Poomaz Peace Palace - Ella

Just off the main bar and restaurant street, is this simple home stay. It's quiet at night and a good place to relax and get some sleep as you pass through Ella. It is at the top of a very steep hill.

Got the suite with four beds, very spacious and in a good location away from the loud music but close enough to walk to all the restaurants and bars.

Luxury in Ella This place is incredible! We were a little worried when our driver initially dropped us off with our bags at the bottom of the steep road and said the road was too tight for the minivan to get through. We walked a little further than we should have, but we found the hotel and as we were escorted to our room our mouths dropped. The room is incredible! We were 3 people, but this place was clearly meant for 6. Two king beds on either side of a little staircase that took you up to 2 single beds (loft style). This place would be perfect for friends or a family with kids. We almost wanted to cancel the rest of our trip and stay longer. The room itself has a seating area, a kitchenette, a small fridge. The bathroom is provided with shower gel and shampoo (these are luxuries that are not provided in all hotels in Sri Lanka). The set up feels more like a guesthouse than a hotel room. The location is wonderfully located next to all the restaurants and the shopping. We took a walk in the evening and had dinner at Chill Cafe (which was recommended to us twice by locals in different cities). Definitely can't wait to go back to Poomaz Peace Palace.

Beautiful place to stay in Ella! Amazing, family-run place. We had a beautiful view of the mountain and they made us a delicious breakfast every morning. The staff were so friendly and accomodating. The rooms are very comfortable and spacious. There is a very steep hill which can be hard if you are bringing yo your own luggage but worth it for the views.

Charming guesthouse Very charming little guesthouse right in Ella town but not on the main street. Nice breakfast served on the balcony. Hot water ran out on our first night but not on the second.

Very welcoming host who was helpful throughout our stay. Hot shower. Delicious breakfast for $5 each, with an array of items. Excellent value for money.
