The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the receptionist lady was amazing. She went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Ella. I have stayed at dozen of hotels in Srilanka. This was on the top of the list of best stays ever and its because of this receptionist she just was somthing which cant be discribed from words. She has got such a pleasent and polite conversation.
The best hotel I’ve ever been privileged enough to stay at. Good rooms (there was even a tv). Also, they are one of few hotels that allow people under 21 to book a reservation. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Ella,

The Residence is a very cute property located in nature, and very close to the main viewpoints of Ella.
The style of the building is charming, and the staff is very helpful, reactive and welcoming. It’s easy to find, and you can park a scooter there if you’ve rented one. Breakfast is served directly to you so you can enjoy it from the terrace of your room. Otherwise, it’s calm, and you can also appreciate all the tropical birds singing.
The bathroom was clean, and spacious. You can grab a tuktuk very easily or walk around to enjoy the awesome views of Ella.

Hotel was located in very green area, surrounded by nature, beautiful place. Very tasty breakfast ( fruits, coffee, tea, fresh juice, all kinds of eggs, bread, sweets, marmalade) was served next to the garden, in very relaxing, calm area. Rooms were clean, super view, modest but nicely decorated. Staff was super friendly, helpful, smiled, always supportive with transfer for good price and all other needs and requirement. We highly recommend the hotel.

Ella has the most spectacular location, really gorgeous.
Ella has the most spectacular location, really gorgeous. The train trip was wonderful. The waterfalls all around are lovely. The stores in town were fun.
But we were surprised by how many tourists there were, how crowded and overdeveloped. The giant outdoor screens, the competing loud music, the catering to western travelers made it less fun than other areas of Sri Lanka.

Nice little town, you can do some nice outdoor activity such as trekking to little Adam’s pick and zip line, see the waterfall, the famous nine arch bridge, enjoy some good meals in one of the restaurants on the main road.
Rice&curry at the Chill cafè is very good, the dream cafe has an international cuisine so I had a chicken wrap also really good, instead at The Barn I had a really good overnight oat breakfast.
You can also take a cooking class some restaurants offer this activity three times a day 11am, 4pm and 7pm or you can also enjoy a yoga class usually you don’t need to book classes are at 8 am or 4 pm.
In my opinion one night and a full day is enough to visit the main things.

This is such a nice town, good and plenty of food options. Lots of bars and the surrounding is very beautiful. You get spoiled here with waterfalls, hikes and so much greenery.
Loved arriving here with the train, meeting other travellers and eating plenty of delicious food :)

Ella is a chilled laid back kind of place like Bali used to be, However the TukTuk Mafia are despicable rude, price gouging and trying to rip off every tourist. If you go to Ella take your own transport. You can rent your own TukTuks and Scooters. I encourage people to use Uber andPickme it works in Colombo. Honest TukTuk drivers are bullied in Ella As well as other tourist hubs in Sri Lanka.

