Tea Ridge Ella by Sans

Tea Garden Holiday Inn

"We had a confirmed booking at “Tea Garden Holiday Inn” in Ella, but on arrival at 7 PM om 20th April, (after informing them in advance), the host /manager refused check-in, saying it’s “not suitable for elderly people.” This was never mentioned during booking, despite us having elderly family members and an infant. We were left stranded at night after a long journey. The host also misled us to another property claiming it was theirs, which turned out to be false and more expensive. Very unprofessional and irresponsible. I would not recommend this place."

Ella Flower Garden Resort

"A luxurious hotel with a great view and a pool on the balcony. A very good restaurant."

O2 Villas Ella

"This was the most perfect hotel I stayed in during my trip to Sri Lanka; it definitely deserves a five-star rating. We booked an executive villa. Downstairs was a large bed, and upstairs were two slightly smaller mattresses. The electric curtains opened onto a nearly panoramic glass balcony with views of the tea plantations, the Three Arch Bridge, and passing trains. The mini-bar was complimentary, with dozens of tea bags and four free glass bottles of water. Alcohol and other drinks were chargeable. The swimming pool was beautiful and photogenic, like an infinity pool. Definitely choose the option that includes dinner. Dinner was a five-course à la carte meal, very delicious and unique, but drinks were not included. Breakfast also included a very special crispy egg bun. The path to the restaurant offered many beautiful photo opportunities. The only downside was the abundance of mosquitoes. The only two bites I got during the entire trip were from mosquito bites I received while sleeping here at night."

Viewfront Ella

"Stay away from this hotel! The hotel rooms isn’t what’s pictured on booking sites, the entrance is through a forest on a mountain and through other buildings. The walls is stained, door is leaking, and the room are nasty. The entrance pathway crumbled under me so a nail went through my foot and got several scratches. It is NOT a hotel, not even a bungalow. I would rather sleep with the homeless dogs than stay there one night. We checked out 30 minutes after we checked in. At least the manager was nice enough to give a full refund and drive us to another hotel."

Ivory Canopy resort

Montes Ella

"This sweet little spot called SERENDIB ELLA BY TRAVEL CORNERS is a cool and relaxed guesthouse that's super close to all the good stuff like the Nine Arches Bridge, Ella Rock viewpoint, and Flying Ravana. You'll love that they hook you up with a free ride from Ella Railway Station to the guesthouse and back when you leave, and it's only a quick 1 kilometre from the centre of Ella. Plus, since the place is owned by Ella Spice Garden, you can score a 10% discount for the cooking class. We had an awesome time there and recommend it to others."

Amado Homestay (Family room)

"My accommodation in Amado homestay was the best we had in Sri Lanka! Very clean, beautiful with amazing view and so delicious breakfast!! The family is so kind and warm hearted. If you are looking a cozy and comfortable stay in Ella , you choose this homestay for sure ✔️"

Heaven Breeze Hotel Ella

Dowa Elegance Resort

"Amazing trip to Sri Lanka! Feel free to book 2 nights or more at the Dowa Elegance ! This hotel is an incredible experience! The staff is very welcoming and friendly. An hotel lost in the middle of the mountains, change of scenery assured. We recommend it. Sabine et Magali"

Ella Dream Catcher Resort

"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."
