    The quadruple room was well-equipped with coffee/tea making facilities, a cozy seating area, and a writing table. Breakfast offered a generous selection that catered to everyone's tastes. The location is perfect for exploring the beautiful area, conveniently near Uda Walawe National Park and accessible tuk-tuks from early morning.

    Super chill spot to hang out and chat, mind-blowing Sri Lankan breakfast and rice and curry dinner made by Santa , plus the owner's lemon and chocolate cake is jaw-dropping. The owner is a cool dude who gives awesome tips. The location is tucked away from the main street, so it's peaceful, yet only a quick 5-minute walk to the center. close to small Adam's Peak and the 9-arch bridge. We loved it so much that we stayed an extra night. Highly recommend!

    I had an amazing stay at this charming hotel nestled in nature. The cabins were cozy and surrounded by lush greenery, giving you the feeling of being in a peaceful forest. The Sri Lankan curries served here were absolutely delicious, and the breakfast was also great. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and super friendly. Plus, the location was convenient, just a short walk to the main street of Ella and the train station. I highly recommend staying at this hidden gem.

    The staff at Little Folly were absolutely incredible, going above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. Santa deserves a special shoutout for his exceptional service and mouthwatering food. The bamboo wood cabins were adorable and we slept like babies surrounded by lush greenery. The owners and staff were attentive, friendly, and filled with local knowledge. The Sri Lankan curries were out of this world and the breakfast was delicious. The location was peaceful, away from the hustle and bustle but still conveniently close to town. The owners even offered cooking lessons! We were impressed with the prompt communication and smooth check-in process. Our room was spacious with a lovely patio and great views. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom had hot water. The hotel was well-situated and offered free Wi-Fi, off-site car park, luggage storage, and a range of amenities like a restaurant, coffee shop. We also appreciated the airport shuttle service and the steam room and spa facilities. Little Folly provided great value for money and was a fantastic choice for a budget guesthouse. We highly recommend it!

    We had a fantastic stay! The hotel is conveniently located just a short walk away from bars, restaurants, and shops. It is also in a great spot for exploring the beautiful surroundings, including the nine arches bridge and Little Adams Peak. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and were incredibly helpful throughout our stay. They even assisted us when our child had an accident and needed hospital treatment. The food was delicious and the hotel had a relaxed and friendly vibe.

    Absolutely nothing.

    Stayed at a charming place with a "unique" design. Enjoyed the free Wi-Fi and private parking. Rented a bike and explored the area. Exciting times!

    Loved the beautiful dust-covered cabin walls. Made my mornings delightful with the soothing sound of buses and tuk-tuks.
