This suites-only gracious heritage boutique hotel is centrally located in the affluent Cinnamon Gardens area of Colombo. Originally an early 1800s traditional home for a wealthy family it is designed around a beautiful courtyard. Maniumpathy is immaculate in every sense; a heritage delight and architecturally rich, the professional friendly staff always on hand to assist, beautifully appointed luxurious rooms, and a very talented chef who offers amazing local cuisine (our traditional breakfast of hoppers with Seer fish curry was a ‘flavour bomb’ according to our daughter). I highly recommend staying at the glorious Maniumpathy Hotel it surpassed every expectation.

Having to leave

I only stayed here one night before heading home,but I wish I could have stayed longer! Absolutely gorgeous interiors, beautifully decorated rooms and the staff were so kind and attentive, they really went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable. The food was fantastic, and the menu had something for everyone, I especially enjoyed the Sri Lankan breakfast in the morning.

Nothing

A lovely colonial-style boutique hotel situated in a quiet area. Welcoming and helpful staff who were always available. The room was beautifully furnished, the bed was very comfortable and it was lovely to have an outdoor bathroom. We had cooked breakfasts daily which were amazing, there was plenty of food and it was beautifully presented. We also had dinner, the vegetable curry which was so tasty and a generous serving. We enjoyed our swim in the pool each day after our long walks around Colombo.

The service was totally "old school". Lovely staff and the facilities were great.

Everything was great. The only small thing maybe was Our room had a bit of a damp smell but so minor.

An exquisite oasis tucked away in the bustling city of Colombo. So happy we stayed here and not a big soulless hotel. And massage was literally the best I have ever had and very reasonable.

The whole experience was simply perfect. The hotel is of a unique beauty, and the staff made our stay absolutely unforgettable with their courtesy, availability and attention to detail. Last but not least: Breakfast, lunch and dinner were all exceptional!

The architecture, food, hospitality and the ambience.

Maybe the property should keep some souvenirs for the guests to part with. Also keep mosquito sprays instead of burning coils.

Architecture and decor. It was relaxing and quiet. Very friendly staff. And the beds were very comfortable!

Noise travels if there are people eating late in the courtyard but generally its good.

Quiet colonial style without glitter but perfect

Clean elegance

A small boutique hotel perfectly set out with elegant and homely feel
