Scenic Hotels in Ella

"I chose this hotel because of the view, and the location was just as beautiful as I expected. It's only about a 10-minute walk from the station, but you have to walk up a steep hill and over the train tracks to get there, so if you have luggage, I recommend catching a Tuktuk. My plan included breakfast and dinner, and both were delicious. For dinner, the salad and soup were fixed, and I chose my own main course. I was very satisfied with everything. It's a shame that, despite the beautiful view, there are no windows inside the restaurant, so you can't see outside. It's pitch black at night, but you can still have dinner on the balcony outside your room. It's not a modern, pretty hotel, but the service is good, and I'd definitely stay here again."

"From the hotel it's about half an hour up the mountain (we walked there). A very nice place on the mountainside with a view of the neighboring Mount Ella and a waterfall, forest all around, local squirrels, an idyll. In general it's quiet, but from time to time a train passes below - a local landmark. It's convenient to start a walk from the hotel to Mount Ella, to the nine-arch bridge, to Mount Adam. Just go down and you're in the epicenter of city life. Wonderful hostess. The sweetest dog Nikki, we played with her all day. The room is spacious, with an exit to the veranda, where you can sit and look at the forest. Breakfast is served there. There is a kitchen with a stove and a kettle, which you can use. In the bathroom, bring your own soap, shampoo, etc. It's cool at night, but there are blankets for that. The breakfasts are nice: the hostess baked flatbreads, there is toast, fruit, an omelet. Please note: The lighting in the bathroom is dim, the water pressure is weak, but these are local peculiarities. As always, there is only one socket. Please note that it needs to be plugged in. There is no TV, kettle, refrigerator, air conditioner, there is a fan and a canopy from insects, but it is not hot here. A wonderful hotel, we left with regret."

"Just off the main bar and restaurant street, is this simple home stay. It's quiet at night and a good place to relax and get some sleep as you pass through Ella. It is at the top of a very steep hill."

"The hotel is excellent, everything you need in the room is there, even slippers, furniture and plumbing have been updated. It is located near the street with restaurants, 5 minutes down the hill. Walking to the start of the trail to the nine-arch bridge is about 20 minutes. We had a room with a stunning view, mountains and a waterfall are visible from the window. Good place for the price/quality ratio"

"The hotel is on the hillside, with a good mountain view, the room bathroom is super large, the only room that is not damp in the 20 days of living in Sri Lanka, if there is air conditioning, it will be perfect.  It is more than 20 minutes' drive from Ella Town.  Ella is mostly sloped . It is basically a curved path to various hotels and homestays. It is very suitable for  people who want to be quarantined for a few days to live for a few days. I especially want to praise their service team. A few simple warm and friendly local boys, they really want to be good to every guest staying, thank you for the delicious breakfast."

"Very good place to stay with awesome views. The staff took great care off us. Only downside to gaving good views the location is quite far from the city centre. So pick me and uber drivers won't take any rides since the app prices are way cheaper so no choice but to pay tourist fares. Room as an electric fan but AC would have been nice."

"**”An Outstanding Stay at Alta Vista – Highly Recommended!”**   We had an **absolutely wonderful** experience at Alta Vista, thanks to the **exceptional hospitality** of **Nandan and his team**. The **spacious, well-equipped rooms** (with both fans and AC) provided a **comfortable and relaxing retreat**.   The **breakfast was a highlight** – a **delicious, wide spread** that set the perfect tone for our days.

WhatsApp will speed up things. Service was prompt if you have a Srilanka number over phone call."

"On a hillside, the road is extremely difficult to find. Opposite is the woods, there are monkeys, squirrels, birds, very ecological, so there must be mosquitoes. No air conditioning, the toilet light changed, and the boss could not be found. There is no front desk, it is an uncle who runs his own business. He wants breakfast and coffee. He is very arrogant, and the uncle is scared to run down the stairs and scare me!"

"位置很難找到，必須要聯絡老闆才找到，但確實有驚喜。不是很漂亮的房間，但整潔，有熱水，有大陽台可以見到猴子。老闆很友善，個人認為比傳統酒店好。但晚上步行出大街會很黑，要小心。"
