The wallawwa

Info : The Wallawwa

Just minutes from Sri Lanka's airport, the beaches of Negombo and the city of Colombo is the Wallawwa. An airport hotel with a difference.

Nestled amongst acres of beautifully manicured gardens, this antique colonial manor house, or Wallawwa, is now the home of one of Sri Lankas most exciting boutique hotels.

This old and new concept provides guests with unrivalled setting and style just 20 minutes from the airport and the hustle and bustle of Colombo. Strategically located close to the Dambulla, Kandy & Galle highways, the Wallawwa remains entirely secluded.

There are two room types - Wallawwa Bedrooms and Garden Suites. The food at the Wallawwa is fantastic; created to blend the best of Sri Lanka and South Asia along with good old home cooked recipes. Sample real Sri Lankan cooking, traditional curries or more adventurous local cuisine as well as the best of the West, recipes developed from our favourite home made dishes from around the world. There is also a spa for a little pampering.

The Wallawwa is the perfect start, middle or end to any visit to this enchanting island; a luxury private hideaway.

Deluxe - Deluxe hotels would have a superb level of service, very comfortable and usually spacious bedrooms, excellent food, great design and character. For us, when we visited, these places all had the 'wow factor'. A deluxe hotel should satisfy the criteria of the most discerning clients.

Guest Comments for The Wallawwa

The Wallawwa on our last night was the icing on the cake - accomodation, food and ambience all perfect - it made us so sad to be leaving

The hotel near the airport on the way home is usually just a stop off but not this time - The Wallawwa Hotel was as good as all the others

Wallawwa - Great hotel for last night - quite posh, but food and service and massage very good - surprisingly close to airport
