The room also had a damp smell. We booked for three people, but there was no mosquito net on one of the beds and only two teacups were provided. The soap dispenser was empty, there was no hot water throughout, no air conditioner and the electric circuit tripped numerous time during our one night stay. That said, the host was very polite and welcoming, and his dog was definitely the star of the show. ##### NILUSHINI Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Friedhelm 11 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Amazing view from each room.

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! ##### Sara Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### karen 5 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/BB004201E2FD873975590E2C1FEB93A518CF58C31738728017417.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/98D10690D75BB228013A5D7EA4EA9E0018A355FD1738728017757.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5EAB7F533D60C88189F984CEE5D9E5872E899E861738728018240.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### karen Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Kesini 13 Jan 2024 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 ##### Kesini ### 8/10 Good #### Kathryn 11 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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. ##### Kathryn Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 11 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### I’m glad I stay in Ella Ridge View It's fascinating to wake up in a room with the great mountains view and tasty Sri Lank breakfast. The owner also offers tuk-tuk ride in Ella. They have one-day package and one ride. The location is a bit far fr city center, it’s better because of quiet. Each tuk-tuk ride between hotel to city center is LRK 500. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4625b817-4656-4ec1-925f-a18c810baae1-1754871169568.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b1c0b723-f7f3-4dbe-8ab8-edf7fa1a6fda-1754871169321.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c83f0693-af5d-494b-a396-c20ca454fff9-1754871169098.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9d1a8748-ac3f-4d50-a9c8-087f941de0c4-1754871169773.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kerstin 7 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great guest house with fantastic view The host is super nice and organized everything we asked for perfectly.

He provided breakfast on time the next morning. The location is very close from the center and restaurant. It’s very close also from little Adam’s peak hike. Recommend this place to stay and relax with an amazing view ##### Rony Stayed 1 night in Jan 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Christopher 8 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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. ##### Christopher Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 11 Aug 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s151-p38cab9b0-9d29-11e8-b409-0242ac110007-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martina 21 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Ruhige Unterkunft mit super Aussicht Das Frühstück war super und der Koch sehr herzlich und hilfsbereit.
