Muy bien hotel para disfrutar de Ella
Pros:

El trato del personal fue excelente. La habitación amplia, limpia, bonita y con terraza.
El desayuno muy bueno. Abundante, rico y servido a la hora que lo pidieses, lo que facilitaba mucho hacer las visitas programadas.
El alojamiento no está en pleno centro de Ella, lo cual al final fue una ventaja. Te quitas todo el jaleo que a partir de la 8 se monta en el pueblo, que está bien disfrutarlo pero no padecerlo. Te coges un tuk tuk por menos de 2 euros y te deja en tu hotel en 5 minutos y a descansar. Si vas en familia como yo lo agradeces
Si vas de fiesta seguro que la historia es distinta

Cons:

No hay nada que no me gustase.

Great stay with friendly staff and beautiful surroundings. I would happily stay here again.
Pros:

We had a very pleasant stay. The room was clean, comfortable, and had a beautiful view. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the location was peaceful and convenient.

Cons:

Overall, everything was good. There are only a few minor areas that could be improved, but they did not affect our stay.

Pros:

I can't really say that I liked anything.

Cons:

The building was rundown and did not match the photos on the site. There was no view. It felt dark and depressing.

Excellent
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay! The staff were incredibly kind and helpful throughout our visit. Our group of 10 enjoyed both breakfast and dinner over three nights, and the food was consistently delicious.

A special thank you to the manager, Vajira, and the rest of the team. After we checked out, our pre-booked van (organized externally) was late, and we were at serious risk of missing our train. The staff quickly stepped in to assist and arranged tuktuks for us on very short notice. Thanks to their help, we made it to the station in time.

Highly recommended for both the hospitality and service!

Pros:

I had booked a dorm bed. When i arrived the worker told me that this room is usually booked by local drivers and being a woman he wouldnt feel comfortable placing me in it. He gave me a fully private double bedroom for the same price.
I think the management did not really like it ;) but he insisted. It was very kind of him.

Pros:

Choosing where to stay in Ella can be overwhelming, but I can’t recommend Ella Mansion enough. From the moment we arrived, they made us feel incredibly welcome, going above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience. They not only helped us organize the next leg of our journey but also shared insights into life in Sri Lanka, which was such a nice touch. When we had an early departure, they even packed us a takeaway breakfast, which really impressed us. We ended up extending our stay by an extra night because we enjoyed it so much!
The hotel truly has everything you could ask for: comfortable, clean rooms; delicious breakfasts; a location that’s close enough to the city but just far enough to feel peaceful; excellent value for money; and a team of amazing staff/hosts who genuinely care about making your stay as perfect as possible.

Amazing views and vistas.
Pros:

We loved the location, plus the views from the viewing platforms. Which are upstairs above the bedrooms.The first floor platform where we ate breakfast has amazing vistas. Then there's a second floor platform which gave you an even better views.
The bedrooms are located on the ground floor, which we found comfortable and the ensuite
showers were hot. The balcony looks directly into the hotel next door, but to the right of the balcony, we had a wonderful view of the mountains.
The owner/manager, plus all the staff, were exceptional, so friendly, funny, and engaging. nothing was too much trouble for them. whatever we requested, they bent over backwards to do for us.
The staff were also able to order us tuk tuks and taxis's , when needed , and we were a short tuk tuk drive from the town centre and train station. The tuk drivers were very friendly and knowledgeable of the area, and we soon made friends.. They gave us their wats app numbers and would pick us up later once we had finished being in town. No matter how late , they always came back for us, which was very reassuring. We loved the peace and quiet of Ella mansion, too. No loud music or loud noises. We had one problem with the bathroom sink leaking at one point, but it was quickly repaired.
We enjoyed the breakfast of eggs, sausage, toast, tea, and fruit every morning ,and had a couple of lunches that we also enjoyed. Most of the time, we were out, so we ate lunch and dinner in town, but the chef was always on hand if we decided to stay in the hotel for the day.
We enjoyed lunches of both chicken, with salad and chips, and the tuna fish lunch was cooked to perfection..

Cons:

There wasn't anything we didn't like.

Ella mansion was suitable for what we needed. In fact, we booked in for 2 days and then extended our stay.
I would definitely stay here again if only to see the staff, we left feeling we had made really good friends.
Last thing, we found it to be a lot cooler here than at the beach. I had to buy 2 hoodies to keep warm, plus it felt a little damp, as we were up in the clouds in Ella. but i must say it was a welcome relief from the heat. However, a few days later, the temperature changed, and we were sweating again. Thank you, Ella mansion, for taking such wonderful care of us, we look forward to coming back again.
