Mount Blue View Guest Inn

We spent a lovely three nights at Ella Mount View. The location was great, around a five minute walk into town along the railway. We booked two rooms, both were lovely, with beautiful views of the mountains from the generous balconies. I would recommend the Sri Lankan breakfast, which comes included with the room. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, including assisting with laundry and our ongoing travel. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Surrounded by beautiful view. Stuff is nice and kind. Room is clean. Their SriLankan breakfast derived with tea was awesome. They also can arrange 1day tour transportation with seasonal price. Credit card is acceptable and they receive USD as well.

The very kind hosts here sorted us out when we arrived, tired and hungry, panicking that they were fully booked and not recognising our names - because it turned out we had come to the wrong guesthouse entirely! Above and beyond friendly, altruistic and practical support.

The views from the room here are just like that on the website. It was great to sit out on the balcony enjoying a beer (available at the hotel) after a days walking. We wish we could have stayed longer. No air conditioning but fans available which was absolutely fine. They prepared an early breakfast for us before our train to Kandy. The town is just a short stroll along the railway track from the main part of town and the station.

A fantastic hotel in Ella situated a short uphill walk from the main town but is well worth it as the hotel is very quiet and has amazing views of Little Adams Peak, Ella Rock and Ella Gap. Rooms are large, clean and the beds are super comfortable with mosquito nets. Breakfast is 11/10! I’d also recommend walking to Nine Arch Bridge and Ella Rock along the train tracks which are only 100m from the hotel. There is also a fantastic viewing/reading platform with panoramic views. The only slight downfall was that our check in was delayed just over an hour but this didn’t affect our stay. I would recommend this to others and would stay here again!

We stayed here for 3 nights and loved it. The view from our room was just amazing. It was an unobstructed view of the valley which is vast. The rooms are beautiful with a 4 poster bed and mosquito net that was positioned to look out over the balcony. The bathroom was large with a walk in shower. The balcony was big with a couple of chairs and beanbags so you could just relax and enjoy the view. We even had monkeys on our balcony one morning which was nice. They weren't aggressive or noisy, they were just passing through. Breakfast was different everyday with a choice of western or traditional. Town was an easy couple of minutes walk into town along the railway track so the location was perfect. The staff were great and always friendly and helpful. My only negative is the mattress was too hard for me but you can't get the perfect mattress that suits everyone. This would not stop me from staying there again. We loved it and would recommend it.
