    Had all the facilities for very good stay during our three weeks holidays. This was a beautiful place to stay very close to the centre and the pathway leading to Ella Rock. The breakfast with extra cake for new year celebrations they offered us was savoury and delicious.

    the location of this guesthouse at the top of mountain view road was perfect. the owner went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, even taking us down to the main street for dinner in his Tuk tuk. the views from our terrace were stunning, and we couldn't get enough of the delicious breakfast served each morning. the family room was new and immaculately clean, with large comfortable beds. the owner also arranged a fantastic guide for our hike to Ella Rock and took us to see other beautiful spots in the area. We will definitely be returning here!

    Nothing, all great! 😊.

    We had a fantastic stay at a charming guesthouse in a picturesque location. Our room had two comfortable double beds, a private bathroom, and a spacious balcony overlooking a breathtaking waterfall and scenic landscape. The host went above and beyond to assist us with our travel plans, providing helpful recommendations for local attractions and arranging our laundry. The breakfast each morning was outstanding, and we thoroughly enjoyed a delicious traditional rice and curry dinner. we had a wonderful experience and highly recommend this guesthouse for a memorable stay in Ella.

    We had a fantastic stay at the Marvellous Inn for 3 nights. The owner, Mr. Ari, kindly picked us up from the railway station in his tuk tuk and even dropped us off at various places during our stay. The food was delicious and fresh, and the family was very friendly. The rooms offered a beautiful view of the waterfalls and estate, perfect for nature lovers. a must-go for a peaceful and enjoyable experience.

    Can recommend this hotel.

    We had a delightful 3-night stay at this peaceful hotel. The rooms were comfortable and quiet, and the veranda offered stunning morning views. The host family was incredibly welcoming, especially to our young daughter. The meals were some of the best we had during our trip. The owner, Hari, even took us for rides in his tuk tuk. Highly recommend this comfortable, friendly hotel with beautiful surroundings.

    Can't recommend this hotel highly enough!

    This charming inn is nestled in a quiet valley, offering a serene escape from the bustling city center. the friendly family running the place goes above and beyond to make your stay comfortable, even giving you a lift to the city when needed. With its stunning views of waterfalls and helpful advice on transportation, you'll have everything you need to explore the area. the spacious rooms come with mosquito nets and a balcony, providing a peaceful setting to enjoy the delicious breakfast spread.

    The inn's location may be a bit far from town, making it a bit inconvenient for those with young children who need to be carried.

    The location of the hotel was absolutely stunning, with amazing views of the mountains and a beautiful waterfall. The peaceful surroundings made our romantic escape truly magical. the rooms were spacious and comfortable, ensuring a pleasant stay. The delicious breakfast provided by the friendly staff was the cherry on top of our wonderful experience.

    The water pressure in the showers was quite low, which made it a bit challenging to shower comfortably. the hotel's remote location made it a bit difficult to access the main attractions in the area, requiring either a tuk-tuk or a long walk.

    The view from my room at Marvellous Inn was absolutely breathtaking. I could see the stunning scenery right from my balcony. The breakfast served on the balcony was delicious, especially the coconut pancakes. The location of the property was perfect, just a short walk from town. The owners were incredibly friendly and even helped me plan a visit to Diyaluma Falls. I highly recommend this hotel for its amazing views, delicious food, and friendly service.
