Amazing view! Conveniently located close to the main street, but still felt serene and quiet. I would recommend staying at least 3 nights so you’d also have time to just enjoy the comfort of the accommodation with its beautiful views of the mountain and wildlife. Having a mini fridge in the room was a great touch! The hosts were very kind and helpful, even dropped me off at the bus station after checking out, as the uphill road to leave the accommodation is quite steep.

Hands down the hotel with the best view I have ever been in. Thimira the host was super friendly and helpful during our stay. Breakfast was excellent. The tuktuk shuttle service made it a big plus point.

We booked this place in the late evening and host quickly contact with us to confirm and give all information and even come to the road to show us the way to the place and help us with luggage as we were need to go up, so even before we come inside we were feeling that he care about us that already improved our mood after long drive. When we come inside he provide us tea with biscuits as a welcome drink. The room were pretty big and have even table and chairs. Also kettle and cups to do the tea was there for us. Everything was clean. Nights at Ella could be cold but here 2 soft blankets were provided to help. In the morning our host provided nice traditional breakfast that we enjoyed eatting looking at the breath-taking view (at night and in the morninqg it was very beautiful to see). So I can recommend this place a lot as we were feeling surrounded by care on every step here and we are really grateful for that

It was truly incredible. Ella is a lovely place… but the city is noisy and a little overbearing. Staying at Fern hill is tranquil and the best of what all travellers who come to Ella are about- the views!! The brothers who run this place are the best… they will do anything for you… and are always around for a tuktuk drive to where you want to go.. and cheaper than tuktuks in Ella. The food was amazing. As was the breakfast too. There is no way you will be disappointed with staying here. It was beyond our expectations. Thankyou so so much.

We really enjoyed our stay at Mountain shack. Comfortable and clean rooms, super friendly and helpful family. They made us big delicious breakfasts each morning at our preferred time, and helped us with getting tuk tuk rides. It’s about a 20 minute walk to the towns Main Street if you take the little shortcut that goes up to the train station up from the road. We didn’t mind the walk as the homestay was in such a nice scenic area and away from the noise of the town.

We are fortunate to have travelled the world and can say this is one of our favourite accommodations ever. The rooms are ginormous, so spacious, modern, the view is indescribable, the breakfast is some of the best food we've had in Sri Lanka. The staff are so kind and helpful and will make sure you have an amazing time. I cannot believe the value for money of this place, can't recommend it enough. Thank you Shan and Tina for such a memorable stay, from Fahad and Shahad

We stayed three nights in Pramitha's family room. The hoste was very respectful and friendly. We received a delicious breakfast every morning. The location is a bit higher in the mountains than other accommodations but definitely doable on foot (you can take shortcuts through steps), you are in the city center in 20min. Highly recommended!

Nice play to stay a little bit further away from the business of Ella. We stayed in the chalet. Next time we would choose for the newer accommodations, which looked stunning. Our room was certainly nice, but needs a little bit of love and attention. Private pool was amazing. Food delicious! We probably had our best curry from the whole trip!

Very nice and clean accommodation with a great terrace and view. The accommodation looks relatively new and very well made. The beds are very comfortable and there is even hot water in the shower if you wait a bit. Breakfast was very large, varied and delicious, the owners even cater to individual wishes and are very kind. One of the best accommodations we have stayed in Sri Lanka!

The views, the room, the balcony for breakfast. Our three night stay at Secret View was such a lovely experience and one of our best accommodations in Sri Lanka. We were able to explore Ella but also were more than happy to relax at the hotel when it was raining. Our host was so so helpful and was so kind to offer to pick us up and take us into town by tuktuk when we wanted. The location of the hotel is exceptional with views of mountainous landscapes and a gorgeous flowing waterfall. Thank you so much Secret View!
