Chill Ville is breathtaking! It is a little further out from the center of Ella, but absolutely worth it. The cobbled stone steps and stunning garden, walking up to our private Villa, are magical. The infinity pool is perfectly situated with stunning views. Food and service were great! We would love to spend a week at the magnificent Chill Ville!

Everything was perfect, we arrived it was raining the owner was expecting us with umbrellas and helped us down stairs , the room was big enough and comfy beds, the view from the room was amazingggg , the family owning the business is very welcoming and generous. Loved the place and everything. Considering it’s in the forest water pressure for shower was low that’s all.

The location is great, 5 minutes of walking from the busy main road which is just perfect. The hosts, Obey and his wife, are spectacular! My partner didn't feel well and they helped us with everything we needed and even more! The room is spacious and has everything you need, from shower amenities to a mini fridge and a kettle. The breakfasts were delicious! I recommend the Sri Lankan breakfast. Air conditioning worked very good as well. Overall I highly recommend it. Thank you Obey!

Very nice place to stay in Ella with the view of the waterfall just like it is shown in the photos. The place is conveniently located about a 10 minute walk into town along the railway line and closer than most places in Ella to the Ella Rock trailhead. The host is extremely helpful and kind. Definitely would return.

This place looks like a train station. But there is no sound in the rooms. Ella is not a big city, but it is very easy to get there by car as the hotels are usually located on top of the hill. And the view is very good, fresh air. Staff are very nice and professional, I really had a good night's sleep and relaxed after a long journey.

    Ella is a wonderful place to explore.

    Ella is a wonderful place to explore. It’s very clean and has breathtaking views everywhere. The people are kind, the local food is amazing, and it’s perfect for families, friends, or groups. With easy access to Nine Arches Bridge, Little Adam’s Peak, Ella Rock, and tea plantations, it’s an ideal base for a week of sightseeing and adventure.

    We loved the Mountain View’s.

    We loved the Mountain View’s. The Main Street is a little crowded and all of the walkways are uneven. Everything is on a hill and there is a lot of walking . Stairs do not have handrails. The sites to see in the city are not easily accessible without transportation. Tuk tuk rides are very bumpy. Most of the tourists in the city are young . As an older traveler over 70, I would not recommend this location to an older adult unless you are very healthy and have good stamina for walking, heat, and bumpy rides.

    Ella is in the mountains so there is a lot of walking and lots of stairs and climbing. We saw young back packers as the majority of visitors. It was hot and humid so drinking water was very important. The tea plantation tour was good and informative. The arches trip involved a harrowing drive up a narrow bumpy road. Waterfalls were always full of people. The town is great with lots of dining options and great shops!

    The amazing and perfect nature around Ella is getting over exploited. Too many buildings (hotels in particular) are under construction in the delicate hills of Ella, they should protect the environment as the place will loose its magic if it becomes just some kind of shopping mall / tourist centre. The hotels are already enough, no need for more.

    I had a wonderful stay at Hotel on the Rock. The highlight was definitely the stunning view from my top-floor room, overlooking the valley – absolutely breathtaking! The location is perfect, just a short 5-minute walk to the center of Ella, making it easy to explore. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made my stay even more enjoyable. The only downside was the breakfast, which was quite basic, but overall, the experience was fantastic. Highly recommended for the views and hospitality!

    You can not surpass the views from this property. It is ideally situated near the top of a hill that affords uninterrupted views of Ella gap. The service staff were all very friendly, helpful, and approachable, in particular Ranjith, in the restaurant. Breakfast is plentiful and varied. The rooms are spacious and clean. The bathroom is clean and utilitarian. It's a nice hotel but those views are the star attraction.

    hotel and restaurant are located smack in the center of town with a Bank of Ceylon atm (no transaction fees) downstairs. the room is cheap and cheerful and the balcony is a shared terrace with furniture overlooking the main street. Now the best bit, the attached restaurant is very good quality and our included breakfast was one of the best we had in sri lanka. Make sure you have one meal here if you are staying in Ella
