Oak Ray Tea Bush - Ramboda

We stayed at Oak Ray Tea Bush for 1 night with our family of 4 and had a great stay. The rooms are spacious and the food is delicious. The views from the hotel are also amazing.

While the hotel could benefit from some renovation, this did not negatively impact our stay. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the staff was friendly.

It's worth noting that our triple room was located on the side of the main building, which meant we didn't have a full view of the sunset from our room. However, this was easily remedied by going to the terrace, which offered stunning views of the sunset.

My stay at Oakray Tea Bush was absolutely delightful. The breathtaking views of the mountains and the nearby ramboda waterfall were a highlight of my trip. Waking up to such natural beauty was an unforgettable experience. The hotel itself was pristine, with comfortable rooms and excellent service. The staff were friendly and went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay.

We stopped there for tea on our way to the waterfall. The view is like heaven. Super relaxing place. They had shisha too (what a surprise 😅)

A dream place to have a cup of tea with a stunning surroundings. The picturesque view is unforgettable . Staff was friendly and tea they served was superb.

I didn't stay there. Just dropped on the way to have a cup of tea. Everything is very high class including the prices. Excellent views from the top of the gift shop.

Delish food with great view. Price is affordable and the taste is top notch. Will defo have a return!

Lovely lunch buffet! We went there on the way home from Nuwara Eliya. The food - especially the pasta- was delicious. The bread pudding was a highlight as well. Good service too, and very reasonable prices!

An excellent hotel in Nuwara Eliya Sri Lanka. Rooms are spacious. The location is an excellent mountain view. Service was very good. Food quality is excellent. Normally buffet for breakfast lunch and dinner. One will try to visit again

Staying at Oak Ray Tea Bush Hotel is a truly amazing experience. I would give the location a 10 out of 10. On one side, you can see Ramboda Falls, and on the other side, part of the Kothmale Tank. The staff were very friendly and really helpful. My other two friends and I traveled with our families, including children aged 8 months, 1 year, and 3 years. The hotel staff made all the arrangements for baby food, and we are really thankful for that. The food is tasty and worth the money you spend

Worth a visit. Tasting of 11 types of tea included in free visit. No pressure to buy anything. Beautiful view. It's not an original tea factory, it's a tourist attraction.

Want to say big thank you to personal this hotel. my wife became very ill and all the staff helped us, was interested in her well-being, even fed for free, did not evict her from the hotel after 12 o'clock, because they knew that her sick wife was lying there. I want to express my gratitude to the whole hotel for helping my wife. you are very honest and respectable people.
P. S. Beautiful rooms and view point



An excellent hotel in Nuwara Eliya Sri Lanka. Rooms are spacious. The location is an excellent mountain view. Service is just superb, we been on our 29th Anniversary day and seen they know about it, the preparation was outstanding, separate space given to celebrate with bonfire, Manager Mr. Chaminda Bandara was very friendly and made our life easy with providing lovely veg food as we are pure vegetarian. Will never forget him as well service by all staff and it's wonderful location.

I did not stay at this hotel,
but I did visit the tea factory/tasting room. Beautiful views from the tea tasting/store area!

My guide was amazing! Her English was beautiful and she explained everything about tea making and the qualities of each tea. She was very patient with me with my questions and me taking photos and videos.

The tea was delicious! They only make black teas here, but they have white and green teas to try and for sale as well!

Remember to tip for the tour and tea tasting!

I highly recommend the tour, the view and the teas here! Plenty of parking as well!

What can I say but I absolutely love this place! The view, service, food and people! Special shout out to the owner- Chaminda Yapa who is an absolute gem. He went beyond an extra mile to give my baby the best birthday celebration! Honestly he secretly planned it with the front office and the food & beverage manager in matter of minutes with fireworks, delicious food spread, cake and presents from the hotel! I was almost in tears. Don’t think twice to book as the view is to die for!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Oak Ray Tea Bush showroom museum, which is situated near the Ramboda Tunnel. The experience at the tea factory and tasting room was truly remarkable.

The museum was a treasure trove of knowledge, providing an engaging and informative lesson on the intricate process of tea processing and packaging. It was fascinating to learn about the rich history and traditions associated with tea production. The experience deepened my appreciation for the artistry behind every cup of tea.

The tea itself was fantastic! While they only produce black teas, they offer white and green teas for sampling and purchase. I highly recommend this tea factory and tasting room for a delightful and informative experience.

For anyone seeking a delightful and informative experience, I highly recommend a visit to this tea factory and tasting room. It's an excellent opportunity to learn about tea, indulge in its flavors, and bask in the beauty of the surroundings.

Good food with Incredible views. Place can be crowded

Loved the tea tour, who knew tea could be so complex! Really came to appreciate it much more. Definitely worth the visit. The views from the tasting room are gorgeous as an added bonus!
