Ella has the most spectacular location, really gorgeous.
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.
Loved arriving here with the train, meeting other travellers and eating plenty of delicious food :)
Will come back soon, next time for longer because there is so much more to see.

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.
Great location with a beautiful view. Breakfast in great portion and delicious. Room was spacious and good for the value.
Nimal is one of the best hosts in the business; he sent a list of things he could help with before we got to his hotel and indeed he booked a trip for us to Yala National Park and Diyaluma Falls. He even helped us with finding a ride from Ella to our next stop, what more could we ask for?
We enjoyed his conversation during our stay for 3 days in Ella and genuinely thank his supportive and helpful attitude during our stay.
Lovely stay at W1 Ella, hosts were fantastic and very accommodating. The views from the veranda were stunning too! Very comfy beds and good facilities. Also huge breakfasts!
You can walk to Ella Rock from here, along the train track and also into town. Lots of bars, restaurants etc close by, around a 15-20 minute walk. Make sure you have more than just flip flops with you.
Beware, the road leading up to the hotel is not suitable for any cars. You can rent mopeds or a tuk tuk will take you up there but definitely don’t drive a car!
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.
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!
One of great location in Beautiful Sri Lanka Ella. Room decarate very well and Clean. Super Delicious Breakfast with local Pancakes.My room was very Comfortable and Peaceful.Always Feeling I am in the Jungle .Balcony view quiet natural forest and little mountain view.I got lot of photographs from my room Balcony.hotel staff help at all things.they arranged my next trip.thanks again your hospitality.
A full 360 degree view from the top floor was incredible! our bedroom was spacious and cool which was needed after a steep walk up to the hotel from Ella. we want to say a big thank you to everyone who made our stay so special, all of the staff were extremely efficient and helpful, I couldn’t fault their services. also a big thank you to Cyril who collected and dropped us off after our stay.
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.
I loved how the rooms were a good size with a big balancing and a hammock. The breakfast and food were great. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. We really enjoyed our stay at Zion and would recommend to anyone. There is quite a big hill to get to the hotel from Ella town, but tuktuks are quite cheap and can help you get there if needed.
Spacious and clean room with lovely balcony area overlooking the trees and surrounding mountains. Trails to Ella Rock begins near the hotel. Breakfast was delicious and the hosts were very welcoming, With great hospitality. The staff was exceptional and extremely helpful and which is all for a really reasonable price. Highly recommended.
Shehan went out of his way to take care of us! We love to hike and the hotel is on rout to ella rock ! The location is one train stop Away from ella so time your day around this or walk the 30 mins into town along the tracks! Breakfast is also amazing and huge so kept us goi g till late afternoon
The hotel is on height.. Providing great views from balcony of Ella gap...good room size.. Good washroom.. with Hot water.. 2 min (steep) walk from ella main street..all main attractions are 5-10 min quick tuk tuk ride away...very professional staff.. Specially kavish.. On reception..
The place was very clean and the host was the most friendly guy in all of Sri Lanka. He offered us coffee and tea and he gave us a ride and he did not ask for anything. Do not expect a very luxury room, but a very nice garden and room with the most kind host!
While about a 25 minute walk (or short tuktuk ride) outside of town the location of the hotel is breathtaking. Sapu and his wife were fantastic hosts and were extremely helpful in every way. If we return to Ella we will almost certainly stay here again.
I loved this hotel so much! Great option for those who don’t want to stay in busy city of Ella. The breakfast terrace with bridge view was stunning! all greenery and mountains around! Great starting point for Little Adams Peak.
This property had a wonderful view over Ella Rock. The room was clean and tidy. The hotel manager was very friendly and helpful with any questions we had. The property was very close to the centre of Ella.
Dom was very accommodating and gave exceptional service. Stay was stunning, beautiful view from a relaxing hammock, luxury air conditioned room and allowed great recovery from the exciting Ella experience.
The view is indeed amazingly beautiful! That alone was worth the stay. However, on top of that the staff was kind and helpful, and the hotel offered tuk tuk services around Ella for fair prices. Loved it!
