I loved the way the indoor/outdoor sitting area was surrounded by the lovely garden with a huge tree.in its midst. ##### Joyce Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### John Jul 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Originally, a private home designed by the famous Bawa, this is a delightful boutique hotel with only a limited number of rooms. The original art and the property offer many photo opportunities. The staff were amazing-- cheerful and extremely hospitable. Overall, a wonderful place to stay compared to other more conventional hotels in Colombo. Internet was a bit wonky during my stay, but resolved by the staff. ##### John Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yasuko Oct 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 素晴らしい経験でした。 ゆったりとした時間を楽しんでください。 ##### Yasuko Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### SACHIKO Sep 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ジェフリーバワの個人住宅の建築を堪能できます。少しWi-Fi接続は弱かったですが、スタッフの人柄がとてもよく親切で、気持ちよく過ごせました。 ##### SACHIKO Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### LIZ Jun 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Anthony and Sujeewa ensured we had a delightful stay.

Admittedly it was initially somewhat hard to find it, but once you are inside, it is so calm and picturesque that it feels like an oasis from bustling Colombo. I have attached a bunch of photos to showcase the serenity of the place. Location-wise it is also excellent, being in a quieter neighborhood that is in walking distance from very nice cafes such as Caramel Pumpkin and Seed Cafe and restaurants such as Upali's. Room-wise it is large, quiet and well-appointed, though do not expect 5-star facilities such as phone in your room or a small fridge. Which leads to my main comment - despite its luxurious look, this is very much a small establishment run by just 2 staff members. It is not a 5-star hotel with expected services such as food and drinks available and staff service all day long. Price-wise it is also not the level of a 5-star hotel so those expectations are flawed from the start. Instead, what you get is a super beautiful estate and a well-appointed and quiet room, led by very kind staff members who try their best to help. I did have some initial wifi issues but they were resolved. Anthony was the person who attended to me at De Saram House, and he was professional, courteous and helpful - even when I had to check out a 4:45am to catch my flight. So if you know what to expect going in, this could be the perfect stay for you in Colombo . ##### Raymond Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### VISHWANATH Jul 7, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Stunningly beautiful and well maintained ##### VISHWANATH Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pavel Apr 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities My room was amazing! ##### Pavel Stayed 1 night in Apr 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Fabrice Sep 21, 2025 ##### Fabrice Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michio Jun 23, 2025 ##### Michio Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathryn Jun 12, 2025 ##### Kathryn Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Saffron Oct 2, 2024 ##### Saffron Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### SHOKO Sep 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### SHOKO Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yumi Jul 19, 2024 ##### Yumi Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vengatesh Apr 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Vengatesh Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael Mar 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Michael Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### manish Jan 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### manish Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lyndon Oct 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Lyndon Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### muxuan Oct 10, 2023 ##### muxuan Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Neomie Jul 11, 2023 ##### Neomie Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Naomi Jul 3, 2023 ##### Naomi Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hikaru May 31, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Hikaru Stayed 1 night in May 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Aloft Miami -
