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.

Comfy bed, quite neighborhood but walking distance to centre. Next to Gangaramaya temple and a nice lake. Personnel was very helpful and went out of their way to support and help. Kalindu, Nigel and derryl did an amazing work at answering every question, giving travel advice (I stayed longer then planned!) And in general being very warm hearted. Would come again!
