Everything was perfect, we arrived it was raining the owner was expecting us with umbrellas and helped us down stairs , the room was big enough and comfy beds, the view from the room was amazingggg , the family owning the business is very welcoming and generous. Loved the place and everything. Considering it’s in the forest water pressure for shower was low that’s all.

Great laundry service. It was affordable and they do an excellent job take great care with your garments. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful. We always had more than we could eat. Our room was spacious and clean, came with tea, coffee and fridge. The owner fixed my broken sandals (saving me from buying a new pair). The young man working there was all keys pleasant a bed very helpful. It was a brilliant experience staying there.

The view was amazing. The host was lovely and obliging.Took us anywhere we needed on his tuk tuk for a very reasonable rate. Made breakfast every morning whatever time suited us. Walked from homestay to waterfall one day and to mini Adam's peak another day. The views on the walks were amazing.

    We loved the Mountain View’s.

    We loved the Mountain View’s. The Main Street is a little crowded and all of the walkways are uneven. Everything is on a hill and there is a lot of walking . Stairs do not have handrails. The sites to see in the city are not easily accessible without transportation. Tuk tuk rides are very bumpy. Most of the tourists in the city are young . As an older traveler over 70, I would not recommend this location to an older adult unless you are very healthy and have good stamina for walking, heat, and bumpy rides.

    Ella is in the mountains so there is a lot of walking and lots of stairs and climbing. We saw young back packers as the majority of visitors. It was hot and humid so drinking water was very important. The tea plantation tour was good and informative. The arches trip involved a harrowing drive up a narrow bumpy road. Waterfalls were always full of people. The town is great with lots of dining options and great shops!

    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.

    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.

    The view is stunning. It is a tree top height and overlooks Ella Rock. The staff are just delightful and couldn't have been more helpful. Location wise it's very easy to get to the centre of Ella without using a tuk tuk, especially if you turn left out of the hotel and walk a short distance along the railway track, which is perfectly normal. Our room was well equipped, if not particularly large but we really like the addition of a hammock on our balcony. The breakfast buffet was excellent, with made to order food available.

    the most amazing view , make sure to book the top floor room, the family who own the property are incredibly friendly and helpful (thank you). the stay had fairly basic facilities so don’t expect total luxury but if you’re looking for a very clean, comfortable stay with a friendly host and the most fantastic view - you must stay here! note it’s in a great location in Ella but the property is at the top of a fairly steep hill !

    The owner is very friendly and helpful in organizing TukTuks, Taxis and day trips. A nice way to get in touch with singalese people. You can walk to ella but it‘s not recommendable when it‘s dark because if the traffic. Tuktuk is easy to get, costs around 600 rupees. Rooms are very basic and simple, don‘t expect any luxury. Very good breakfast. Nice view
