The 2 suites are the refurbished private suites of the former occupants of the old house that was #20 Park St. They are in grand and typical colonial style, with beautiful antique furniture but with all the modern amenities and luxuries one would expect. The main Beghum Suite has its own large terrace and garden for private functions.
The 10 deluxe rooms are housed in a converted warehouse and are very spacious with high ceilings and windows that look out to a garden terrace at back. An open plan layout encompasses separate areas for living, sleeping, dining, and dressing, with an ensuite private bathroom. The furniture is dark wood of sleek modern lines and the room is softened by coir, water-hyacinth and leather accessories and rich floor-to-ceiling curtains. Paintings in the deluxe rooms are all one-off originals (for sale) by one of Sri Lanka’s most famous modern artists (Pushpakumara).
King-size double beds, the finest Indian linens, Music system, Cable TV, DVD, personal safe, coffee machine and mini bar are standard in all the rooms and suites. All bathrooms have Rain Showers and fans for ventilation. Both suites and 5 of the deluxe rooms have Jacuzzi Spa Bathtubs.

Visitors Most Rated Property of the Sri Lanka ..
The most picturesque in the world. Soft sound of waves lapping in to the beach, endless strip of white sandy beaches.
Sri Lanka's famous historical sites have become the staple of many a travel programme - Sigiriya.
The Sri Lankan highlands enhance the country's richly-varied landscape. Only a few hours from the coast, here is a land of rushing waterfalls.
