Serene environment, top quality service from the lovely owner, the room was immaculate with everything we needed and very picturesque. The host even provided us with tea, water and laundry service. Possibly the best place we’ve stayed in Sri Lanka, and do not be put off by the negative reviews regarding the driveway, it is easy via Tuktuk and worth it for the views and privacy. Their tuktuk shuttle is free and available 24/7 - thank you again for a wonderful stay ❤️ the best place to eat is Ella Siyapatha Hut Restaurant. This was the most authentic meal we had that was cooked by the gorgeous family. Truly an amazing experience if you’re in Zella

Very nice view from the balcony, perfect for breakfast. The place is not in the center of Ella which means it is very calm and you can observe some animals. The staff is super nice and drove us several times with their Tuk Tuk to Ella and back at any desired time. I can only recommend.

Gayan and his two brothers were the most gracious and fabulous hosts, and they run a very clean and comfortable hotel in the hills. Gayan very safely drove us around on a half day tour and picked us up from town after dinner on his trusty tuktuk. Room was clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Delicious large homecooked meals by the host's mother. They are doing up the upper levels of the hotel for more rooms and an even better view!

we were flabbergasted by the view at ella gap from the rooftop. crew was amazingly helpful. they drove our tuktuk up to the guesthouse because we didn’t dare to drive the steep hill. hilltop is away from the busy and loud mainstreet. superquiet allthough 5 minutes from the centre. our host gave us the perfect advice to get around.

Really great location just up from the high street in quiet area. Pleasant terrace outside room with place to relax. Good hot shower with good pressure. Large bed and friendly host who offered lots of travel advice. No aircon in room, but air cooler in room was sufficient

nice host surely there would be a charming view, unfortunately there was heavy fog during our stay you could hear music and parties in the city center but it was quiet in the hotel :))
