Facilities
The Tea Factory provides a comprehensive range of facilities to ensure your complete satisfaction.
TCK 6685 (Railway Carriage) Restaurant
In 1897, under the patronage of Nuwara Eliya Assistant Government Agent Lushington, the Hill Tramway Commission explored the possibility of operating a light railway or tramway. In 1903 the line from Nanu Oya to Udapussellawa was completed, with a terminus in Ragala. The narrow gauge line gave its passengers a rather jerky ride due to the extraordinarily sharp curves on the journey, but they were adequately compensated by a splendid view of tea plantations and pristine forests. The service was in operation for 36 years. Passenger traffic on this line was stopped in 1940 and all traffic terminated in 1950. Vestiges of the line still remain in a stout iron railway bridge near the race course, the railway station at Nuwara Eliya and the stops at Brookside and Ragala - which have now been converted into shops.
Business Center
Do you need to attend to some urgent business while on your holiday? This is not a problem. The Tea Factory has a fully equipped business centre with broadband Internet connectivity, computers, printers, fax and photo copying machines. Our friendly staff can help you with whatever function you need carried out. The Business Centre also performs a valuable supporting role if you are organizing a corporate event at the hotel.
Satellite TV
We provide a range of cable TV channels via Satellite. These include BBC, HBO, ESPN, Star Sports, National Geographic as well as Sri Lankan TV channels. Although the last thing you should do at a hotel like Kandalama is to spend your time in your room watching TV, we provide this feature as we want to ensure your complete satisfaction.
Six Senses Spa
Our Six Senses Spa belongs to a chain of 24 award-winning, world renowned spas. Its philosophy is based on balancing a pyramid of the five senses; sight, sound and touch are the base of the pyramid; taste and smell form the centre; the apex symbolises the unique sensory experience of the Six Senses Spa. We offer therapy packages to totally rejuvenate your mind, body and soul.
The spa uses indigenous herbs, drawn from ancient Asian traditions, as well as tropical fruits and exotic oils. These are used with steam, sauna, massage, scrubs, baths and wraps by highly skilled therapists.
Swedish, Asian and aromatherapy massages are available as well as our own Ayurvedic traditional massages. Also on offer are beauty care treatments like facials, manicures and pedicures.
