I really liked the view of the bridge. It is in a quiet location far from the city center. We had a clean and tidy room. The breakfast was plentiful. The accommodation provider was at our disposal for everything. A tuk-tuk driver was always available. Transfer to and from the next accommodation.

Best stay ever!! Everything was amazing!! The extremely caring host, the comfortable great room, bed, lighting, amazing view to the train tracks and lush nature. We immediately felt like part of the family. Devaka has been showing us around his beautiful garden. He is generous, warm -hearted- a very great person! He got deep into our hearts. He brings the word "homestay" to another level- never have we felt so at home in such short time!! We got a tea from his own garden every day as well! The food is home cooked and of course also very delicious. It is the best authentic caring beautiful homestay ever in Sri Lanka

We loved the space that our cottage offered us apart from the room itself. It was a lot of open space that allowed us to feel relaxed and be on our own The owner gave us some fantastic recommendations as well for the places to check in Ella, and the staff is absolutely lovely and amazing. They take care of you with all your requests and try to make you super comfortable

We stayed here for 2 nights and were so happy we chose to be slightly out of the main streets of Ella. It was so peaceful at the Spice Lodge and only a short tuk tuk or walk down to the hustle and main restaurants of Ella. The host did try to contact us for our arrival time to help us up the stairs with our bags, but I missed the message. The gorgeous rooms have such fun little touches splashed around the place, the bed, desk, and doors are all made out of pallets and lots of other handmade items make it feel very homey. There's a kettle and fridge and breakfast is served at the time you ask for on the little outdoor table. It is very clean and as there are only two rooms it's very private as well. From here we walked 30 minutes to the top of Little Adams Peak. We also did the walk to the nine arches bridge early one morning.

The Spice Lodge is a special place located within walking distance to Ella center. The family that runs the lodge are the kindest, most helpful people. The breakfast was delicious, and the dinner we had was the best curry we had on our trip. Highly recommended lodging.
