Reviews of The Tea View Guest Ella

Its location was good and it was silent. The owner of the hotel was very kind and helpful. He packed our breakfast because we would leave too early. Thanks to him.

The bathroom was not too clean.

We had an amazing stay in the tea view guest Ella!!! Great location only a short walk from the train station but close enough to town we could go for a mooch and access nine arch bridges and little Adam’s peak easily! Super secluded location with a gorgeous view from the shared balcony. The hosts were so so lovely and we had a fresh breakfast every morning. Very good for people traveling with friends!! Don’t be out off by what you see when you arrive, they are having some construction done on the top floor but it did not affect our stay at all/we didn’t hear any disruptions. Loved our stay here, highly recommend!

Very near to railway station, friendly staff

We only stayed one night at this place but we really enjoyed it. Location was perfect for us. The room was clean and comfortable. The hosts were very friendly and breakfast was delicious. Recommend this stay!

We had a lovely view of the mountains from the balcony. Our room was clean and comfortable. The host was very kind and accommodating. He let us borrow an umbrella when it was raining and let us keep our luggage there after we checked out.

The water in the shower wasn’t that warm and hand soap in the bathroom would have been nice but other than that we have no complaints.

The place is very close to the train station, very nice view of the tea plantation from the terrace, it was very nice to have breakfast there in the morning. The owner don't speak much English but they very nice. Also on arrival they offered tea and biscuits which was nice fron them.

The room and especially the toilet it's not very clean, I've been to other places in Sri Lanka on the same price range and they were more clean than this. Also there is a bit of smell for mould in the room. They accept only cash and when I made the payment the amount was a bit more than the price in usd show on booking.com

excellent beakfast

The place is good for stay.

Nothing.

The staff was very nice, not very good at english but they tried their best :) It was a little bit more out of the center but only a 10 minute walk and very close to the train station.

We stayed for two nights in two rooms. The location is a bit of a walk from the centre, but it was fine for us. It’s in a quiet area, and the views were lovely—overlooking the trees and tea plantation. We had breakfast there, which was okay. It included fruits, rotties, eggs, bread, butter, jam, and tea/coffee, all served right in front of our rooms on the terrace. The hot shower in the bathroom was amazing—one of the best we've had during our stay.

It wasn’t the cleanest place we stayed in Sri Lanka and felt a bit dated. We perhaps expected a bit more in terms of room quality. The rooms didn’t feel particularly clean, but we did book them last minute, just a few minutes before our arrival in the evening.

The room was clean and had a private bath/toilet room. Plus there was a spacious balcony with a great view. We also really enjoyed the breakfast that came with the room. The hotel was also very close to the train station, so it was very convenient.

We enjoyed everything and do not have any recommendations to change or improve the experience. It can be a little loud on the balcony since it is over a main road area.

The view was very nice- we could see tea estates from the shared balcony. The breakfast was also very delicious. The location was great- almost at the city center. It is recommended to not walk from the train station if you luggage- it can be quite far/tiring with the heights. The owner helped us get a Tuktuk to get to the bus stop on the day of the departure.

The lighting in the room was not that great. You need to go a bit further down the road to get Tuktuks. It is in the city center but a bit far away from the attractions like Nine Arches Bridge and Ella View Points. They took only cash LKR and the cost was a bit more than the initial USD calculation.

Great location Good breakfast Great owners Great views

Could have better light to approach at night

Breakfast overlooking tea plantation.

The blanket provided was not adequate. No soap or toilet paper provided. Not recommended for light sleepers due to the noisy road. Transparent blinds aren’t great either.

nice view
