De Saram House by Geoffrey Bawa sits in Cinnamon Gardens, Colombo, in a property designed by the renowned architect whose name it carries. The building's tropical modernist style, blending open spaces with local materials, makes it a natural choice for travellers drawn to Bawa's work as much as to a place to sleep.
Rooms are offered across Standard, Superior and Deluxe categories, each air-conditioned with a private bathroom, free WiFi, a desk and tea/coffee-making facilities. Some rooms open onto a balcony overlooking the garden, and bed linen and towels are provided as standard. Meal plans range from Room Only to Bed and Breakfast, Half Board or Full Board, depending on how much of your day you want arranged for you.
The garden itself is a quiet counterpoint to the city outside, and the location puts several of Colombo's landmarks within easy reach, among them the National Art Gallery, Viharamahadevi Park, Campbell Park, Independence Square and the Sinhalese Sports Club and SSC cricket grounds. Bambalapitiya Railway Station, the Khan Clock Tower and R. Premadasa Stadium are all within about five kilometres.
For those planning further afield, Leisure World amusement park lies around 31 kilometres away, and St Anthony's Church about 39 kilometres from the hotel, making De Saram House a workable base for both city exploring and longer day trips.
Bookable activities, tours, and tickets within a 25 km radius.
