Hive Ella - Hostel

Ella

Situated in Ella, 4.7 km from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge, Hive Ella - Hostel features accommodation with a garden, private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace. Located around 49 km from Hakgala Botanical Garden, the hostel with free WiFi is also 49 km away from Horton Plains National Park. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, and currency exchange for guests. Hive Ella was a perfect intimate social hostel right in the heart of Ella, but far enough off the main street that you still feel like you’re in nature. Gihan the manager does an incredible job at creating a social environment by organising family dinners, cooking classes, bon fires, or dinners together in town! He was always helping everyone organise activities for the day by arranging shared tuk tuks or scootys. The hostel is very clean, and the traditional Sri Lankan breakfast served with fruit was delicious! The food cooked by the staff for family dinners (and the guests) was incredibly flavourful. The private room was spacious and comfortable. I highly recommend Hive Ella!

After that we visited the nine arch bridge and breathtaking water falls. Above all we saw wild elephants - we still can’t belive that happened.
