Ella Rock Mystery Guest

Příjemný pobyt, ochotná paní domácí i ostatní personál, příjemné klidné místo.

La vue état magnifique

Je n’ai pas aimé l’accès qui est compliqué.. le manque d’information sur le fait qu’on doit payer cash à la fin et pas de monnaie si on a pas l’’appoint ..

Toller Blick und sehr nette Menschen.

Es war leider nicht sauber (sehr dreckige Bettwäsche) und das Bad müsste hergerichtet werden.

Отличный вид с балкона, что бы встречать рассвет с чашкой кофе с видом на горы!

Трудно найти дорогу к отелю без помощи местных жителей не разобраться.

Very nice and beautiful place.Cleanliness is good.

L’unica cosa che ci è piaciuta è stata la vista mozzafiato dalle stanze e la vicinanza ai 9 archi e a Little Adam’s

La stanza era sporca e puzzava di umido. La pulizia è scarsissima, con lenzuoli macchiati e pieni di polvere e insettini. Anche gli asciugamani non li abbiamo utilizzati per quanto fossero sporchi. Inoltre, - complice forse la posizione nel bel mezzo della natura, ma anche infissi e porte poco strutturati - c’erano blatte enormi.

De locatie en het uitzicht was fantastisch. Rustige plek aan de rand van ella, alles op loopafstand. Vanaf het balkon prachtig uitzicht. Bedden lagen goed en er was warm water.

De lakens, kussenslopen en handdoeken waren niet echt schoon (overal gele vlekken). Ook de kamer zelf was een beetje smoezig er zat veel schimmel op het balkon. De balkonrand zat los en miste een spijl. Voor kinderen erg gevaarlijk. Kortom het kan wel een opknapbeurt gebruiken. Let op je moet contant en gepast betalen, ze hebben geen wisselgeld.

Superb view of mountain and tea plantation. Starry night sky. Comfy bed. Walking distance to restaurants nearby.

The railing for shower need to be fix. Small issues that can be solved.

Very good. Room is small but ok. View is very beautiful

The ella mountain view from the balcony is amazing! Frendly staff and clean location.

Nothing.

I is located at a good location away from town very quiet & peaceful with amazing view of ella rock and ella gap during night as well as morning. And also place is close to the vicinity of flying ravana and little adams peak with much more activities to do. Worth the price and i will come back for more...

Nothing

The only perks of this place are location and the view from the balcony. 15mins to little Adam’s peak and roughly same to 9arches bridge

Terrible condition. Unfortunately doesn’t meet the description and the photos. Full of mold. That’s why it’s impossible to sleep in , was smelling terribly. The room itself is dirty and looks not presentable at all. I understand it is hard to make it perfect but at least maintain it in safe conditions where people actually sleep.

This stay was pure bliss — quiet, serene, and surrounded by nature. The view of Ella Rock from the room balcony was absolutely stunning. What made it even more special was the peaceful atmosphere; away from the crowds (only 2 rooms available). sleeping to the sound of a flowing stream from far felt like we were living at our own slice of paradise. Clean & comfy room equipped wt mini fridge & tv & hot shower. The host, Mr Kosala was warm and welcoming, always ready to help. If you're looking for a quiet getaway in Ella with unmatched breath taking view, this is the place. A hidden gem in Ella — I can't wait to return!Highly recommended!

There were bugs in the room & my wife got bitten twice by the bugs. The room was very small & crampy

- views from our balcony - calm setting - clean room - great breakfast provided at a nearby hotel.

It is some walk from the main road, not ideal if you carry big luggage but there is someone to help out. We only stayed for one night, we wish we could have stayed at least one more night.

The view is stunning. From the room have a clear view of Ella Rock

The room was very nice. Actually when I entered to the room first of all I checked the washroom. It was very comfortable,clean and beautiful

Nothing

Lovely location.The staff was also very friendly. View is awesome as well. Recommended

Super nice host, did good breakfast for 5 persons, everything in time(check in and check out), clean apartment, silence around, just noice from the waterfall haha. So we enjoyed our stay! Thank you!

+ the view is as on the pictures, big spacious room, nice warm water, perfect starting point for little Adam’s peak - the WiFi wasn’t working, the way to get there wasn’t anywhere explained as mentioned from others: bring a torch after sunset, some proper curtains would help to sleep longer than sunrise as they don’t block any sun :)

This hotel is a complete find! We were signposted to this hotel by our driver whilst in Sri Lanka and it had the most phenomenal views we have ever seen, completely breathtaking! The accommodation is basic, however immaculately clean and comfortable. This is the best resting stop after a day exploring Ella. Incredible value for money. Breakfast isn't included but their is a great cafe for breakfast at the entrance to the hotel track

The access to the hotel is very much a work in progress. You have to park at the entrance to the road to the hotel and walk down the track. The hotel owners are happy to bring their Tuk Tuk down to transport you and luggage. Please don't let this put you off as once you step into your room and see the view you won't regret your choice!

