Such a friendly and kind host. She went above and beyond to make our stay the best it could possibly be. Even waking up at 5 am to make breakfast before our train journey. We loved staying here, the view of sunrise is incredible.

Best bed in Sri Lanka! Location is great, 10 minute walk from hotspots in town, we liked that since the music in town is extremely loud. The balcony had an amazing view and every morning breakfast was served at our own balcony. Host is the best! Very friendly, helpful and caring.

The customer service was excellent in the Tea Cabins. If we required anything at all (food, taxi etc) all we had to do was text and it was organised for us very promptly! Our room was ready earlier than check in which was great for us. The cabin so very clean and well looked after. We absolutely loved our stay here. Staff gave great suggestions on places to eat and things to do. The location is a little bit out of Ella but a free tuk tuk was provided anytime we wanted to go. Would highly recommend this hotel.

I had an absolutely fantastic stay at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, the service was impeccable. The staff were incredibly welcoming, professional, and always went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable. everyone was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. The accommodation itself was top-notch—clean, spacious, and thoughtfully designed. Every detail, from the bedding to the amenities, reflected a commitment to quality and comfort. It felt more like a home away from home than just a hotel rooms.definitely we will back.

Reingruber

Sri Lanka

We stayed one night at The Palace Eco Cottage in Ella and absolutely loved it. The cottage sits high up in the hills, and the view over the valley and surrounding landscape is simply stunning—one of those places where you just stop and take it all in. The room was very spacious, spotless, and felt incredibly peaceful. We would recommend it for the setting alone, but what truly makes this place special is the owner. She is such a dedicated, warm, and genuinely friendly person, and you can feel her attention to detail in everything—from the rooms to the food. We had an incredible breakfast with eggs, fresh vegetables, fruits, and delicious sweet treats. Honestly, it was one of the best breakfasts we had during our entire trip in Sri Lanka. She also offered us lunch and dinner—completely free of charge—which was unbelievably kind. We had already made plans in town, so we didn’t get to try it, but if breakfast was any indication, it must be amazing as well. A real highlight was the family’s generosity in offering to drive us to Ella town in their tuk tuk whenever we needed, again free of charge. It made everything so easy and added such a personal touch to the stay. All in all, we can’t recommend The Palace Eco Cottage enough. A beautiful place with incredible hospitality—if you’re coming to Ella, this is truly a wonderful spot to stay.

Emma

From

Everything was great! The family was lovely and prepared an amazing breakfast and lunch for us; one of the best food we ate in Sri Lanka! The room was spacious and clean. Ella can be quite hectic, so it was nice to have a accomodation a bit further out in nature where you could relax. You can even spot some monkeys. You can easily walk towards the town following the traintracks, which is around 15/20 min walking. The family is amazing and really want you to have a lovely time! We definitely enjoyed our stay here!
