Downtown Hostels Ella

המיקום טוב והבחוץ של ההוסטל נחמד. ארוחת בוקר נראתה טובה.

לא היה מספיק נקי, היו הרבה חרקים בחדר ובשירותים... המזרון לא היה נוח בכלל. והמחיר גבוה יחסית להוסטלים אחרים ולמה שמקבלים

Schöner sauberer Aufenthaltsbereich, Vorhänge am Bett für Privatsphäre, Sehr nettes hilfsbereites Personal, direkte Nähe zum Supermarkt, Zentrale gelegen ohne an der Hauptstraße zu sein, 5 min zu Fuß vom Bahnhof, direkter Wanderstart zu allen Sehenswürdigkeiten möglich

Frühstück etwas knapp, aber trotzdem sehr lecker und für ein Hostel in Ordnung

Clean, beds where comfortable, lockers where huge, bathroom was clean

中心街と駅どちらも近くロケーションは最高です。 トイレ、バスはそこそこです。

泊まった際は宿泊客が少なくあまり交流がなかったです。

It is in a very good location. Walking distance to all the bars and restaurant. Staff were helpful and accommodating.

It advertised a continental American style breakfast but when we went for breakfast we were just given omelette sandwiches without being asked or told what the options were for breakfast. We also had a dietary requirement in our group which required attention and it was misunderstood.

Great property in Ella, off the main road but not more than five minutes to all of the attractions. They have tour services as well. The staff are friendly and welcoming, the room was large with strong AC, privacy curtains, a huge bathroom with hot water shower and comfortable beds -- also HUGE lockers. The terrance out back is quiet and comfortable with tons of seating. I can't recommend this place highly enough. Supermarket literally across the street -- and you should hunt down "The Little Restaurant" for lunch -- outside the Hamburger and Pizza places with local food at a great price.

I'm always miffed by towel rental -- but I suppose the price is low, so the 200 Rupees is me nitpicking.

Memnun kaldım, teşekkürler..

One of the best hostels I stayed in. Amazing people working there, they helped me with everything I needed and made my whole stay in Ella feel amazing! The rooms were spacious, with own bathroom, lovely social area, delicious breakfast and great location!

Tesis konumu mükemmel her yere yakın, odalar ve wc ler temiz, çalışanlar ilgili , ellada kalınabilcek en iyi hostellerden

Right in the city centre

Nothing

It’s very decent and spacious place . Great breakfast provide 👏🏾The staff is easygoing he borrowed me hair dryer and umbrella :) Sharing Room’s comfy especially shower and toilet are separate 👍🏾 AC very cold , big supermarket just outside very convenient!

There are a group of ppl came so made noisy sounds outside during morning

Great spot in the city close to everything

No locks on doors, no sense of security

God beliggenhed, gode family dinners og let at møde folk

The best location, walking distance to everything also the family dinner was delicious!

Beds are slightly old.

Staff were really nice and offered good genuine advice for Ella and helped me do the Yala safari. They were always very polite and welcoming and kept the accommodation very clean.

Central location, pleasant staff | clean, good WiFi, accepts credit card | appreciated included breakfast and different every day, filtered water, coffee/tea provided | dorm room: AirCon, privacy curtain, electric, reading light, big locker, clean linens | common space (picnic tables, couches) outdoors, under an awning | convenient grocery store (credit card) across the street | thank you

The staff were so kind & helped us to organise taxis, laundry, day trips etc. The hostel is in a great location, right off the Main Street in Ella but still quiet at night. The beds were comfortable & the rooms had plenty of storage. We also did a sunrise hike through the hostel to Ella Rock & our guide who works at the hostel was amazing!

The ladders on the bed were awkward & a bit dangerous. We had one bathroom between 6 people so we sometimes had to wait a while.

The staff are truly amazing and very welcoming. The beds are comfortable, and the hostel offers many activities such as shared trips and group tours, which is great for meeting people and exploring together. The shared balcony is a wonderful place to spend time - perfect for meditation, reading a book, or simply enjoying a cup of coffee or tea. The breakfasts were decent. The location is very convenient: only about a 3-minute walk to the train station and also around 3 minutes from the city center. The rooms are clean.

The place could be better maintained. There is some humidity in the rooms, and at times even small water leaks or drips. Also, the price is a bit higher compared to many places in Sri Lanka, but the atmosphere and social vibe make it worth it.

There are several activities available at the hostel, like cooking classes, dinners, also a shared Whatsapp group for the guests to plan things together. There's also a shared taxi service to the south that leaves at 9.30 am. Nice views from the terrace. The hostel is not in the main street but in a bit secluded area, so it's quiet too, still being very well located. There's a supermarket right across the street. It was a really good experience.

De locatie was echt perfect! Midden in het centrum, maar heeel rustig gelegen.

Deur om slaapkamer kon niet dicht, dus airco had geen zin, warm, vochtig, heel veel schimmel, geel/bruin water uit alle kranen, wc en douches.

The hostel offers good value for the price. The bed was comfortable, the sheets were clean, and the female dorm felt tidy and well-maintained. Overall, the sleeping area was comfortable and suitable if you’re mainly looking for a place to rest.

The kitchen area was a major downside. Early in the morning, I saw two large rats coming out of the cabinets and walking over the plates and glasses. The kitchen itself was not clean — there were leftovers on surfaces, open trash bins, dusty plates, and a fridge that was overcrowded and had an unpleasant smell. It didn’t feel hygienic or inviting for cooking or eating.

