While the location was good, the hotel was a huge disappointment and the room looked nothing like the photos..the bed had 2 small, old and flat pillows. The sheets were poor quality and pilled. No cover other than the top sheet and nor surface to even put my toothbrush down on in the bathroom.,plus the toilet was loose and moved when you sat down. The breakfast was horrible also.,pick another place.lots to choose from.

I live the entertainment but the issue is to reach the hotel. We have to get a another small rental vehicle to get there.

I enjoyed staying at 88th Ella. Staff were extremely attentive and friendly. It was a ten minute walk into town where there were many shops and dining options.

Really good and easy experience, staff was very welcoming and our room was beautiful and clean. The best location if you want to hike to Little Adam's Peak or see the Nine Arches bridge. Short walking to both and easy access to bars and restaurants in Ella town.

Location of the property is good. Walk-able to the main market & right in the hub. The property has contruction going on so the view is a bit shabby. The property gives you a feel of bnb rather than a hotel. There were a few problems at the hotel: 1. Alignment of doors: Balcony doors had issues in opening. Same problem with shower ares doors - the alignment was wrong and can break if not handled properly. 2.Drilling sound all night: This was quite bad and we had issues sleeping peacefully.

Nice location with comfortable and clean room.

The property was not clean and had a bad odour. The Staffs were not clean. The drivers accomodation they provided was just terrible. As per our driver, he just used the wash room and slept in the car because the place was so unclean.

The staff is pleasing and helpful. Property is clean at a prime location. The only downside was there was no WiFi the 2 days I was there. The signal is very poor. Overall good place to stay. Highly recommend.

Staff is friendly and properly is clean and beautiful.

Off the beaten track. No black-out curtains, curtains were dirty. No air or heating, and it was really cold. No extra blankets. Needs cleaning and upgrading. But...the staff was super friendly and helpful. Custom-ordered breakfast was good. Really, really nice restaurant right next door. That helped.

Loved the rooms. They were quite clean and modern. The staff were excellent.

We had a very quick stop in Ella and only stayed one night at 88th Ella however it was perfect for what we needed. A quick walk to the main street for restaurants and many restaurants around the are of the hotel. A quick walk to Adam's Peak and a very spacious room.

I liked our deluxe double room. It was clean & spacious. The bed & the basoc ameneties provided were good. The hotel is very close to main street with good restaurants & pubs.They normally don't provide driver accomodation but gave our driver a place to stay. Breakfast Buffet was good too.I would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to spend few nights in Ella.

The feel from the hotel is that it was opened to early and is now struggling with lots of small problems. The walls have marks, mud and dirt etc in the rooms, the curtains are stains and damp in the bathroom which are very small details which should be picked up by the hotel. Their was a power fault in our room which meant the electricity went off three times during our two night stay, one time I was able to turn it back on myself. The towels are old and tired, although they seemed to be clean. The bathroom has problems with ants and other insects as it has opened vents, being in a rainforest environment is not very practical. Breakfast was very basic with Fruit, Toast and Juice the only item readily available Eggs were possible on request but when it was busy we were not asked. Communication with the staff is an issue as we raised queries on a couple of occasions and nothing came from them until we had to follow them up.

It seems that there are too many rooms for management to give adequate attention to the place. The design of the building has not taken into consideration its surroundings. The rear of the building opens onto forestry and is open plan, however the front of the building has a glass facade. At night time, insects are attracted to the light and get stuck at the glass to the front (in the communal areas) so there are dead insects all over the window ledges (that don’t seem to get cleaned up). We also had a problem with the insects in our room and I spent the 2 nights killing crawling and flying insects. These were large 4 winged flying bugs. Breakfast was adequate - tea,toast, fruit and eggs. But again the hygiene of the breakfast area was not great due to the open plan design. There was a large green stick insect to greet me at the table one morning. I informed management about the insects in the room and was told “don’t worry, they don’t bite” and “maybe turn the light off in your room”. A good quality guesthouse would be recommended over staying at this mid range hotel.

Hotel is set back off the main street making it a quieter area but still an easy walk to all the restaurants. Also easy to walk to the nine arches bridge and little Adams peak . Our room was large and clean, we were on the 3rd floor (there’s no lift) and our room shared a corner balcony. The breakfast was ok, fresh fruit, eggs cooked to order and toast. All the staff were friendly and helpful.

All good nothing to worry at all.really enjoyed...

This is a great choice if you want a new hotel in a central location and it not costing the earth. Not many reviews as it has only recently opened, however unlike earlier review states it is finished. No AC in room but it is well ventilated and was very cool overnight. My room was on the back and overlooked a forest wall so got treated to birdsong during my stay. Very clean and modern throughout and breakfast had a good selection. Lobby needs to be defined a little as looks a little makeshift and room amenities need to be improved (shampoo/shower gel/hairdryer.) overall very happy with my stay.

The building is not complete, maybe in 6 months or so it will be but for now it is a building site! Not sure how Hotels.com allow room to be booked in a building site which has builders, electricians etc in the building on every floor from 8am. Our room was one of the almost completed rooms, still needed a few light fitting (bare wires hanging out the wall). There was a TV but no reception, just a blue screen. No kettle or fridge in the room and their idea of complementary toiletries (as advertised) is 1 small bar of hand soap. The room is a good size and the shower is no bad but there is building dust everywhere. The bathroom has no extractor fan just a grated “window” which can’t be closed so all the building dust sits thick on the windowsill. We had to ask for the sheets to be changed before going to sleep as they hadn’t been. When we asked the front desk if we weren’t aloud to be in the hotel after 8am he enquirer why, we answer because there are builders using electric drills & hammers outside our room. He reply, “oh, do you want me to ask them to stop?” There is a complementary breakfast which again is not bad.

NIce room. Abit bad road leading to the hotel but not the hotel's fault. Towel was abit dirty. Request for a change but new towels were the same condition.
