    The rooms in Blooming rose require a little bit of a trek from the train station (uphill, approx 30 minutes). Once there, the hosts help to arrange transport to and from Ella. The breakfast is sumptuous spread of fruits, local pancakes, and eggs. The view from the balcony is hard to beat with Ella rock up ahead and little adam's peak off to the left.

    Blooming Rose is an ideal place to stay. It cannot be overstated how lovely the view out of the balcony is. Photos don't do it justice Sitting for breakfast, or out with a book, it looks like a setting from a film. Secondly, the staff were fantastically charming. Displaying the best of the understated Sri Lankan hospitality, everything was at our convenience. We were happily taken in a Tuk Tuk to our tours of Ella, and our washing was sorted hassle free. Ella is very walkable provided you have the fitness and mobility. A walk down the steps and along the railway track into the town takes about 15 minutes.

    Incredible view

    The walk to town but you can't get the view without the walk so it's worth it.

    Everything!! The family who run Blooming Rose are so friendly, caring and welcoming and nothing was too much. The room was fantastic, very clean and modern and came with a fridge and microwave along with all other necessities. The view was absolutely outstanding. We have been lucky enough to travel to many countries and this was by far the best view iv ever had from a hotel room.

    We liked everything but must mention that there are a number of stairs down to the property and there is building work currently going on. The building work in no way impacted our stay as they worked at very reasonable hours and finished long before bed time.

    Blooming Rose Ella was the perfect choice for our stay!Breakfasts were absolutely delicious and always fresh, the host was incredibly kind, always ready to help, and even drove us wherever we needed to go. The room was fully equipped – fridge, hairdryer, and everything you might need during your stay. The view from the terrace is simply breathtaking, overlooking the stunning landscape. The accommodation was clean and tidy. There are steps leading to the property and the access is a bit challenging, but the friendly hosts help with the luggage, so it wasn’t a problem at all. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Ella!

    We stayed just one night at Blooming Rose Ella, but it was truly special. The location is stunning, surrounded by lush views, and the staff were incredibly warm and welcoming. Perfect for couples or anyone looking for a peaceful getaway. We only wish we had stayed longer!

    The view is absolutely incredible. The beds are so comfy and the host went out of his way to help us with our luggage and drove us out early in the morning to do a hike. Breakfast was also sublime

    Shower pressure not great but fine for a quick post-hike wash!

    The views from the property are nothing short of spectacular. The family were so welcoming, friendly & very helpful (Gunni dropped us to the start of Ella Rock walk in their Tuk Tuk). Breakfast each morning was delicious. Would happily stay again and recommend to others.

    water pressure wasn't great but understand they are looking into this. Not a negative, but there are a number of steps so if you have mobility issues then something to be aware of but anyone so worth it for the views & hospitality.

    The view from the property is divine and the family-run guesthouse works very hard for its guests. The breakfast is extremely good and the rooms are clean.Relaxed ambience and the owners were good at arranging tuk tuks into town.

    You will need a driver or tuk tuks to get to property and there are steps down so not for people with walking difficulties. It is not high end accommodation but good basic accommodation with kind family. Some building work adjacent to property.

    The view - just wow! And the staff were so kind - they were very welcoming, helped us with transport during our stay and breakfast was outstanding. Thank you for your kindness and making our brief stay in Ella so memorable.

    There were quite a few steps down to the hotel- absolutely manageable and fine but something to consider if mobility is an issue.

    Our host was an exemplar of excellent hospitality and customer service, making our stay incredibly pleasant.

    Just a minor thing was getting up quite some stairs due to an emergency repair to the main entrance. Before we went to this accomodation we recieved a message about the fact that we needed to enter in a different way. So even this minor thing, wasn't a problem at all :).