Good starting place for visiting the mountain area of the country. Downtown noisy and inundated with tourists. Those who want a quieter but equally stunning settling but somewhat more limited in amenities may do better staying in a smaller and nearby setting. If you are taking the amazing train ride, do so ‘backwards’ and start in Ella area.
Lovely stay at W1 Ella, hosts were fantastic and very accommodating. The views from the veranda were stunning too! Very comfy beds and good facilities. Also huge breakfasts!
You can walk to Ella Rock from here, along the train track and also into town. Lots of bars, restaurants etc close by, around a 15-20 minute walk. Make sure you have more than just flip flops with you.
Beware, the road leading up to the hotel is not suitable for any cars. You can rent mopeds or a tuk tuk will take you up there but definitely don’t drive a car!
I stayed 20 days in Sri Lanka but the only night I spent in Ella was the worst night. It rains all the time so you can't enjoy the city. I took a tour around, so a very bad insect hit my feet and made blood flow from them profusely. But the hotel staff and manager did the necessary and dealt with the matter very quickly and took care of everything .. I found the hotel average compared to other hotels and beautiful compared to the guest house. The staff is amazing, especially Isuru Karunarathna, he was really a professional gentleman.
At GREEN CLOUD VILLA, kindness isn't just a gesture; it's a way of life. From the friendly smiles that greet you at check-in to the thoughtful touches in every corner of the villa, their commitment to kindness shines through. Whether it's a warm conversation over breakfast or a small gesture of hospitality, their genuine care makes every moment feel like home. Staying here is not just about luxury; it's about experiencing the true meaning of kindness.
The room was so clean and well organized. The room was new with the all staff in it. There were some well thought details in the room like convertor first aid kit etc. The owner and his son Supun were so friendly and helpful. Hotel was located on the top of a hill with an amazing green mountain view. Traditional Sri Lankan breakfast served by the owner was so delicious. If you are going to visit Ella, Misty Peak View must be your place for staying.
Super nice host. Made very delicious breakfast each morning. They have a small restaurant just next to the Apartment.
The view into the valley is gorgeous from 2 sides. Good opportunity to put the hammock between the trees on the other side of the upper street.
I booked it to be alone and have my space without distortion. That worked out here. So if you do not have big claims for luxury I would definitely recommend this place.
The One Ella is only two boutique apartments situated near Little Adam’s Peak, well away from busy downtown Ella. View to Ella Rock - perfect for chilling in the patio hammock. Lovely friendly staff. Breakfast served on your patio. Bed, bathroom, room - all good. Within walking distance of Little Adam’s Peak, the Nine Arch Bridge and only a short tuk tuk ride to downtown Ella though there area number of restaurants very nearby.
We spent only one night in this beautiful hotel, located in a top of a mountain and 200m from the city centre, kavish and his team assisted us with everything what we wanted, they kept the kitchen open for bit late so that we could order food after we arrived late at night. Food was so delicious, and the breakfast too
They helped us to book tuk tuk to get down to ella Town.
This place deserves five stars for everything
Literally we loved everything in this charming hotel. Actually it is a 3 stars hotel but the service, the cleanliness and the service of this hotel was better than many 5 stars hotels we tried in Sri Lanka. The staff is very professional and polite, the rooms were super comfortable and clean, and the location is perfect in the heart of Ella. Not to forget the breakfast that was delicious with generous portions.

Super Delicious Breakfast with local Pancakes.My room was very Comfortable and Peaceful.Always Feeling I am in the Jungle .Balcony view quiet natural forest and little mountain view.I got lot of photographs from my room Balcony.hotel staff help at all things.they arranged my next trip.thanks again your hospitality.

Great rooms. Good location, close to town
Breakfast was included and was superb (Sri Lankan style)
Obliging hosts
Good Internet

Recommend to anyone if you are not looking for luxury amenities
The hotel is right in the town of ella which makes it super convenient. It is close to so many restaurants and shops, and you can hike from there to all of the major landmarks. The bed was big and comfortable. We had our privacy and the staff was so nice and helpful with any kind of enquiries we had
Majestic View of Ella Rock & Little Ad. Peak, Top Quality Room, aminities & Staffs,
they provided us a complementary honeymoon bed decoration whuch was made by Hotel Service Keeper Dinesh, who was an excellent person, and well behaved, special thanks to Dinesh. just loved the Hotel
There is a reason why the ranking of this hotel is tops in Ella. Room and location can’t be beat. It was a pleasure to chat with Obey during my stay. Not many places will they provide you with some dinks and treats for your next travel day. I look forward to my return.
It was new experience for us to stay in a amazing views with wonderful service prompt efficient by the property owner. Recommended place in Ella if you want a luxury feeling with best effortabl price range. Love the service 💕💕💕💕
The view is indeed amazingly beautiful! That alone was worth the stay. However, on top of that the staff was kind and helpful, and the hotel offered tuk tuk services around Ella for fair prices. Loved it!
Staff were lovely - room was nice. Stunning view from top of the hotel. We stayed at another hotel in Ella and this was easily the best hotel in Ella. Worth the money. Great wifi as well.
The views are absolutely outstanding. Very close proximity to 9 arches bridge, walkable. Ella is a tuk tuk ride away which the hotel easily arranges. Massive room and excellent breakfast
For the money paid it was a great hotel and away from the crowds of Ella. Easy down hill walk to town or pop up the road and take railway track to Ella station and top of town.
