Moi Ella by DBI

"Stunning hotel set high in the mountains offering amazing views. Staff were exceptionally polite and attentive. Room was reasonable size and offered balcony with incredible view over pool and mountains. Breakfast was very good and evening meal was good. The hotel is a little dated and disconnected but the vast pool, stunning views and great staff more than make up for its decor. They also helped book rail tickets which were proving a challenge so thank you."

Area 4 Eco Cubes

"Very basic accommodation (eg terrible shower/bathroom) for your money. Location is nice, but keep in mind you are 30 minutes(!!!) from Ella. Staff was very friendly."

Awesome Place Hotel

"We really enjoyed our time here. The views were breathtaking and the staff were exceptional. They appeared to really take pride in providing a great experience for their guests. The food and drink were really good especially the breakfast. The road to the hotel is a bit rocky but I thougut it added to the experience and was a bit of craic. All in all a real memorable experience."

Cranford Railway Retreat

Lilara Hills - Diyatalawa

"The hotel is nestled in the mountains, with a beautiful environment and a large terrace. The owners are a very kind couple, and the breakfast is plentiful, with delicious black tea. There are many photo opportunities around the hotel; I even captured the starry sky, the Milky Way, and fireflies from the terrace. It's incredibly good value for money and highly recommended."

Ella Dream Mount

"The hotel has problems!!! We were allegedly upgraded to a superior room. It was nice but I’m not sure what was superior about it. Water ran very slowly and the air conditioning kept tripping the electrics every 15 minutes. (Literally 3 times in 45 minutes when we got back from dinner and that doesn’t take into account the 4 or 5 times it tripped before we went out). When I complained the staff were very helpful and moved us to a room on the second story where we stayed for 2 nights. The door to this room was very badly warped but did lock. The water ran even slower than the first room but we managed a shower (just). The bath wasn’t attached to the wall and did not have an end panel. I’m not sure you could use the bath, we didn’t try! The windows were badly warped but the worst part was a floor to ceiling window that couldn’t be secured shut. If someone leant on it whilst brushing their teeth they would literally have plummeted 2 stories to the ground. I mentioned this to the hotel who said the room wasn’t finished!! Breakfast was good, service good, staff friendly, location quite far out of town. The hotel did say we may have problems with TukTuks and gave us the number of someone that worked well. Of the 6 hotels we have stayed in Sri Lanka this was by far the worst and we were pleased to leave."

Ella Flower Garden Resort

"We had a really nice stay with our family. Everybody was really friendly and kind, especially our waiter Lalith. The view out of the hotel is spectacular."

Clio Ella Resort

"I don't why there are negative reviews. it's a jungle resort and it lived to its expectations. you can't be staying in a luxury property in middle of jungle. arrival experience is amazing. adventure starts right from there. room is spacious and clean. view from balcony to stream is next to amazing. Best thing is the staff they treats you like king and makes you feel very special. very friendly and always ready to do whatever you ask. no is something I didn't hear. my 9 year old son enjoyed the activities also and last bath at river stream is most rejenuvating in our entire srilankan trip. the chef you received us on arrival and isuru at reception were great. no doubt everyone else is equally good. don't go by negative reviews. if you can walk and climb and need a different experience for your kids take then here. they will enjoy."

88th - Ella

"We stayed for 1 night. Very friendly staffs. The hotel doesnt have elevator but the staff helped to bring our luggage up. We even borrowed their umbrella to walk around the town when it was raining. Asif is very attentive and friendly staff who managed our stay including breakfast preparation for us. The only minus point is the swimming pool water is a bit murky."

Villa Republic Bandarawela (04 Bedroom)

"We stayed for 3 nights. The two caretakers were excellent and the food they cooked was delicious. Children had enough room to play around.One thing to mention is that they’re a very steep staircase to go upstairs.However, with supervision the kids managed well. Very relaxing, clean and well maintained villa with all mod. Cons. I hope the management provide the caretakers with a dishwasher at some stage. They were staying up late washing all the dishes by hand! We had a great stay. Thank you !"
