“Good value , nice location .”
+Good locations adjoining many eateries and night pop up street food . Nice pool and gym . Secure apartment with steel cage line front door.
−Was fine for me as a solo traveller. However the living area was pretty tiny for two of it were a couple .

“Beautiful hotel, stunning views and incredible staff!”
+This accommodation is amazing! The views are stunning, the breakfast is delicious and the staff are incredible. Our hosts went out of their way to ensure we were completely comfortable and relaxed every day. The location is an easy tuk tuk ride from the main town or a 20min walk, and the views from the hotel are absolutely worth it. This place is a must-stay for anyone visiting Ella.

“Perfect view!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
+THE VIEW!!!!!!!!!! Won-der-ful!!!!! Friendly staff, helpful. Facility for charging electric tuktuk.
−Second bed was outside the range of the fan, luckily no mosquitos, but because of the heat/humidity a bit less comfy

“Stunning view and wonderfully welcoming staff”
+The view is stunning and people are lovely. Though the amenities are basic it feels so relaxing like a retreat. I felt so peaceful and could have spent longer there talking to the staff, stroking their lovely dogs and looking at that view.
−Nothing it was perfect for money.

“A beautiful natural, restful place with unforgettable views. Thank you.”
+A beautiful property with stunning gardens and memorable views over Ella’s Gap. The owners were so friendly and welcoming and went out of their way for us. They took the time to show us the garden plants and give us details on the area. The breakfast was so good.

“View will take your breath away”
+Yep - yet another guest here banging on about that view. Haha. But in all honesty it can't be overstated. Best of the best. Beautiful gardens too. Location is great - we did the Ella Rock hike from the door in 3 hour, and reached all the main sights on foot easily. The walk from town isn't as challenging as some folk have suggested. You'll be welcomed here like old friends :)

+La vue est incroyable avec un balcon donnant directement sur les montagnes, je conseille le réveil matinal pour voir le lever de soleil. Le personnel est arrangeant et le petit déjeuner était très bon.

“Vielleicht beste Unterkunft in Ella 😊”
+Wir hatten das Ambiente Guesthouse wegen der fantastischen Aussicht und dem wunderschönen Garten gebucht und wurden nicht enttäuscht. Das wirklich außergewöhnliche an dieser Unterkunft war aber das Personal. Alle waren sehr freundlich und hlfsberbereich, aber Shanaka ist die Seele des Hauses. Er macht mit seiner unglaublich sympathischen Art das Guesthouse zu einem ganz besonderen Ort. Er hat es uns wirklich schwer gemacht weiterzureisen. Danke für eine unvergessliche Zeit! Toll fanden wir auch die Lage - Weg vom Trubel der Stadt, aber nicht zu weit. Zum Ella Rock konnten wir vom Hotel aus wandern. In der Straße sind auch Restaurants - für einen entspannten Abend empfehlen wir das Green Leaf. Gefreut haben wir uns auch über den Wasserkocher und Teebeutel auf dem Zimmer. Die Mehrfachsteckdose war sehr praktisch. Ach ja und das Frühstück - jeden Tag ein bisschen Abwechslung und immer sehr reichlich und lecker, mit Bananen aus eigenem Anbau.
−Überhaupt nichts 😊
