The hotel was beautiful. We loved the infinity pool. The walkway to your room is so pretty with flowers hanging down. It’s a great spot to take pictures. The breakfast is great as well. We woke up earlier than when breakfast started and they rushed to get it ready for us. I would definitely stay again!

Amazing stay that was complemented by an amazing host! The pictures speak for themselves. You have a private and cozy room that overlooks the trees and the famous bridge. Despite being so close to this landmark, it feels private and away from all the noise of the center of Ella. The host genuinely went above and beyond and host I have ever met. He made us feel comfortable, helped us get around Ella, and provided us with an extragavant breakfast in the morning. Honestly, a very kind and generous human being. Would definitely come back to stay at this lovely location with this amazing host.

    The amazing and perfect nature around Ella is getting over exploited. Too many buildings (hotels in particular) are under construction in the delicate hills of Ella, they should protect the environment as the place will loose its magic if it becomes just some kind of shopping mall / tourist centre. The hotels are already enough, no need for more.

    Ella is truly one of the hidden gems of Sri Lanka.

    Ella is truly one of the hidden gems of Sri Lanka. Tucked away in the hill country, this charming little town offers a perfect blend of natural beauty, adventure, and relaxation. Surrounded by lush green tea plantations, misty mountains, and cascading waterfalls, it feels like stepping into a postcard. One of the best things about Ella is how laid-back and peaceful it is, yet there's so much to explore. Whether you're hiking up Little Adam’s Peak or the iconic Ella Rock, walking across the Nine Arches Bridge, or just enjoying a quiet tea with panoramic views, every moment feels special. The town itself is small but full of character, with cozy cafés, local restaurants, and friendly people. It’s also very traveler-friendly, making it easy to get around or find a good place to stay. And let’s not forget the cool mountain air—a refreshing change from the tropical heat in other parts of Sri Lanka. If you're planning a trip to Sri Lanka, Ella is an absolute must-visit. Whether you're a nature lover, a backpacker, or just someone looking to unwind in a scenic spot, Ella will leave you with memories you'll never forget.

    It's a beautiful place on top of the mountains, surrounded by mountains and clouds, just like in a heave. Food was delicious 😋 I can never forget the rice and curry bowl I had at Serenite. It's a perfect place for peace, that relaxes your senses. Ravana waterfall is a must to visit.

    Very friendly and vibrant town. The walk up Ella Rock is a must, but make sure you look at an online guide first. We got lost on the way up adding several difficult km's of walking. The trip out to Lipton's seat is worth it for the views along the way as well as from the seat itself. The train to NanuOya is also well worth the ticket price.

    Ella is a small town with breathtaking views and well organized place for tourists, If you are a nature lover and looking for a good quality time of enjoying hikes / mountains / zip lines / pictures with your family for a good prize , Ella is the place. Very safe for solo travelers too. Don't expect 5 stay luxury restaurants / high class bars etc. Lots of sign boards around guiding tourists to select the places they like to visit. Tuk tuk prizes are fixed for most places. don't forget to take a dip in fresh waters Ella offers in high mountain water falls.

    An excellent boutique accommodation at Ella. It is nestled in the middle of a tea estate. 20 minutes drive from Ella. So peaceful and quiet. Beautiful 180° view from room balcony including Ella Waterfall. Manager Lahiru and his team of staff look after every guests' needs. All rooms come with tea, coffee making facilities, and bathroom toiletteries are provided. The infinity pool is located on top of a hill. It's absolutely stunning. Anyone can spend the whole day. Highly recommended.

    This place was 100% romantic lying on a hillside. The view was great. It is not a luxury place but there is a fridge, water boiler, hairdryer etc. Breakfast is good and the owner is friendly. He also offers tuktuk service on request. I felt it is a bit a special place because it is so hidden. We were in another place in Ella before but that one was more expensive and not so special.
