Ella Ridge View Holiday Inn

Rooms dirty - not reception or room service. On top of that forgot my sun glasses in the property. Realize when I was 20 min away by car and called them. They told me not to worry and that they would send the glasses by cuorier to my next destination- nice people I tought. Later on simply delayed the shipment to keep the sun glasses.

The views are incredible. The staff are very helpful, they arranged a tuk tuk for us from the station and brought us breakfast each morning at a time of our choosing. It was great.

There are several inaccuracies with the listing. There is no reception. There is no lift. There is no cafe There are steps leading up to the rooms. And it goes on. This is a humble homestay. Not a guesthouse / hotel. It is also not registered with the Tourism Board as all properties accepting paying guests are required to do. The property was quite difficult to find, the signage was quite obscure. I found the room musty on arrival and had to leave doors open for a while to air it. The toilet decor was weird and I couldn’t make out if the toilet was clean or not. The bed sheets did not feel clean. I was woken up around midnight by a very strange noise. I could not make out what it was. Breakfast was super. It did not meet my expectations unfortunately. The owners were very nice and did all they could to please

This is a homestay and not a hotel / motel / guest house. There is no reception. No restaurant. No gym. No lift. Does have stairs to climb. The property is hard to find. The room was smelly / musty on arrival. I needed to keep doors open for a while to air the room. The bathroom did not feel clean. Neither did the bed sheets. A strange noise woke me up around midnight. Breakfast was fresh and one of the nicest I have had. The owners were very obliging and keen to please. However, unfortunately did not meet expectations.

Loved my stay here! The mountain view from the rooms is spectacular. It was a little hard to find at first, since it's down a narrow mountain road, but once you find it, it's easy to walk into town and get around. I walked to the nine arch bridge in like 25 minutes from the hotel. The staff was also extremely nice and helpful. I needed a bandaid at one point and they got me a couple and helped me out. Breakfast was varied and delicious. :) Hope I can come back someday!

I give this 5 stars based on the view alone, but the breakfast was incredible brought to out door every morning and bed and towels were clean and comfy. I highly recommend this property you will not be disappoint, except the view does make you want to do nothing but sit and enjoy it😊

Booked for the view and tranquillity, did not disappointment. Family run guest house which I always prefer to support. The climate was perfect, zero humidity, a welcome relief from Colombo. An easy picturesque walk into Ella town, as well as Little Adams Peak. Staff very nice and friendly. Delicious Sri Lankan breakfast. Best yet coconut roti. Excellent value for money. Thank you Ella Ridge.

Lacintha the owner was very friendly, he followed up on our check in, he was very helpful and nice. He provided breakfast on time the next morning. The location is very close from the center and restaurant. It’s very close also from little Adam’s peak hike. Recommend this place to stay and relax with an amazing view

The host is super nice and organized everything we asked for perfectly. Also the service and breakfast was amazing. If we come back one day, we definitely will stay there again!
