Tomorrowland Hostel Ella

I don’t often leave a review but the hospitality here warranted a 5 star. The staff were very helpful and were willing to help with any needs.

I’ve traveled for 9 months and have stayed in many hostels. This hostel has had the best hospitality and service of any place ive ever stayed at. Owner is a great conversationalist. The view is also wonderful

Lovely hostel, great view and the best staff. Breakfast was amazing and the staff went above and beyond to help. Wpuld definitely stay again

The place is nice, but is quite far from the center. Also that was a misunderstanding episode with the reception. As the place is far and was Friday night, I asked at the reception if it was easy to get a Tuk Tuk back to the hostel. The answer was very rude, asking me back if I didn’t hear the news about the war and the petroleum crises (what that was nothing to do with my question!). As a host, I felt so so disrespected . So I just left day after.

Great staff, very accommodating just slightly further out than expected

Nice chilled spot, is a little bit out of the way from the main town but the driver from the hostel will drop you off and pick you up from any location. They’ll take you where you want to go any time during the day. Hospitality is great and all the staff are lovely and the owner is a top bloke got some jokes.

nice hostel. staff are superfriendly and helpful. little outside ella but they have a free taxi service into town and around ella.

Amazing It’s located on top of a mountain, about 15–20 minutes from the city—perfect if you want to relax and enjoy stunning views.The host is an incredible guy with great stories, definitely worth sitting and chatting with him. He’s very welcoming and helpful.They also offer free pick-up and drop-off to the city and train station, which is a big plus. The food is delicious, the place is very clean, and the atmosphere is super social with bonfires at night.Highly recommended. unique and ...

One of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed at!! The sunrise view is spectacular. And the free tour took me everywhere I wanted to see in Ella!! Grateful for the lovely staff who made everyday exciting and comfortable :)

Tomorrowland was an absolute dream of a hostel! The owner is great, and his staff is just amazing! Definitely take the tour that they offer as well, as it was a ton of fun. This was the first hostel with my one friend where he said “So this is why you stay in hostels”!

Ho veramente amato questo posto. Lo staff è meraviglioso, la posizione incredibile è un buon prezzo. MA CHE ATMOSFERA

Visually impressive Goa-inspired design and a well-thought-out concept, with reliable hot showers and a useful shuttle service. However, the remote location makes getting around inconvenient, and the atmosphere during our stay felt quiet and unsocial. Dorm conditions were disappointing: too few outlets, loud rain noise from the metal roof, and cold nights. Considering the high price, the value felt poor. Overall, our experience did not match the very positive reviews.

Such a lovely stay at Tomorrowland! The staff were just so kind and helpful- could not have asked for better service from them honestly:) Great food, comfy beds, and a really nice overall vibe. Felt really good to be just outside of the city as well with a stunning view- and easy to arrange getting to attractions!

Die Unterkunft ist heruntergekommen, nur 2 schmutzige Toiletten/Duschen, unbequeme Matratzen, kaputte Decken. Nachts extrem kalt, kaum Schlaf wegen Lärm. Keine Schließfächer, kein WLAN, Shuttle oft verweigert, Angebote kaum umgesetzt. Lage weit außerhalb. Mitarbeiter verhalten sich seltsam, teils im Aufenthaltsraum schlafend. Wir fühlten uns alle aus dem Hostel besonders als Frau sehr unwohl, viele sind früher abgereist.

A unique little place with a lot of soul. The owner is absolutely amazing and makes sure you’re taken care of no matter what.

Made the best friends, extended because of that! Because of the Location make sure to get a Number of a driver, we took the Bus which is also very easy, and the driver from the Hostel gave us some free rides as well. Sometimes you get recommendations for Trips from them so be aware that they only Take you to These locations and not wherever you want. Rooms can get quite cold at Night an warm in the Morning but u usually don’t stay there too long anyways.

Mixed review here, I had been highly recommended this hostel by another group who said it was there favourite hostel in Sri Lanka, I found it very quiet however and the location was awkward although they do offer free pick rides during the day in there van. Staff were very helpful. I think this hostel really depends who’s there and what the atmosphere is like.

Sadly, the high rating and great photos set expectations far higher than this hostel delivers. Among guests, it became a running joke that this place was a “must-see” purely because of how utterly sh*t it is. It’s ridiculously far from Ella town. They claim to offer rides, but the owner gets angry when you actually try to arrange leaving the hostel. Bedroom doors and windows don’t close properly, there’s no pool as advertised, and overall the place feels poorly maintained and misleadin...

Truly amazing hostel, Udhaya was so kind and welcoming we stayed up all night exchanging stories listening to music. Having stayed in 100+ hostels I can confirm that Tomorrowland Ella was one of my favourites. Beautiful open hut with the best views of the mountain range. Chill days with free activities and tours. Absolutely 10/10 and would recommend to everyone visiting Ella.

Loved my stay here! Owner is amazing and so so so accomodating. They help driving you to different sights which is so nice. Food was really good! A really chill vibe at the hostel, met so many amazing people during my stay. Would love to come back one day!
