Chill Ville, View Point Hotel

We came to Ella to this hotel and were amazed by the magnificent view. We stayed in the highest room and had a big terrace from where we could enjoy it all, while raining. The restaurant is quiet with excellent staff! We were served by a young waiter who did his utmost best to give as a good experience. You definetly want to try the Sri Lankan rice and curry. The breakfast has all the things you need it want.

We took the train from Kandy to Ella and after a tortuous Tuk tuk ride up into the hills we arrived at Chill Ville. We had a lovely welcome and the room was beautiful, very spacious and with a lovely big balcony looking out over the hills. We enjoyed a delicious evening meal, there are some really nice curries on the menu. My husband had ‘pad Lanka’ with prawns and I had a very tasty chicken curry with rice and plantain. We enjoyed a great night’s sleep and then woke up to the most incredible view. It is hard to describe how this place makes you feel, but there is a calming and wonderful atmosphere that transports you away from all of your troubles. It really is quite beautiful. The breakfast was lovely, a big pot of strong coffee and lots of delicious fruit, juices, pastries and hot options. The staff were all so friendly and lovely. Sadly we only stayed at this little piece of paradise one night but it will be somewhere we will never forget. Thank you so much for a lovely stay!

We had two nights at Chille Ville and wished we could spend more time there. What a nice location with privacy at the bungalows and great views all around. The restaurant is superb with a nice variety of meals. Harsha and his colleagues give the best service and spoiled us with cool beer and great cocktails. We fully recommend this place! Thanks to the whole team for giving us such a great time. Ella itself was too crowded and loud for us. The train ride from Ella to Badulla was an exciting adventure.

This place has a spectacular view, attentive staff, good food and pleasant rooms. . When we were there in April, there were hundreds of vine orchids in bloom. Context : During our 19 days in Sri Lanka, we stayed in 8 hotels. Two hotels were rated 5 star. We liked all of the hotels and, if we rated all of them on TripAdvisor, they would all get 5 stars. We were very satisfied with the breakfasts and dinners. With two or three exceptions all the dinners had very similar offerings. We always asked for the minimal amount of chilies. Many of the hotels were located far from the city they were ostensibly located in (possibly more than an hour away by car).

This small hotel is in reality far more beautiful than in pictures. Peaceful location and separate villas gives privacy. The staff is super friendly and the food delicious. You get easily a tuk tuk ride wherever you want to go and after coming back you can chill att the pool with a spectacular view. We enjoyed our stay very much and can highly recommend this place!

Fantastic stay here for 3 nights last week. Very friendly staff. Ella is very busy so we really appreciated being able to relax away from that, with only a short tuk tuk ride in to town when we wanted. Amazing views from all three rooms our family had. So peaceful. Great breakfast buffet each day plus eggs cooked fresh any way. Had dinner there one night, lovely food too. Would highly recommend.
