I wish I could rate it higher than 10. The place is located in a nice nature corner, overlooking hills covered with tea plantations. The owner absolutely goes out of his way to help you in every way imaginable. Food is great. Book right now, don't think twice!

All hostels in Ella

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.
