Ela Beach Hotel

Top choice in Port Moresby


This flash hotel has attractively set rooms in a prime beachfront location. The older rooms are nothing special, and the service is decidedly patchy if you wish to order room service or any extras. However, the hotel's redeeming features include the excellent Beachside Brasserie restaurant and Ozzie’s Bar, one of Moresby’s best live-music venues.