Love the social ambience as well as its close proximity to the central area. The staff are super helpful and welcoming. Loved their breakfast, too

The fact that there were no towels provided as well aa shampoo, and body wash. It would have been more comfy had they have them. We can just pay more. 😅

The rooftop.

WiFi is not working properly in the room.

一切都很好

有提供吹風機會更好

Nice staff and nice common lounge. Very large lockers in the room. Nice to have a curtain for some privacy.

My bed was right next to the door, which had a window while the light in the hall was on, so it didn’t get very dark. The room itself does not have a lock, but the big lockers made up for this as I could safely store my entire backpack. Other than that I had a very pleasant stay!

Sosyal, merkezde güzel bir hostel.kahvaltıları güzeldi.

Stayed in the 6 bed dorm and it was great. Very spacious with large lockers. Beds were really comfortable. They even gave me a bottom bunk bed after I requested when booking. Great value for money. Highly recommend this hostel if staying in Ella.

Nothing.

The best thing about Downtown Hostel Ella is the amazing people who run it. They create a warm, welcoming atmosphere that truly makes you feel at home. The rooms are comfortable, the washrooms are clean, and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. What really sets this hostel apart, though, is the crowd you meet there. It attracts some of the best fellow travelers you’ll come across in Sri Lanka, making the overall experience even more memorable.

The staff were very kind and helpful!

I was only there for less than a night due to early start to go to Yala safari but these guys are outstanding! The safari they organised plus the transport to the south were unbelievable!

Die Betten und das Zimmer war sehr sauber. Die Dusche hatte genug "Power" um die Haare zu waschen, was man nicht immer in Asien findet. Nettes Personal und perfekte Lage!

Die Duschen sind in den Gemeinschaftszimmern, was alles etwas laut macht.

Very helpful staff, they were easy going and gave advice about things in the area

THILA is the best host ever! The staff are really nice and the location is perfect!

Nothing related with the hostel mainly people with who I shared room but all good!

Spacious dorm, bathroom in each dorm, common area is quite nice and comfortable. Walking distance from all the pubs and bars, has departmental store right in front of it.

Great location, great breakfast.

Muy buen hostel! Personal muy amable, el lugar muy limpio! Habitación muy linda con un muy buen baño dentro, cama muy cómoda. El desayuno muy rico! Esta muy bien localizado, muy cerca de la está de tren y de bus por si vienes de uno y tomas el otro. Linda vista al bosque desde la terraza

Vriendelijk personeel, prima hostel, heerlijk ontbijt en centraal gelegen in het centrum en het station is in de buurt. Zeker een aanrader!

Really GREAT location! Everything is super clean, the bed is very comfortable, and the staff are incredibly friendly. Highly recommended!

Spending a little extra was so worth it. The staff was friendly, the breakfast amazing and the beds comfortable

You feel like at home Stuff very friendly

Very friendly host, nice rooms, breakfast changed daily, really nice location

Lovely staff, great location near town centre, trains station, while still quiet and peaceful.

- Great breakfast, changed everyday diff pancakes etc - lovely staff - Big lockers

- Quite a few power cuts - no soap provided - could do with some hooks by the bed to hang stuff up

Very clean, great location, super friendly and helpful staff, nice breakfast included in the price!

Situato in centro a me Ella, perfetto e molto accogliente Personale super disponibile

In posizione strategica,super pulito con personale davvero ma davvero gentile Sarebbe stato davvero un peccato non soggiornarci Super super consigliato!!!

Gezellig hostel, maar niet zoveel mensen als op de foto's hoor.

Het was allemaal een beetje aftans en voelde niet mega hygiënisch.

super für alleinreisende, sehr sozial, schöner gemeinschaftsbereich, tolles und sogar tägliches wechselndes frühstück; shared taxi nach arugam bay organisiert zum fairen preis – wäre am liebsten noch länger geblieben

Perfect location! Staff was nice and very social hostel.

The sink was in the dorm so it was a bit loud when people were getting ready for bed.

Bett mit Vorhängen Steckdose und Licht, warmes Wasser, relativ sauber, gutes Frühstück, nettes Personal, gefiltertes Wasser zum auffüllen, nette Terrasse, super Lage, gemeinsame WhatsApp Gruppe, Scooter zu miete, Supermarkt direkt gegenüber

Keine handtücher, nicht ganz so billig

Location is near to Railway station, City center, Nine Arch bridge, Little Adam's peak and Ella rock. Staff is good, they even kept me my breakfast when I returned late from Ella rock. Clean room and washrooms.

The sink in the female dormitory should be placed inside as it will disturb others if someone wakes up early.

Very spacious room, bathrooms got cleaned every day. Really good breakfast and super friendly and helpful staff! Thanks for the nice time in Ella ☀️

Big lockers for your whole backpack!

The Organisation. Everything was a little chaotic, but at the end everything worked out..

The hostel where you must stay in Ella. Perfect localisation, staff really nice. The hostel is in the center, you can do all by foot. The lockers in the rooms are very practical and large. Curtains on the bed 👍🏻👍🏻. Private bathroom for the room, very functional and clean.

Rien

Very social hostel and nice location! Beds are also nice.
