Ella review
The guy in the reception was really friendly, the breakfast was great and also the room, but the manager was rude and questioned are booking and wanted to change us to a smaller room and charge us extra for breakfast when it was actually included.

Good location, felt empty though
The location was great for your Ella staple visits - near town, on route to Little Adams Peak and 9 Arches Bridge. Only unfortunate thing was that the hotel felt empty, which isn’t great as a solo traveler. WiFi didn’t work though, and staff wasn’t around much for help - when I asked about the WiFi they insisted it was an issue with me (I had three devices...same issues) aka not their fault. Eventually the owner came out and was a little rude. I left a day earlier than planned.

Great area, okay hotel
Our room awkwardly located and so very noisy. Rooms were okay standard, bed not the greatest.
Ideal location and very helpful staff. The breakfast was nice and enjoyed roof top views. Would stay again, but different room.

Great location
Easy to get to Main Street, the station as well as the walk for 7 arch bridge. Calmer location. Staff were so helpful and we were given a local map of the area. Wonderful generous breakfasts which included coconut pancakes.
I lioved this place.

Mediocre hotel, good location.
Hotel is in a great location, easy walk to most of the tourist attractions and town centre. The room was very tired and used. The bed was extremely hard and uncomfortable. There was only one powerpoint in the room and that was used by the refrigerator. Breakfast was very basic. Overall the stay was very average.

Friendly management, disappointing room.
A bit disappointing. Id been saying in other places around the same price range, but the quality of the room wasnt really up to scratch. No bedside tables, the door to the bathroom wouldnt close properly, ants everywhere in the bathroom, the shower head set lower than my head, and a few other minor issues. However, the management was extremely hospitable. Very kind and helpful. Good breakfast.

Unfortunate circumstances; trying to be fair.
First the positive. Location is very good. Breakfasts were good. Room seemed decent, though nothing special. Owner very helpful with directions to area sites of interest. Unfortunately, the hotel had no electricity the entire time I was there (2 nights), so no hot water, no lights, and no WiFi. While I know this was beyond the control of the owner, I still feel like I didn’t get what I paid for (and there was no adjustment in price made or offered).

Many ants in the room and all the staff had was citronella, which did nothing.
Don't eat the breakfast here. The food isn't good and is extremely expensive compared to much better meals on the main strip.

Great place in a great town!
The power was out for most of our stay due to a hurricane. This was a bit frustrating, however, Sonny, the hotel manager did everything he could to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The moment we arrived he pulled out a map and walked us through the town and its surroundings telling us everything we could do in Ella. Sonny is a very interesting and worldly fellow. He has lived all over the world and speaks English and French fluently. The room was comfortable with mosquito net and fan, and when the power came back on, the wifi worked well. We would recommend this hotel and stay again!

Horrible place with an arrogant n obnoxious owner
Lost faith in expedia for even having this hellhole listed. Mr owner is a downright arrogant man who feels a floor mat is a bath towel. Nothing of this place is even half good. Avoid it.

This was a budget hotel so it was good value for money. The facilities are basic but the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The room has a big double bed and a surpringly good shower. In addition, the location was ideal only a 5 minute walk down hill from the station. The breakfast was also very nice and only 500 rupees.

Grand Peak Ella
Enjoyable stay and good value for money. We had a family room. It was basic but clean. Well positioned; close to town centre and the walk to Little Adams Peak. Breakfast was good, with plenty to eat. The owners are absolutely lovely and very helpful. They speak fluent English and French. They gave us directions to the Ravanna Falls and even helped us find accommodation in Nuwara Eliya.

The single room I occupied was very small with the bed taking up most of the room. It was next to the proprietor's unit and I could hear everything that went on in the unit. Thankfully the noise abated after 10 pm. WiFi was bad but this could be due to storms.
Proprietor was pretty helpful in answering my questions.

Friendly and Quiet
This was the only hotel in Sri Lanka where I could get wifi in my room and I wasn't even that close to reception. Very friendly service, the owner is all smiles. Comfortable bed with mosquito netting. Ella is small so it's easy to walk from the hotel to the main street. It's probably about a fifteen minute walk to the train station but tuk-tuks are everywhere. Nice and quiet. A good stay.
