The Cubes Ella

Had a truly wonderful stay at this beautiful hilly, mountain-side hotel. The setting was serene and refreshing, but what stood out most was the exceptional hospitality from every member of the staff warm, attentive, and always ready to help. The breakfast was another highlight, with a wide variety of delicious options that made every morning special. A perfect blend of comfort, scenery, and genuine care. Highly recommended. Please work on your parking though.

Beautiful quiet spot. Staff friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend!

The host at the hotel could literally not have done any more for us. Incredibly helpful, if a little formidable, Primal was an excellent host. The room itself was very nice and the hotel was lovely. Ordinarily the location would be amazing, I’m sure, but currently (July 2025) there is building work going on less than 100 meters from our balcony. We were there over the weekend and it went on til 5pm on both days. It wasn’t particularly noisy but there was no privacy at all. We did not use the balcony that we had been looking forward to and we kept the curtains closed the whole time. I understand that this is not the fault of the host or hotel but I feel we should have been warned and given the option to stay elsewhere. The hotel was 5 minutes to Ella - 500lkr in tuktuk. The host also arranged our transfer to Mirissa with a Yala safari half way. This was amazing and although a little more expensive than gyg it was private which was well worth it. As vegans they were also very accommodating to our dietary requirements.

Best breakfast of our trip. Great service. Beautiful view. Couldn't ask for more.

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.

Sehr schönes Hotel mit stylisch eingerichteten Zimmern und tollem Blick ins Grüne von unserer Terrasse. Das beste sri-lankische Essen auf unserer Reise und sehr zuvorkommendes Personal. Man ist eher im Tal gelegen, sodass man schnell in Ella Town ist (von unserem anderen Hotel oben am Berg hat es 20 min mit dem TukTuk gedauert), aber dennoch sehr ruhig und im Grünen. Sehr empfehlenswert .

Everything at The Cubes was excellent… the peaceful location, away from the bustle of Ella town, the helpful and friendly staff, the room was first class and the food (dinner and breakfast) was fantastic.

We loved our stay at the Cubes. The highlight was the Sri Lankan breakfast and the lovely staff. We would definitely come back

The Cubes is a modern clean hotel with comfortable beds and amazing views. The service provided by the team is fantastic and they will do and arrange anything to make your stay enjoyable. The hotel is out of town and is very quiet. Nice if you want to get away from the buzz of Ella. It’s a short Tuk Tuk ride away, which again the team will organise (500lkr each way). We thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast there as well and would thoroughly recommend the hotel.

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at The Cubes Ella. The rooms are lovely, with Kool artwork and cosy lighting for the evening. The view from my balcony was also amazing. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly, anything you needed help with they were there straight away. The breakfast is delicious, definitely I recommend to try the Sri Lankan and Continental Western options. The hotel is about 8mins from Ella town by Tuk Tuk, the hotel arranged these for you very easily and they appear in moments. Area around the hotel is peaceful and perfect. If I visit Ella again I’ll definitely be staying here.
