The location where the Himo guest house is perfect. The friendliest staff is met for far in sl vacation. The room description perfectly met my expectations. I would definitely come again and would like to recommend anyone who seeks privacy and calm in a suburban area.

A very nice, comfortable, clean place! You have everything you need, plus a fully equipped private kitchenette. It's located on a quiet small road so you don't hear any noise. The bed is massive and very comfortable. There is a TV with Netflix. Highly recommended if you need a place to stay close to Colombo. Great value for the price!

An exceptionally clean and spacious room in a quiet and green area outside Colombo. The bed and pillows were lovely and comfortable, which made for a restful night. There was a fridge and small kitchen area in the room, with a kettle, cups, plates, and basic utensils. The room had a TV, fan, and air conditioner. The bathroom is modern, with a lovely hot and cold walk-in shower. Soap and shampoo were provided. There was a large lounge and dining area separate to the sleeping area, available for my use. There was also a lovely veranda / balcony off the bedroom, with a table and 2 chairs to sit on. Gayathri was friendly and welcoming, and we had a lovely discussion upon my arrival. Breakfast is provided, but I left too early in the morning to enjoy this lovely addition.

Stepping behind the gate into this abode is like a waking dream. The attention to detail is exquisite. The staff are relentlessly charming and helpful. Each room is packed with beautiful antiques and curios from Sri Lanka and around the world to emerse you in a cacoon of color. Not only is it worth your stay, Aathma house would be worth traveling to Colombo for! I had booked a whirlwind tour around the country but stepping off the plane and into this secret garden made me want to cancel all my plans and spend my full time here. Truly a work of art.
