Great view. Clean and comfortable.
Great view of Little Adam’s Peak and Ella’s Rock (and a waterfall). Pretty comfortable bed. Convenient furniture in the room. Unexpectedly good breakfast. Good service and very nice personel.

Incredible view (sunrise over Little Adams Peak) and friendly smiley and helpful staff. Great family room for 4 of us with balcony. Breakfast options a little limited but no major dramas and Ella town is 3 min walk (downhill at least a little slower back up) and a real backpacker fun town with lots of great food options - no problem sorting dinner.

A stunning hotel! The view from the balcony of little Adams peak, Ella rock and the ella gap is the best view i have ever seen in my life. The rooms are brand new and modern as well as very clean. The staff are very friendly and provide an excellent service. The hotel is in a fantastic location, a 2 minute walk from the Ella strip but it is very high up so it is so quiet and peaceful. No noise from the main road can be heard. Its location is far better than some of the luxury resorts which are 30 minutes away from Ella town. They are also building an infinity pool which will have the above mentioned view. This in my opinion, will make the property 5 stars.

Hotel Onrock
The stay at Hotel Onrock was nice. The hospitality at the hotel was lovely ,with a hot towel and chilled fresh juice served on arrival. The room was nice, inroom decor a little out dated with the tv was too tiny.had to constantly move the mosquito nets out of the way to watch tv. Lol. Gave up and went to sleep. .Beds were comfy. Air-conditioned room. The bathroom a little outdated , hot water worked only sometimes in the day, not too fussed as we were there for a quick shower and out again. Frequent power outage, but expected in a mountain side area , best to use that time for exploring the outdoors. Hotel room was clean. Loved the in room slippers came in handy to walk around with some footwear in the room. Staff helped out with baggage and gave us umbrellas to use as it started raining on our way out for dinner a big thank you there. Staff were very sweet and welcoming. Would stay here again.

We just spent a few nights here. The rooms were clean, modern, and comfortable. Where this hotel really shines is the service. The staff went well out of their way to accommodate us and ensure that we enjoyed our stay. The included breakfast was amazing and provided far more food than we imagined and packed leftovers for us which also became our lunch. On the day we left we were leaving early, when they found out we would be missing breakfast we were offered a packed lunch instead which was also delicious. This hotel exceeded expectations! Would certainly recommend.

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!

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
