Hotel information

Dating back to 1906, this stately house offers a tranquil sanctuary away from the lively bustle of Colombo. There’s a real sense of heritage here, with walls adorned with portraits of the Hallock family, who lived here for five generations.

Maniumpathy enjoys a privileged position for exploring Colombo, sitting in the exclusive Cinnamon Gardens area, with the city’s top shopping districts nearby. This is the perfect choice for visitors to Colombo looking to explore this fascinating city’s highlights – simply step out of the house and find yourself totally immersed in Colombo life. Step back inside, and you’ll be enveloped in the peace and quiet of Maniumpathy, where you can soak up the sun in the courtyard, or sit beside the beautiful grand piano in the lounge.

Breakfast at the hotel is a particular highlight, whether you choose a traditional Sri Lankan spread of hoppers, dal and curries; a traditional English breakfast; or a platter of beautiful exotic fresh fruit.

The boutique hotel is part of Manor House Concepts, which prides itself on exemplary service and uniquely stylish properties. Children over the age of six are welcome.
