"Peaceful surroundings overlooking the spectacular Sri Lankan countryside. The staff were very friendly & helpful. Highly recommended if you want tranquility "
"We enjoyed the Melheim Hotel very much. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We would have liked to have spent more time at this Hotel. Great views and ambience."
"Hôtes incroyablement dévoués et accueillants. Toujours prêts à rendre service et à faire en sorte de rendre notre séjour plus agréable. Plusieurs suggestions pour découvrir leur coin de pays. Endroit calme et agréable. Chambres et parties communes propres. Par contre, chambres assez humides, mais j'ai l'impression que c'est une caractéristique commune à Haputale."
"We did not stay here! They would not check us in even though I showed them we had paid on Expedia. They wanted cash from us. They said Expedia doesn’t pay them and they wanted us to pay again. We didn’t because the place looked dirty and unfinished. We left. Now I’m trying to get my money back from Expedia. i got through on chat, Bupindher said someone from Expedia service would email me but they have not."
"THE BEST stuff we have ever had. Couldn’t wish for more care and service. Amazing location, food, views, bedding. One of the best stays in my life (and I had A LOT).
Highly recommend.
We stayed in the biggest room and were beyond happy "
"We had a wonderful stay at Villa Nalanda. Visaka is an amazing host and provided us with everything we needed. All our meals were home-cooked and delicious, the view over the mountains was just incredible, and her team is so lovely. Would definitely stay again!"
"This property is still under construction. We got a newly built room with a great view. Staff is very helpful. Food is great. Overall we had a great time there"
"Stayed for 4 nights on the off chance we would have to curfew following the election date but glad we had the extra time here.
The hotel has been closed for renovation but has recent opened 1.5 months and I could not fault it!
The rooms are beautifully designed, lots of space, beautiful Mountain View’s (we had one of the sunrise view rooms but I understand they also have sunset views too) and all amenities included.
Decor around the accommodation itself are also beautiful. Very well designed...
"Old world charm! Though some modernization needed I hope new owners will do it thoughtfully so that it will not take away thr historical value of the hotel. "
"Stayed in Ella in April and decided to spend the night at this property because of the views.
The views didn’t disappoint, especially watching the sunrise from our very own balcony!
The room looked ok but clearly a bit tired. Bed and pillows were hard, bathroom was clean but old"

"Simply breathtaking hotel with rooms/views to die for.
One of the best hotels in Sri Lanka.
So pleased we managed to get rooms here.
The staff and the food are also absolutely top notch.
Can’t recommend highly enough."
"The view was amazing at Belmont it was absolutely breath taking and the rooms and washrooms were very clean. The breakfast was good as well. The only caution to look out for it there’s bugs that come in the room at night through the door to the balcony if there’s so hidden spaces, but if u stuff a bag or something in those spaces it should be okay. "
"This property is incredibly situated with an amazing view down Ella Gap. The rooms are built into the side of the hill, with wooden doors and windows openingnupmon the view - so tjink more like a challet (or lodge!) than fancynjotel room. You will need your mosquito repellant. The staff are really lovely and can't do enough for you, helping to make plans for hikes, arranging transport, doing any washing you have- they are really spot on. The hotel is up Waterfall Road, which is essentialy a bumpy track, but Tuk Tuks can get up there easily enough. There is a little shortcut into town, walking along the railway (perfectly normal in Sri Lanka and if a train comes, you could easily outrun it!), then, especially at night, best to junp in a Tuk Tuk back up to the Alpine Lodge. It's a very relaxing place, easy to access hiking routes, and a world away from downtown Ella whoch is very touristy. I hoghly recommend a few nights here. "
"Wow—best view on town! When I got to the property, I felt like “I don’t even need to go hiking, this view beats anything I could hike to.” You can literally see and hear a waterfall from the balcony! Super nice staff, good food, including a particularly nice breakfast spread. A little bit of a pain to hike up there from town, but doable in 10 minutes or a very short tuktuk. Room was perfectly good. Only quibble was that the walls (even though it was clear they had been padded) were very thin."
