7.6 out of 10, Good, (4 reviews)
"This hotel has up side and quite a bit down sides. The big up side is the breathtaking view and the perfect staff (Gadjen). The down sides are both the fact that in order to go to Ella you must take a tuktuk. The owner taking advantage of the hotel isolation from the city and chrges unusually expensive rate for breakfast, whuch we were not informed in advance. 2 family breakfast cost as much as a night's stay in the hotel."

"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...

Hotel Alta Vista

Hotel Alta Vista

8/10 Good
"We enjoyed the pool which was lovely. The hotel is up a long steep driveway which was fine for us although tough in the heat but if you have impaired mobility it would be worth using a tuk tuk to get up (if they do very short trips??) the room was clean but simple. Bathroom was spacious.. curtains not overly dark but we were happy to get up early. Staff were friendly but no breakfast (off season so fair enough) but plenty of awesome restaurants, cafes and bars and shops down the driveway in the main Street. Great location as the main drag was right at the base of the driveway!!! Plenty of local activities. The tuk tuk drivers are more than happy to take you to waterfalls or the 9 arches bridge and other sights"
