Its a masterpiece of Geoffry Bawa the famous architecture. It has a unique view of the Kandy city including temple of the tooth, Bogambara old prison, ground and mountains. It has beautiful charming nature and very calm environment. Some artwork from Picasso.... and most of all excellent Sri Lankan food.
We are new to the industry. So truly enjoying making the guests happy. Its not habit or practice for us. So we consider them in a highly personalized manner. And allow them to get the maximum comfort during there stay with us. If you wish to have your own time, that is also fully supported, no disturbances at all...! We have exceptional cook, expert in Sri Lankan food..
Highly residential area with fully safe environment. The star class hotel Topaz is walking distance (1 minute walk) away, if you wish to have a swim, use gim or spa. This is a hideout to have your own time, and surrounding has facility to be socialize or have a happening time.
