Magical peaceful space set about 2k from the city of Ella, with a short tuck tuck ride to the city centre. A family run business who was so kind and nice. A big, healthy breakfast. A large double room with a big private balcony. Really comfortable bed. Would highly recommend for people who don't want to be in the madness and loudness of Ella. The owner arranged everything for us. He even recommended a lovely restaurant and dropped us to the door.

Very friendly staff, a unique spot in the upper hills with a breathtaking view, tasty food, a variety of activities available. The activity we did with Eranda was outstanding. He knows everything about the nature and animals around, he was attentive and made sure that we were happy during our whole stay. The jeep ride to the hotel is extra special!!!

Amazing host , room and location! Host was very nice, he prepared for us a great breakfast. We were so full we didn't feel the need to have lunch after. The room is very clean and has a lot of charm . The bathroom is spacious and clean. We slept really well since the location is very peaceful but still on a walking distance to all best nightlife. AC and insect repellent were a great plus. Best value for many ! Exceeded our expectation and we will definitely come back again!

A gorgeous place managed by a tremendous team of excellent people. The A4 which leads to Living Heritage Koslanda is the perfect introduction to the property - jungle and waterfalls... Arriving at the gates we were welcomed by Johnson, the ever present manager, and guided to a gorgeous reception pavillion with fabulous views of the surrounding hills and dense forests. Our suite was overwhelming. Rather than a grand room, we were presented with a courtyard house built in the traditional Sri Lankan style including not only an outdoor shower, but an amazing jaccuzi, where water runs from an ancient granite water spout. This place must be experienced as words alone could never do it justice. Living Heritage Koslanda is one big experience! Another surprise was the beautiful garden in particular the infinity pool . The materials used everywhere throughout Liv. Heritage Koslanda are hand cut stone, local wood (massive beams), old terracotta roof tiles and finely polished cement floors. Most times we felt like being in an ancient temple complex in the jungle. We cannot rave enough about the place and its staff. We feel priveleged to have had the opportunity to stay in this jewel of a place. Johnson gave us a most interesting tour through their herb, veggie and fruit garden down to a small temple behind which is a small cow shed with what must be Sri Lanka's happiest 4 cows. Their only purpose is to give manure, which is used to feed the garden soil. Composted food scraps are recycled into liquid fertilizer, grey water is collected for watering during dry spells. What stands out above all is the engaging and caring service by every member of the staff as exemplified by Johnson's leadership. Don't miss out on the many offerings by the chef. As Kumar, the chief butler, so aptly said "just eat slowly, then you can eat more". He is absolutely right. Food was delicious and beautifully presented.

We stayed in one of the lower level rooms, which offered more privacy. The upper level had better views but were smelling a bit stale, so they let us pick the ground floor ones. Beautiful rooms, with all necessary amenities, high quality bedding, quiet and peaceful sleep. Food was great, we had our dinners at the hotel. But the biggest positive of this hotel was the service. Staff is amazing, very polite, well trained, and really going out of their way to make you feel welcome. Thank you! Also, to mention that this was the only hotel that offered accommodation to our driver which was great for him.

We had a fantastic stay – this is SUCH a lovely place. The rooms a lovely – sparkling clean, comfortable and the views from the various terraces are astounding. We received a warm welcome from the couple who own and run the place, we loved the relaxed atmosphere and felt very much at home. The owner speaks good English and knows all there is about the area and will help you with your plans. We really loved being here, and in Haputale, which was a lovely, calm alternative to Ella. We recommend this place without hesitation and will come back to stay if we do get the chance – I hope we will 😊

We had an amazing stay at The Pinnacle Ella! The view from the hotel is absolutely breathtaking, with sweeping vistas of the surrounding mountains that make it feel like you're in paradise. The room was spacious, comfortable, and impeccably clean, offering a perfect retreat after a day of exploring. As for the breakfast, it was a delicious spread with a variety of fresh options to start the day right. I highly recommend The Pinnacle Ella to anyone looking for a peaceful and scenic getaway. It truly exceeded our expectations!

From the moment of check in to check out, I had a wonderful stay at orient hotel. The staff were extremely friendly and professional and the food was delicious. Special mention must be made to the GM Mr. Chandima who was always on the scene and attentive to our needs. We were also provided with a Trek to Ella Rock accompanied by hotel staff and a packed hotel lunch which was an incredible experience I would highly recommend. Overall was a great visit and will definitely be staying here again next time I visit.

One of our favourite places in SL, had much more of a town feel. It is touristy but just means lots of place to eat. The hikes are amazing and were one of our favourite parts of our trip. Beware the scammers when going up Ella rock - it's a little confusing to find the path and locals will try to lead you away from the main path to 'guide' you

My trip to Bandarawela was a memorable experience, combining the town's quaint charm, stunning natural landscapes, and the welcoming atmosphere of the local community. The food in Bandarawela offers a delightful mix of traditional Sri Lankan cuisine and fresh local produce. Highlights include spicy curries, coconut-based dishes, and an array of tropical fruits, all reflecting the region's rich culinary heritage.

Badulla is an up and coming tourist destination. It has much to offer but for now is excellent for those wishing to spend time in the hills and and away from the razzmatazz of Ella or the tried and tested Nuwara Eliya.

Ella is a wonderful place to explore. It’s very clean and has breathtaking views everywhere. The people are kind, the local food is amazing, and it’s perfect for families, friends, or groups. With easy access to Nine Arches Bridge, Little Adam’s Peak, Ella Rock, and tea plantations, it’s an ideal base for a week of sightseeing and adventure.

Haputale is a breathtaking hill town surrounded by lush tea estates and misty mountains. We stayed at Benito Bungalow by The Serendipity Collection, where the in-house chef prepared fresh and delicious meals every day. The cool climate, scenic views, and peaceful setting made it the perfect place to unwind. It’s quieter and less touristy than other hill stations, which adds to its charm. A true hidden gem in Sri Lanka!

Even though My stay in Badulla was too short to visit all the beautiful places, the trip to Dunhida waterfall was a great experience, especially for kids. The path to Dunhida might be difficult for someone. I believe it was a very nice experience to walk through the jungle. Once you see the waterfall, you will forget all the tiredness.
