Kandapola, Sri Lanka
Heritance Tea Factory
A working tea factory converted into a heritage hotel in the hill country above Nuwara Eliya, Heritance Tea Factory sits at around 2,200 metres in Kandapola and won Sri Lanka's Leading Heritage Hotel at the 2025 World Travel Awards. The property occupies original factory machinery alongside guest rooms, placing the industrial architecture of colonial-era tea production at the centre of the guest experience rather than behind museum glass.
