The Hive is not just a hostel, it’s a home away from home. The owner, Gihan, treats every guest like family, offering personalized attention and genuine warmth. Very good location where you basically have everything at your doorstep. Great lounge area to meet fellow travellers and to enjoy beautiful Ella. Thank you!

This was the best hostel we’ve stayed at in Sri Lanka! We met so many friends here and continued travelling with them. The staff were wonderful and made it very easy for us to plan activities and socialise with other people. The dorms are clean, beds have curtains, the shower has warm water, the breakfasts were delicious and the hostel’s location is superb! The staff are very friendly and really look out for you! Someone in our group left a camera behind (which we only noticed once they told us) and they organised to transport it to Negombo for us at almost no cost!

We had an amazing experience staying at Guesthouse 164 Boutique Hotel! We spent one nights there and also enjoyed both lunch and breakfast at the hotel — The place is , peaceful, and calm There’s a truly magical, chill vibe with a beautiful view of Ella. A special mention to Lahiro, the owner — such a kind and welcoming person who really made our stay feel extra special. Highly recommend this gem if you’re visiting Ella!

Super welcoming host - I was offered a cup of tea at arrival :-) and several times during my stay. New hostels - all very functional, nice, clean and tidy. Very good location. The provided towels are really good!! (I experienced no towel or really old one in other hostels). Central without being in the middle of the noisy pubs/night clubs… Definitely recommend!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
