It is very clean and peaceful, although most of the time we were busy outside, we had no trouble dropping in for a short rest because the location was very convenient! We would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a welcoming place to stay and refresh.

We had the most wonderful stay at Aathma House. The location is perfect: a quiet, little green haven in the midst of Colombo. The room was outstandingly well decorated and comfortable and the pool was stunning. Most of all, the personnel was particularly sweet and attentive (and the food delicious - big up to the crab curry!). We would definitely stay there again. Thank you Aathma House for this wonderful start to our honeymoon!

This boutique hotel is an absolute gem. It's very comfortable, clean and friendly. The hospitality was so personal, they made us feel so special the whole time we were there. All our requests where met instantly. I also explained that it was my husband's birthday during our stay when we first arrived and they remembered this and provided us with a special breakfast including a birthday cake, which was really lovely. Thank you, especially to Dilshan, who was absolutely wonderful and Kasun for his support and welcome. In fact, the whole team were fantastic. Well done to all team at 55TG Boutique. 😊

Looking for history without kitsch I discovered this discrete Guesthouse . Away from the crowds of Colombo, the spacious room and antique charm gave me a fantastic rest after exploring Sri Lanka’s capital. With all the qualities of a classic hotel I could enjoy style and comfort while maintaining the privacy of home.
