There is steep hill to get up but if you hire a scooter from the White Elephant half way up the hill, then it isnt a problem at all. They also will pick you up from Ella station if needed.

The staff were great, the room was large and clean & the view was one of the best in Ella!

It’s up a really steep hill so it’s not the best for walking but their shuttle is making things easy.

The pool on the rooftop was just perfect. The views are breathtaking. Breakfast was really good and copious. Room was clean and spacious.

It is located in a quite steep hill, but they offer a shuttle service.

The staff is incredibly nice and attentive.

Bathroom could have been a bit brighter

Lovely room with large balcony. Breakfast was great with plenty of options, and the staff were so helpful getting us up the hill / dropping us to the train

I would suggest adding more food options, not that spicy :) for a la carte. Breakfast buffet can be improved.

We had a lovely stay at Morning Dew. The staff is really nice and helpful. The room was comfortable and with beautiful views. The location itself is amazing, best place to see Ella's attractions. Food and cocktails were also good at the a la carte restaurant.

The hotel is on a Hill, which can only be reached via car and by foot. So tuk tuk isn’t an option and the path is very steep and dark at night

Nice employees and beautiful views

A little bit expensive

Sensational Views

They show you the price in the dollars but later they charge you in LKR using their own currency rate, so the prices are higher. As well for the happy hour, they said it was 2 for 1 and then it was 3 for 2. So need to be careful, they are not playing fair. No mosquitos plug.

The hotel is quite close to station. They have a roof swimming pool with a great view. The rooms are spacious and clean. The food was good

Hotel is located at the top of a steep windy unlit path! A shuttle service runs until 6pm. However if you’re dining in Ella (like we did), you need to walk up and down it! Reservation team weren’t very responsive/ helpful when we tried to extend our stay

Beautiful view from our quadruple room, room is worth it for the view alone! (although an electricity mast blocks the sunrise views!!) Room was also very spacious with a small living area, which was great. Breakfast was simple but lovely. Hotel is perfect to enjoy the view and for an action packed time in Ella. However hotel facilities are quite basic.

Is on the top of the hill, last part is it not easy to walk to the hotel. Nice pool but usually is not enough warm to be in the pool

Nice view from the pool and very good hotel

Route to hotel was extremely steep. Not all cars can manage it.

Amazing views from top floor with cafe/bar and swimming pool. Great staff looking after you. rooms were comfortable with mountain views in dual aspect windows. Beds good to sleep in.

Stayed in April 2024

The hotel is located on top of the mountain which means a steep walk up the hill - no issues, just more for people to be aware of. Hotel does provide a shuttle when you arrive and leave to help with bags.

Fantastic facilities, friendly staff, lovely pool on the roof to over look the mountains.

It is a bit of a hike as the hotel is located at the highest point of Ella town. The shuttle is not available after 6pm and the tuktuk drivers refuse to go up. It is not a big problem unless you go out for the night and return to the hotel late at night.

The room was great, the view was even better. The staff was very helpful, the room was very clean. The breakfast was delicious. The team is on top of things, from planning your arrival to a great check in process. Do visit the rooftop pool to experience the best views of Ella.

The toiletries could have been better.

The room was comfortable. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was good. The highlight of this hotel was the 5th floor rooftop bar and pool with amazing views. The hotel is an uphill walk however, they provide free shuttle service through out the day to the city center which is barely 5 min from this hotel.

Not necessarily the hotel’s fault but it was hard to sleep at night due to loud music coming from Ella until late in the AM. Potentially due to new year’s celebration.

Nice, clean room and wonderful staff. Beautiful views from the room and the pool.

The service

Stayed in April 2024

Situated on the top of a hill. Whilst we were aware of this beforehand, the sheer steepness of the hill was a major issue. So much so that we did not feel comfortable leaving the hotel in the rain for fear of slipping. Further, a tuk tuk could not actually get up the slope in the rain, meaning we had to walk the rest of the way in a downpour. Finally, despite being on the top of a hill, it was still very loud overnight. This was due to a neighbouring party hostel. Whilst there isn’t much the hotel can do to address this, it was an issue.

The staff could not be better, extremely helpful and very friendly. Food was nice, the Belimal tea upon arrival was a nice touch. Great views from the rooftop area. Reasonably well located as the crow flies.

Stayed in April 2024

Lovely location but difficult to get to. The last stretch of road to the hotel is very steep and tuk tuks can only take one person at a time and struggled. Most tuk tuks will not take you. Only book if relatively fit.

Fabulous views and roof top pool was amazing.

King suite with the absolute best view!!! Worth the money

Only slight negative is the sound of bass in the evening from the surrounding bars but that is out of their control and there seemed to be a curfew at around midnight. You will get this at any hotel as Ella is a busy vibrant town full of bars and restaurants! Not so much a dislike but a tip.. if you have any sort of mobility issues or gym isn’t your strong suit, then would recommend making use of the shuttle service offered by the hotel. We walked up from the station with our 80l packs and it was a steep incline for the final 150m.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this hotel (wished we spent more time here on our tour of Sri Lanka - hindsight is a wonderful thing!) - whilst the hotel is a little bit more expensive you certainly get the value associated with it. From the moment we arrived the staff were attentive and welcoming. The room was very clean and had all the things you’d need. The food was very tasty and had a more varied menu for both Sri Lankan food and western style alternatives. The rooftop terrace is a real jewel in the crown of this hotel as the views were breathtaking and the infinity pool and sunbathing deck were perfect. (Pool was slightly chilly getting in but that was a welcome relief from the 36c sun).
