The location is beautiful, it has a very romantic vibe to it. The way they have built the wooden cabin is so aesthetic and well planned. The hosts were super helpful and the breakfast was amazing

We stayed for 3 days and 2 nights. It was a wonderful place with an amazing view. We wished we had more time, but we already had other plans. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly; he arranged our scooter rental and even picked us up from Ella train station. The free breakfast came with a beautiful mountain view, and if you’re lucky, you might even spot some monkeys! The room was clean and lovely. We’d definitely stay here again if we return to Ella.

The hosts are amazing, super welcoming even if they speak just a little English. The house is clean and spacious and is immersed in the jungle, still remaining few minutes from the main road. Strongly recommended !!

Don’t under estimate this place. Room had everything one might need including one of the comfiest beds and powerful showers so far in Sri Lanka. The room we stayed in had a fantastic view of Ella rock and a waterfall. It’s a very easy walk into Ella along the rail way tracks (this is normal in Ella I promise). Staff wanted to do as much as they could to make the stay at the hotel and time in Ella as enjoyable as possible.

I loved my 3-day stay and can't recommend this place enough! I was worried about the location but it was very easy to walk to the center, and to tuk tuk back at night to avoid walking along the railroad tracks (paid about 600 LKR). Staff were very friendly and breakfast was delicious Very comfortable bed, great shower with hot water and water pressure. The guesthouse is only about 3 or 4 rooms and each has its own little private balcony for breakfast.

The view is fantastic, very nice place, green, clean and the stuff are extremely friendly (we even had catch an early train and they woke up at 5am to make our breakfast). Breakfast is a lot with varirty (eggs, local pancakes, fruits, coffee, tea) served in the room at your balcony while you are having the best view. The place location is perfect, you just need to talk down the little hill, it takes you like 5min tops and you are in the city center, which is good cause you get the amazing view and silence. You can also walk to the Nine Arch Bridge and to little Adam's Peak from the hotel in under 45min. Highly recommended.

    we were flabbergasted by the view at ella gap from the rooftop. crew was amazingly helpful. they drove our tuktuk up to the guesthouse because we didn’t dare to drive the steep hill. hilltop is away from the busy and loud mainstreet. superquiet allthough 5 minutes from the centre. our host gave us the perfect advice to get around.

    Really great location just up from the high street in quiet area. Pleasant terrace outside room with place to relax. Good hot shower with good pressure. Large bed and friendly host who offered lots of travel advice. No aircon in room, but air cooler in room was sufficient
