Hideaway Ella

"Come as Guests, Leave as Friends" That is the slogan that you see once you enter the place Overall review of the stay Rooms: 9/10 - Clean rooms Staff: 10/10 - Super staff and they were super polite as well Food: 10/10 - You can ask their recommendations when selecting food Pool: 5/10 - Not cleaned regularly, but a different exposure to pools

Be ware of the owner Janaki's variety of fabrications; false information about the room facilities, services, rates and their guest experience. Indeed, she will remarkably swindle you when appropriate, ultimately you will loose. It was a total waste of my time, energy and money. I highly advise all the readers, not to visit this terrible hotel to experience inferior guest services that may potentially exacerbate your anger issues for sure while you are indulge on your leisure & pleasure. The owner dishonestly charged me two packs rate despite I have confirmed, I am a single traveler, looking for a single room. Most shocking part was, she honoured me only two meals (brekkie + dinner) for LKR 15,000 while other guests (2 x visitors) on the same date were extended 3 meals to the same rate. This is a shame though, very cheap act of the owners and showcase of their appalling class of services and intentions for their fellow guests. I came all the way from Australia to visit this scenic region, also I am a dual citizen that owns Sri Lankan citizenship as well. I warn all the international and local travelers, this is not the hotel experience you must explore ever in your life time. This hotel even not deserve a single star, but as per the requirement of the google rating, I have to offer single star reluctantly. The sleep was very interrupted without proper room heating system and essentially I was extremely disappointed to see plenty cockroaches, spiders, bugs in the room where the guests health & safety has been substantially compromised and jeopardized. Bed linens were very smelly and bath towels were not even in usable conditions. I wonder whether the Sri Lankan Tourist Board allows to function such shoddy hotels (I do not rate this as a hotel though) for promoting the country's sinking tourism industry? especially in Ella town where most recently majority international & local travelers are desperate to visit in order to feel this novel experience in Ella vibes and fascinating tourism. I do not believe neither a local or an overseas guests are deserve to see this horrendous service, instead find a proper rated hotel in Ella town. Please do not misjudged with their fake feedback and also do not try out their sister property called "Hideaway Trails Ella" as well. Ella Gap, Ella Heritage, Kithal Ella Station Resort are fabulous. Try them or else where that fits with your budget and expectations.

Worst experience I had on Airbnb in the last ten years I have been using the platform. The ad mentionned we had the whole house to ourselves and the host intentionally let Us believe we did. However, once we got there he told us we only had one room and we had to pay if we wanted an extra room, while we were the only 2 guests they had had in a couple of weeks - house was empty. This was extremely dishonest. Plus, the unique room we had was dirty and smelled bad. Spiders and cockroaches guaranteed. Run away from this place.

Great house with a few rooms. The service was absolutely perfect and the cook served very good meals. There is a nice pool and the breakfast on the terrace with gorgeous view was great! Very cosy rooms The house is alone, so very quiet

Bel hôtel calme au milieu de la nature , le petit déjeuner est servi à l’extérieur avec une vue splendide sur les montagnes.Le service est excellent. Les chambres sont spacieuses.Par contre le Wifi fonctionne très mal.Les serveurs sont souriants et efficaces.

Het hotel ligt een km of 10-15 buiten Ella maar daarom heel rustig op een paradijselijke plek met uitzicht op de heuvels en bergen rondom Ella waaronder Little Adam’s Peak. Heel ruime kamers met idem dito badkamer. Het is niet heel luxueus (ooit mss wel geweest) maar is zeer zeker een prettig, comfortabel en schoon hotel. Kamers hebben een ventilator (geen airco, dat is in dit deel van Sri Lanka niet echt nodig) en het personeel is erg vriendelijk. Het ontbijt werd buiten geserveerd; met bovengenoemd uitzicht en Engels servies waan je je terug in de koloniale tijd. Of gewoon God in Frankrijk. Kortom: wij hebben er met veel plezier verbleven.

Magnifique chambre pour 4 avec vue sur la montagne. Elle est au dessus des cuisines et c'est très sonore. Dans l'hôtel, il y avait un groupe très bruyant avec musique à fond et pétards sans que le personnel ne dise quoi que ce soit, dommage ! Les repas sont de moyenne qualité mais le personnel est agréable. Le petit déj est très bon en revanche.
