Hunas Falls Hotel is a boutique hotel in Elkaduwa, Sri Lanka. The hotel is located about 23 kilometres (14 mi) from Matale and about 24 kilometres (15 mi) from Kandy, in Matale District. Eponymous Hunnas Falls is located on the grounds of the hotel. Hunas Holdings PLC (formerly known as Hunas Falls Hotels PLC) is the owner and operator of the hotel. Hunas Falls Hotel opened in 1971 with prime minister Sirimavo Bandaranaike in attendance. The government took control of the hotel in 1976 from Colombo Commercial Company. Subsequently, the hotel was privatised in 1991 and a Hayleys-Jetwing joint venture acquired a controlling stake. Hunas Falls Hotels Ltd was listed on the Colombo Stock Exchange in 1993. Jetwing managed the Hunas Falls Hotel under its brand name. When Hayleys acquired Amaya Leisure, Amaya assumed the management of the hotel.

In 2019, Hayleys received an offer from Serenity Lake Leisure, a Japanese investment company, to buy the hotel. Hayleys accepted the offer which was valued at LKR700 million at LKR187 per share. Hunas Falls Hotels PLC changed its name to Hunas Holdings in February 2022. In 2023, the company signed an agreement with Azotels to develop high-end villas and management of the hotel. The hotel has 28 rooms and three suites. The amenities of the hotel include a six-hole golf course.
