Hotels with Hot tubs in Ella

The scenery and location are truly outstanding. A view from every corner of the resort. Lovely staff and sublimely peaceful.

I can't rave enough about how wonderful our experience at Ella was, thanks to the generous and impeccable hospitality of Indika, Thanaka and their little girl. From the moment Indi picked us up from the station, we knew we were in for a treat - and as soon as we walked through the door of the beautiful room they've created for guests, we cancelled our next booking and added two extra nights to our stay. Their place is only five minutes walk to the centre of everything in Ella town, and also an easy walk to Nine Arches Bridge and the Little Adam's Peak trailhead. The room is one of the most beautiful places I've ever stayed - not just in Sri Lanka - but anywhere in the world. We were genuinely welcomed like family - even being invited into their home to celebrate Indi's birthday with his extended family. And adorably, they knew it was my birthday the next day, and gave me a mug that they'd had printed with photos from our stay there. Indi was always happy to drive us wherever we wanted to go - including Diyaluma Falls, tea plantations, and the Mahamevnawa Buddhist Monastery - even on his birthday. We started every day with a delicious Sri Lankan breakfast which filled us up for the whole day, and their suggestion for dinner on the first night - C Ella restaurant - was our favourite evening meal in Ella. When it was time for us to leave, Indi found us a driver to take us to Tangalle (our next stay) including a 6 hour morning private safari in Yala along the way, all for a very reasonable rate. He'd also ensured we had a filling Sri lankan breakfast waiting for us in the Jeep. If you're lucky enough to find a date that Symbol is available, lock it in. You will have a truly memorable stay.

The chef was very accommodating for special requests at breakfast. Also the yoga class was excellent and the studio itself was beautifully set in the jungle with all of the sounds of the birds and the waterfall making for a very special experience! :-)

It was a perfect stay for one night away for me and my wife. The staff was very friendly, the room was very clean and big space, very comfortable beds. Breathtaking view from my room. If I didn't have a busy schedule I'd stay for a few days. Perfect place for a peaceful stay.

I had a wonderful stay at this homestay in Ella. It’s located outside the busy tourist and restaurant area, in a peaceful setting where you can truly relax. At the same time, if you enjoy walking, the town is still within reach. The best part? The iconic Nine Arches Bridge is just a few steps away, and you can even see it from the property! The room was spotless, the bed was very comfortable, and I had warm water for showers. Fresh towels were also provided, which was a nice touch. The owners are incredibly kind and welcoming, always making sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed. They genuinely care about their guests, creating a warm and friendly atmosphere. The breakfast was another highlight—huge portions, delicious local flavors, and the freshest sweet fruits, all enjoyed with a stunning view. A lovely touch was the free pick-up from the train station on arrival and a drop-off at the bus station when I left. The owners also arranged a fair-priced transfer to a monastery and waterfalls, making my stay even more enjoyable. They also showed me around their tea plantation and prepare a delicious fair priced dinner for me upon mu arrival. Overall, I highly recommend this homestay. It offers a perfect balance of tranquility and accessibility, with wonderful hosts who make you feel at home. A great place to experience the local way of life in Ella!

Large clean comfortable space and large clean bathroom, with so many homey touches. The pictures are accurate. The view is amazing and so is the host. Great water pressure and hot! Peaceful, quiet, and private. There is a towel rack, lockable wardrobe cabinet and lockable drawers. Tv - never used. Nice pillows. Comfortable bed. Mosquito net - never needed. I sat out every night and had no issues with mosquitos. Fan - never used. Excellent WiFi. Host is always fast and easily reachable. Private porch and gardens are away from the hosts view. You have your own building. Host building is far enough away and they don’t have a view of the porch or inside. BEAUTIFUL, huge floor to ceiling window. Meals served on fine china with breath taking views. So relaxing. Fresh clean air!!! The mornings are warm and sunny, and the nights cool off for enjoyable evenings and sleeping. All around amazing stay and experience. I am so blessed to have had the chance to stay here. You can tell the host takes great pride in the way she keeps the cottage. Delicious breakfast (included in price) and dinner at very reasonable prices, much better than in town. It was nice to come back after a day of exploring and have a delicious meal prepared. She even did my laundry. Got it back same day washed/dried and ironed. Kindness most peaceful and gentle host with the warmest most welcoming smile. She spoils you and showers you with such gratitude!!! So welcoming and refreshing! She will even go into town for you, and get anything you need - just ask. Accommodating in every way. Too many good things to even list it all. I didn’t want to leave. After booking one night, I had to come back and stay 3 more nights for a total of 4. It’s just that relaxing. Host also graciously accommodated my last minute booking. I was in town and booked at 5:15 pm, and drove right over. The place was clean and ready. Blessings with gratitude. 🙏

Highly recommend staying here. Relaxing and peaceful sitting on the balcony looking out over the valley. It is located outside of Ella township but getting there is easy and all part of the adventure!

I loved the welcome tea experience where they served delicious fragrant herbal tea in a little hut with freshly cooked snacks. The tea leaves/flowers were handpicked in the jungle by the cook

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Hide Ella during my visit to Ella. From the moment I stepped into the lobby, I was impressed by the warm and welcoming atmosphere that enveloped the entire hotel. The staff at Hide Ella truly went above and beyond to make my stay enjoyable. Their attention to detail and commitment to customer service were evident in every interaction. The check-in process was seamless, and the front desk staff were both friendly and informative, providing me with all the necessary details about the hotel amenities and local attractions. The room I stayed in was not only impeccably clean but also tastefully decorated, creating a comfortable and inviting ambiance. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep, and the amenities provided were thoughtful and of high quality. I particularly appreciated the attention to eco-friendly practices, such as the option to reuse towels to reduce environmental impact. One highlight of my stay was the exquisite dining experience at Sky Bar's restaurant. The menu featured a diverse selection of dishes, each prepared with precision and using fresh, locally sourced ingredients. The culinary team clearly takes pride in their craft, and it showed in the delicious flavors and artistic presentation of each dish. The hotel's central location made it convenient for exploring Ella's landmarks and attractions. Whether I was strolling through the nearby parks or discovering local shops and cafes, everything was easily accessible from the hotel. In conclusion, my experience at Hide Ella exceeded my expectations in every way. The combination of exceptional service, comfortable accommodations, and convenient location make it a top choice for anyone visiting Ella . I would wholeheartedly recommend Hide Ella Hotel & Resort to fellow travelers and look forward to returning on my next visit to the area.

So much to like, staff, location, views, great comfy room..wish I stayed longer. The only slight thing I thought the breakfast could have been slightly better and breakfast area a little cleaner. But minor things for a great place. Highly recommend!!!
