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

Beautiful view directly from the room. Very nice staff especially Ravindu . The accommodation is 5-10 min away from the center, but there is never a problem with tuktuk. Great willingness on the part of the landlord. We were very satisfied, thank you

Great location! Quiet spot off the main street but still walking distance into all the restaurants and shops! The host was so kind and welcoming!! We had a Sri Lankan breakfast which was delicious and she made us breakfast to go for our second morning as we had an early train!! Bed was so comfy and the room was huge with everything you need!!

Perfect location, great views, near railways, so you can see the trains passing by. In 7 minutes you can walk to Ella. The other way on the railway will bring you to the waterfall en Ella Rock. When you just passed the trainbridge, go down, and ask the women for guiding you to a beautiful viewpoint. On your own its difficult to find. Breakfast is good. The caretaker Lashman is gentle and tells a lot of things to visit/to do. From were you will have breakfast, the view uphill is lovely, looks like a jungle. We parked our tuktuk just across the railway.

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.

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

nice host surely there would be a charming view, unfortunately there was heavy fog during our stay you could hear music and parties in the city center but it was quiet in the hotel :))
