"The views from the balcony are unbelievable and can watch the train go past. Rooms were clean, spacious, modern and all the essentials were provided. The fridge was stocked with coke, water, beers all for free. Dina was the best host, could not do enough for us and made our time very special there, constantly giving us lifts into the town when needed as was 20 minute drive into town. He even waited until 1am one night to take us back home after a night out. Would highly recommend this place. "

"I have stayed in many hotels around the world and Wishing Tree Boutique and Resort ranks right at the top. The views are unreal and impossible to recreate. Waking up to that scenery alone makes the stay special. The staff are outstanding. Warm, welcoming and genuinely happy. Service was spot on throughout, attentive when needed but never intrusive.

Ella

"We stayed 4 nights at Walaa Kulu, and it was nothing short of exceptional. The villa is truly luxurious, beautifully furnished, and designed to take full advantage of the stunning panoramic views that surround it. Every room offers a breathtaking outlook — the kind that photos simply cannot capture. The heated pool overlooking the lush green hills was an absolute highlight, allowing us to enjoy a relaxing evening swim even when the air cooled down. What really made our stay unforgettable was...

Onrock Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I was here for one night with my family. The staff was excellent particularly the front desk staff and Supun. Everyone gave us a warm welcome and answered our questions. Supun in particular was very patient and helpful with my elderly parents . The hotel is also located in the heart of Ella ‘s hustle and bustle and we had great views of the sunset and sunrise. Breakfast was also great . A variety to choose from. Would come back here next time I visit Ella ."

Belmount Ella

4/10 Poor

"The view was absolutely amazing, but unfortunately the hotel booster pump was directly above our room, & could hear it running all night. The booster pump noise was completed by the smell of the septic tank coming through the bathroom vent, adding to the negative experience of the hotel. The hard mattress and the lack of bedding was the icing on the cake. You’ll probably want to find different accommodation. "

Te Dalu Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

The rooms are clean, contemporary, and very comfortable, and the food offers a fresh take on traditional dishes. What really makes the stay special is the staff — they are incredibly friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. Although the hotel is just a short 5-minute tuk-tuk drive from the centre of Ella, it feels peacefully tucked away in nature. It’s the perfect spot if you want to enjoy the stunning scenery of Sri Lanka while still being conveniently close to the town. A beautiful and relaxing place to stay that I would highly recommend."

Ella Alpine Resort

8/10 Good

"The room was nice and clean and the staff were really helpful and friendly. The only real downside was the location which was up at the top of a very steep road which a lot less accessible than portrayed. However, the views from the property were amazing and it was nice to be away from the crazy traffic and noise of Ella town. "

Wishing Tree Boutique Resort Haputale

10/10 Excellent

He is attentive, present and clearly takes real pride in the experience of every guest. Nothing was too much trouble and he went above and beyond to make sure everything ran perfectly. The food was excellent. Authentic Sri Lankan dishes were outstanding and the chef’s twists on European classics worked very well. I also did the hotel’s three hour walking tour which was fantastic. Beautiful scenery, local nature, temples and even seeing pottery being made. A really memorable experience. Rooms were comfortable, clean and well thought out and the whole place feels calm, personal and high quality. I would absolutely stay again."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Lemastota?

The best area to stay in Lemastota is generally within the central area around the town itself, particularly along the main roads leading to attractions like Ravana Falls and Ella Rock.

This central region offers a good balance of accessibility to key sights and local amenities. You'll find guesthouses and hotels located among tea plantations and jungle, often with stunning views of the surrounding mountains and valleys. The main street through Lemastota, often referred to as the Badulla-Bandarawela Road, is where many local eateries and shops are located.

Couples looking for a romantic escape will appreciate the more secluded guesthouses a little off the main road. These often feature private balconies with panoramic views, superb for enjoying a cup of Ceylon tea while watching the sunrise over the hills. They provide a tranquil base for exploring the area's natural beauty, like the Nine Arch Bridge, without being too far from dining options.

For travellers keen on hiking and exploring the natural wonders, staying closer to the paths leading to Ella Rock or Little Adam's Peak is a practical choice. There are guesthouses strategically located to offer easier access to these popular trails, allowing for early morning starts or relaxing returns after a day of adventure.

When is the best time to go to Lemastota?

The best time to visit Lemastota is during the dry season, which runs from January to March and from July to September.

During these months, you'll experience less rainfall and plenty of sunshine, making it ideal for exploring the tea plantations and enjoying outdoor activities. The weather is generally warm but comfortable, great for leisurely strolls through the countryside or visiting local attractions.

For those looking to hike or engage in outdoor adventures, these periods offer the clearest skies and most stable conditions. You'll find it easier to navigate the trails and enjoy panoramic views without the interruption of heavy downpours.

If you're interested in the tea-picking season, which often coincides with higher production, the early part of the year (January-March) is particularly good.
