Araliya Green Hills is a colonial-style hotel in the centre of Nuwara Eliya, near Lake Gregory, and the first hotel in town with a temperature-controlled swimming pool. Run by Araliya Resorts & Spas, it has a Balinese spa, two restaurants and three bars, and rooms and suites looking out over the town and the surrounding hills.
All rooms have heaters, free Wi-Fi, a minibar fridge, tea and coffee making facilities, a television, a safe, and bathrobes, slippers and a hair dryer in the bathroom. The four names below are the ones you will see when you choose a room.
The Glen Fall Restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, and the Marigold à la carte restaurant is open from midday until late evening. For drinks there is the High Forest Bar, Horton's Wine Bar and a bar by the pool.
The temperature-controlled pool makes a swim possible even on a cold hill-country evening, and the Balinese spa is the place to warm up after a day out on the plains or in the tea. The hotel is in the middle of town, so the shops, the parks and the lake are all close by.
Lake Gregory is about three minutes away by road, and Victoria Park, the Nuwara Eliya Golf Club and the old post office are all in the town centre around the hotel. Hakgala Botanical Gardens is about ten minutes' drive, and the Bomburu Ella waterfall about half an hour. Allow about an hour each way for Horton Plains National Park and the walk to World's End, and just under an hour for Devon Falls on the road towards Hatton.
Nuwara Eliya is high in the central hills, a long drive up from Bandaranaike International Airport through the tea country. The simplest way to arrive is a private transfer from Colombo airport to Araliya Green Hills, which takes you all the way to the door. By train, the nearest station on the hill-country line is Nanu Oya, about 3 kilometres away in a straight line.
It suits couples and families who want a comfortable, central hotel with a heated pool, within walking distance of the town and the lake. Couples wanting more room should book a Super Deluxe or one of the suites; families of three fit into a Deluxe room.
