Pros:

swimming pool and view were fantastic. Lovely staff. Short steep walk up to the hotel but you get used to it and it was worth it for the central location and fantastic pool

Zu 100% zu empfehlen!
Pros:

Wir sind schon sehr früh an der Unterkunft angekommen. Wir konnten unser Gepäck abstellen, den kühlen und sauberen Pool genießen und auch schon gegen 12 Uhr das Zimmer beziehen. Das Zimmer ist sehr geräumig mit einer tollen Aussicht. Das Personal ist sehr bemüht und herzlich! Das Frühstück war sehr lecker und reichhaltig. Die Lage ist perfekt. Das Hotel liegt sehr zentral in einer Nebenstraße. Dadurch ist es schön ruhig.

Cons:

Gut zu wissen: es gibt keinen Aufzug und die Einfahrt ist sehr steil. Wir sind mit eigenem Tuktuk angereist. Es war spannend aber machbar.

Un lugar increíble
Pros:

Todo! Desde las vistas, como su nombre indica, la habitación y sobre todo el servicio. Tanto el chico de la recepción como el encargado han sido muy amables desde el primer momento.
La ubicación es perfecta y las vistas y piscina geniales. Para mi uno de los mejores hoteles en Sri Lanka de los que he estado.

As a family we thoroughly enjoyed our two-day stay at Alta Vista
Pros:

We enjoyed the central location, good view of Ella and the surrounding. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Rooms and facilities were clead and they had a large and fresh pool.

Cons:

There is a dining area, but a more defined cafe/serving area would have added to the experience.

Prettig verblijf gehad
Pros:

Ruimtelijke kamers en zwembad, goede matrassen. Dichtbij leuke cafés en restaurants.

Cons:

Niet sfeervol, alles is behoorlijk gedateerd, ze hebben een fantastische locatie om er ook echt wat van te maken maar ze hebben niks met de aankleding gedaan. Je stapt mbt je kamer de tijd in van 30 jr geleden zeker. Het sanitair is wel vernieuwd. Wel iedere keer een behoorlijk stijle heuvel op er te komen maar dat weet je.
