The view from the hotel is truly unbeatable. What’s even better is that there is a shortcut that takes you to the bridge in only five minutes. The room itself is clean and cozy. The owners are incredibly friendly and lovable. The breakfast was really delicious. The owner picked me up from the station which made me feel welcome right from the start. He also dropped me early in the morning at the starting point of the Little Adam’s Peak hike. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Ella.

We picked Nethsara because it was a family run accommodation just outside the centre. We thought it would be friendly, peaceful with great food. We also wanted to meet and support local people rather than just stay in a big hotel. Nethsara was this and much more. The room was spotless, had a great shower, a fridge and a kettle. It had a fan though we didn't need it. Madusha was friendly and hospitable. She cooked a great Sri Lankan breakfast which was so big we had enough fruit to eat in the evening. Upon request, she made us dial and hoppers. She also did our washing for a good price. She put us in touch with a lovely lad who became our tuk-tuk driver for the duration ( he charged a very fair rate and can be trusted to give you a price that undercuts other local drivers- just go with him. He is called Kavi) The view is really beautiful and you can see Ella Temple in the distance-- go, it is fabulous.

Everything was just perfect!! We have been there for 4 nights. Devaka and his family have been so nice and the food (breakfast & dinner) was really good. Devaka took us to a tea factory which was very interesting and also gave us a lot of helpful tips for the hikes and other stuff to do around. Room was small but had everything, also very confortable beds. The shower was also hot, what is very nice when it‘s a bit colder. The place was perfect, far away from the chaotic Ella but close enough to the train station. Thanks again to Devaka and his family. Highly recommended to stay there!!

The place has excellent location, built in peaceful jungle yet 10 min walking distance to town. I loved my room with 360° view feeling like in tree house. The hosts were very helpful and attentive, the food amazing. Little oasis in busy Ella.

    Our stay at River Lodge was very pleasant. The room was clean, spacious, comfy bed & shower. You can hear the river from the rooms and restaurant. The local Sri Lankan food was really tasty. The owner and his colleagues are very friendly and made us feel like home. In the morning we took bath in the river and lay in the grass under the trees to read a book. The room is very cheap for the quality of the stay. We really recommend staying at River Lodge!
