This hotel is basically a bed and breakfast hotel.
The room was spacious. The Bathroom needed a makeover badly and was quite dated. The tap in the sink was wobbly. the Toilet seat needs fixing. The bed was ok the net over the bed was only for decorative purposes, and could not be used as a cover. The breakfast was OK. The furniture was sub standard. All in all it was Ok for a stopover.

Looks lovely on the outside but mixed review
Gorgeous garden and lovely photos on the website but didn't quite live up to them enough. Staff are very lovely and attentive. Our room felt damp, the bedding itself felt wet so wasn't comfortable. The bathroom was really rather gross. Breakfast menu had a number of options which was nice but nothing is that big... but still tasty. Beach is really close as is the main road so great location.

Poor maintenance
The only thing good about this boutique hotel is its location cuz it is literally walking distance (5-7 mins) from the Mount Lavinia beach. I would never rate a place poor but this hotel brought me to it cuz the maintenance of the hotel is in extremely poor condition especially the floors and walls of the rooms and bathrooms. The whole area is covered with black mould and that makes the rooms stink a musty smell. We had booked a traditional King Room and this guy put us in a horrible standard room which was stinking and he insisted it was a Maharaja Suite!!! His Maharaja Suite had broken latches and bathroom had a rusted and completely corroded sink!! When I showed him the photos of the room I had paid for, he shifted us to the actual Suite. Here too, there were red ants in the bathroom and poor maintenance overall due to black mould throughout the room. When we asked for a change of Suite he first insisted there are only two suites (whereas there are five suites) and that the other one was booked (whereas besides us there was not a soul in the whole Colonial Bungalow except the staff)!!! Breakfast is made to order and thankfully their staff Mr Suren is a very cordial and professional person. Breakfast is fine depending upon what you order and food is prepared fresh. But overall the experience was absolutely bad due to the unprofessional behavior and poor maintenance of the hotel.

Wish we could pick it up and carry it around Sri L
We thought this hotel was great and a real find and other guests we spoke to and whom had done some research on foot in the area felt this strongly too! We loved it because it was a short walk to the dive centre (the only one in Colombo), on the beach smart, clean beautiful and friendly. We decided to stay extra nights and the price was very reasonable. The hotel was very quiet. An old colonial mansion with great sweeping four poster beds, which are large and comfortable. There is also old fashioned furniture and quaint British tea service around the hotel. Bathrooms is basic but has hot shower and it clean and functional. The staff are really accommodating and we arrived 8hrs before check in but they found us a room and let us move in. We also missed breakfast due to diving but they went out of the way to feed us. Great tea selection and breakfast choices. Aircon in room works well. Avoid massage place next door, it's poor service and over priced but there is a great little place for food down the road towards the beach and right at the junction. It's called Food Corner, lunch for £1.50. There are also cash points close by to the hotel on Galle Road and plenty of shops!

pictures on internet terribly deceptive
I apptreciate the colonial look and the staff were friendly and helpful. We stayed for 3 nights and the room was never cleaned, bins never emptied and beds were not done or towels and sheets were never changed. In the room/ bathroom there was not even a place to hang the towels or clothes nor a soap dish in the shower. The biscuits that were meant to accompany the evening tea never came though it was always promised for the next day. so was the bacon at breakfast that was meant to be there if requested. Regret to say one of the worst i've stayed in.

Feel like home
First impression of this hotel, it has the whole colonial building look (100 years old if not mistaken), so don't expect a new building and interior because it is definitely old but not ruin I must say. When we step foot out of our taxi, the staff had come over and carry our luggage for us (that's a plus point). There a few staff at the entrance greeting us, so we went to the lobby for check-in. We had to wait for awhile as the check-in staff is not presented at the check-in table. Despite our early arrival, we had been given a room without question (another plus point). Room was clean and we loves the decor so much as it was white and pure and seem like our own room (if we can manage to make it look similar). The hotel interior decor was charming but overall, the garden is what takes the most of our attention. It seems 'English' if you know what I mean. And yes, they even have their own three wheeler ('tut tut') which was cute! We opt for breakfast which had to be paid a little bit more in our booking. Not much variety in their menu, you may choose either 1 of the 6 food option available on the menu provided (our favourite is no. 5, if i'm correct here it is the sri lanka omelette). Breakfast starts from 8am till 10am. You can also have complimentary tea with biscuit at the garden (upon request) but we didn't have it as we often go out early morning and came back late evening. The beach is about 5 to 10 minutes walk depends on how you walk.
