Guest Reviews
Camere bellissime con vista unica. Colazione molto buona e proprietario gentile.
Posizione un po' scomoda per raggiungere il centro di Ella.
È andata via la luce e l'acqua per un paio di ore la mattina
Las vistas desde la habitación son increíbles. La habitación es espaciosa y cómoda. El desayuno es muy bueno y el trato del personal es muy agradable, aconsejándonos sobre la ruta a Ella Rock e incluso nos preparó un desayuno para llevar ya que cogíamos el tren temprano al día siguiente.
El baño algo justo, necesita una limpieza y reparar la ventana, ya que en una parte no cierra bien y entran bastantes mosquitos. Sabíamos que estaba algo apartado y buscábamos tranquilidad pero conducir por esas carreteras es algo incómodo al estar en lo alto de Ella.
La vue sur les montagnes, la propreté des lieux, la grandeur de la chambre

Это очень крутое место!
Шикарный вид на горы, красота неописуемая!
Огромные номера, все чисто, комфортно! Большая кровать, хорошее постельное белье.
Накормили лучшим завтраком за всю нашу поездку по Шри-Ланке (это была шестая остановка)
Гостеприимный и отзывчивый хозяин.
Мы приехали на один день, а остались на два.
The room was very big with awesome views of the mountains right in front of our balcony. Very relaxing place. You can order food from a very good restaurant with a huge menu.
It’s a bit far from Ella but also a more relaxing place to stay away from the chaos of the town.
A truly wonderful place. A rustic sanctuary in the Ella hills. Highly recommended.
Wish the rooms had AC, although the gentle breeze in Ella (and the fans in all rooms) means that it really isn’t a big problem.
Nice and spatious rooms and place, moscits on all beds, excellent wiev to the green hills, even from the bed, nice and helpfull owner and people around. Good breakfast. Hotel is 20 min driving to Ella.
Bathrooms need a bit care namely tiling. One room (out of our 3 rented) didn't have warm water for 3 days.
Nestled in a sleepy hill village between Ella and Bandarawela, Maridian Hotel is a quiet retreat far away from the usual tourist trail- quite literally in the middle of nowhere. The two towns lie at a fair distance, requiring a tuk-tuk ride, which only adds to the sense of seclusion and charm.
The property itself is basic, yet what it lacks in luxury it more than makes up for in natural beauty and serenity. Our room was surprisingly spacious and opened to an L-shaped balcony that offered an uninterrupted view of the mountains. The moment we slid open the balcony doors, we were met with a view that was nothing short of breathtaking- vast, wild mountains stretching endlessly into the horizon, with strong winds and the soothing sounds of nature all around.
We spent hours on the beanbags in silence, simply listening to the wind, the occasional bird call, and from a distance- the quiet, almost ghostlike movement of a train on an old bridge. At night, the silence deepened. With no other guests in sight, it felt like we had stepped into a forgotten chapter of a novel.
There is a small, open restaurant on-site, dimly lit and surrounded by darkness, except for the soft glow of distant hilltop homes. Dining there, accompanied only by an elderly night guard, felt like something from a dream, the perfect setting to finish an old mystery manuscript or simply reflect in peace.
The room had a full glass front wall, letting in soft golden sunlight each morning. Breakfast was simple and hearty, served warmly by the host.
I took a walk along the quiet road, passing small shops and smiling locals, genuine and welcoming, unlike many tourist spots.
We stayed only two nights, but the peaceful village, the silence, the wind, and the kindness of its people stayed with me.
If you’re looking to escape the noise of Ella and slow down for a while, Maridian Hotel is a perfect hidden retreat.
The canopy bed curtains could definitely use some cleaning, as there were cobwebs on top, and we didn't get hot water in the morning — perhaps the geyser takes longer to heat up. The door bolts also need some repair. While these were minor inconveniences for me personally, they may bother others, and a bit more attention to maintenance would greatly improve the overall experience at this otherwise magical place.
I stayed three nights at the Maridian Hotel.
The thing I liked the most about the place was the view. Our host, Mr Chaminda,is a great guy, very friendly and helpful and made our stay really great.
I am not a big fan of open showers.
Location was perfect for the nature lovers. View from the room itself amazing 🤩 from the bed you can see the whole mountain range. Also witness the train going through mountains from room balcony. Also can have good breakfast with the Mountain View. I heard peacock sound from far but couldn’t spot any. Owner of the property is very friendly and also supportive.
The place is superb with a nice location
The room was large with amazing views. There is a restaurant that orders in for you, either traditional Sri Lankan food or pizza hut. The breakfast was large and filling. The host was fantastic and always around if you needed him.
I found the mattress hard, but guess that is personal preference.
I had an amazing stay in Bandarawela! The place was clean, cozy, and perfect for a relaxing getaway. What truly stood out was the warm hospitality – the manager was incredibly friendly, always making sure everything was just right. One of the highlights of my stay was the local breakfast – absolutely delicious and full of authentic Sri Lankan flavors. A truly memorable experience, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
The view was nice, the beds comfortable, the room spacious.
Unfortunately, the bathroom really had a mold issue. It smelled in the entire room even after airing. The shower wasn't hot the first day (ask - it was just the electric heater that was off). The restaurant is more like a hostel. The price was affordable, but with the smell we should have rather chosen something different.
