Heritance Tea Factory is a hotel surrounded by tea plantations in Kandapola, outside Nuwara Eliya in Sri Lanka’s highlands. About 14 km from the town centre and more than 2,000 m above sea level, it offers green Ceylon tea-country scenery away from the bustle of town.
Its defining feature is a former tea factory converted into a hotel. Machinery and steel structures from its industrial past remain in the atrium. The building’s tea-making heritage and surrounding plantations create a distinctive stay.

Tea plantations and highland hills can be seen through wooden-framed windows. Sip tea by the window or explore the former factory features: it suits guests who want to enjoy the hotel stay itself. Tea tasting, tea plucking and visits to the mini tea factory also appeal to tea lovers.
