Hotels in Nuwara Eliya District, Sri Lanka

Nuwara Eliya District sits in Sri Lanka's central highlands, famous for its rolling tea plantations and colonial-era bungalows. The climate stays cool year-round at around 60°F (16°C), so pack a jacket even in summer-it's perfect for hiking through the misty hills to Lover's Leap Waterfall or visiting a working tea factory like Pedro Tea Estate. During the dry months from January to April, you can pedal a swan boat on Gregory Lake, while the rainy season from October to December offers lush green landscapes and fewer tourists.
