Nice room, clean and very accessible to the Main Street. Good view of the waterfall and mountain from our deck but the decks were not private at all!! Easy place to stay!

The view from our room was absolutely amazing and the bedroom was very comfortable. The bathroom on the other hand not the best, quite dark and the shower had quite a bit of black mould stains and needed a deep clean. Steep walk to get down to Ella and back to the hotel again. Would most likely return for the views from the room

Old and tired hotel, minimal breakfast options and hot food was all barely lukewarm. We had no hot water, shower wasn’t even lukewarm it was cold which was an issue that we reported immediately to staff who checked and said that was as good as it gets! Staff were all very pleasant, polite and friendly.

This hotel was exceptional value for money. They have renovated the hotel so it looked different from the pictures at the time of our booking but it has been beautifully done. The service was excellent, the food delicious, the view amazing and lovely touches like slippers available in your room.

We booked a room with garden view and we got one with a horrible view on the back (the front has view on the mountains) where there is no garden whatsoever but the skeleton of a broken building. I cannot believe they sell these rooms at such price with such an ugly view.

Wonderful 3 nights here. Unfortunately, we booked a garden view room so not much to look at and no chairs on the balcony. Springing for the mountain view room would be worth the extra money! Staff and service are excellent. Clean, comfortable and modern decor room, plus the rainfall shower is superb after enduring the heat and humidity! Breakfast is sufficient and good. The property would get my 5 star review if there was some outdoor seating areas, which I believe is in the works. Overall, the friendly and top notch staff make this place stand out. Super easy to walk down to the Main Street for entertainment and abundant eateries. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a fantastic, and quiet place to stay while in Ella.

We paid extra to get a room with a view and air conditioning . The rooms were clean and new , comfortable beds and I loved the space where you could unpack your case . They had nice touches like toothbrush and slippers . The breakfast was good, fruit, eggs and a Sri Lanka delicacy . I loved how it was a short trip to town and the cafes - it was a steep walk . When the Infiniti pool is finished on November it will be stunning . But the view of Ella rock and Lityle Adam’s peak was exceptional. The staff were so willing to help and attentive . Totally recommend staying here

Family Trip made comfortable

We are a family of four, with two small kids. We went on a one week trip to srilanka during which we stayed in three different hotels/towns. Hotel Onrock was definitely the best hotel we stayed in. Most hotels will charge extra for a fourth person but the room size and bed size will be the same as for three people. This hotel had plenty of space in the room. There were two king size beds. Very comfortable. Also, the views from the balcony were excellent. The hotel is situated at the top of a small hill and gives great view of Ella Rock and the water falls on another hill. We tried western breakfast, srilankan dinner and spaghetti for the kids. Everything was excellent. They suited our vegetarian needs. The staff were very warm and friendly. Manager Kavish, restaurant staff Madhan and others. Thank you for making it a great stay for our family! Another plus with the hotel location is that it is very close to the Ella town center and a good strip of road with nice restaurants and shops.

One night family room

We stayed here one night with a family and small kids. Reception is lovely and they have greeted us with cold drink (you need it after a steep climb to get to the hotel!). We had a room with a view of Adams peak , unfortunately we also had a view of water tower and car park and being on the second floor , It was hard to focus on the view behind this all. Rooms are a little tired for what they are charging. And no air- condition , just fans , so if it’s very hot it can be a little tricky. Wi- fi was okay, best in the lobby or restaurant. Breakfast was good. It’s a lot and a lot of choice , either western or Sri Lankan (try Sri Lankan ! It’s good! ) Overall it’s good , but I would suggest they need a little investment into the rooms to charge their prices. PS go to Jade Green restaurant for a dinner. This ladie served us 5different veg currie platter with rice and it was the best we had in all Sri Lanka , I only regretted not taking cooking classes with her. Aubergine curry was our favourite! It also has a small balconies overlooking Ella’s Main Street. Don’t miss it!

Fint, lyst værelse med balkon. Det er meget lyt på værelset ift støj fra gangen. Morgenmad er kedelig og restaurant er ucharmerende. Hotellet ligger i gåafstand til hovedgaden. Fint til enkelt overnatning, hvis man som os kom med toget fra Kandy til Ella

We had an excellent stay in that property (3nights March 2025) It located on the hill so the views from the balcony are spectacular. Still just a few steps from the center of town. Very good breakfast with lots of options. Exceptional stuff, especially the manager who was very informative, helpful and kind. The only down was the bathroom which I'd say needed some renovations and the noise coming from the construction going on at the front of the hotel but I understand at some point they have to do it. I would definitely recommend this hotel!

Wir hatten für eine Nacht das Deluxe-Zimmer mit Gartenblick. Das Zimmer war sehr schön und sauber. Allerdings schauten wir statt in einen Garten auf eine Baustelle!!! Schrecklich… das Frühstück war gut und lecker, allerdings gibt es keine Möglichkeit draußen zu sitzen. Also wer Plastikblumen und Fahrstuhlmusik mag ist hier richtig. Die Lage ist super. Man wohnt ruhig und ist schnell auf der belebten Hauptstraße.

Great for a short stay in Ella - located very centrally although up a hill so difficult for a car to get up - they have an on-site tuk tuk to help with luggage up the hill. Lovely, modern bathroom and comfortable bed. Staff very accommodating.

Ella is all hills - so it’s a 6 minute steep walk to Onrock or 1 minute drive but that’s better than almost every other place. It’s upscale for Ella though short of 4 star luxury. Breakfast excellent. It’s fun and convenient and the 2 of us from USA strongly recommend.

I’m sorry to say we didn’t enjoy our stay here. To start with the good the staff were helpful and friendly. To the bad, the bed and pillows were awful and very uncomfortable. The fittings in the room were poor. The hotel is noisy and has building work all around. We had the worst nights sleep at this hotel and left feeling shattered.

Hotellet ligger på en sidegade til hovedgaden godt placeret på en bakketop med en fremragende udsigt over Ella og naturen omkring. Vores værelset var rummeligt og rent med gode senge, og med en vidunderlig altan, hvor vi kunne nyde udsigten over området. Hotellets personale er meget imødekommende og hjælpsomme, og morgenmadsbuffeten har noget for enhver smag. Vi havde nogle helt fantastiske dage på hotellet, og vi kan varmt anbefale stedet.
