55TG Boutique Suites

An absolutely gorgeous hotel. So many beautiful artefacts and paintings, spent an hour or two just looking at the walls! The secluded pool was very welcome after a day in the city. Dinner and breakfast were delicious. Lovely personal service.

The eclectic art The room

The meet and greet No one to explain the paintings The breakfast was expensive and lacked any care

Beautiful suites, stunning decor and lovely swimming pool for the children. Staff so helpful and friendly with advice on where to visit and how to get around. Highly recommend and will be back x

Everything was perfect x

The decoration

The insects invasion by mouse size cockroaches, the don’t serve if it is not booked in advance and they are far from any restaurant, dogs are free to walk inside the hotel, bark on people and lick people, bad wifi.

Loved the rooms. Like a mini apartment. Great decor and style. Very homely and comfortable

Lovely spot in a quiet neighborhood of Colombo. The spacious room and pool were welcome after a late arrival. The staff were incredibly kind to open the gate for us very early in the morning and ensure we settled okay.

It was a bit farther from the main tourist areas so you are not within walking distance of many coffee shops or restaurants, but everything is a short ride away. Because our stay was just one night, the extensive photography on site didn’t bother us & any sounds were drowned out by the AC/fans. That being said, if you want a quiet place and don’t want to awkwardly dance around outside visitors, this isn’t the place for you.

The place was beautiful - so tasteful, with exquisite art. The pool was so lovely, and the staff were so attentive and kind.

It’s a little further away from central Colombo, but totally manageable - 20 mins from Galle Face Green on a tuk tuk.

The hotel was so thoughtfully decorated, amazing art is surrounding the property and rooms. We were mesmerized by that. It made us happy to end our trip in this place.

A little more Staff attentiveness would be good, apart from that nothing much really

Ambience, the room, service

Beautiful villa with comfortable beds

Difficult to order taxi during Srilanka New Year time

Lovely accommodation in a quiet area of Colombo, very friendly staff & delicious breakfast. The room was big and extremely comfortable

A lovely, full of great art, antiques and so much beauty. A must boutique stay!

Lovely decorations everywhere, good food, kind personnel.

Tiny bed, a bit far from everything, noise from the central hallway (room adjacent to).

Buen lugar para conocer en dos días Colombo, nos recibieron a las 4 am, el personal super amable.

El desayuno, no termina de gustarme el café como lo sirven en Sri Lanka y habían mosquitos.

It’s super quite in this bustling city :) love the art decor

Lovely boutique hotel situated at the end of a quiet residential area. Enjoyed staying here fta night. Great, big room Good , attentive staff.

Quiet location, - this is a beautiful small hotel (6 rooms I believe) with unique artwork, a small saltwater pool and a tiny, gorgeous garden. Loved the food also, especially dinner. Easy to go anywhere with tuktuk.

Staff were wonderful and kind, but maybe not 10/10 according to western standards. For instance, we stayed two nights, but they forgot (?) to clean our room and fill up the water bottles (they have filtered water they offer for their guests). Just small things. But would absolutely recommend, and would stay there again.

Un hôtel splendide, décoré avec beaucoup de goût. Ce fut une halte parfaite pour notre court séjour à Colombo. L'hôtel est un peu excentré mais cela ne nous a pas du tout dérangé et cela permet d'être au calme dans cette capitale bouillonnante ! Les chambres étaient spacieuses et très bien décorées. Le personnel est très gentil et pro. La piscine, très agréable, est un vrai plus ! Je recommande vivement.

Wir haben unsere erste Nacht hier verbracht und es war ein schöner Start für unsere Reise. Das Hotel ist stilvoll eingerichtet und unser Zimmer war sehr geräumig. Das Personal war stets freundlich. Es finden dort tatsächlich mehrere Hochzeitsshootings am Tag statt. Man wird darauf hingewiesen und uns hat es nicht gestört, es könnte unter umständen aber störend sein.

L’amabilité et le professionnalisme du personnel

Notre lit avait un protège matelas mal fixé et il faisait des plus. Désagréable

Beautiful art and architecture. A jewel box of a place.

The team does warn that a lot of wedding photo shoots happen on the property. We loved seeing the beautiful outfits but be aware that photog teams will be around in the garden and by the pool at times. They are very respectful and shoot around you.

Durch die täglichen Hochzeisshooting stand man als Gast eigentlich im Wege

Beautifully decorated and calm, quiet location. Kids loved the pool. Staff very attentive

Location, the stuff, furniture, bed, pillows. A perfect kitch

Very nice place and a lovely pool to cool down. The staff was so kind and helpful. The breakfast and dinner were so delicious, very big portions, many options and reasonable prices.

The design and aesthetic as well as the friendly service and food was exceptional

It is a little bit of a trek into the centre and important to our food orders in well in advance as it’s a small kitchen.

