Everything was perfect. Rohana and the team were fabulous hosts and very accommodating, making us feel at home, and the tour was also very informative. I would highly recommend this special experience of staying at the iconic no. 11

My time at Aathma was one of the best stays I have ever had. The energy there is just beautiful, the staff, the food, the location, the architecture of the house just everything was perfect for me. I felt so welcomed and at ease. If you need time to wind down and recharge, or for any occasion really. Make sure you pay Aathma a visit. I will definitely come again, when in Sri lanka.

Looking for history without kitsch I discovered this discrete Guesthouse . Away from the crowds of Colombo, the spacious room and antique charm gave me a fantastic rest after exploring Sri Lanka’s capital. With all the qualities of a classic hotel I could enjoy style and comfort while maintaining the privacy of home.

An Oasis for peaceful like-minded individuals inside bustling Colombo. Every aspect of the stay was extraordinary - the place was clean and cozy with a lot of live plants and breeze. The little extra finding very good pillows and sheets made the stay extra comfy.
