Excellent Location. Breakfast was very good. The Bungalow was clean and spacious. Caretaker Gunaseelan was friendly and humble. This is my second stay and would definitely come back again.

A true gem! This boutique hotel exceeded all expectations. The interior design is absolutely stunning. Every detail, from the furniture to the lighting, reflects a perfect balance between modern comfort and timeless local charm. The staff were exceptional – warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming.

I can’t recommend this place enough – a beautifully curated space with outstanding hospitality. I’ll definitely be coming back if have a chance!

Charming boutique hotel, nicely designed and decorated, with a lush garden. Our room was of adequate size (we would prefer it a little larger), very clean, with comfortable bed and all the necessary amenities. Nice (smallish) bathroom. We were warmly greeted and welcomed by the owner who offered excellent cinnamon tea and had a chat with us regarding Colombo and Sri Lanka. He, also, recommended places to visit in town and all his suggestions were excellent and to the point. He, finally, arranged our after-midnight transportation to the airport. If we visit Colombo again, we will definitely stay here again and we highly recommend it for a short or longer stay.

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.

    We had an amazing stay here. The hosts, Sam and Steph, are the most kind, welcoming people you could meet. The staff are very helpful, nothing was a problem for them. The Sri Lankan omelette for breakfast was the best I'd had in the three weeks of travelling the country. Mount Bay Guest House rooms have all that you would expect at more expensive hotels. All the boxes are ticked. A very comfortable stay.
