Quite a climb from the city. Just 200m though, so still much better than a lot of places in Ella

Beautiful view and very well kept property. Thuwan was amazing and took very good care of me. Has a good knowledge of the area and guides very well

The place i above a wirling road, and thai bring quite some noise, espesially in the early morning.

Really nice place, with glass walls and beauriful views, and with a balcony.

Getting to the actual room was slightly tricky with heavy luggage, BUT we had help from Thusian who kindly took the suitcases down for us. Therefore did not end up being a problem for us. The view from the room made it all worth it.

The staff were so kind and helpful with arranging tuktuk and luggage. We loved waking up to the views- absolutely amazing. Very clean, even though that it is amongst the trees but absolutely spotless. They provided tea and water too.

The access to the property is a bit tricky, especially with heavy luggage, but the helpful staff makes up for it by offering assistance.

The room was spacious and spotlessly clean, with a fridge and a balcony offering a beautiful view. The staff was incredibly friendly and always ready to help, making the stay very pleasant.

The shared kitchen was kind of a makeshift set up. The sink was not clean, and the sponges there to wash dishes were old and used to death... I can only imagine the amount of germs on that.

The room was clean. The view was breathtaking. The staff was helpful and friendly.

No complaints really. The shower didn't have much hot water but this is common for Sri Lanka.

Incredible views from the balcony, making the room a lovely place to relax. Rooms were very spacious and clean with a big bathroom. The staff were very helpful and had lots of tips and advice re local attractions and transport. Brilliant place to stay in Ella on a budget. Lots of steps down to the room and on a very steep hill but perfectly fine if you are fit. Fridge in the room is a bonus.

Excellent location.. Very clean and comfortable with a great bathroom. The views are spectacular and our host was very helpful and assisted with our early wake up to get to the train station. In walking distance to the main street but away from the noise and busy tourist area. Great choice!

The room was slightly damp but that was due to it being in the mountains

The view was amazing and the staff are very friendly and helpful

The view was absolutely surreal—lush green valleys stretched out below, and a cascading waterfall tumbled down the cliffs in the distance. Waking up to the sound of rushing water and birdsong felt like a dream. That said, reaching the stay wasn’t the easiest. There are quite a few steep steps involved to reach the stay and also need to go through some under construction building, so it might not be ideal for anyone with mobility issues. Also, while the room was comfortable, a little upgrade to the interiors could really elevate the overall feel of the space. Still, the stunning views and serene atmosphere more than made up for it. If you’re looking for a place where nature wraps around you and time seems to slow down, this is it.

Lots of steps (as described in property description). Owner was very helpful carrying suitcases etc to help with this.

Amazing views from all 3 rooms we booked. Very helpful and friendly host who helped us boo train tickets and taxis. Amazing breakfast at a very reasonable price (the best breakfast we’d had in Sri Lanka). Short walk into Ella town-great location walking distance to restaurants.

A bit noisy but not annoying.

I booked the room after a not that good experience I had with another booking in Ella. The room was spacious and comfortable. The bathroom was clean. The view from the room is breathtaking. The staff was very kind and helpful and they arranged a transfer to the next destination for a fair price. Very close to the main road and all the shops.

The stairs... haha To get to the hotel, its a very steep street up and down. Then entering by stairs and even more stairs on the sight to get to our room. We are young healthy people and didnt expect it to bother us, but going back and forth to our room took a while.

We had an amazing stay at viewfront. It was one of our cheapest hotels at our trip in sri lanka, so we didnt expect a lot, but it was very good. The room was big, the view amazing, there was a fridge and a mosquito net. On sunny days the warm water was working too. Friendly people, helped us with our bags at the stairs and helped us rent a scooter. Loved the location too. The main street of Ella is very busy and touristic. The was a bit from the mainstreet (only 5 min walk though!) With some very nice restaurants around the corner (much better than at the mainstreet).

Because of the geography of the town, a lot of hotels are going to be up a steep road. However, at this one, after walking up the steep slope, you then walk down a shorter and steeper slope, then down many steps to get to your room, so you may not be as high up as some other hotels. I was in one of the lower rooms, which is 105 steps down from the road. It wasn't a big issue for me, but if you have fitness issues it's worth bearing in mind. But then Ella is probably not the best destination for you anyway! The main road was right below my room (see photo), and the trucks can be loud at night.

The room was comfortable, nice views of the valley and surrounding hills. The path down to my room is forest. I saw grey hornbills and even a porcupine!

The walk up the hill to then climb down the stairs was hard work, not to mention the building site we had to go through to get to the room. First impressions made us uneasy. Aside from that a lovely place.

Very close to town. The property was very easy to find and a short walk to the main parts. The room was very spacious and the view was exceptional.

The best view. Highly recommended for staying. Helpful stuff, free kitchen for using.

The room is really clean and spacious, and there is a parking slot. The parking slot is dedicated to the hotel and is secure, so you can park bikes, cars, or any vehicle there. However, to get from the parking area to the rooms, you have to climb a lot of steps and stairs. That said, if you’re coming to Ella for a hiking experience, this can feel like a little sneak peek of what’s to come. We actually came to enjoy that kind of experience, so we really appreciated the stairs and everything. However, if you have difficulty climbing stairs or are uncomfortable with steps, you might want to think about this before booking. But if you’re into that kind of adventure, you’ll absolutely love this place! The room also offers an amazing view. It’s spacious, and there’s a glass wall that lets you enjoy the breathtaking scenery even from inside. You can see an incredible view of Ella Rock, the winding roads of Ella, and so much more. It’s truly beautiful and an amazing place to stay!
