So good we stayed an extra night

We felt at home in Ella Ridge View, so much we stayed an extra night. The property is ideally situated to walk to the town centre (10min), Nine Arch Bridge (30min), Little Adam’s Peak (1hr) and Ella Rock (2hr), all places we would highly recommend visiting, especially Little Adam at sunrise. The family live in a house next to the accommodation and they made us feel so welcome. They helped us with trips, way finding and were very attentive to our needs at the accommodation. The view from the room was spectacular, we could see across the value to Ella Rock. While the room did not have AC it was not an issue because it was cool in the forest and the tan sufficed, the excellent fridge and comfortable bed helped too. The bathroom was clean and towels plush. There was a family of monkeys that live in the trees locally and we spent an afternoon watch them feed on the bananas near the balcony. It is just a shame I can’t upload the video here. I have uploaded photos of the best breakfast we have had in Sri Lanka. Sameera makes it all fresh and it is absolutely delicious. We had hoppers and roti, fruit and juices that were all fantastic. I would stay for the breakfast alone, it’s the reason we stayed another night. Thanks you Sameera and family for making our Ella stay so special.

Beautiful balcony view

Beautiful view from the balcony. Good large room. Great Sri Lankan breakfast but way too much for us to eat everything. A little hard to find as we arrived at night but the location is great once it's daylight. Owner very friendly & helpful.

Lasantha was a fantastic host

The location & hospitality by Lasantha was amazing. He cooked us authentic Sri Lankan breakfast every morning, organised Tuk Tuk's at affordable prices & suggested a local cave to visit. Always helpful, exceptional service & pristine mountain view location. I highly recommend the hotel

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
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

Stunning Mountain Oasis

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!

View plus plus

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.

The view is absolutely stunning, and the staff was super helpful and friendly in every way. There was a slight mixup re our booking (seems to be a common issue that hotels.com bookings aren't always respected in Sri Lanka), but the team handled it well, they arranged for us to stay one night at another even nicer place and drove us there.

Fantastic room, better check in service needed

Amazing room with absolutely stunning view. Beds were really comfortable. Unfortuntely we didnt get to try breakfast as upon check in they showed us rooms and then left us to our own devices. There was no mention of the wifi password or where we could find them if we needed anything. We did ask about breakfast and arranged for 7.15am, however the next day we couldnt find anyone around. We waited til 8am then gave up and went out.
