Situated in Ella, 7 km from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge, Wood Palace Ella features accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant. With free WiFi, this 5-star hotel offers room service and a 24-hour front desk. Guests can have a drink at the bar. Staying at Wood Palace in Ella was one of the highlights of my trip. The location is perfect — it feels like you’re tucked away in the jungle, surrounded by nature and total peace, yet you’re only a short stroll from town, cafes, and everything you need. That balance between seclusion and convenience is hard to find, but this place nails it. The family who runs it make the stay extra special. The mother who prepares breakfast is absolutely adorable — she cooks with such care, and her warm smile makes every morning brighter. The breakfasts themselves are delicious, fresh, and generous. The owner is a great bloke too — kind, genuine, and always ready to help with tips, directions, or just a good chat. If you want a stay in Ella that feels authentic, welcoming, and beautifully set in nature without being far from the action, Wood Palace is the perfect choice. Highly recommended! 🌿✨

It is an 8-minute walk from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge and 700 meters from Little Adam's Peak. The property is located 1.6 km from Ella Spice Garden.
