Abans Tourist Hotel wins prize again Abans Tourist Hotel which has been over the years winning the Annual Flower Competition during the season at Nuwara Eliya, again came for high reckoning at the recently held 'April Bloom'. The annual event is organised by the Nuwara Eliya Municipal Council and draws holidaymakers from all over the country and foreign tourists, a spokesman for the Hotel said. He said the hotel is well-loved for its beautifully landscaped garden of a wide variety of flowers and the ambient location woos many a foreigner. At this year's competition the hotel received certificates of high recommendations in all, being placed second in the Commercial Land Category. Having won the overall championship in two consecutive years namely, 2002 and 2003 (last year's event was not held), the garden enclave is maintained at the best standard possible despite the fluctuating climatic changes, which has been the concern for many land owners in this hill town. Managed by the Chairperson of Abans Group of Companies, Mrs. Aban
Pestonjee, the garden is groomed to perfection by Pakkiyam Thomas
painstakingly throughout the year. The hotel having spanned over 20 years
caters exclusively to foreign tourists. |