We liked all of it. The location was excellent and we couldn't believe that it was in the middle of Colombo. It was so peaceful and quiet and there seemed to always be a cool breeze blowing through the property. The property itself was lovely and was beautifully designed and decorated. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable with all the amenities one could require. We had dinner on our first day and breakfast the following morning. Dinner simply super. We had the cheesy pasta, vegetable spring rolls, mushroom soup and garlic bread. All of it was delicious and so well done. Breakfast the following morning was also great. We had the continental breakfast with the soufflé eggs. The fruit was fresh and soufflé eggs were light and fluffy. Finally, the staff were amazing. They were friendly and helpful right from the get got and we couldn't have asked for better service. Special shout-out to Hashan who helped us with our bags, food and the pool. He was awesome!

Nothing!

It's a very beautiful hotel. Every piece has a history and is very beautiful. We checked in late but the receptionist was very helpful. I hope to go back to stay again.

This place is a work of art! Easy enough to get a tuk tuk into the centre of town.

Everything was lovely.

Beautifully designed interior which gave a feel of Sri Lanka 100+ years ago. Easy access to the city centre. Very attentive and helpful staff.

Nothing.

The hotel is beautifully decorated. The staff were very friendly and helpful. A special thank you for bringing me cake and a candle for my birthday. This was a very kind gesture... unfortunately I was rushing to go to the airport so I didn't have time to eat it, but greatly appreciated the gesture.

posto molto scenografico)

The venue is awesome! The rooms, the equipment, the staff.. absolutely amazing. We felt like in another universe! We had also a dinner in place - it took forever to have it done but it was the best curry we had in our whole trip across Sri Lanka. The pool was really a great addition. We loved it

Nothing the hotel can do about it but the surrounding was not so good which was really a pitty.

Great stay all in all, the staff was super helpful and accommodating and the place is great.

Nothing at all.

Bardzo przyjemnie położony hotel. Wyjątkowe przywitanie ze strony obsługi. Pokój ciekawie urządzony, jak i reszta wnętrz. Mnóstwo sesji zdjęciowych -.dobrze, że było uprzedzenie, że tak będzie, to bardzo ważne. Wtedy to tak nie przeszkadza a raczej jest ciekawostką. Łóżko wygodne, prysznic również, z dobrą regulacją temperatury wody. W pokoju lodówka, suszarka, czajnik. Pomocny personel przez cały pobyt.

Drobne minusy - brak dostępu do okna w pokoju- na dłuższy pobyt trudno, na krótki ok. Telewizor nie działał, albo nie wiedzieliśmy jak go włączyć. Obsługa na pewno by pomogła ale nie zależało nam aż tak. Overcharging za taksówkę lotniskową - zwykła to ok 15 dolarów a hotel bierze 45.

Sehr private und ruhige Unterkunft unglaublich aufmerksame Gastgeber

Meravigliosa villa coloniale arredata con stile e personalità. Sembra di soggiornare in un museo d’arte. Staff sorridente ed accogliente. Cena da soli nel salone molto suggestiva. Camera meravigliosa. Mi sono sentita a casa anche se per solo una notte. Sono presenti anche una bellissima piscina ed un bagno turco.

Tutto perfetto

Beautiful property, amazing art, design and antiques, lovely and helpful host, excellent dinner and breakfast

Nice spacious rooms tucked away in Colombo. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and hospitable.

It's a little out of the way, and there's not a lot of amenities. This was fine for us as we were only in Colombo for one night.

Beautiful, away from the hustle and bustle of the big city.

Very nice rooms, super helpful personel

Beautiful decor, very clean, lovely staff

Although we knew there may be wedding shoots on, we didn’t expect them outside our room both mornings at 6.30am (waking us up the second day) or that they would be taking pictures in the small dining room when we were eating

Staying at 55TG boutique from April 2nd to 3rd, 2025, was the perfect way to conclude our Sri Lankan adventure. Our only regret was that we couldn't stay longer! We arrived early from Tangalle, and the staff kindly allowed us an early check-in to our room, the "Art Suite with a beautiful Garden View". It was beautifully decorated, spacious, and impeccably clean. We initially found the wifi signal weak, but our host, Dilshan, immediately demonstrated his exceptional attentiveness by bringing a router directly to our room, which resolved the issue completely – we had a great connection afterwards! The service from Dilshan and his crew throughout our stay was outstanding; their attentiveness made us feel like we were guests in a 5-star restaurant. The food was another major highlight. While seafood wasn't available on the menu during our short stay, the team was very accommodating and even offered to purchase alcohol externally for us if needed. We had lunch, dinner, and breakfast there, and everything was absolutely delicious. The fish curry and rice at dinner was genuinely the BEST meal we had during our entire trip! They even made the setting incredibly romantic, decorating our table with rose petals. As if that wasn't enough, they surprised me on my birthday morning! I certainly wasn't expecting techno birthday music to accompany my scrumptious breakfast – it was such a fun and unexpected touch. It made our early departure for the airport feel even more bittersweet, and we truly wished we could have tipped Dilshan and the staff more generously for their fantastic service. The grounds were quiet and private, contributing to a very peaceful atmosphere and a great night's sleep. Our stay felt far too short but was simply wonderful. Our sincere compliments and thanks to everyone at 55TG boutique for making our stay so memorable and special. It was the perfect ending. (P.S.

all was great.

