A true tea experience in a lushish setting with the greatest experiences all around you to be discovered.
Pros:

The location is in the tea plantation so you can walk out the door and be in the nature. The house is beautiful and the room spectacular with an outstanding view. Incredibly comfortable and wonderful staff and food. Special thanks to Murali for making a dream holiday possible and for his kindness. He’s magic!

Cons:

Nothing, it was perfect.

Pros:

Fantastic colonial style accommodation with a huge room overlooking the beautiful garden. I did the tea tour which was 100% recommended. So informative. The bungalow is located in the plantations and i walk up into them in the early morning and took some great photos. The food was excellent. This is a beautiful area, I wish I could have stayed longer.

Cons:

Nothing, everything was superb.

Wenn Ihr in Hatton übernachten und in den Teefeldern spazieren wollt, dann bucht auf jeden Fall das Tea Queens Bungalow
Pros:

Wenn Ihr in Hatton übernachten und in den Teefeldern spazieren wollt, dann bucht auf jeden Fall das Tea Queens Bungalow. Es liegt direkt in einer Teeplantage. Gleich hinter dem Haus könnt ihr den Arbeiterinnen beim pflücken der Teeblätter zusehen. Das Haus bietet auch eine sehr interessante und authentische Führung inklusive Verkostung und Besuch der Teefabrik zu einem günstigen Preis an. Der Betreiber Sri ist eine Seele von Mensch und kümmert sich um alle Anliegen, wie Ausflüge, Transportmöglichkeiten und vieles mehr. Die Zimmer sind sehr schön, die Betten gemütlich und die Umgebung ist extrem ruhig. Das Frühstück und das Abendessen sind köstlich. Das Internet funktioniert einwandfrei. Wir können diese Unterkunft wärmstens empfehlen.

Cons:

Alles war bestens

Helt fantastisk ophold lige midt i teplantagerne
Pros:

Lige fra vi ankom blev vi modtaget med lækker frisk juice. Personalet var utrolig hjælpsomme og selv efter en lang vandretur stod han klar med frisk juice og kulde klude til forfriskning.
Han hjalp med at arrangerer alle ture samt kørsel videre. Vi fik lækker mad og nød virkelig vores ophold.
Bungalowen ligger helt perfekt midt mellem te- plantagerne og nær den lille by Norwood, hvor vi ikke så andre turister. Der er masser at tage sig til, hvis man er til vandring, cykling eller kajak. Der er også en fantastisk te- tur, hvor man lærer meget om hele reproduktionen.
Værelset er stort og har alt hvad du behøver. Badeværelses er fint. Der er gelt ny bruser, men hele gulvet bliver vådt, så vi købte en svaber.
Der er lidt skimmel på badeværelset, som jo er svært at undgå i dette klima.
Vil varmt anbefale denne lille perle

Lovely stay, delicious food, highly recommend
Pros:

Wonderful location, lovely garden. Very helpful staff, Murali made our stay very comfortable and gave us some useful information from on the Pekoe trail stages which we were grateful for. Highly recommend getting dinner here as it was delicious (we had masala dosa) and perfect vegan food for both meals we had.

Zeer fijn verblijf!
Pros:

Onwijs lieve host en fijne locatie. We konden zo de theevelden in en op loopafstand de dorpjes bekijken waar er door de locals enthousiast naar ons gezwaaid waard. Pekoe trail nummer 7 is een aanrader om te wandelen hier! De host vertelt je er graag meer over. Verder was het diner ook elke keer een hoogtepunt. Zeker de Sri Lankaanse curry met rijst geven we een 10. De sfeer in het gebouw en de tuin eromheen is heel fijn en een extra pluspunt is de grote slaapkamer. We hebben erg genoten van ons verblijf en hebben zelfs een klein beetje heimwee.

Pros:

Housekeeper Sri war jederzeit über WhatsApp erreichbar und hat für uns die Abholung vom Bahnhof sowie den Weitertransport zum Flughafen hervorragend organisiert. Auch während unseres Aufenthalts hat er uns tagsüber mit Tee und Kaffee versorgt. Die Zimmer sind groß, sauber und gut eingerichtet. Das war die beste Unterkunft von unserer Rundreise durch Sri Lanka!

Unforgettable Stay – Highlight of Our 3 Weeks in Sri Lanka
Pros:

A stunning place right in the middle of a tea plantation, full of unique style and atmosphere. The staff, led by Murali, were exceptional – friendly, helpful, very attentive, and well organised, making sure we had everything we needed.
Hatton and Norwood is a beautiful, peaceful area – a true hidden gem, very different from the touristy Nuwara Eliya. Murali recommended a hike along the Pekoe Trail through the plantations, which offered breathtaking views. For anyone interested in tea, we highly recommend the comprehensive guided tour "The Tea Fields" with Rimas to learn about the history, cultivation, and production of tea.

Pros:

Ammattitaitoinen ja ystävällinen henkilökunta. Kauniisti sisustettu tilava huone. Rauhallisella paikalla.

Cons:

Siisteydessä parantamisen varaa. Pyyhkeissä oli tahroja, lattioiden siisteydessä parantamista ja ikkunat likaiset.

I had a beautiful and memorable stay at Tea Queens Bungalow for one night. The bungalow itself is wonderful, with rooms that are extremely comfortable, spacious, and impeccably clean. The surroundings are stunning—nestled amidst lush green tea plantations and serene nature, offering a peaceful and refreshing environment.
The food was excellent—freshly prepared, delicious, and full of local flavours.Every meal added to the overall comfort and enjoyment of the stay.

Cadre environnant, personnel et type d'hébergement magnifiques
Pros:

Le cadre magnifique immergé dans les plantations de thé. Le concept d'hébergement dans la nature environnante.
Les grandes chambres et les lits confortables. Le fait qu'il y ait peu de chambres est très appréciable.
Le personnel convivial, très impliqué, souriant et agréable.
La nourriture est très bonne (petit-déjeuner et dîner)

Great place. Will return
Pros:

Its a great place to spend a few days, soaking in the tea estate vibe of central Sri Lanka. Shri and the team were great hosts and went beyond the call of duty to make our stay memorable. The food was delicious and the rooms comfortable. Will return and recommend to friends and family.

En pärla mitt bland teplantage
Pros:

Fantastiskt hus mitt i teplantage vackra kullar
Sri och hans team har gjort det trevligt och bekvämt. Maten som lagades i köket var gott och gjordes på plats från grunden. Även aktiviteterna som erbjöds var fantastiska. Vi valde cykeltur med elektriska cyklar i bergen bredvid. Fantastiskt upplevelse och guide.
Åk hit - en pärla!!!

Cons:

Det var bara bra :)

Pros:

Etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber in einer sehr schönen Gegend, umgeben von Teeplantagen und kleinen Dörfern. Es lohnt sich sehr, einen Spaziergang durch die Umgebung zu machen! Am Besten ist aber das überaus freundliche, hilfsbereite und zuvorkommende Personal!
