At first our hotel confirmation was not found. After a few minutes we got our rooms. The porter was very nice.

Stunning hotel set high in the mountains offering amazing views. Staff were exceptionally polite and attentive. Room was reasonable size and offered balcony with incredible view over pool and mountains. Breakfast was very good and evening meal was good. The hotel is a little dated and disconnected but the vast pool, stunning views and great staff more than make up for its decor. They also helped book rail tickets which were proving a challenge so thank you.

This hotel is basic. No duvet in the room, apparently you have to request one. Nice welcome tea and some local snacks while waiting to check in but beware there are still mosquitoes around despite the cooler temperature. I got bitten twice whilst waiting to check in. I was put on the ground floor with a view of the car park which was disappointing given the incredible views on offer of Ella from the rooms higher up. They have a swimming pool from what I can tell is a bit cold! The omelette at breakfast was good and they found me some green tea when I asked for it. The buffet at dinner was ok and included slices of pizza. Staff were friendly and helpful. All in all I imagine this hotel offers great views but it is way too far out from the centre of Ella so if you plan to go into town in the evening you’re looking at paying around 5,000 rupees for a taxi to take you, wait there for you and bring you back. So unless you’re there for a specific reason I’d stay closer to all the shops and bars in town.

set menu took 2+ to be served. Even on requesting to see the manager several times, no one came to speak to us. We made an international call to their landline & even then we didn't see the manager. Finally when we went down to reception & demanded to see the GM/Manager, a sheepish Manager says.. we know your food was delayed but we didn't come to meet you as your food was served by then. Ridiculous excuses after excuses! Moi Ella has ruined our experience of being in beautiful Ella where we chose to spend New Years Day It's a shame but we were booked by Ceylon Empire

This hotel is located some 15km from Ella town centre. Fine if you have transportation, awesome if you enjoy the calls of Mother Nature. No so, if the above two points don't apply to you. Other than the above, the staff are friendly, welcoming and extremely helpful. They took pains to explain where every facility was located in the hotel. As for the rooms, you get a large room. Yes, it's a rather large room, clean, comfortable and a lovely balcony to sit and relax. As the hotel is located on a hill, the weather is cooler than most areas in the Ella region, truly a great place to relax and unwind. The negative side is that the walls and floors are transparent. So if you have noisy neighbours like we had, their incessant talking, dragging of furniture and even footsteps kept us awake till the early hours of the morning. For this, this was a downside. Surely, the highlight of our stay is the restaurant food. Be it an Ala carte mea; order, or the buffet breakfast, the food is truly excellent. I'd say one of the best meals in the entire 9-day of our stay in Sri Lanka

Hotel Review: MOI by Ella I recently stayed at MOI by Ella, and while the staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, the overall experience was disappointing and far from what I expected. The lack of soundproofing was a major issue. We could hear everything from the neighboring rooms, including running tap water and conversations, which made it difficult to relax. The situation was even worse during the weekend when a DJ played loud music, dogs barked throughout the night, and the general noise level made sleeping nearly impossible. The family room we booked was also underwhelming, with a view of a concrete wall that felt claustrophobic. Although the receptionist mentioned we had been upgraded to a family room with a kitchen, the design of the room was still lacking—there was no proper seating for four people. Adding to the frustration, the cleanliness was questionable. Finding someone’s extension eyelashes in the bathroom made it clear the room hadn’t been cleaned properly, which was unacceptable for the price we paid. At $350 per night without breakfast, the stay was far too expensive for the quality of the experience. MOI by Ella is highly overrated, and it failed to deliver the quiet, relaxing atmosphere it advertises. I cannot recommend staying here, especially on weekends.

One of the best places I’ve stayed at! Very cozy and quiet with access to the roof where I met two amazing sunrises. The staff is beyond amazing! Very attentive and friendly, they solve any request within a couple of minutes. I also got to try local breakfast and dinner. They were really good, and the staff patiently explained the proper way of eating everything. Overall, I enjoyed staying here for two nights a lot. Wish I could’ve stayed longer. Highly recommend! Special thanks to Jerry, Sahiru, Tarindu, Shara and everyone else, whose names I unfortunately didn’t learn. Apologies if I misspelled them!

Przepiekna okolica cudowny bssen i to na tyle. Jedzenie ok ale niezmiennie menu. Pokoje moze ok ale pomylili nasz pokój z dwoma łóżkami i dostaliśmy mały pokój z jednym łóżkiem i dostawką i bylo im tylko przykro. Nic w zamian 😁 hotelowi dalbym 3 kropki jednak za fatalna pomyłkę i brak rekompensaty tylko dwie.
