When
in
Nuwara
Eliya,
you
have
to
stay
at
THE
FIRS.
This
place
has
my
heart.
It's
an
old
school
Colonial
British
Era
style
structure.
It
is
quite
a
heritage
structure
and
it
was
initially
a
house
for
D.S.
Senanayake
(THE
first
SriLankan
prime
minister)
and
his
family
which
has
been
converted
into
a
hotel
now.
The
property
is
excellent
and
very
well
maintained.
The
place
and
it's
surroundings
give
you
a
British
countryside
feel
and
it's
even
more
beautiful
when
it
rains.
The
rooms
are
large
and
beautiful
with
all
the
necessary
amenities.
It
only
has
around
6-7
rooms
and
is
a
small
property
but
it
is
absolutely
worth
it
to
live
here.
You
do
not
need
to
go
out
for
food
as
you
can
place
an
order
with
the
staff
and
they'll
make
it
fresh
for
you..
The
food
price
here
and
outside
in
any
restaurant
is
pretty
much
the
same.
The
food
is
very
good.
Also,
the
hotel
is
on
the
upper
Lake
road
which
is
a
little
away
from
the
main
town
near
the
Gregory
lake.
You
can
walk
around
the
lake
in
the
morning
and
evening.
Other
tourist
attractions
are
not
too
far
and
accessible
by
car
or
any
vehicle.
You
can
honestly
spend
an
entire
day
at
the
hotel
without
going
anywhere
and
you
won't
be
bored....a
very
quiet
and
scenic
place
with
a
very
warm,
welcoming
and
friendly
staff
with
clean
rooms.
Had
a
crazy
experience
when
on
one
of
the
days
we
had
the
entire
hotel
to
ourselves
as
other
guests
had
left
n
there
were
no
bookings
that
day.
It's
unbelievable.
Can't
get
enough
of
this
place.
