Ravana Range Ella
8.5 (182 reviews)

Ravana Range Ella ★★★

📍 V2CW+J6X, Ella

"Excellent place! It's a 10-minute walk from the city center. The balcony offers a great view of the mountains! There's a small pool on the hotel grounds. Restaurant menu prices are above average."

Ella Nature Nest
8.0 (55 reviews)

Ella Nature Nest ★★

📍 V2CV+GJV, Temple Rd, Ella

"The female owner's hospitality was excellent, and we had a wonderful stay. She gave us information about local sightseeing spots, and when we told her we were going to Kandy next, she also shared some of the highlights there, making this a fond memory of our trip to Sri Lanka. We got caught in the rain while sightseeing in Ella, and when we arrived at the inn soaking wet, the warm Ceylon tea she had prepared for us was delicious and comforting. It was a perfect stay without any complaints, and we'll come again."

The Scenario Ella
9.1 (47 reviews)

The Scenario Ella ★★★

📍 Halpe road, Rathnagiri Estate Rd, Ella

"A very pleasant hotel. It's located a bit away from the city center, but that means it's very quiet in the evenings. There's a good restaurant nearby, and breakfast at the hotel is served on a terrace with an excellent view."

Tunnel Top Inn Ella
9.9 (27 reviews)

Tunnel Top Inn Ella ★★★

📍 V3G6+Q75, Ella

"When we originally booked there was only 1 review so we were hesitant to book but decided to anyway. It turned out to be the best decision and we couldn’t be happier. The room and view is absolutely beautiful. Watching the sunrise and hearing the birds from the big and comfortable balcony was a highlight of our trip. The hosts really thought of everything. They have a tuktuk service to take you into the city, the hotel is a few minutes walk from the nine arches, lots of amenities you might need, and delicious breakfast. We hope to stay again! Thank you."

Claython Hills Ella ★★★

📍 Green Terrace, Kithal Ella, Road, Ella

"A newly opened, truly comfortable and spotlessly clean accommodation in the Ella area. The breakfast is delicious, and the hotel owners have thought of everything for your comfort. I was very pleased and will definitely stay here again if I'm ever in the area."

Senu Ceylon Ella ★★★

📍 Madapathana, Kirimatiya, Ella

Nine Arch Jungle Inn
8.8 (8 reviews)

Nine Arch Jungle Inn ★★★

📍 No 1, Getehewelapathana Passara Road, 3rd Mile Post, Ella

"A couple of rooms in a house located directly across from the Nine Arch Bridge, surrounded by forest. Clean and well-appointed rooms, very good and plentiful breakfast served on the terrace overlooking the bridge and watching the trains clatter by. Very friendly and attentive service. The only downside is that to reach the main road, you have to walk down a very steep path that can only be accessed by Tuk-Tuks; make sure you have a flashlight...or a charged phone for the evening!"

Ella Village View Homestay
9.4 (189 reviews)

Ella Village View Homestay ★★

📍 Atulgashina road, kithalella, Ella

"Great accommodation near the town center, if you take the shortcut across the railway tracks. I had a fantastic room with a balcony and a direct view of the waterfall. A delicious local breakfast was served on the outdoor terrace. A good location for exploring the surrounding area. I would have loved to stay longer! 👍👍👍👍"

Ravana Range Ella ★★★
"Ravana Range has a lovely view of the valley with a great infinity pool to cool off in. The rooms are comfortable with showers that have good water pressure. The staff were fantastic from check-in through to check-out and gave great recommendations for places to visit. Very good food for dinner if you opt for the half-board option. The chef is also flexible to make changes where possible."

The Scenario Ella ★★★
"It offers great value for money, is in a newly built building, and is all good, but the location is a bit disappointing. However, even this is acceptable considering the price."

Tunnel Top Inn Ella ★★★
"Although the location is a little inaccessible, that’s how the beautiful view of train coming out from tunnel can be seen. And the inaccessible location is overly compensated by the service, there is TukTuk to fetch you from Ella Town or Ella station when you arrive. During your stay, they fetched us back from Ella town after dinner around 9pm to the accommodation for the convenience. Also upon check out, they sent us back to Ella station. So, you can to enjoy the view in absolute nature without compromising the convenience. Absolutely love the place. Just walking distance to 9 Arch."

Nine Arch Jungle Inn ★★★
"This place was great! The views, the nature, the peace, the breakfast!! I dont think you could be closer to the 9 arch bridge, outside the inn is the path to the bridge and its about 3min walk from there, downhill. Forewarned, I arrived in the evening and it was dark, I would suggest arriving in the daylight as its a little scary otherwise! The roads can only be accessed by tuktuk, they are very steep and you're so in nature my brain couldn't adjust to all the noises without visual clues...but once I seen it all in the daylight, it was amazing, my brain adjusted and I could appreciate all the nature noises. The roads are steep, but doable. Everything (other than bridge) is about 20/30min walk away. There are restaurants about 10/15mins away. I would recommend, it was one of my favourite stays, I enjoyed sitting on my balcony watching the trains come in, watching the monkeys or squirrels..enjoy!"

Ella Village View Homestay ★★
"The pictures on the website are VERY misleading. The room looks clean and basic but what we got was something very different. The host was lovely, no fault there but the room we got was grim. The bed sheets were stained, the mesh net around the bed dusty and full of cobwebs, no hot water, a light fitting above the bed with all bare wires, the ceiling and everything was lathered in mould and even the bed felt damp and smelt of mould. The final straw was two cockroaches and 2 snails greeted me in the bathroom in the morning. Lovely view but the room is not fit for purpose"
