The location is not far from the downtown area but far enough to have a relaxing stay. You can easily walk to small Adams Peak and the 9 arch bridge from there. The host was a wonderful gentleman who made sure my stay was an excellent one and provided me with useful information during my stay. He even arranged my transfer to Trincomalee which I appreciated. The room itself was very comfortable with a fan that kept the room at a nice temperature as the nights are cool.Nice bed and good hot water pressure.

Unfortunately my friend and I were not able to really enjoy the comforts of this place because we were so busy running around Ella. However, the homestay owners were the friendliest, the view was breathtaking, and I loved how quiet it was. The shower had hot water, the place was so clean (and so is the town!), and the beds with the mosquito net made me feel like a princess. Be mindful of animals.

The view was beautiful around sunset and in general. The breakfast was fantastic! We even packed some food for the rest of the day. The host was lovely and helped us park and get around. Also, she was helpful with the tuk tuks. Definitely a place to come back to.

The breakfast was delicious and the staff were incredible -- do the cooking class! The hot water wasn't always super hot but the rest of the room, location, and vibes make up for it.

The view from the cottages is breathtaking. You can see the sunrise, a lot of chipmunks, peacocks and it's just absolutely beautiful. It is right next to the train line where all people walk when they want to get to Ella rock. The host was the most accommodating and kindest one we've met so far. The hotel is a bit further from the main street, so a tuk-tuk is needed to get there and he came to pick us up. He dropped us even a couple of times free of charge for no reason at all. Breakfast was delicious and the room was very clean and cozy. Our host was so kind and nice, best customer service! We loved our stay at the Ella 100 view cottages and we recommend! :)

The owner was very helpful and communicative before we got to the property. He picked us up from the train station late at night, and arranged transportation for us after eating dinner back to the property. The location is a little bit outside of the main town area which was good for us, nice and quiet at night. Every morning we got a huge breakfast made by the owner which was customizable depending on your own taste. He can help book drivers to different spots around the area. Good value for the money.

    This is a cute hostel near the center of Ella. The location is strategic for those who will visit the Nine-Arch bridge and little Adam's peak. It is also a short drive to Ella railway station. There are shops around the cottage which are very helpful for immediate purchase and emergencies. The host is very kind. The room is spacious with seating area, dresser and toilet. There is also a cabinet for your clothes. There is a dining area just outside the room which is very comfy and relaxing. We had a lovely and filling breakfast.
