The Cubes Ella ★★★

📍 The Cubes, Ella, Badulla

"We had the most lovely stay here! Our room was gorgeous with an amazing view of the mountains and the staff were just perfect. The food was so good (breakfast is hugeeee so prepare to eat well in the morning) and the drive into town took about 3 mins by tuk tuk or about a 20 minute walk. Perfect!"

Ella Flower Garden Resort
8.7 (69 reviews)

Ella Flower Garden Resort ★★★★

📍 3rd mile post, passara rd, Ella, Badulla

"Spent 2 nights at this hotel during our holiday. Small comfortable rooms ours had a gorgeous view over the flowers and onto the mountains. Breakfast plentiful We had a very early departure and staff were up to help with bags and provide us with a packed breakfast for the journey! Restaurant is next door - connected to hotel but separate (you can’t add the meal to your room bill) Just note if staying at full moon no alcohol served. Very convenient location for walk to 9 arch bridge and little Adam’s peak and a 15-20 minute walk down to main part of town"

Jetwing Warwick Gardens, A Luxury Reserve
9.3 (41 reviews)

Jetwing Warwick Gardens, A Luxury Reserve ★★★★★

📍 Lower Ambewela Division, Ambewela, Badulla

"What a fantastic location! This restored old colonial bungalow, with its beautiful landscaped garden, looks out over surrounding luscious hillsides in the heart of Sri Lanka's tea growing region. Although the hotel is isolated we found that the peace and tranquility it offered just added to its charm. We especially enjoyed eating our breakfast in the sunshine on the front patio accompanied by a chorus of birdsong. The single track approach road from the high road was very bumpy and we were relieved to be told by the hotel staff that they ensured only one vehicle was allowed along it at a time, to avoid two vehicles meeting each other from opposite directions! The staff were very keen to make our stay a pleasant one. The food was tasty and interesting and the room and the beds comfortable. The WiFi was patchy in our room, but we found that it was possible to get a reasonable connection from the living room – because it was closer to the router located in the hallway. The only other niggle we had was a lack of hot water on our first night, but after telling the staff about this the next morning it was quickly remedied."

Jetwing Hoffmann Bungalow
10 (40 reviews)

Jetwing Hoffmann Bungalow ★★★★

📍 Uva Benhead Estate, 100 Arcs, Badulla

"This place is indeed a gem. An experience you must have to enjoy the planters life in the hill side of Sri Lanka. The bungalow comes with a talented cook who can do magic with cusine. From a simple black tea to a delicious dinner, the food experience is so satisfying. Fresh organic ingredients and the best vegetables and fruits full fills your taste buds. The manager, Mr. Gayan Vithanage is very attentive and a great host. The next day we went to hike the world's end and they were kind enough to pack us lunch. Such an amazing experience."

"Our family had a truly wonderful stay at Mapakada Village, and it was one of the highlights of our trip. The hotel is set in a beautiful and peaceful location, with stunning views of the lake and a very relaxing atmosphere. From the moment we arrived until the time we checked out, we felt genuinely welcomed and well looked after. A very special thank you to Mr. Eshwara, who went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. Also thanks to the entire team at Mapakada Village for creating such a wonderful and enjoyable stay.😊"

"What a find! Absolutely beautiful & stylish. The rooms look out over lush jungle. And yet only a 20 minute walk from the busy town of Ella. Tony the manager is wonderful, nothing was too much trouble, from tuk tuks, to taxis, to advising us what to pay. And such a gorgeous breakfast. All the staff are lovely. Huge bed & silent aircon"

"Secluded hotel in Sri Lankan jungle, away from hustle and bustle of backpackers’ hell"

Thotalagala Hotels in Badulla

Thotalagala

"Thotalagala was an extraordinary experience and our favorite hotel in Sri Lanka. The site is breathtaking and the cottage has been painstakingly restored to be an oasis with spectacular views in the midst of tea country. Service was impeccable and so kind."

