Welcome to the Hive Ella Hostel, a newly renovated hostel in the center of Ella. Our Hostel offers clean and comfortable private/ dorm rooms in the heart of Ella. All rooms are spacious and fitted with fan and bathrooms come with hot water. All dormitory beds are super comfy and come with a safety locker, reading light and power socket. We serve one of the best breakfasts in Ella and there is tea and coffee available for free throughout the day.
Our Hostel has a comfy chill area to meet other travelers and you can relax on couches and cozy beanbags. We also organize family dinners, cooking classes and movie nights.

HOW TO GET HERE:
As we don't have big signs just yet, it's a tiny bit tricky to find us. If you have any troubles finding us, please call and we will come and pick you up :)

Navigate to the Wellawaya bus halt or the Oak Ray Ella Gap Hotel. Between the Wellawaya bus halt and the Oak Ray Ella Gap Hotel, you will find a small sign with ELLA HIVE. Walk down the path and you will soon encounter stairs. Keep going, you will soon find another sign, guiding you to the hostel. From the bus halt it should only take 5 minutes to walk up.
If you get lost, please call us and we will come and find you!
See you soon :)

The Hostel is well located with a 5 minutes hike from the bus stand, less than 5 minutes to the down town with many bars, cafés and chill places to hang around. The Ella railway station is only a 10-minute walk from the hostel.

Very cozy hostel with a social and open-hearted vibe. There is a common chat where staff organize daily activities, which was popular. Also pleasant rooms and perhaps the nicest bed I slept in during my 3 week trip. Highly recommended!

It absolutely deserves the award for being the best new hostel in Asia. Everything is amazing, bed is very comfortable, it’s very clean, the staff and the vibe is amazing. It’s absolutely worth it to climb the staircase to reach the hostel, which in my opinion has the best location in Ella, to reach the city center, the bus stop and main attractions like waterfalls etc. easily. Thank you for the great time!🙏🫶

Hive was a lovely stop on our Sri Lankan tour! the owner is very friendly and helpful and always organising activities for the guests. the hostel has a chill friendly vibe and we met lots of very nice people. bonfire night was a very cute event. bathroom in the private room could have been cleaner but otherwise would definitely recommend!
