Basil
We absolutely loved staying at Horizon Root Inn. The room was clean and comfortable with a lovely view of their little garden. The host, Ishani, was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed without imposing on our personal space. The breakfast was massive and delicious. We were also impressed with the location, as it was a peaceful 10-minute walk from the center. Ishani even helped us organize transport to Talalla. Highly recommend this beautiful place!
Everything was great! 😊

I absolutely loved the cozy and welcoming atmosphere of the hotel. The decoration had a charming traditional touch that made me feel right at home. The general areas were well-maintained and clean, making it easy for me to navigate around as a senior. , the hotel's convenient location was perfect for someone like me, with only a short 4-minute walk to reach the city center. It was such a relief to have everything so easily accessible.
If I had to suggest one improvement for a better vacation experience for senior people, it would be to have handrails installed in the common areas. As someone who values safety and stability, having handrails would provide extra support and make moving around the hotel even more comfortable for elderly guests.

Garden Oasis: Nestled amidst the lush greenery, our stay at this charming inn felt like being in a serene garden oasis. It was a delightful escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.
Navigation Difficulty: Finding the inn proved to be a bit challenging, as the directions provided were not accurate.

Great hosts who went above and beyond, offering laundry services and even giving us a ride to our next destination. The breakfast was delicious and satisfying. The location was perfect, close to the main attractions in the area. Additionally, we loved the presence of the adorable dogs on the property.
The dogs barked quite a bit, especially at night, which can be common in Sri Lanka due to the large number of stray dogs in the area. The wifi was a bit slow as it relied on 4G.

I stayed at The Horizon Root Inn for a week while exploring the beautiful surroundings of Ella. The owners, a young and lovely couple, made me feel right at home. The peaceful atmosphere, delicious meals, and their kind gesture of taking me to a local festival made my stay unforgettable. The location, though not central, was within walking distance of the main attractions. The spacious room, with a cozy porch, provided a perfect spot to relax amidst nature. I highly recommend this homestay for a memorable and enjoyable experience.
100% Recommend this hotel.

The family running the place was so friendly and helpful, it felt like staying with long-lost relatives. The room was impeccably clean and spacious, and the shower was an absolute delight. The breakfast was a feast, and they even packed me leftovers for my hike. They even gave me a free ride to the bus station when I left. Loved every minute of my stay here!
Absolutely nothing to complain about here. It was just too perfect for my liking.

The rooms at The Horizon Root Inn in Ella are amazing! The balcony with garden views gave me a feeling of peace and tranquility. The fully equipped private bathroom with free toiletries made me feel right at home. Plus, the cozy sofa and private entrance added a touch of luxury. As a guest who values comfort and relaxation, I couldn't have asked for more!
Personally, I wasn't a big fan of the patio in some of the units. But hey, that's just my opinion.

The room at The Horizon Root Inn was amazing! I loved waking up to the beautiful views from my balcony, overlooking the tranquil lake or lush garden. The fully equipped private bathroom with a shower and free toiletries was a convenient and refreshing touch. The cozy sofa and private entrance added a sense of comfort and privacy to my stay. Plus, the option to order room service made me feel pampered and well taken care of. as a longer-term business traveler, I truly enjoyed my stay here.
Personally, I found the patio included in some units a bit unnecessary, but I understand that others may still appreciate it.
