    The boutique hotel we stayed at during our romantic escape had beautiful colonial decoration and a serene garden that we absolutely adored. The location was also very convenient - we were able to explore the charming Old Town and visit nearby restaurants and shops. We particularly enjoyed the delicious breakfasts that were creatively presented every morning.

    Our room was not as quiet as we had hoped for. Our room faced the nearby street and was quite noisy, which made it difficult to relax.

    The hotel was beautiful and well-appointed. The queen room had a bigger bathroom. Comfy bedding and bed. Nice staff. Excellent location near shops and restaurants. Beautifully decorated with antiques. Exceptional breakfast. Large and comfortable room with terrace overlooking the garden. Helpful staff, allowed late checkout.

    Nothing to be said.

    We spent our Easter break in a fantastic small hotel with beautiful antique decorations. the hotel was located in the best place to easily explore the shops, restaurants, and the walls of the old town. the room was large and comfortable with a great outdoors terrace overlooking the garden. the breakfast was delicious and featured creative fruit serving.

    The hotel is somewhat limited in facilities. It does not offer a pool or any other form of entertainment like other hotels in Sri Lanka.

    Perfect location, close to everything in the centre of the old city. Spotless cleanliness, great breakfast, and helpful staff.

    Nothing, no complaints at all.

    Our room had a large outside terrace that provided us with a stunning view of the garden. the staff was extremely helpful, allowing us to keep our room until 6 pm, and offering exceptional service. We enjoyed a creative fruit breakfast.

    That the shower's water pressure was a bit low.
