Ella Forest Paradise Hotel, hotel in Ella

Nestled away from the hustle and bustle, Ella Forest Paradise Hotel offers free Wi-Fi and houses a restaurant – Crazy Horse, which serves local Sri Lankan cuisine.

Ella all in all has low standards of hotels. This one also need some renovation. But the manager try to do the best job and he is kind. I saw that people who works there do their best with garden etc. Swimming pool is small but perfect to chill. Really good location- walking distance to Nine Arches Bridge and Main Street with restaurants.

    Ella has the most spectacular location, really gorgeous. The train trip was wonderful. The waterfalls all around are lovely. The stores in town were fun. But we were surprised by how many tourists there were, how crowded and overdeveloped. The giant outdoor screens, the competing loud music, the catering to western travelers made it less fun than other areas of Sri Lanka.

    Nice little town, you can do some nice outdoor activity such as trekking to little Adam’s pick and zip line, see the waterfall, the famous nine arch bridge, enjoy some good meals in one of the restaurants on the main road. Rice&curry at the Chill cafè is very good, the dream cafe has an international cuisine so I had a chicken wrap also really good, instead at The Barn I had a really good overnight oat breakfast. You can also take a cooking class some restaurants offer this activity three times a day 11am, 4pm and 7pm or you can also enjoy a yoga class usually you don’t need to book classes are at 8 am or 4 pm. In my opinion one night and a full day is enough to visit the main things.

    This is such a nice town, good and plenty of food options. Lots of bars and the surrounding is very beautiful. You get spoiled here with waterfalls, hikes and so much greenery.

    Ella is a chilled laid back kind of place like Bali used to be, However the TukTuk Mafia are despicable rude, price gouging and trying to rip off every tourist. If you go to Ella take your own transport. You can rent your own TukTuks and Scooters. I encourage people to use Uber andPickme it works in Colombo. Honest TukTuk drivers are bullied in Ella As well as other tourist hubs in Sri Lanka.

    Good starting place for visiting the mountain area of the country. Downtown noisy and inundated with tourists. Those who want a quieter but equally stunning settling but somewhat more limited in amenities may do better staying in a smaller and nearby setting. If you are taking the amazing train ride, do so ‘backwards’ and start in Ella area.

    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.

    We loved this hotel and are sad to leave. We already extended our stay by one night. The pool is perfectly clean with lots of sunbeds. It is the perfect place to chill and a short stroll down a hill to the restaurants and bars in Ella. The staff were so nice and friendly. The room had a fan but we didn't actually need to use it. The bed is comfy and we slept really well. And there's a pool table! It is such good value for money, we can't understand how it is so cheap.

    Ella Golden View Hotel got the best Mountain View and sunrise/sunset experience in Ella. We booked Room for 4 with balcony and the view is out of this world. Price is very affordable and Mr. Rathnayaka and his wife is the best host you can expect in this area, they treat like your family member, they are very flexible and you can ask any service or food any time. Overall it’s a Five star hotel experience in Ella. We will definitely go back again.

    Little Folly is in a perfect location to Ella, the hosts were incredibly welcoming and helpful, the hotel has a really lovely little rooftop area to chill out in the evening and it's incredibly peaceful. The room was clean with a terrace area to sit out on. Unfortunately during our stay it was heavily raining so didn't get to enjoy this but I can imagine it would be relaxing in the dry weather. The cake was amazing too!

    Amazing place, highly recommended, stunning view and the room is very cozy. it is almost 20 minutes walk down the mountain to Ella city center, but it is worth it as it is almost on top of the mountain, and you wouldn't get such views otherwise. there are multiple hotels around in the area and it is easy to find tuktuk to the center and back. highly recommended.
