathtaking. Mt. Pedro or Pidurutalagala, the highest peak in the Island is close at hand. One could get a grand view of Adams Peak or Sri Pada, the famed holy mountain by climbing the Single Tree Hill just behind the hotel.Guests on their own may visit the Victoria Park and the Lake Gregory which are just walking distance from the hotel, while hiking trips may be arranged by the hotel to the surrounding hills. Guided day tours may be arranged on request to the Hakgala Botanical Gardens with its famed rose beds or to the Horton Plains, the National Park among the clouds at an elevation of 7000 feet, and perhaps a peep down the Worlds End, the 3000 feet sheer precipice.All this would make your stay at the Tea Bush Hotel linger in your memories for long years to come.

Wonderful time in a wonderful place - great food, perfect service

Reviewed By Singapore00

We spent two nights as a couple at Oatlands and were most attentively looked after by Sanath who did everything to ensure we were comfortable. The rooms are cozy, clean and well kept with a beautiful charm. The food is extraordinary - not only displayed with most attention to the detail but also savoury and delicious! We spent one day at the phantastic Horton Plains which are about 45 minutes drive from the hotel. Baseline: highly recommended
