Lovely hotel with great staff and a beautiful location. The breakfast was excellent - possibly the best chicken curry I’ve had in Sri Lanka. The only downside is that is quite far from the centre of Ella - and getting a Tuk-Tuk through PickMe was almost impossible - meaning I had to pay at least twice as much to flag one down.

6/10 Good

It’s a bit hard to get to. Narrow and steep road. And then at the front, it’s a steep and narrow stairs up to the reception. They were helpful in getting our bags and stuff but it was still a bit messy. The views are amazing. But room was not well maintained. WiFi was spotty and there was mold in the bathrooom. Nonetheless the staff is so helpful and friendly. We really loved the view and breakfast was great too!

Very friendly staff, good sized room with all facilities. Good views (a bit of construction but not bad). Breakfast varied and fresh. A short (500SLR) Tuk-Tuk ride to the centre of town.

Well run small hotel. The room was large, adequately equipped and the AC was fine. Dinner and breakfast in the cafe/restauarnt was very good - maybe the best ‘Sri Lanka Curry and rice’ I had during my touring holiday. All the staff were really friendly and happy to carry my bags up the couple of flight of stairs. All in all, a good hotel and would recommend

We enjoyed our stay at The Cubes, it was a few minutes out of Ella which meant it was a peaceful escape from the bustling town and an easy tuk tuk ride into town. The scenery and views around the hotel were lovely. Service was helpful and friendly and we enjoyed the breakfast. Our room was large and the bed very comfortable with a lovely balcony.
