10. MOMO ELLA

Ella

"This hotel has up side and quite a bit down sides. The big up side is the breathtaking view and the perfect staff (Gadjen). The down sides are both the fact that in order to go to Ella you must take a tuktuk. The owner taking advantage of the hotel isolation from the city and chrges unusually expensive rate for breakfast, whuch we were not informed in advance. 2 family breakfast cost as much as a night's stay in the hotel."

Ella

"We stayed 4 nights at Walaa Kulu, and it was nothing short of exceptional. The villa is truly luxurious, beautifully furnished, and designed to take full advantage of the stunning panoramic views that surround it. Every room offers a breathtaking outlook — the kind that photos simply cannot capture. The heated pool overlooking the lush green hills was an absolute highlight, allowing us to enjoy a relaxing evening swim even when the air cooled down. What really made our stay unforgettable was...

Top Ella Hotel Reviews

Elevate Ella Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Spacious rooms, comfy bed, plenty of filtered water in the room, great heated saltwater pool - perfect during a rainy afternoon as it has a roof over half of it and you can swim up to the bar! Staff very polite, good breakfast selection - I actually preferred it when it was cooked to order rather than the buffet (we experienced both during our stay and it changed depending on how busy the hotel was). We had a couple of lovely lunches there too - great fish and chips! It's a short (very steep) 350m walk from the town centre but if your room is one of the highest/furthest rooms from reception, you'll be doing another 140+ steps on top to get there! Not for the faint hearted! Apart from that, only gripe would be to have an extractor fan in the shower room over the mesh window - more effective and would remove being able to hear guests next door in their bathroom."

Ella Flower Garden Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The property was so beautiful and the views from the room were outstanding! The hotel is conveniently located super close to the both the 9 arch bridge and little Adam’s Peak. Everything was so clean and well put together. The breakfast so delicious as well! The service provided by Hansani and the rest of the team during breakfast was efficient, fast and friendly. A special shout out goes to Dammika who helped us bring our bags up to our room and was already ready to help us check out! His friendly smile and welcoming nature made us feel so happy and welcomed it made the experience at the hotel so much more worthwhile! Will definitely come back here next time!"

The Cubes Ella

10/10 Excellent

"Well . We have travelled for 12 days now The cubes was our best hotel so far on our visit. I would have given 6 stars if available. This was made by everyone on the team. Rishard made us most welcome and after a few hours we booked a another night making 3 nights in all Our room was spacious and very clean We arrived in the late afternoon decided to eat in . Primal was the chef and produced marvellous curries . He is very jolly and welcoming Next morning after a great breakfast we headed out to the tea factory I thoroughly recommend the tea tour We had a great time in Ella and made by our stay at the cubes It’s a 10 out of 10 from us Terry and Sheila"

Misty Hills Ella Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at Misty hills. The view was incredible, the staff so helpful and delicious breakfasts with an egg and omelette bar included. The room was cleaned each day with a balcony view out into the hills that stunned us every time we looked out. It was a good location - 15 minute walk into the centre, however they also organised hiring a scooter for us for our 2 days which we would recommend to anyone wanting to explore the wider bits Ella has to offer. The property is slightly rough and ready compared to the photos but this did NOT take away anything from the experience of our stay. The view made it one of the best spots we stayed in. We highly recommend Misty Hills to anyone wanting the best view Ella has to offer."

Hotel Alta Vista

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed the pool which was lovely. The hotel is up a long steep driveway which was fine for us although tough in the heat but if you have impaired mobility it would be worth using a tuk tuk to get up (if they do very short trips??) the room was clean but simple. Bathroom was spacious.. curtains not overly dark but we were happy to get up early. Staff were friendly but no breakfast (off season so fair enough) but plenty of awesome restaurants, cafes and bars and shops down the driveway in the main Street. Great location as the main drag was right at the base of the driveway!!! Plenty of local activities. The tuk tuk drivers are more than happy to take you to waterfalls or the 9 arches bridge and other sights"

Hide Ella Hotel & Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was spacious, clean, well-organized, and featured a sleek, modern design. The absolute highlight was the views—simply amazing from everywhere we went, including the room, restaurant, bar, and pool. The buffet breakfast was delicious with plenty of variety. A special shoutout to the staff who provided truly outstanding service. The location is ideal: perched on the hill so it’s easy for cars to access, yet still well within short walking distance of the town center, shops, and restaurants. Highly recommended!"

98 Acres Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing place. Can’t fault a single thing. We stayed in a two bedroom suite and it was amazing. Staffs are very polite and helpful. Always ready to help with a buggy. Spa was amazing in a very scenic set up. Secluded yet just a few mins drive to main city centre. Pool area is nice but the pool is rather small. Breakfast is very good, made to order. Complimentary guided trek to little Adams peak just behind the resort. They gave discount vouchers for Ravana pool club and zip lining but we didn’t have time to try. Overall fully recommend."
