Nine Skies is the definition of boutique luxury. It is a small hotel with only 5 rooms and the service we received from all the staff was truly so personable this really felt like a home away from home. The design of the whole hotel is beautiful with a wonderful living room, with a cosy fire in the evenings, and our suite room was beautiful with a terrace. The pool has an amazing view over the tea plantation. All the meals we had were delicious. Our host was very friendly and helpful, organising day trips for us and setting up our own table with lots of candles for dinner by the pool one evening, and also set up our own private breakfast at a look out point which were both lovely experiences. This hotel is brilliant if you want a very quiet, secluded spot in the Hill Country with excellent service and food. It is an expensive hotel but it is worth the money.

Staying at Wood Palace in Ella was one of the highlights of my trip. The location is perfect — it feels like you’re tucked away in the jungle, surrounded by nature and total peace, yet you’re only a short stroll from town, cafes, and everything you need. That balance between seclusion and convenience is hard to find, but this place nails it. The family who runs it make the stay extra special. The mother who prepares breakfast is absolutely adorable — she cooks with such care, and her warm smile makes every morning brighter. The breakfasts themselves are delicious, fresh, and generous. The owner is a great bloke too — kind, genuine, and always ready to help with tips, directions, or just a good chat. If you want a stay in Ella that feels authentic, welcoming, and beautifully set in nature without being far from the action, Wood Palace is the perfect choice. Highly recommended! 🌿✨

Nice and clean hotel situated bang in the middle of Ella. The room were spacious and comfortable and the staff all friendly and helpful. Being close to middle of town meant the faint hubbub of life going on outside was in the background but this was nice and anyhow stopped relatively early.

From the moment we arrived the staff were nothing but helpful, kind and considerate. We had the honeymoon suite which was perfect with our own pool. Two staff stood out to us the most, Damith and Vishwa are a credit to the business, taking time to listen to our adventures and surprised me with a birthday cake. We loved our stay and highly recommend it.

The experience at Andriyala was truly wonderful. Room was very comfortable and pleasant and the garden was beautiful and made the place feel calm and peaceful, with a quiet atmosphere throughout. Also the breakfast was delicious and so filling that lunch wasn’t even needed. The property was very clean and well looked after. A special thanks to the manager Mr. Shenon and all the staff for their friendliness and care, which made the experience even more enjoyable.

The property and garden is very beautiful and very well-maintained. It's nestled in the mountains away from the hustle and bustle of Nuwaraeliya so if you are looking for a bit of peace and quiet, this is it. The manager, Manu and staff members were very friendly and went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable. We loved the fact that the staff members were flexible and attentive to our specific needs. We hiked Ravana Rock (moderate intensity, ~2.5 hours total), which is located close to the property. Breakfast By Chef Bandula was exceptional. The milk rice was one of the best we have ever had. The tea was also absolutely perfect. All in all, it was a perfect stay and would love to come back!
