The hotel is in a beautiful location with a spectacular view from the restaurant and pool area. The breakfast is varied and delicious with a selection of continental and Sri Lanka dishes. We also had a lunch meal which was excellent, particularly the curry. The staff are very accommodating and the rooms are large and comfortable.

LOVED the view! So peaceful and quiet. Shann was the perfect host, friendly and hospitable. The food was delicious also, just be sure to order nice and early as it takes a while due to being cooked with love. We loved the fun and relaxed vibe, the music, the pool and the Sri Lankan game Carrom.

Amazing experience! The room is located just above the 9 Arch bridge with an amazing view. The host is very very kind, he drived us with his tuk tuk to the town and helped with everything we needed. We had breakfast every morning served at the veranda with plenty of choices. Overall the best experience ever!

The location was super close to the city. (4min by walk to the main street and restaurants. So super practical when it’s raining! The staff was super super nice. They even have a laundry service that is useful if you travel light. The breakfast was amazing and they can adapt when you need to take it. (coming from a french person that the greatest compliment:) ) Even the nice decorated room itself had everything you need : a good hairdryer, tea stuff, fridge, qtips, warm blankets and AC, even a small light when the city is running out of electricity.

The location was great, with a direct view on the waterfall from our balcony. The service was the best we got during our trip, Senu was a great help for accommodating transport from and to the hotel and a guide for the Ella rock trail. The breakfasts we got were delicious and local, and always served on time! The room was spacious and very clean.

Ella has an amazing vibe, it’s a very tourist-friendly place and a perfect base for daily hiking trips. It’s very different from other Sri Lankan cities and definitely worth a visit. But if you’re looking for some peace and quiet, choose accommodation slightly outside the center to avoid the noise

On the one hand Ella is really beautiful.

On the one hand Ella is really beautiful. Great views nice waterfalls, great hiking spots. On the other hand it is packed with tourists. You have to go out of the city quite far do find a more quiet area. Ella itself is quite small since there’s only one “big” road. For us it was way too crowded. It’s not the cute little local mountain village it used to be.

Stayed for 2 nights.

Stayed for 2 nights. Found it a bit crowded & it rained on both days. Chill Cafe is a great place to hangout & Somasiri is where you can get your essentials. 9 Arches bridge is...well, just a bridge but Ella has cute little train station and breathtaking views on the train ride down to Kandy.

It's a very nice, small town packed with restaurants and bars. The town centre may lack a bit of authenticity being on european side with trendy cafes and night clubs. Great for a short stay. Many activities around: Ella rock, Little Adam's peak, nine arch brige, waterfalls, tea plantations, Mahamevnara monastery, Many places ofering ayurvedic massage.

Ella is a great stop if you are heading from Nuwara Eliya to the south. It's mostly a tourist town, not that big. But the town is very organized and picturesque. The Ravana waterfalls is surely going to mesmerize you. And, if you are into hiking, this is a place you must include in your itinerary.

During our trip to Sri Lanka, we stayed in all sorts of places from hostels to luxury resorts. This homestay was by far our favorite! Chandy was very hospitable and felt a little like our mom away from home. The room was very clean and tidy. The breakfasts every day, delicious (shout out to her homemade pancakes). Also her husband did not mind to drive us into Ella town with his tuk tuk. The view from the porch is amazing! Please go here, you will not be sorry!
