    It is very safe and tourist-friendly, nice climate. not hot, not tool, cold. Nice view of the mountains. Lot of foreigners. Food and services are mostly for foreigners which is not too hot, a good mix of local and international food, but very reasonably priced.

    We loved the Mountain View’s.

    We loved the Mountain View’s. The Main Street is a little crowded and all of the walkways are uneven. Everything is on a hill and there is a lot of walking . Stairs do not have handrails. The sites to see in the city are not easily accessible without transportation. Tuk tuk rides are very bumpy. Most of the tourists in the city are young . As an older traveler over 70, I would not recommend this location to an older adult unless you are very healthy and have good stamina for walking, heat, and bumpy rides.

    Ella is in the mountains so there is a lot of walking and lots of stairs and climbing. We saw young back packers as the majority of visitors. It was hot and humid so drinking water was very important. The tea plantation tour was good and informative. The arches trip involved a harrowing drive up a narrow bumpy road. Waterfalls were always full of people. The town is great with lots of dining options and great shops!

    The amazing and perfect nature around Ella is getting over exploited. Too many buildings (hotels in particular) are under construction in the delicate hills of Ella, they should protect the environment as the place will loose its magic if it becomes just some kind of shopping mall / tourist centre. The hotels are already enough, no need for more.

    Ella is truly one of the hidden gems of Sri Lanka.

    Ella is truly one of the hidden gems of Sri Lanka. Tucked away in the hill country, this charming little town offers a perfect blend of natural beauty, adventure, and relaxation. Surrounded by lush green tea plantations, misty mountains, and cascading waterfalls, it feels like stepping into a postcard. One of the best things about Ella is how laid-back and peaceful it is, yet there's so much to explore. Whether you're hiking up Little Adam’s Peak or the iconic Ella Rock, walking across the Nine Arches Bridge, or just enjoying a quiet tea with panoramic views, every moment feels special. The town itself is small but full of character, with cozy cafés, local restaurants, and friendly people. It’s also very traveler-friendly, making it easy to get around or find a good place to stay. And let’s not forget the cool mountain air—a refreshing change from the tropical heat in other parts of Sri Lanka. If you're planning a trip to Sri Lanka, Ella is an absolute must-visit. Whether you're a nature lover, a backpacker, or just someone looking to unwind in a scenic spot, Ella will leave you with memories you'll never forget.

    It's a beautiful place on top of the mountains, surrounded by mountains and clouds, just like in a heave. Food was delicious 😋 I can never forget the rice and curry bowl I had at Serenite. It's a perfect place for peace, that relaxes your senses. Ravana waterfall is a must to visit.

    Staff were excellent, so friendly and helpful, always offered to drive us down the hill to the town. Amazing views from all aspects of this hotel. From showering overlooking trees to the rooftop bar with views of Ella rock. Bed was very comfortable. Restaurant on site with some tasty options and 2 hours of 241 cocktails. We preordered our breakfast and it came out promptly for the time we stated. They also came and collected us from the train station ☺️

    We had a fantastic experience at Moi Ella by DBI. The hotel offers a perfect mix of luxury and comfort, with stylish, well-appointed rooms and attentive service. The modern decor is sleek and welcoming, and the amenities are top-notch. The on-site restaurant serves delicious meals, and the location is ideal for exploring the area. Overall, a great choice for anyone looking for a relaxing, upscale stay. Highly recommended!

    This is a really lovely homestay! It is clean and comfortable and a wonderful haven oasis in the jungle, away from the hectic main road of Ella town. This is not a 5* luxury hotel, it's a clean and comfortable room part of a family's home. It is a little walk - 20 minutes on hilly bumpy road - from the main town, but for me it was perfect. You are already on the way to climb ella rock! I really enjoyed my stay here.
