This was first night in Sri Lanka and it was extremely comfortable. It's in an excellent location in the heart of Colombo. The first thing that struck us were the artworks around the hotel. A very pleasant bar and restaurant area. Our room was very comfortable, with an amazing bathroom. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, and we had a delicious breakfast. This is a lovely boutique hotel, in total contrast to the many impersonal chain hotels in the city.

We overnighted here before flying back to the UK. It's a very nice, clean and stylish (wonderful artwork) boutique hotel in a great location - a short walk from the picturesque Beira lake. Our room was quite spacious with a dressing area. The only couple of niggles were that the bathroom had an overriding damp smell and was very dark and, in the evening, the music from the restaurant area was audible (not excessive) from the room although quiet by around 10:30. The food here - as well as the service in the restaurant - was excellent both for our evening meal as well as breakfast. Overall, a lovely hotel and restaurant in a great location.

This is a small, but welcoming hotel in central Columbo. This was our 3rd stay in a Taru hotel during our stay in Sri Lanka and we were very happy with our rooms and staff. We were met by Arun who greeted us with a warm welcome and helped us with all of our questions. He was attentive and enthusiastic at breakfast, happy to chat with us as we set out for a day of touring. I appreciated the kindness and attention Arun showed us.

We were looking for a boutique hotel that was well located and really lucked out. Right next to the Lake - and thus close to shops such as Paradise Road and other attractions such as Galle Face. Their restaurant food was incredible and worth a visit even if not staying. Very caring staff.

What a fantastic boutique hotel. The room was lovely, the hotel and especially the artwork was great. We had amazing cocktails- really interesting combinations and great service. The breakfast was very different to anywhere else we stayed. I had baked eggs with marmite soldiers which was delicious. The presentation of every aspect of our experience here was truly thought out. A great end to our holiday.
