Heaven on earth! Absolutely spoiled every morning with breakfast on their rooftop overlooking the famous Ella Rock. Possibly the best bedroom view I’ve ever seen. We travelled in April which is notoriously muggy and hot, but the electric fans are very powerful and kept us nice and cool in the evenings, they even have a sleep setting on them!
Couldn’t have asked for much more. 5 min TukTuk to and from town (500sr or £1.50). Or a peaceful 10 minute walk.

Para salir del paso está bien, si alquilas moto tienes espacio para aparcar también. Que no haya agua caliente fue lo peor pero por el precio que pagas, no puedes pedir mucho
We had the happiest two nights in Ella. The address of the hotel is in the mountains, cut off from the world. So everyday we saw squirrels and peacocks.It has a beautiful mountain view.The hotel owner is very kind,Prepared big breakfast for us every day. To come to town and lend us his motorcycle, Ten minutes to the center of Ella town. The most touching thing is that the boss also booked us a bus ticket to the next destination (local bus), and accompanied us to the station, only to see us on the bus he left. This is a great hotel choice in Ella,highly recommended to everyone
Very good place to stay with awesome views. The staff took great care off us. Only downside to gaving good views the location is quite far from the city centre. So pick me and uber drivers won't take any rides since the app prices are way cheaper so no choice but to pay tourist fares. Room as an electric fan but AC would have been nice.
A wonderful stay with a kind attentive host. He did so much for me, took me around on his bike, brought fresh fruit for breakfast.
The location is quiet and peaceful as well as beautiful in the mountains. Great for walks and the morning is especially nice with the mist.
If you're staying in Ella, I highly recommend here.
AAntonella BonissiDowa Elegance Resort is a peaceful retreat surrounded by beautiful nature. The rooms are clean and comfortable, the staff is very kind and attentive, and the atmosphere is perfect for relaxation. A great place to enjoy the beauty of Sri Lanka with warm hospitality.
AAngelo AmanteDefinitely gotta be one of the best hotels in Ella, the staff were very friendly and helpful, the rooms are spacious, and the view is even better, I would definitely stay here again if I come back to Ella
ゲゲストLovely property with its kinks. The property is in the middle of the jungle and the views are lovely and the hospitality is quite nice. However, it comes with its set of challenges like power cut, mosquitoes. Not suitable during the rainy season. The entry to the property is very uncomfortable through the truck. But the gondola ride is quite pleasant. It’s a lovely property during the day. Not very nice during the night. It’s a true living in the jungle experience.
CcnphoebeThis was a really lovely stay in a glamping tent which would highly recommend. The staff looked after us very well - Solomon in particular was an exceptional guide. We also had a fantastic dinner under the stars.
However a couple of things to mention:
The safari is a 40 minute drive away as the accommodation is far from the park entrance. Not a problem, but worth noting.
The water wasn’t working for a short while, but this was fixed quickly. Don’t expect a 5 star luxury stay, but I was really impressed with the tents.
We were the only ones staying there, which meant it was lacking in ambiance a little bit.

ゲゲストExcellent stay with wonderful hosts who went above and beyond; they even provided a packed breakfast with coffee for our 5AM morning safari and a cooked breakfast when we returned. Dinner was excellent and so plentiful! The rooms were brand-new, spotlessly clean, and had everything you needed, including nice linen. The location is perfect—only 15 minutes from the Katagamuwa entrance to Block 1, which was great as it wasn’t too busy!
