The Alpine Hotel dates from 1914 and was built as a home of a British tea planter.[1] Later it was bought by the Dodampa Gamage family, who rented out the rooms to visitors. Now a hotel, it retains the old colonial charms and its architecture is one of the few lasting proofs of the bygone British Era.

The hotel has 30 rooms, a restaurant, billiards room, a bar and two lounges and a coffee shop.[2]

In 2006 the Alpine Hotel won the 'Star Award' for the best performing anthropometry in the Central Province under the large scale service sector.[2]

Location

The hotel is situated a kilometre away from Nuwara Eliya, facing the town hall and the Nuwara Eliya Racecourse, on the Main Road towards Badulla.
