This elegant boutique hotel used to be the Prime Minister’s residence. It’s a real standout and it’s located in one of the best districts in Colombo, Cinnamon Gardens. The style is very contemporary with a slightly decadent twist. It’s just a short drive to some of Colombo’s best shops and art galleries, so it’s ideal if you like to be in the heart of the action. Transport options include Uber, Kangaroo Cabs or a classic tuk tuk.
Charles and Camilla stayed here in 2013. It is, after all, the former home of the Bandaranaike family, a well known political dynasty. The residence was turned into a boutique hotel after it was taken over in 2005 by Shanth Fernando. With only ten rooms, it’s a very intimate setting.
