"Friendly and helpful staff. Authentic hill country experience . Close to centre of town. Good breakfast choice. Ask for extra blankets as it's cold at night."

"We had a wonderful stay at Villa Nalanda. Visaka is an amazing host and provided us with everything we needed. All our meals were home-cooked and delicious, the view over the mountains was just incredible, and her team is so lovely. Would definitely stay again!"

"We had a lovely one night stay at Ferncliff, it was just lovely and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend as a very well run ‘b&b’ type hotel but much more luxurious. Bernard in particular was fantastic, especially his cooking — we had both dinner and breakfast there. Very glad we chose this over the ‘grand hotel’ in the end. "

"This hotel has a million dollar view!
I traveled in the shoulder season, meaning peace, no other guests next to my room so i enjoyed my veranda, seeing the most gorgeous sunrises. The rooms are clean, comfortable beds, Sampa will make sure you have a tuk tuk to get you to the town, delicious breakfast and so much kindness. Just keep in minf, if you are planning to party in Ella street bars this jotel is not convenient since it is up in the mountains, 2 km away from the town centre, no...

"I booked this cottage due to its high rating in Expedia.
However, my experience was not as good as other same price range hotels I stayed in Sri Lanka.
There was about 20 flies welcoming us that took hours to get rid of them.
The facility it self is not bad but needs more effort in maintaining the facility and welcoming the guest.
The breakfast was the same for two days and there was no excitement. Taste was not good as well.
Since the cottage is maintaining the high rate, management might...

"It was a cute vintage bunglow with 3 rooms. I really enjoyed the antique set up. The shower and furniture were so cute and antique. Customer services was amazing. Highly recommended!"

"Foods are okay.
Damaged/torn bedding and towels, dust came from the ceiling, used/dirty duvet covers, one bed was broken and kept top of the on the wood, outdated shower room.
Not value for money. "

"Hôtes incroyablement dévoués et accueillants. Toujours prêts à rendre service et à faire en sorte de rendre notre séjour plus agréable. Plusieurs suggestions pour découvrir leur coin de pays. Endroit calme et agréable. Chambres et parties communes propres. Par contre, chambres assez humides, mais j'ai l'impression que c'est une caractéristique commune à Haputale."

"We did not stay here! They would not check us in even though I showed them we had paid on Expedia. They wanted cash from us. They said Expedia doesn’t pay them and they wanted us to pay again. We didn’t because the place looked dirty and unfinished. We left. Now I’m trying to get my money back from Expedia. i got through on chat, Bupindher said someone from Expedia service would email me but they have not."

"Everything was outstanding, the staff was friendly, extremely polite and made sure everything was to our liking. We splurged in the dinner train experience. It was well worth the extra. The experience will forever be forged in our hearts and memories..if you can afford , take the time or value a different experience go for it ♥️"
"Personnel très serviable et arrangeant. Chambre et sdb propre. Je tiens juste à préciser que la sdb est en dehors de la chambre.
Ils ont vraiment répondu à toutes nos questions et nous on aidé pour louer un scooter ou encore recommandé des restaurants. A seulement 10min de la ville d’Ella, je recommande pour être dépayser tout en étant pas loin de la ville "
"The staff were so kind and lovely and willing to help with anything. The breakfast was delicious and served in a really charming sunny room. We would definitely stay here again."
"Well run small hotel. The room was large, adequately equipped and the AC was fine. Dinner and breakfast in the cafe/restauarnt was very good - maybe the best ‘Sri Lanka Curry and rice’ I had during my touring holiday.
All the staff were really friendly and happy to carry my bags up the couple of flight of stairs.
All in all, a good hotel and would recommend "
"Lovely hotel, with an amazing view of the mountains from our balcony. Very comfortable bed and the staff were friendly and helpful. 15 minute walk from Ella City which makes it feel very peaceful. "
