    Location was great. It’s a 30-40 minute walk to town along the railway tracks, but it’s so nice being out in nature. The staff were lovely, and there was everything you needed in the area. Food at the hostel, and many restaurants and cafes along...

    Loved my stay here. A little bit of a walk from Ella along the train tracks, but the peace and views make up for it. The staff are so kind, the lunch/dinner is exceptional, and the dorm I was in was clean and spacious with lockers, hot water, and...

    Disclaimer; the hostel is placed in the hillside, so when arriving with backpacks from Ella you’ll need a tuktuk (If you’re arriving by train however it’s pretty easy and short walk from the station before). It’s 30 minutes to walk down to Ella,...

    This is a very spacious hostel tucked away from the main town of Ella. The rooms are big and comfy and there are a few common areas that makes it possible to spread out if you want to be by yourself, or gather round together for a fun evening or...

    The breakfast, the location (being so close to Ella Rock and the train track walk) and the kind and caring staff. Ella Escapades was a home away from home, a serene escape tucked amongst lush greenery. I adored my stay here and have been...
