Guest reviews for Onestar Ella
"Great view and nice location away from the city center"
"No safe and you had to pay cash which was not said on arrival or written on any booking."
"Amazing property views with the balcony overlooking Ella, and having breakfast on the balcony was so nice! Room in good condition and clean. Staff were welcoming and attentive."
"Walls were thin so you could hear rooms beside you, often meant waking up when you heard next door and hearing people talking"
"Great value for money Good standard breakfast Fantastic mountain and waterfall view."
"Nothing"
"As noted by other reviewers, the views are incredible. Ella Rock and a waterfall right in front of you from the balcony. The rooms are spacious and clean. Breakfast served at your door, and enjoyed out on the balcony. And very helpful caretakers. Easy walk into town and if you don't want to do the climb back, easily accessible by tuk tuk or car."
"Nothing that hasn't been mentioned by others. Noise travels pretty easily across the rooms through the floors/ceilings, so you can hear a lot from the other guests. We had mixed success with the shower and water pressure. Sometimes hot water and great pressure, other times only cold. Dependent on recent usage from the other guests as hot water is shared across the rooms."
"Hotel is located outside of the center of Ella. So you need a tuktuk to get to the center and in other sights. The view from the hotel is amazing. It is worth it. Also very quiet place. Hotel staff was very helpful. Breakfast was very good. You could eat it at the balcony. We overall enjoyed it."

"My best experience in Sri Lanka to date! Raghu was incredibly helpful and welcoming. This charming boutique hotel features only three rooms, each with a view of Little Adam’s Peak. You can watch the sunrise behind the mountain from your room. It’s also close to the city and rail the station. The breakfast was fantastic. Must stay if you’re in Ella."
"The path leading to this hotel is mountainous, so it’s a bit hard to walk back after dark."
"Good at All Helpfully and Friendly Best view from the hotel ❤️ Breakfast is fantastic Super Clean Room 💯"
"Aucun."

"My wife and I stayed here for two nights. The location is great, right next to Yala National Park. The huts are hand-built, made of clay, living in them is a unique experience. The host is very kind and friendly, helps in any way he can, we are very grateful to him for that and are glad that we met! 😊 The host also prepared some delicious traditional food for us. He will also help with organizing a safari, and can take you around the area himself and tell you interesting stories!"

"This was a nicely designed hotel, with spacious rooms. Conveniently located for Yala safari pickups. There was even a peacock to greet us every morning outside our balcony!"
Kasturi Arana Yala
"I can’t put into words just how beautiful and spectacular this place is. Honestly WOW! My rooms that had over 15 foot ceilings, everything made of stone, fans and air conditioning, the nature surrounding us, the Pool and the hotel grounds, the warm and amazing staff! My stay was short and I regret not staying longer. Just AMAZING and also the owner was there to answer all my questions and last minute demands. Don’t forget to tip the staff because they go over and beyond for you."

"What an unforgettable stay! The location of this camp is beautiful and perfectly located for the safari tour. You have direct access to the dune area during sun set hours. Just be aware that you will have to walk quite a bit through deep sand and there are a lot of nature sounds during the night."
"Staff going beyond expectations. Nice spot at the outskirt of the park. Amazing food experience - you taste many local dishes and they explain them to you in a lovely setting with candles and a campfire."
