We loved our stay and were blown away by the size of our room! The bathroom was amazing too!! Such value for money. We couldn't fault this property. The hotel is full of charm and character. We had a very late check-in and the staff were friendly and very welcoming! The room was clean, bed was comfy and we had a great view from our room. wifi was excellent! Breakfast again we were amazed, a full English! The location is perfect, walking distance to many attractions. You really are in the heart of the city! Can't recommend this hotel enough! Thank you for such a lovely stay!

10/10 Exceptional! (13 reviews)
I only managed to stay one night at De Saram House, which is a shame as I really liked the property. 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 .

How do I get a cheap travel package to Sri Lanka?

Where should I stay in Sri Lanka?
To see popular attractions such as Ancient City of Sigiriya and Dambulla Cave Temple, Central Province is where you need to be. Many travellers also enjoy spending time in Nuwaragam Palatha Central, home to Ruwanwelisaya and Thuparamaya. If you’ve got an extended holiday in Sri Lanka, why not check out both cities?
What are the top hotels in Sri Lanka?
When it comes to hotels in South Sri Lanka Coast, Marino Beach Colombo and Shangri-La Colombo are two great options. If you’re considering heading to Western Province, Mandarina Colombo and Cinnamon Grand Colombo will make you feel right at home.
How far in advance should I book my Sri Lanka holiday?
While not all airlines release ticket prices early, it’s usually possible to look up international airfares on Expedia up to a year in advance. This is the time when you’ll score some fantastic bargains. If you’re purchasing tickets last minute, you might still be in luck. Sometimes the cheapest prices emerge only weeks prior to departure.
What does an Expedia Sri Lanka travel package include?
