Hotel Glendower

Nuwara Eliya


This rambling colonial building has bundles of ye-olde-worlde English charm to it (or a South Asian version of it, anyway), thanks to its terrific bar, lounge, billiard rooms and garden (complete with croquet set). However, rooms need upgrading, with carpets patched up and somewhat bygone facilities. Still, it's not a bad choice for those who love nostalgia.

It's one of the best-value midrange heritage options in town.
