It’s a little high up on a hill, but the view from my balcony was gorgeous. It’s also right off the main street, so if you don’t mind the trek up and down you’re still relatively well-situated to be near the backpackers’ bars and restaurants and shops. Breakfast had a lot of local Sri Lankan options which I greatly appreciated, and staff was also happy to explain each dish to newcomers.
A small piece of advice for the team though: perhaps hire a few female staffers? As a woman traveling alone, one of the first things I noticed was the all-male staff—or at least, I didn’t see a single woman working there in my 2-night stay. I don’t have a problem with it, but newer solo female travelers might unintentionally be scared off
이 호텔은 엘라의 명소를 둘러보고 바로 침대로 돌아가며 하루 종일 머물 계획인 분들에게 완벽한 곳입니다. 저는 스탠다드룸(침대, 작은 테이블, 의자, 협탁, 샤워실/화장실)에 묵었습니다. 방이 너무 작아서 키가 190cm인 저에게는 침대에 누울 수 없었습니다.
하지만 주인과 친구분의 따뜻한 환대에 정말 감사했습니다. 두 분은 매우 친절하셨고, 제가 최대한 편안하게 지낼 수 있도록 최선을 다해 주셨습니다! 1층에는 넓은 베란다가 있어 저녁 시간을 보내거나 노트북 작업을 할 수 있습니다. 조식도 맛있고 균형 잡혀 있어서 정말 만족스러웠습니다. 이곳에서 여러 번 식사했는데, 모든 음식이 정말 맛있었습니다!
We stay here for 3 nights and it was a lovely experience! The rooms were clean and tidy, we got fresh towels each day and new bottles of water! They were happy to tidy the room each day which was the first time we had this on our whole journey in Sri Lanka so was a lovely extra touch for us but we were happy with just new towels and water!
They are currently renovating downstairs to build a restaurant so we were a little confused when we first arrived but this did not take away from the experience of the hotel, the staff were super friendly and accommodating!
The hotel is in the perfect location on the main road through Ella with bars, restaurants and shops everywhere! With the train station a short 5 min walk everything is accessible.
We would 100% recommend to stay here for your trip to Ella
