Spectacular views

Honestly, pictures don't do it justice. Waking up to the "most amazing view" of the Ella Gap every morning was the absolute highlight of my trip. The location is a hiker's dream. It’s a great base for walks to Ella Rock, Little Adam’s Peak, and the famous Nine Arch Bridge. While it feels tucked away in nature, it’s actually very close to the main street, making it easy to wander down and try all the different local food options. The staff were incredibly helpful and went out of their way to make sure I had everything I needed.

Great location in Ella for a family stay

This was a perfect place to stay in Ella. The location was great slightly up a steep hill but it meant it was quiet with a beautiful view. The family room was perfect for our family of five. The main bed was a little bit hard but otherwise it was perfect. The staff at the hotel was so lovely and accommodating and the breakfast was delicious.

The staff were amazing, so friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious, so much food for what we paid. We watched a beautiful sunset on the rooftop, which was incredible. We were a group of 5 and had a really great and comfortable stay. It's right near town as well which was great.

Fantastic location, kind and helpful staff! Highly recommend!

Perfect location in the middle of Ella, but just off the main road so it’s lovely and quiet in the evenings. 5 minute walk from anywhere you need in town. The most beautiful view of little Adam’s peak and Ella’s rock from the roof and dining area. 3 different menus for breakfast including normal, vegan and gluten free!
