The hotel is situated on a steep hill, which offers stunning views but can be challenging to navigate. The rooms are quite basic, and while the cleanliness was commendable, I found the lack of Wi-Fi in the rooms very inconvenient. Breakfast options were limited, and it seemed the staff struggled to keep up during peak dining hours. Overall, it's decent for a short stay if you prioritize location over amenities.

I had a wonderful stay in Ella at this hotel, which is nestled in the heart of the bustling town. The rooms offered stunning hillside views and were clean and comfortable, though the climb to the hotel is a bit steep. The staff were exceptionally accommodating, making for a pleasant experience. On the downside, breakfast choices were limited, and Wi-Fi was slow in the rooms.

The hotel is situated in a vibrant area of Ella, making it an ideal spot for exploring local eateries and attractions. The rooms offer clean accommodations with scenic views, perfect for unwinding after a day of hiking. However, the steep climb to the hotel is a bit challenging, especially after a long day, and some room features could use improvement. Overall, it's a decent place to stay at a reasonable price.

The facilities are average; there's no lift which makes it cumbersome to access the upper floors, and there are some visible wires in the room.

I recently stayed at Hotel Alta Vista in Ella and had an overall great experience. The stunning views from my room were a definite highlight, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure my comfort. However, the steep incline to access the hotel might be challenging for some, and the absence of a refrigerator in the room was a minor inconvenience.
