“As a starting property it’s fine. If they recognize their missing service areas they will do great soon”
The view was amazingly breathtaking. Beautiful Ella rock view from the room. Also the food is excellent. We asked for milk rice for breakfast which was not on the menu but they prepared it for us. It was very nice.

“Breathtaking views, but semi-opened at the moment”
The view is amazing, one of the best ever. Also the staff were very nice. We really enjoyed our stay here, although it is really partially under construction. For its full glory I would recommend booking it after few months. But nevertheless we really enjoyed big comfortable room with outstanding views.

“Beautiful room in great location”
As it’s a new hotel, there was some construction ongoing, however the room itself was very nice. The hotel has comfortable beds and stunning mountain views, and is located just a 400 m walk from the town’s main road. Staff were friendly and helpful upon arrival and check out.

“Nice location overlooking the hills and comfortable rooms/modern bathrooms. Currently under construction, can be haz”
Location: close enough to the town Center, but far enough to be quiet. 5 minutes walk to the town center, ideal location Facilities: large enough rooms with modern/functional bathrooms and balconies with amazing views of the hills. Waking up to these views and having a cup of tea on the balcony have been my favourite things every morning. Staff: Friendly and helpful staff who serve with a smile.

“Construction significant disruption”
The room itself and the bathroom were of a good modern standard. And the location to the centre of Ella was very good.
