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

Amazing boutique hotel, we choose it because of the art and design , but when we arrived it was much more. The hotel upgraded to the room with jacuzzi, but it was the garden and the furniture, the mosaics and the details that fascinated us.

This place is an oasis in Colombo. We just had one overnight after our arrival at Colombo airport. It’s about 45min from the airport (wo. traffic jam). The interieur and garden area of the boutique hotel is really nice. The staff was very friendly and supportive. The Sri Lankan breakfast is a recommendation.

The owners are wonderful - we came in the middle of night and we're leaving as well very early morning but we had our breakfast done on time. It's really enormous to eat and taste each dish. My daughters loved chandelier in patio where bird made its nest and it was taking care of small birds. Although it's a little out of city centrum but it gives silence and possibility to rest in patio to observe animals as birds and squirrels coming for eating. The room is spacious with attached bathroom. Very close to Leisure Villa there is good restaurant - Tango to eat supper or lunch.

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.

Had a great stay at this place. Actually, the best place to stay while extending your visa:passport office is just 600 m away. It is a nice quite area close to Colombo center. Not on the noisy steer but still close to shops and other facilities. Hot water in the shower, good WiFi. The owner is super friendly and helpful, such a great guy. Highly recommended!

Very Clean, hardworking, know what they are doing, safe, quiet, very generous friendly , a bit strict ..new house and furnitures Just need to remind guests to not stay up late and know different time zones, walls quite thin, epecially room with no window have to rely on that window or also opening the door. It is like a home Christian family They wash clothes for everyone, using her washing machine and clean evey two days, change sheets every 4 days. Tap water in sri lanka can be boiled using water heater , drinkable. But taste a bit different , because i have been living amongst nature mountains less people strict country. Must wait around 10-30 minutes sometimes to book tuktuk which is safer and quite cheap.. Supermarkets, markets , restaurants walking about 20-40 minutes. 2 minutes from nearest self-owned minimart, everyday in morning and evening bread tuktuk cost around 100rupees each, vegetarian and non vegetarian. normally the minimart before the temple white wall, will be the final location of the uber, pickmeup. No wifi tissue paper for long term guests, they can be expensive in sri lanka. Most local restaurants eat by hands, there are sink tap water soap Quite safe, as a foreigner, there will be people looking, taking photos, smiling , teasing, getting close. I suggest wear mask at the city, buses are very polluted. Try to relax, prwy chant. not all drivers are bad drivers. Public toilets can be clean, not so clean and not clean. Nice lakes, parks, rice fields about 30-40 minutes of tuktuk. Colombo can be expensive so best know in advance how many days or weeks, i saw when i arrived 3000rupees, now 5000rupees. I have great time, happiness kindness supports encouragment positivity faith . Roads can be bumpy with up down small slopes to reduce speed, if you arent good with motorbike, i really dont really recommend. Sri lanka can be quite dark at night, with beautiful fireflies. Many small holes rocks. Roads up down hill, do not cycle in city.
