The entirely wooden home was an amazing sight and the view was even better. We arrived in the evening and woke up to a spectacular sight hearing the river/waterfalls down below. Absolutely stunning. The family that runs Wood Palace is amazing and has been great in accommodating us with anything we needed during our stay, first making arrangements for me as I was planning to propose to my girlfriend and later whilst our son got sick. The amazing starry nights from the balcony and fireflies lighting up the view topped it off. It’s located a little outside of Ella (5min drive) which made it very peaceful and quiet. The owner has a TukTuk and can bring you anywhere you need very quickly. Would definitely recommend! Thank you for a very memorable stay

Stunning property view, and the team is very attentive and kind. The location is amazing as you have direct access to many activities directly. Breakfast was also impeccable and the staff was extremely well. The food quality was perfect. The spa also gave us a lovely experience. Dinner is coupled with live music and a great selection of different food options.

Nine Skies is the definition of boutique luxury. It is a small hotel with only 5 rooms and the service we received from all the staff was truly so personable this really felt like a home away from home. The design of the whole hotel is beautiful with a wonderful living room, with a cosy fire in the evenings, and our suite room was beautiful with a terrace. The pool has an amazing view over the tea plantation. All the meals we had were delicious. Our host was very friendly and helpful, organising day trips for us and setting up our own table with lots of candles for dinner by the pool one evening, and also set up our own private breakfast at a look out point which were both lovely experiences. This hotel is brilliant if you want a very quiet, secluded spot in the Hill Country with excellent service and food. It is an expensive hotel but it is worth the money.

The Liyon Hotel was an excellent experience for my family. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms were very cleanly kept. The bathroom was clean and large, and the mini fridge in the room proved useful. The breakfast provided to us was exceptional and delicious. The hospitality of the hotel owner was commendable. The package is worth a lot more than what we paid, with such a good room and food for a very low price!

Ella Breeze is a wonderful hotel which I highly recommend. Rooms and service are great. It’s very comfortable and clean there. We also got breakfasts there during our stay - everything was fine. I want to thank manager Ajey who assisted us with helpful information about surroundings and helped us to organise transfer to Unawatuna even cheaper than they ask in the nearby taxi kiosks. Long live Ajey, may the power be with you!!!)))

The room is beautifully decorated, spacious,clean and with an outside patio. Nice bathroom with great amenities. Pity the bath has the jets to serve as a Jacuzzi but only functions as a normal bath. Would have been a nice addition to the room. The staff are very attentive and helpful and we also enjoyed a great dinner. Can say I had the best curry whilst in Sri Lanka at this hotel.

Our stay at Andriyala was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, the friendly and attentive staff made us feel right at home. The beautiful garden surrounding the property added a serene and picturesque ambiance, perfect for relaxation. The rooms were spacious, impeccably clean, and incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful stay. Every detail seemed thoughtfully curated, making it truly worth every penny. One of the highlights of our visit was the candlelight dinner by the pool deck, accompanied by a cozy bonfire. The setting was romantic and intimate, enhanced by the delectable meals prepared with care and creativity. Andriyala is a haven of tranquility and luxury. Highly recommended! Short this.
