Beautiful accommodation and a friendly, helpful owner! We felt very comfortable. Very clean room, very comfortable bed, and a beautiful view! The ride to the hotel was an adventure in itself; it's amazing what tuktuk drivers can do. The free tuktuk service to and from the city center was so nice. The only thing that bothered us was some loud work/noise outside beginning around 7am in the morning. Depart from that it was really quiet, and all we could hear was just nature! We can recommend this hotel to everyone, we really enjoyed our stay :)

We can highly recommend Fern Hill Cabins. Chathura and his family are warm and welcoming hosts who are always happy to help with any questions or requests – whether it’s organizing a TukTuk, arranging transportation to your next destination, or anything else you might need. Our cabin was new, modern, and spread over two floors – spotlessly clean, and with a breathtaking view over Ella. A nice bonus: we were able to enjoy a cozy movie night with the projector in the cabin. On request, Chathura can arrange a delicious dinner from a nearby restaurant, served right on the terrace in front of the cabin. Breakfast was fresh, varied, and lovingly prepared. Another big plus: the hike to Ella Rock starts right from the cabin. All in all, a wonderful stay!

This is a hidden gem! You may not think so when you first stand outside the building, but trust the reviews! Nadi is an exceptional host. So caring, kind and generous. The room is excellent. The bed is huge and really comfortable and the room has beautiful views into the valley. You will be spoiled with an incredibly delicious home cooked breakfast (a different one every day!). The location is also superb. A 6 minute scooter drive up the hill into town. Our stay has been exceptional, would highly recommend :)

The view from our room was beautiful! We could see Ella Rock, and Waterfalls right opposite. The staff was very welcoming and helpful. The road to the cabin was an adventure by itself as we had our own tuktuk. The staff however offered us tuktuk rides to the main road and back. The breakfast was also very delicious and it was delivered to our room by our request. I highly recommend this accommodation!

We had a wonderful stay! The private room was beautiful, tastefully decorated, and offered a stunning view. The host is such a kind and welcoming person — we felt comfortable right away.