Let me start with one positive- the view from the room is good. Now here are my miseries, 1. TV which was part of the reservation never worked. 2. Geyser was broken they fixed it next day. 3. Non responsive staff and owner, repeated request they will respond when they feel like. 4. Access and track to the property is miserable - in disrepair, cracked, uneven, and rough-surfaced. 5. Walk in to the property via the broken road. 6. Owner cancelled my booking on his own without any intimation after I left. Extremely rude behaviour. 6. AVOID THIS HOTEL STAY AWAY FROM THIS PROPERTY !!!

Great view and strategic location for mountain lovers and hiking passionates.

The room and staff were amazing! I would HIGHLY recommend this hotel. It is close to a lot of cafés, Adam’s peak and nine arches! The view was the room was spectacular, will definitely book this room if I visit again! The room is spacious, bathroom is clean and staff is super helpful. The only thing I would recommend the hotel is to add arrow to guide the guests to the hotel. 10/10!

Beautiful accommodation on the outskirts of Ella. We had two rooms, both modestly furnished but very clean, and everything worked perfectly. The host was kind and brought us tea and drinking water every day. He also arranged an excellent breakfast for us at a nearby hotel. The accommodation is not accessible by car, but the walk is short, easy, and they will help you carry your luggage. It is very close to Little Adam’s Peak and the railway bridge. We reached both places within 20 minutes. However, the best part is the view from the balconies – it’s truly an unforgettable experience.

The view from the room is majestic! You can get a sunset view if its not covered by clouds. The room was located at the end of the small road, but rest assured you can request the staff to help you with the luggage. The owner also replied fast whenever we need help. And its near to the Little Adam’s peak, probably around 10-15mins to the entrance.

The room i booked was quite small to move around, but it was just a one night stay so its okay. If i am staying longer, i would book the larger room above.

Amazing loction to explore Ella in a quiet place but still close to everything. Amazing views!

The place was amazing and easy to find. If you’re coming from Ella town, a tuk-tuk ride costs only Rs. 500. Just come to Ella Flower Garden Resort and The Plate restaurant, and you’ll find it easily. The view is exactly as shown in the photos. We loved the spacious room with large windows overlooking the stunning scenery. The bathroom was great, and everything worked perfectly. The owner, Mr. Kosala, contacted us before our travel date and provided all the details about the property, directions, and nearby attractions. He was very kind, welcomed us warmly, and ensured we had everything we needed. Additionally, you can walk from the accommodation to Little Adam’s Peak and Ravana Pool Club.

We stay for 2 night and we really appreciate our stay there. The room was clean and big, staff very helpful and the most beautiful thing was the breathtaking view from our room

The view is really what they look like in the photos! Loved the spacious room and big windows looking at the view. The bathroom was great and everything worked. Also you can walk from the accommodation up to Little Adams Peak which is a bonus. Other people have commented on the walk to the accomodation being difficult (which is no issue for us) - the owner is currently building a road for better access so I would assume in about a month or so that will no longer be an issue.

The decor in the room is a bit strange and not well thought out, and there is some damp on the walls. But in all honesty with a view like that it doesn't matter.

we liked the hotel very much, the view is amazing, good place to see the stars in the night

meanwhile we have some suggestions that may help: 1)Put a sign on the crossroad, some people may not find the roght way; 2) The rack in the tolit room is broken, we can’t put towels there; 3) Maybe it’s better to put a socket near the bed, or it’s hard to charge our devices. 4) In the room many mosquitos, a electric mosquito repellent may be better than a refrigerator))

Although the room was very spacious, staff were very helpful, and the view is amazing

The hotel is situated down a poorly lit, un-paved road, on our first night walking home a man followed us down this road asking for money, it would likely not be suitable location for any solo female travellers. There was breakfast advertised to purchase, which was not once offered to us on any morning during our stay. The shower would not work. One of the attendents was very helpful, and replaced the plug for the shower. The following day my partner was having a shower in the electric shower, and it began to billow smoke, the plug even melted. We discussed this with the host who blamed the government and the local power plant. We discussed the dangers of fire and electricution due to the faulty plug in a shower, he denied that it was due to the faulty plug and was not able to provide accuracy on when it was last checked. Even with these dangers highlighted the host only offered to discount 3,000 rupees (10$) hardly a discount considering the risk that could have occurred. If this situation was handled better, it would have warranted a better review.

