Managed by a private host
Such an incredible view! The room was really comfortable and we loved having breakfast looking out over the hills each morning. The location was fantastic - just 5 mins walk from the main town but felt so quiet and calm.
Everything about Star Gaze Lodge is excellent, from the breathtaking view of Ella Rock and down the valley to the delicious breakfast prepared by Waruna. Teesha had very clear and prompt communication before, during and even after which was much appreciated. The room was very clean, bed extremely comfortable and wifi excellent. Waking up to the birds and squirrels and having breakfast on the balcony was very special. It is only a short walk into town and you can even walk to Nine Arch Bridge and Little Adams Peak. I would most definitely recommend this stay. Thanks Teesha and Waruna
Logement magnifique, une chambre avec une vue imprenable sur la vallée. Service impeccable également.
Je recommande cet hôtel.
Красивый вид с терассы. Ради красоты в Эллу и поехал. В номере даже бинокль обнаружился. Отличный завтрак.
Центральная улица в пешей доступности. Да и до Малого пика Адама и Zipline, и девятиарочного моста дойти можно при желании.
Теплой воды в душе не обнаружил, помылся холодной. Не хватает москитных сеток. Спать с закрытыми окнами было душновато. Персонал утверждает, что это апрель 2026 такой жаркий, обычно ночами в горах прохладно. хз.
Spotless, great views, very friendly helpful staff, personal touches made a difference
No air con otherwise perfect
We had a wonderful stay at Star Gaze Lodge. The room was comfortable and clean and had incredible views of Ella. The staff were so lovely and attentive with lots of great recommendations. The town of Ella is just a short 5 minute walk away. I would really recommend staying here.
Prima locatie met mooi uitzicht tijdens het ontbijt. Vriendelijke mensen.
Als je het boekt denk je een mooie ruime kamer met balkon en uitzicht te hebben. Echter toen we aankwamen was de kamer erg klein en niet wat we hadden verwacht. 2 backpacks konden we net kwijt, maar we konden onze kont niet meer keren. In de badkamer was de fohn kapot, het toilet spoelde niet goed door en zat los. De douche was moeilijk te reguleren. De kamer had veel open kieren en gaten, waardoor we savonds een kakkerlak in de badkamer hadden zitten.
Sehr schöne aussicht und super lage! Die Hosts waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit
Вид шикарен. Завтрак великолепен. Это превзошло мои ожидания
В номере курили, неприятно пахло. Возможно, это разрешено, и я просто не проверила при брони.
petit déjeuner de princesse, très copieux avec une vue imprenable sur la nature et les montagnes, très beau souvenir. La vue de la chambre aussi est inoubliable
une pancarte d'indication à l'entrée de la ruelle, on peut faire avec la géolocalisation mais bon ! l'établissement n'est pas très visible on voit l'enseigne seulement quand on est devant
Really friendly staff. Sent recommendations before arrival.
Really well furnished.
Amazing view. Best breakfast view ever!
Wish we could have stayed for longer!
The location is perfect for exploring Ella Rock and Little Adam’s Peak. It’s only a 10 minute walk to the main street while still being very quiet and peaceful. The breakfast is generous and the view is stunning. The room is clean and spacious.
The hosts are incredibly friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here and would gladly book it again.
Mooiste uitzicht, loopafstand van het centrum van Ella, fijn appartement
Niets
Great location. Fantastic views from the roof terrace where we ate breakfast and star gazed at night. Teesha and Pietr are engaging hosts, a font of local knowledge, and good company, as is their dog Goldie. Also a mention for Waruna who looked after us very well.
Nothing
Star Gaze Lodge is all about the view, which is simply stunning - Ella Rock & even sunrise over Little Adam’s Peak😊, it was lovely sitting on the dual aspect terrace enjoying the view & hearing just the sounds of birds.
The host (Teesha) is very welcoming and gave us some great recommendations, including dinner at Clay Pot (fantastic food & ambience), Varuna, always with a big smile on his face made us very substantial & delicious breakfasts.
A very good iron & board is provided & plenty of storage space.
There is a fridge & kettle available in the room & we liked having a sofa to sit on to watch TV or read.
Really nice touch to give fridge magnet & postcards on departure, thank you.
It is in need of some improvements, which would have resulted in a much higher score:
-Ventilation is an issue, especially in the very large bathroom - you can have the window open (not feasible at night with mosquitoes) but there is no extractor fan.
-There is no hot water available in the sink and the tap really does need replacing.
-There is no lamp for more subtle lighting & none of the lights above the bed worked.
-There are plants all around the balcony which is lovely but they do need watering! We watered them whilst we were there as they were completely dry!
-The room would look better & feel cooler without the carpet and as there’s no air conditioning, the fan really needs to be on all the time on hot nights rather than only for a max of 1 hour at a time.
-A couple of wine glasses provided would have been great as it would have been so nice sitting enjoying the balcony & views in the evenings.
Very lovely couple that were very attentive. Varuna was very accommodating as well! The room itself was absolutely stunning and the view was gorgeous to wake up to as well as to watch the stars at night. Truly an amazing place to stay!
