The guest house provides mountain views, a sun terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. It was extremely convenient as far as location. Everything is a short walk along the train tracks. The view is amazing and seeing the train pass through the valley is surreal. The best part of the experience was the staff. It is family run, and they were extremely accommodating.

Namara Green Ella

Ella

Situated within 4.1 km of Demodara Nine Arch Bridge and 48 km of Hakgala Botanical Garden, Namara Green Ella features rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Ella. The property has garden views and is 1.3 km from Ella Railway Station and 2 km from Ella Spice Garden. The property offers soundproof units and is set 49 km from Horton Plains National Park. We loved the convenient location of this hotel, nestled just minutes from the center of Ella and a quick 10-minute tuk-tuk ride to the iconic Nine Arches Bridge. The staff were friendly and welcoming, with good English skills that made communication easy. Our room was impressively spacious and spotlessly clean, offering a comfortable retreat after exploring. The bathroom was nice with a pleasant shower, though the water pressure could have been a bit stronger.

Each unit is fitted with a private bathroom, while some rooms have a fully equipped kitchen with a toaster. At the homestay, units include bed linen and towels. We stayed for two nights and really enjoyed the place. It was an incredible experience! We loved everything about the place. The view from the room was just incredible.. You can see beautiful clear sky during the night full of stars - so magical! Big balcony overlooking mountains. The sound of nature was so calming. The room itself was really clean, tidy, cozy and truly felt like home. Very spacious bathroom. Loved the decor. Breakfast was delicious with the view of the mountains. Perfect location - 10 min walk to the main street or 5 min by tuk tuk. Would recommend this place, it was the best stay from all of the places we’ve been in Sri Lanka.

Secret View Homestay Ella 4 stars

Ella

Located in Ella, Secret View Homestay Ella offers 4-star accommodation with private balconies. This homestay provides free private parking, free shuttle service and free WiFi. The homestay features mountain views, a sun terrace and a 24-hour front desk. Secret View is one of the best home stay experiences we had in Sri Lanka. Breathtaking views. Perched above the train tracks looking across at Ella’s Rock, Little Adam’s Peak and a waterfall. Sit on the swing and watch sunrise or the misty clouds passing. You have two viewpoints of the iconic train going by as well. It’s magic! The space is a perfect base for exploring Ella + surrounding areas. Private balcony. Well equipped room: plenty of space and comfy seating. Extra blankets. Bed was comfy. Fan, hairdryer and TV should you need it. A fridge with cheap drinks if you’d like to buy. What makes this place most special is Namal and his family. They were the kindest, caring and helpful people. The epitome of Sri Lankan warmth. They welcomed us with open, warm hearts. Great communication over WhatsApp. Helped us book a cooking class (Matey Hut - highly recommend). Made time to check in with us for advice and local tips. Delicious breakfasts. Tuktuk lifts to/from the town which they wouldn’t take payment for. They went above and beyond to make sure I was ok when I felt unwell. I can’t say enough good things about Secret View and Namal + his family. Experiences like these are memories for a lifetime 💕
