"You must read-up on what to expect at the queen’s hotel. It may or may not be for you. It feels like stepping back in time. The place is a little shabby in places but if you want to have that feeling of living a bit of history it delivers. It’s an excellent location and the staff are all friendly and helpful. The pool offers a break from the noise of town and just generally- bring your ear plugs! We really enjoyed our stay."
"We had an amazing stay at the property, the view from my room was beautiful. The staff and everyone there were very friendly and welcoming.
We could see the famous nine arch bridge from the room as well as wake up to the beautiful mountains.
I would definitely recommend going there and enjoying the beautiful town of Ella. "
"The hotel is kept in great condition, the morning breakfast buffet has a good selection of western and Sri Lankan food. The rooms are spacious, the minibar is complementary, beds are comfy and you’re staying right next to the temple and a short walk from the lake."

"We stayed one night here. It was a nice upgrade from other hotels we have stayed in within Sri Lanka and for a lower price. Nice spacious bathroom, with all toiletries supplied. Nice views from the pool/restaurant area. Really enjoyed the breakfast (not included in price). Walking distance to Kandy lake. Only downside was the limited view which looked into an inside courtyard."
"Staff very friendly and lady Shehani came we us and explain completely room amenities and food was excellant I would strongly advice for Earl Regency"
"You get speculator views of all of Kandy from this luxurious hotel. Eeverything is clean, the food is a perfect mix of European and Sri Lankan. And the staff can’t be more helpful. "

"The room was clean and the facilities OK. Was glad I had bought my own toiletries and there were only 4 coathangers - not enough for two women! Asked for more but not available.
Buffet was good and the staff absolutely lovely. Would I stay here again? Yes"
"Staff are absolutely spot on, on the ball, very friendly. The hotel is very clean, rooms have amazing views over the valley. The rooms here were some of my nices on my trip to Sri Lanka. Naughty Monkeys pay a visit occasionally too! Its little put of town but going downhill, ypu can be in the centre of Kandy by walking in 10 mins. Coming back.... get a Tuk tuk! "