The property is quite lovely. Full of history and artworks and the dining room was quite fabulous with wonderful elephant wallpaper. An excellent breakfast too.

Nothing at all though it might have been a bit challenging to get around without our car and driver.

Just unique. Extremely helpful staff. It is tucked away and the accommodation do make you aware of that. But nothing a tuk-tuk can’t take you too.

Loved that it was tucked away, a beautifully restored property, and very attentive staff. The whole experience felt special. It was so quiet and peaceful as well.

I loved this hotel and the design and decor. I loved watching all the bridal shoots that were happening. I really loved the bridal magazines in the room, one of which featured 55TG in it! The swimming pool was my favourite feature and I liked being able to sunbathe up there Staff were friendly I did find the breakfast slightly disappointing but loved the curd and syrup 🙂

Beautiful design, architecture and staff

Lovely decor and very helpful, friendly staff.

Beautiful design and friendly staff

Room was a bit damp

The accommodation is so stylish, a little whimsical and very comfortable - we absolutely loved it! The staff are so service-minded and friendly.

Quiet location. Easy to arrange to transport from.

Smell of damp. Room was a tiny bit claustrophobic.

We appreciate the beautiful design of the accommodation, very pleasant and helpful staff, we were given towels for the pool. The breakfast was very tasty, we could choose what we liked. There were clean towels, soap, shampoo in the bathroom. We lacked nothing.

There was a wedding or birthday party, which was bit loud. But I understand why people wants to celebrate these special moments there. Earplugs solved it.

We were only here for one night and an early morning the next day however the staff were lovely and the rooms were fantastic. Super clean and easy to check in. Thank you for packing a breakfast super early the morning after. Would love to come back in the future.

Very unique boutique hotel outside of town. Every room is different and the staff was very accommodating. Wish I had time to enjoy the pool and steam room

Meal portion sizes are huge!

Very well done space with nice touches across the property. The staff were very accommodating and nice

No bin liners in the rubbish bins and unpredictable wifi at times.

Super friendly and helpful staff and the food was excellent.

Stunning designed rooms. Clean and well stocked. Kind, responsive staff. They made us a takeaway brekky when we planned to leave extra early for a tour. Nice and quiet spot in a beautiful neighbourhood. Easy to get transport into Colombo.

Overall setting and attention to detail

Everything was exceptional

If you want a place away from the hustle and bustle of Colombo. Very close to city proper on a tuktuk or best with Uber if you hate walking. Local breakfast was amazing. Kasen and his team was amazing.

Nothing.

amazing boutique. perfect food and service. The rooms sre well decorated and spacious. This hotel is famous for being a wedding photoshoot spot. Be ready to see some amazing dresses.

slightly far from the city center but very quiet. It costs 600lkk (around 2€) with tuktuk to reach the downtown.

Beautiful, quiet and comfortable

Nothing

We only stayed for one night but the rooms and staff were lovely. We had lunch there and the food was great, the staff also decorated the lunch table with flowers as it was our honeymoon and went above and beyond.

Beautiful clean room. Staff were delightful and helpful. Breakfast was delicious (had both Sri Lankan and non Sri Lankan options). A bit out of town but we thought absolutely worth it. Would stay again. Loved it and didn't want to leave!

nothing

Wonderful staff, nothing is too much of a hassle for them, I only spent one night here after arriving in Sri Lanka but it was the perfect place to recover from the flight. The room was gorgeous and breakfast was fantastic!

We live every bits of it. the staff is do friendly and organised. very clean and spacious. They organized a tuk tuk for the day for us. The decoration is stunning

the location is at about 15min in tuk tuk from the main attractions in Colombo.

Lovely room, great breakfast

Stunning boutique hotel, with beautiful unique rooms, and wonderful design throughout

You would not choose this hotel for its location, but it is perfect for a night in a stunning environment

The staff were the best part- especially Danesh! He went above and beyond for us. My son adored him!

The constant photo shoots we found that annoying. It was daily and I wished that they would prioritise guests over this.

Amazing property, decor, staff, service! The place has such character and charm. <3 We had a short stay here but if I’m in Colombo again I’d stay here in a heartbeat.
