Blackpool Hotel is situated in the heart of Nuwara Eliya with a picturesque view of the tea plantations and Pidurutalagala mountain, also known as Mt. Pedro, which stands 2,524 metres tall, making it Sri Lanka’s highest mountain. Victoria Park and Gregory Park with the tranquil lake of the same name are approx. 4.5 km away.
Built in English colonial style, the hotel is in harmony with the surrounding tea plantations. The style continues in the 50 attractively appointed rooms, where you can really feel a sense of history.
All rooms offer modern amenities such as Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a safe, a mini fridge, a TV and a telephone. There is also a small seating area. Complimentary toiletries and a hair dryer are provided in the bathrooms. From the room’s small balcony, you can enjoy a lovely view of the hilly highland landscape.
After the hike in Horton Plains, it’s tempting to jump into the heated pool, or how about a game of billiards in the lounge?
The hotel has its own restaurant, which is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Tasty Sri Lankan and international dishes are served here. In the Single Tree Bar, you can enjoy a glass of wine, light snacks and freshly-baked cakes, which are the perfect accompaniment to a steaming cup of Ceylon tea or coffee from Taylor’s Tea Lounge.
Deluxe room | Per person from: £24 |