Anasa Wellness Resort Hotels in Badulla

Anasa Wellness Resort

"Our stay was absolutely delightful. From the moment we arrived, the staff, especially Imad and Luky at the reception, were incredibly friendly and helpful. The food was exceptional! We opted for the half-board option, and Chef Paul truly outdid himself. Both breakfast and dinner were served à la carte, offering a dining experience comparable to a 7-star restaurant in Dubai. Ishfak, our waiter, was very welcoming and attentive. The weather was fantastic, the chalets were spotlessly clean, and the yoga classes, gym, swimming pool, basketball court were excellent additions to the experience. If you’re looking for an escape from your busy life, I highly recommend heading straight here from the airport and staying for a week. During our trip, we spent two nights in Kandy, two nights in Nuwara Eliya, and three nights at Anasa Resort. However, on our next visit, we’ll come directly to Anasa Resort. While Kandy and Nuwara Eliya offer a glimpse into Sri Lankan culture, skipping them and heading straight here provides a unique, serene experience. I hope the above would help you in planning your next trip to Srilanka, Maya"

"The hotel is in the mountains and forests, the environment is very good, there is a large terrace, the boss is a very kind couple, the breakfast is also very rich, the black tea is very good, you can take various photos near the hotel, take pictures of the starry sky, the galaxy and fireflies on the terrace. Super cost-effective, very recommended"

Ella Dream Mount Hotels in Badulla

Ella Dream Mount

"The hotel has problems!!! We were allegedly upgraded to a superior room. It was nice but I’m not sure what was superior about it. Water ran very slowly and the air conditioning kept tripping the electrics every 15 minutes. (Literally 3 times in 45 minutes when we got back from dinner and that doesn’t take into account the 4 or 5 times it tripped before we went out). When I complained the staff were very helpful and moved us to a room on the second story where we stayed for 2 nights. The door to this room was very badly warped but did lock. The water ran even slower than the first room but we managed a shower (just). The bath wasn’t attached to the wall and did not have an end panel. I’m not sure you could use the bath, we didn’t try! The windows were badly warped but the worst part was a floor to ceiling window that couldn’t be secured shut. If someone leant on it whilst brushing their teeth they would literally have plummeted 2 stories to the ground. I mentioned this to the hotel who said the room wasn’t finished!! Breakfast was good, service good, staff friendly, location quite far out of town. The hotel did say we may have problems with TukTuks and gave us the number of someone that worked well. Of the 6 hotels we have stayed in Sri Lanka this was by far the worst and we were pleased to leave."

"My stay at Ella Jungle Resort was an immersive experience that brought me close to nature in a way few places can. Tucked away in the lush greenery of Ella, the resort is surrounded by dense forests, waterfalls, and the soothing sounds of the jungle. The journey to the resort, involving a scenic drive and a short off-road adventure, set the stage for the unique escape that followed. The eco-friendly cabins were simple yet comfortable, designed to blend seamlessly with the natural environment. Waking up to the sound of birds and the rustle of leaves was a refreshing change from city life. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, enhancing the stay with guided nature walks and activities like waterfall abseiling. Dining at the resort offered wholesome, locally-inspired meals that matched the rustic atmosphere. Overall, Ella Jungle Resort is perfect for nature lovers and adventure seekers looking to disconnect and soak in the beauty of Sri Lanka’s highlands."

Jetwing Warwick Gardens, A Luxury Reserve ★★★★★
"We stayed at Warwick Gardens as a 3 family group during our recent visit to Sri Lanka. From the time we checked in, Viji and Ruba took care of all our needs with a smile. They were kind, polite and efficient in all their dealings with us. Chef Yoga was magical and produced delicacy after delicacy for each meal. No request was turned down or nothing was too big for this team. The Tea Experience was amazing with Jeyakumar and Viji taking us through every stage of tea - planting, plucking, sorting, drying to producing artisanal teas! This ended up with a home cooked lunch the traditional way at Meenamma's line room. All the vegetables were from the plantation and the meal was delicious. The tea tasting experience was one of a kind and a memorable event. We ended up buying a whole lot of tea for personal use and as gifts. The location is remote as expected, and the access roads still show devastating effects of hurricane Ditwah. The gardens look out into the distant mountains with walking paths offering a bird's eye view of the village below. The bungalow is beautifully renovated from a 1850's tea planter's home carefully preserving the original detailing. Rooms are tastefully decorated, and clean. After the checkout we realized that a valuable personal item was left behind. Gayan, the manager of the property was kind enough to personally deliver this to us at the hotel we stayed in Colombo. Jetwing Warwick Gardens and the team will stay in our memories for years to come and we look forward for a second visit during our next holiday to Sri Lanka."
