    The accommodation is in a very beautiful location, although it can only be reached by tuk tuk. The property provides an efficient free shuttle service from 8 am to 9 pm. Outside these hours, the service can be easily arranged with the property at a minimal cost.

    The view is superb! The staff are extremely friendly and kind. They are available for any need and do their best to make your experience as enjoyable as possible. The property is exceptionally clean and well maintained. Breakfast is excellent, both in portion size and quality.

    Beautiful accommodation and a friendly, helpful owner! We felt very comfortable. Very clean room, very comfortable bed, and a beautiful view! The ride to the hotel was an adventure in itself; it's amazing what tuktuk drivers can do. The free tuktuk service to and from the city center was so nice. The only thing that bothered us was some loud work/noise outside beginning around 7am in the morning. Depart from that it was really quiet, and all we could hear was just nature! We can recommend this hotel to everyone, we really enjoyed our stay :)

    A peaceful retreat outside of Ella with incredible views. Complimentary Tuk Tuk rides to and from the accommodation were brilliant and were very easy to organise. Good WiFi if you needed to work. Great breakfast over looking the hills in the morning with all the staff being incredibly kind and accommodating. Would definitely stay here again.

    The location was in a beautiful spot but could be hard to find at night due to being about 10minutes out of the main town. Although they did offer complimentary tuk tuk services, the roads in and out of Tea Hills were very steep.

    Incredible breakfast and staff, amazing view of the mountains and the room was equipped with everything that may have been needed.

    The location is quite far from Ella town centre, but the free tuktuk shuttle helps and the view makes up for it!

    This is a beautiful location, and I really liked the design of the hotel with all rooms looking out over the beautiful view. Breakfast on the balcony was an extra special treat, and I loved the cool breeze you get in the hills. Staff were also friendly and helpful.

    Everything was great.

    The view is amazing. The hotel is brand new and thr hosts are amazing. It is a bir far from the main road, but it means you have silence and can relax, plus the view is great being on top of the hills. The free shuttle to the town and from the town everytime you need it is amazing. The host even prepared take-away breakfast for us because we left very early in the morning. Would recommend 100% to stay here if you are coming to Ella.

    This has been an amazing stay for us. The place is so clean and spacious and the views are just spectacular. More than what we expected. Staff were so hospitable and accommodated our every request, even helping us to organise a last minute trip to Nuwara Eliya. We feel so lucky to have stumbled across this place, and at such a great price too!

    Just keep in mind you will need a tuktuk to reach the location (not accessible by car). The hotel arranges that for free between 8AM and 8PM. Also no AC but it wasn't a problem as it is very cool in Ella.

    Everything was perfect, from the room to the view and the breakfast.

    The only small problem was that the location made it quite loud at night which made sleeping difficult. I woke up from wind and animals a lot.

    Loooved it here - so peaceful. Huge private balcony with an incredible view. Beautiful comfortable bed. Wonderful host was so helpful organising my very short afternoon in Ella - was able to do little adams peak and nine arches in 3 hours and back in time for a lion beer and delicious kottu (order in advance).

    The only small downside is the bumpy ride to and from the hotel, but the shuttle service was great.

    The view from the terrace, watching monkeys and being able to have breakfast in the room was great. The breakfast itself was superb and staff was really friendly. The room itself was well equipped and the bed was comfy.