Amazing location and views. Close to the main town but just far enough to have a quiet space. It felt like you had the views of an expansive resort but for affordable prices. The room was clean and very spacious. Bed were comfortable.

The WiFi is a bit slow, and the water didn’t get very warm (which I don’t mind as it was warm enough for me) The pillows were too thick for me, as I always prefers thin pillows. There were heaps of soft blankets so slept on that and was perfectly fine!

The view is only epic, so breathtaking, even on overcast day. You feel like you're the only one there as it's a bit off the track but perfect location for Little Adams peak. 3 large beds in room were perfect for our family. Extra blankets for chilly evening. Some utensils if you need to cook/prepare food and nice large fridge.

Shower not warm, though staff were trying to fix it. Balcony felt a little wobbly (just maybe not recommend for young kids), and dark for walking back later in evening, bring torch.

The view from the balcony is amazing! Off the beaten track and nestled into the mountain side. Staff couldn't do enough for us!

The internet was slow.

Perfect serviss, very kind staff. Everything perfect.

We had a good stay in this charming Mystery Hotel, the rooms have an incredible view. You are five minutes from the start of the hike to the Little, Addams Peak, and 10/15 minutes walk from downtown Ella on foot, but possibility to have Tuk Tuk without problem. The setting is incredible, I recommend and the service also fantastic managers, attentive and available!! Thank you very much

The view is stunning. The location is great- close to Little Adam’s and 9 arches.

I thought breakfast was included but it wasn’t. This could have been clearer.

Calm & quite place & good veiw of ella rock Exelent place for couples. Clean place.

The amazing view and host is super friendly and helpful..

Nothing. Only walk 3 mins from car to room.

Incredible service. Lovely gang. Exactly as described. So helpful on WhatsApp organised transfers et al. Hard recommend, wonderful lot.

The view is stunning

difficult to reach

The scenery is truly stunning, and you can enjoy a beautiful view of the canyon right from the balcony. The room is equipped with a mini-fridge, a hairdryer, and even a blanket.

Although it's not far from the road to the room, you have to walk through a tea garden path, which can be a bit inconvenient at night. The bed does not come with a mosquito net, so small insects might enter the room at night.

The view from the balcony is amazing. You can see so much scenery plus we saw some monkeys in the daytime and fireflies each evening. It's situated down a gravelly path and is very quiet even though you are on the edge of the town. It's also walking distance to 9 arch bridge and Little Adams peak plus 5 minutes walk to Ravanna Pool club where you can hire a sun bed and use the swim up bar. Finally a word for the host and his staff - we could not have asked for any more, they brought our suitcases down from the road and any time we asked for water/beer/toilet roll is was delivered to our door within 5 minutes!

The room is quite simple and the curtains were light, not that it bothered me as I had brought my eye mask.

The view is beyond words. You wake up and immediately see the majestic mountains from your bed out of the big windows that the room has. The room also comes with a small veranda to sit on and the path to the hotel leads you through lush tea plantations. Kosala, the manager, is very helpful and tries to make your visit into a perfect stay. The guesthouse is situated only a few hundert meters off the path to little Adam's peak and the main road but you feel the serenity of the mountains which I greatly appreciated.

Nothing!

Recommend 100% and we are visiting next year as well. Wow! Amazing View from the room. Not sure if u can find a room with such a view around there for that price range. For the price range, It is worth so much more. Privacy was there. The location was great. The rooms were comfortable and we had everything we needed there. The owner was very helpful as well.

From the room there is breath taking view of ella rock and the mountains. room was very spacious and clean. It has every thing you need, a fridge, kettle, TV, hairdryer and even a iron. Owner was so helpful and polite.

The View was stunning, the bed so comfy

Nothing to complain about

I loved the beautiful location, friendly staff, and great value for money. The serene environment and excellent amenities made my stay memorable.

There was nothing I didn't like

I didn't like anything as when I called on the day of my arrival, the hotel told me my booking was cancelled. I didn't cancel my booking at all and it was extremely unprofessional of them to cancel the booking without informing. I had to find a different accommodation with very short notice. I booked this hotel months before my travel to Sri Lanka and they did not bother or was not kind enough to contact me and let me know they did a double booking. I was about to get into a train and with poor reception in Sri Lanka it was difficult for me to find a place with such short notice. The hotel offered me to help find alternative accommodation however I did not trust them as they let me down. I would not recommend this place.

Beautiful location with great customer service. This is a hidden gem in ella

Nothing

The location was perfect, close to good restaurants and cafes. Just the next door to Little Adams Peak and 20 min walk to Ella Bridge. We loved how peaceful place was and the view from balcony was amazing. Perfect to drink morning tea or coffee and relax before hiking.
