Traveller reviews

“A delightful retreat nestled in the hills of Ella.”
01 Apr 2025
Every corner of the room was adorned with charming details, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff was always friendly and exceptionally helpful.

“Superb”
15 Feb 2025
The room was absolutely gorgeous! It was very clean, and everything was well furnished. We became a little (too) obsessed with the couch in the room. Breakfast was fantastic. The owners thought of everything - right down to having nail clippers in the room. For the price we paid, it was such a steal. We cannot recommend this place enough. Thank you!

“Great stay at Symbol of Ella”
12 Feb 2025
Quality of the room was excellent. Lots of nice touches such as feature lights. The Indika and his wife were very attentive and provided a delicious breakfast each morning with excellent variety and choice. The outside area where we had our breakfast had lots of space with a table and chairs a d a chair swing to the side which was nice to relax on and for pics. Indika offered helpful additional services like a driver for transfers which we took him up on for a reasonable price. During one transfer we saw the Dyaluma water falls with a guide and other sites which he arranged for us. The location is really good, being a 5 min walk from the main Ella centre, though you have to be reasonably fit and mobile as the path is very rough in parts...but was fine for us. Besides the short cut into town there is the little road up to the main road, where you can also find nice quieter restaurants and walking routes up to little Adam's peak and another to 9 Arches bridge. We had a great time here, thanks to our very attentive hosts!

“Tharaka was a charming host”
30 Jan 2025
This room and accompanying outside space is altogether very special. It is quiet, has views across to Ella Rock, and has an altogether lavish feel about it, as demonstrated by the presence of a private jacuzzi in the bathroom. Tharaka and her lovely little girl, Tavi, are delightful and provide a stunning breakfast on the patio outside the bedroom. It is a short and easy walk into the centre of town where there are many restaurants and cafes to suit all tastes. We cannot recommend this place highly enough.

“Comfortable, relaxing and hospitable with a perfect location.”
28 Jan 2025
The Symbol of Ella is a perfect place to stay in Ella. Tucked away from the noise of the main high street, it is super comfortable and spacious. The room has a huge king bed and a lovely terrace with numerous seating and lighting options. Breakfast is incredible and large. Smoothies are some of the best I’ve ever tasted. And the host is so knowledgeable and helpful. Definitely recommend!

“Very good for either a couple to stay in but also for friends, everyone was lovely”
13 Jan 2025
The hosts were incredibly nice, we got all we needed, they even had a little flashlight so you can find the way in the city. The apartment was very very clean and very well prepared although we booked spontaneously. The shower has good pressure and is hot, the breakfast was the best food I had during my whole Sri Lanka stay (10 days) even better than in restaurants and we had a lot of space there. The balcony has a roof so even if it‘s raining, you can sit outside.

“Tranquil and total relaxation”
08 Jan 2025
Indika and his family were the perfect hosts , it was our first time in Ella and they couldn’t have been more helpful. The place is beautiful photos don’t do it justice and the breakfast was fantastic. Being able to do a short cut down to the town was a bonus and then back to the tranquil house for relaxation. They really had thought of everything down to the finest detail, my husband caught a cold and cough while we were there and wanted a face mask for the taxi and sure enough there was a box of masks on the shelf!

“Superb”
06 Jan 2025
Very nice and clean room. They were on top of every little detail (e.g., they had an emergency kit, a flashlight, etc.). Breakfast was great and staff was very nice.

“Best stay and most hospitable family in Ella”
03 Jan 2025
This hotel/home stay is the best of Ella. First of all Indika and his family are the nicest people/family we met along the way. They are so welcoming and make sure that your stay is super comfortable. The room is so clean, good bed, and amazing shower. In the morning they serve an amazing breakfast. He also helped us with transport for the remaining days of holiday. I would come back for sure and recommend this place to friends.
