You are here: Home / Hotels / TEA BUSH HOTEL - NUWARAELIYA
Nuwaraeliya, with streams of crystal clear icy - cold waters, line with lush cold ferns and lilies,
Imposing blue mountains, the majestic hawk eagle silhoutted against the silhouted skies,
Endless gardens of the world's best teas,
The dazzling array of flower at the Victoria park and Hakgala botanical gardens and the town it self, seemingly transported from the very heart of the rural England.
Amidst all this breadth taking scenario, stands the majestic colonial bungalow by the name of
The tea Bush
The present hotel was very much a part of the famous British owned Haddon Hill Estate. It still retains the distinctive hall-mark of the famous Tudor type architecture, unique to the swellings of the wealthy land owners of the Victorian era rural England..
Ideally located on the Single Tree Hill, the bungalow housing the hotel was built in the early 1800’s by the British. “Shelborne” as it was then known, was the residence of Gilbert Bersham-Traill, the supeaarintendent of Haddon Hill Estate.
Tea Bush Hotel offers the best of Nuwara-eliya… simple yet elegant, quiet ‘n peaceful. The hotel offers a touch of class and a hint of the bygone days, and an exquisite cuisine amidst the cool mountains. The stairway to the hotel is an artistic masterpiece by itself.
10 Luxury rooms, Standard, Deluxe and Super Deluxe, with all modern comforts that you would wish for, and with 24 hours room service. 33 channel TV, telephone and internet facilities, and of course the great view of the surrounding hills from the rooms.
Sun Rise Restaurant, offering a sumptuous array of mouth-watering dishes to choose from. Watch the most magnificent view of the early morning sunrise over the mountains from the restaurant, a view that would linger in your memories for ever…
IDD telephone, e-mail and Internet facilities are available.
