Situated in Ella, 4.9 km from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge, Tantra Ella Lodge features accommodation with a terrace, free WiFi, room service, and a 24-hour front desk. With mountain views, this accommodation provides a balcony. Absolutely brilliant, I'm so glad we read all the reviews and found this hidden gem! What a great place, it will definitely keep getting amazing reviews so don't think twice about booking it! Some reviewers thought it was 'out of town' which we thought was hilarious, it's a couple of minutes walk down to the action, but with the reassurance that you can retreat to a peaceful jungle like setting with a really good chance of seeing the resident giant squirrel. Charming, chatty, helpful host who welcomed us with lovely coffee and cake, we felt very spoilt! He organised a very good taxi to the South Coast for a much better price than other places. Thank you so much, you made the trip to Sri Lanka very special!

Located 1.9 km from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge and 1.8 km from Little Adam's Peak, Barn Hills provides accommodation in Ella.

Ella Spice Garden is 3.6 km from the lodge, while Ella Railway Station is 3.6 km away. Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport is 87 km from the property. Everything ! The view, the fact that it was in a guest house with a really nice familiy ! They can help you with the tuktuk to go up to the main Road as the guest house is situated in the nature. The breakfast was really good! Don’t hesitate to book 💚

Guests at the lodge can enjoy an Asian or a vegetarian breakfast.

A terrace is available on site and hiking can be enjoyed within close proximity of NETHSARA cottage. The view was beautiful around sunset and in general. The breakfast was fantastic! We even packed some food for the rest of the day. The host was lovely and helped us park and get around. Also, she was helpful with the tuk tuks. Definitely a place to come back to.

Located 49 km from Gregory Lake, Ella Breeze Homestay provides accommodation with a garden, a terrace and room service for your convenience. The lodge features both WiFi and private parking free of charge. Amazing stay! Devaka was really welcoming and friendly - and even picked us up after our long day of hiking and dropped us back off the next day! Great stop off for anyone doing the Pekoe Trail - we finished the day in Makulella/at Allimale Junction and got picked up from here (only 5 min drive). Delicious food too!

Set in Ella, 7.1 km from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge, " YOLO " LOVELY COTTAGE offers accommodation with a garden, free WiFi, room service, and a 24-hour front desk. Located 45 km from Hakgala Botanical Garden, the property provides a terrace and free private parking.

Both a bicycle rental service and a car rental service are available at the lodge. A wonderful stay here - the good reviews are completely justified. The view is jaw dropping from the comfy balcony. It is well worth it to stay here out of the noise of Ella and be able to look at it from the hills. They also provide a tuk tuk service into town for very reasonable. The family was wonderfully relaxed and friendly while still helping you with anything you need (and they collect you from the train station!). The dinner here was the best we had during our 2 weeks in Sri Lanka - don’t skip it!

Featuring a garden and free WiFi, Arana Sri Lanka Eco Lodge and Yoga Center is situated in Ella, 3 km from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge. The property is around 1.1 km from Ella Spice Garden and 2.9 km from Ella Rock. The hotel offers mountain views and a terrace. Yoga classes are available at an additional charge. Amazing place, breathtaking views! We realized the moment that we checked in that we SHOULD have booked for two nights (or more) not one. I would have loved to have attended the cooking and yoga classes and simply enjoyed the majestic location.

Situated 6.1 km from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge, Cloudy Hill Cottage offers a terrace, a restaurant and air-conditioned accommodation with a balcony and free WiFi.

Guests at the lodge can enjoy an Asian breakfast. This has been our best stay in Sri Lanka without doubt. Renu is an incredibly inspiring woman, mother and co-owner who will do everything in her power to make your stay intimate, comfortable and convenient. She puts an umbrella in front of your door when it rains; she looks out the window to see how far you are to prepare breakfast; she brings everything to your table and removes it quietly. Not to mention the room, with its high double roofed ceiling that makes you feel like you’re in a nest on a treetop. It’s spacious, spotless clean (no sign of dump despite daily rain in Ella) and everything works perfectly, even though it’s literally a hanging cottage. The view from the bed/balcony is breathtaking and different every day, and you even see the famous train passing at your feet. DIGITAL NOMADS: we had quite good wifi, enough for videocalls most times of the day, but bring a sim card with data just in case.
