Levon Boutique Hotel

Best view. You can take a look directly to the train, mountains and forest from the balcony. And there was the best hotel manager. He stood up at 4:30 to make breakfast for us. We had a very pleasant stay. It is close to the Train Station. We can totally recommend it.

Dave provided an amazing experience at the Levon Hotel. He took care of us from start to finish. The breakfast in the morning was an amazing spread of traditional Sri Lankan tastes. The room was comfortable, the views were beautiful and the location outside of Ella was fabulous.

A beautiful haven in Ella. We loved this hotel, so special, intimate, with a beautiful terrace and extremely peaceful immersed in nature. Breakfast was incredible, thank you for your kindness and hospitality David! We stayed here for one night our honeymoon tour of Sri Lanka and it was a highlight!

We had just the perfect stay! Hotel is newly renovated, very comfortable and very clean. The stuff takes care of every detail. The bed was one of the most comfy we have ever slept on. The area is local, quiet and very green. Breakfasts were yummy, Sri Lankan style. And the owner was so friendly! Do not hestitate and book a stay there! :) We felt so good there that we decided to stay longer! Greetings for all the hotel crew!

We booked the newly renovated Levon Hotel for 2 nights, but extended to 3 nights due to the fantastic location and very friendly welcome and service from the owner David and his amazing local staff. The location is breathtaking, overlooking Ella Rock and is conveniently situated only 3 mins walk from Kithalella railway station, so very ideal if arriving/departing Ella by train. Away from the relative chaos of Ella town centre, the hotel is still only 10mins (4 US Dollars) by readily available tuk tuk/taxi. The rooms are spacious with either a balcony or garden view and all overlooking the valley, plantations & forest. The rooms are very comfortable and come fully equipped with high quality bed linens and tea/coffee making facilities. Internet connection is excellent and could be used for remote working, if needed. Breakfast is a must, due to the high quality of the service and local menu and the incredible views from the covered restaurant terrace. Highly recommended when visiting Ella and the surrounding area!

Levon hotel is a little oasis that delivers stunning scenery and complete tranquility. It is perfectly located for short trips to all tourist attractions. Food was outstanding, we chose the Sri Lankan breakfast. It was delicious. Room was comfortable and beautifully presented. Most notable of all was the fantastic service , attention to detail and hospitality of the owner Dave and his team . Can’t fault them. Highly recommend this place. We will definitely go again

A fantastic boutique hotel, great food and a perfect host David - recently refurbished rooms and under new ownership since June 2023 - I have travelled extensively and would recommend this hotel. The surrounding area with its view of Ella Rock is perfect

We made a great choice staying @ Levon Boutique Hotel. The room was very comfortable and extremely clean. The view from both the room and the open air dining area was impressive and the location very tranquil. The breakfast was a very traditional Sri Lankan meal expertly prepared. Having breakfast, watching the train and tourists alike amble up the hillside rail track to Ella Rock along with warm conversation with the host (Dave is an experienced Sri Lankan expatriate with extensive US hotel management expertise) made our stay both relaxing and authentic. We'll be back again before we leave.

If you’re looking for stunning unblocked views, fresh air, away from the tourist crowds in Ella - honestly look no further! The property is so convenient to get to by train, near the trailhead for Ella rock, and is situated on a little hill overlooking the railway tracks, which provides plenty of photo opportunities (the friendly staff and owner will readily share the train arrival timings so you won’t miss a picture perfect shot for your Instagram!) The rooms are very clean and have a very peaceful and rustic vibe. Levon feels absolutely perfect for a solo traveller looking for serenity, or for a couple to enjoy a romantic getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life. There’s very little light pollution too, making stargazing on a clear night simply amazing in the area. The friendly and charming owner, Sarath, shared with us his future plans for the place and we are excited to visit it again to see it come to fruition. We are not going to spoil the surprise here, so you’ll just have to visit and find out!
