I just enjoyed a very nice 02 night stay with my wife at the beautiful hotel, will definitely be returning back to the same place with family. It was a newly opened hotel, and functioned very well with no issue, the rooms was spacious and clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful, food was amazing, the portions sizes were very big. The linen was not as soft, maybe because its still fresh, but overall loved everything.

This place has the most breathtaking panoramic view over Ella and the whole region — truly from another dimension. The atmosphere is incredibly peaceful, the property is modern and beautifully designed, and everything feels fresh and new. The food was absolutely amazing! One of the very few places where we enjoyed genuinely non-spicy food prepared with so much care and love. The room was comfortable, clean, private, and perfect for relaxing. The staff were incredible — extremely kind, attentive, and always ready to help us with transport arrangements and every question we had. We would absolutely recommend this place and will definitely be coming back!

One of the most unique aspects of the property is its exceptional location near Kithaya Ella, a lesser-known waterfall, which adds a sense of exclusivity. Guests can take a short walk to the waterfall, where they can enjoy the soothing sounds of cascading water while being immersed in nature. The service is personalized and warm, with staff who go above and beyond to make your stay memorable.

If you like nature, you have to book this place when you have the chance to! The view is simply amazing, directly looking at nine arches bridge, you can look at trains passing by all day long. The house is high enough that it isn’t too noisy, but close enough to just walk down to the bridge from the house. The view of the trees surrounding the nine arches bridge, for me, is surprisingly even more amazing than the bridge itself. Even though we visit on downpour days, and not possible to stay in the balcony at all times, the house still feels so cozy and the large windows allow us to enjoy the view all the same. The owner himself is also amazing. He took great care of us to ensure we have everything we need, and drove us into town and back to the house. He is always here! The breakfast is Sri Lankan, delicious, and the portion is huge! In fact, the house is one of the highlights of our Sri Lankan trip. Thank you! We hope we will come back some day!

Sunrise Mount View is a fantastic place to stay while exploring Ella. The location is peaceful, with stunning views of the surrounding mountains and a beautiful sunrise every morning. It's close enough to Ella's main attractions while still offering a quiet escape from the busy town. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Their hospitality made the stay even more enjoyable. Waking up to the fresh mountain air and scenic views was the highlight of the trip. I highly recommend Sunrise Mount View to anyone visiting Ella. It offers great value, a relaxing atmosphere, and an unforgettable experience.

Our favorite spot was Little Adam’s Peak, which was great for an easy outdoor activity and offered a wonderful view from the top. We ate at Chill Café, a nice, relaxed place with good food. I was impressed by the low cost of the food and drinks. Getting around Ella is very easy; you can move everywhere by tuk‑tuk at a very low cost. There are several family‑friendly activities, including pools, small adventure spots, playgrounds for kids, and even animal farms. Along the way, you can also see birds, monkeys, and other wildlife, which makes it fun for children. But if you love hiking and climbing, this is the place to be. You can easily walk 15 km a day just exploring the surrounding nature.

Ella was a buzzing little town lots of bars and restaurants surrounded by Amazing scenery. Must walk up to little adam’s of rai can get a tuk tuk to ravana adventure park and then walk or just walk from the town it isn’t far.

It's a very tourist-oriented place. We enjoyed the Little Adam Peak hike (lots of extra activities there) Ravana's Pool is a place to go for shore (stunning view from the pool and jacuzzi) Downtown offers a variety of food and places to listen to music and have a nice evening vibe. During our stay the disco and clubs were closed but usually there is a night scene apparently.

Loved Ella, stunning scenery. Don't bother with the train unless you have a seat, it's heaving like a London tube in rush hour so no chance of seeing the bridge or anything at all! The drive from Kandy was incredible. I'd recommend hiring a tuk tuk, great fun though a bit scary and roads can be crazy. 🤣

The view was amazing! You can see Little Adam's peak and Ravana falls. The breakfast was yummy and changed daily (omelette, hoppers, crepes, rotti, fresh fruit, egg toasted sandwich (jaffles), juice, tea and coffee). The rooms were spacious, clean and really nice shower with good pressure and plenty of hot water. Elevator was convenient for luggage. We stayed in the luxury room, howeve, can't say what the cheaper rooms were like. Quiet (no noisy busses). Breakfast ladies were lovely and helpful :)

The owner is very friendly and helpful in organizing TukTuks, Taxis and day trips. A nice way to get in touch with singalese people. You can walk to ella but it‘s not recommendable when it‘s dark because if the traffic. Tuktuk is easy to get, costs around 600 rupees. Rooms are very basic and simple, don‘t expect any luxury. Very good breakfast. Nice view
