Why do we love Grand Hotel ?

We love that the Grand Hotel goes the extra mile to maintain standards. There’s the in-house horticulturist: plant seeds are brought in from England. There’s the 100 year old Billiards table. The rich, warm, deep browns of the wood panelling give off a regal ambiance of age and decorum.

The Grand Hotel is an absolutely iconic landmark of colonial architecture, featuring incredible gardens with pathways meandering gracefully among fabulous trees and shrubs, and water features. It’s also accessible to all important attractions you want to visit when in Nuwara Eliya.

What can I look forward to?

Built in the style of an Elizabethan-era manor house, grand by name and grand by nature, this opulent colonial era hotel is the choice of visiting diplomats and VIPS. The staff motto is “Serving you, our Royalty”, and you can be sure of very royal service.
