The Sri Lanka Travel Specialists
Mountain Heavens is an eight-room guesthouse with a spectacular outlook across the Sri Lankan hill country. Perched high on a hillock surrounded by mountain peaks and lush vegetation, it has an enviable spot right in front of Ella Gap and Little Adam's Peak. Relax in your private balcony and capture the beautiful sunsets. The Ella bound train goes by the hotel and is interesting to track it as the red steam engine winds itself around the mountains and gradually disappears. Mountain Heavens is terraced with the dinging and lounge areas at the entrance level and rooms located many steps down at different levels. This design provides for breathtaking mountain views from each of the rooms and the public areas. Mountain Heavens was completely refurbished in 2013 and offers bright and airy rooms will all modern facilities; Sri Lankan cuisine and a peaceful setting.

The Deluxe Rooms open out to broad balconies while the Superior Rooms located right at the bottom open out to a small rose garden. Room interiors are bright and airy and furnished with king-size beds and lounge chairs.
