Poomaz Peace Palace - Ella

Enjoy food, nice place

If a place has a 4.9 rating on Google Maps, it’s clear they’re doing something right – and that’s certainly true for Poomaz Peace Palace. This stellar reputation is a reflection of the owner’s dedication and commitment to his guests. From the moment we booked until the time we checked out, the experience was seamless. The owner was extremely prompt in his responses and provided detailed information about Ella, the weather, and local recommendations, ensuring we were well-prepared for our stay. The room itself was thoughtfully equipped with all the necessary amenities. It included a kettle, tea and coffee, a small refrigerator, and a comfortable bed. While fans were provided, Ella’s naturally cool climate meant we didn’t need them much. The bathroom was spacious and offered both hot and cold water, adding to the comfort of our stay. What really sets this place apart is its location. Just a 3-4 minute walk, and you’ll find yourself on Ella’s most happening street, surrounded by vibrant restaurants and cafes. Cafe Chill, one of the most popular spots, is only a 5-minute walk away, and several supermarkets are nearby, making it convenient to stock up on essentials. The little touches also stood out, like the two complimentary water bottles provided during our stay. Breakfast was delicious, and our request for vegetarian options was gladly accommodated. It was clear that the team goes the extra mile to make guests feel comfortable. One thing to keep in mind is their currency conversion policy—they convert USD to LKR at the bank’s buying rate, which is just 3-4 LKR higher than the exchange rate. This transparency was appreciated, as there were no surprises during checkout. Overall, our stay at Poomaz Peace Palace was fantastic, and we’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Ella. The perfect mix of great hospitality, a prime location, and comfortable accommodations made this an experience to remember!
