Ella Nature Nest

To get to the hotel you need to walk down more than 50 steep steps. As my friend had a broken foot, she could not do that. As a result, we could not check in. The hotel offered us a refund, which I requested through the booking app. However, the hotel refused to refund us, even though they had offered it in the first place.

This experience was awful. While the view is as beautiful as the pictures, the train runs right underneath it. The view is the only good thing about my stay. There is no available food or drink at the location - at all. Not even snacks provided at cost in the room. No water, nothing. There are no linens except for one towel that looked like it was purchased in 1993, and when I asked if I could have another towel as a hand towel, they said no. There was no mattress pad or warm blanket on the bed. The entire room's ceiling was covered with cobwebs. There were holes in the wall where sconces have gone missing, and of the sconces that were there, most were chipped and broken. The light in the restroom had exposed wires and was just a hanging lightbulb. The sink was missing the faucet so I had to use the shower for all of my washing of hands, brushing of teeth, etc. The hot water had to be requested and took 5-10 minutes before warming up. The window was permanently open so at night there were many lizards, ants, etc. crawling all over the bathroom. There were holes in the floor, holes in the restroom door. The only AirCon was a rusty fan that would occasionally sputter really loudly and wake me up at night. There were NO add ons in the room that are standard for hotels: robes, slippers, water, snacks, a safe, a boudoir, etc. If this was a hostel, I wouldn't complain. If this had been significantly cheaper than other Ella hotels, I wouldn't complain. But the fact that it had a 4 star standing on trip.com as a good hotel to stay in is why it was so shockingly bad.

Отель находиться в хорошем месте, прекрасный вид на горы. Единственное очень крутой спуск к нему. Комната чистая и ухоженная, чего нельзя сказать про ванну, есть плесень. Так же завтракали мы в компании обезьян, которые таскали у нас еду. Завтрак скудный.

很有意思的guest house, 女主的服務非常到位，衹要你有需求她會很努力的幫你達到，一到入住就會詢問你要茶或咖啡，斯里蘭卡的咖啡很特別很像咖啡跟茶的結合。房間外的風景真的很好，一片山景且還可以看到瀑布，看景的時候，很多小動物，松鼠就不用説了，而且都很乖很可愛，地理位置也方便，tutu車或車都方便去，從火車站去也衹有1-2公里，去很多景點都可以坐tutu去。

Wunderschön eingerichtetes Zimmer, in einer ruhigen Gegend lädt zum Entspannen, Yoga und meditieren ein. Sehr,sehr nettes Besitzerpaar.

I travel solo and I prefer quiet and peaceful places where I can't hear the noise of the city or the music from the night clubs. So Nature Nest was just perfect for me. I liked everything. The room was light and spacious, a comfortable bad, a big bathroom with hot shower and a nice balcony made my stay cozy and pleasant. And it was so nice to hear the chirping of birds outside in the morning. It took me about 10 minutes to walk down to Ella and maybe a little more to walk up. And every time the walk in the nature was nice and pleasant. Sampat and Nadeeka were really helpful, they gave me many useful tips and good advice about Ella and Sri Lanka and I just had a great time talking with them. The food they cooked was really delicious and also they were so kind to give me a cooking lesson and even a ride when I needed it. I highly recommend the Nature Nest to anyone who values comfort and calmness. And I will be glad to come back if I have such a chance.
