“Set amidst luscious gardens this eleven bedroomed mansion, dating back to the 18th-century evokes both its rich heritage with some contemporary twists. Rooms are expansive, decorated in dark woods and rich red and gold accents. They feature private patios and large, black marble bathrooms. Divine. ”

Sri Lanka's hotels step things up
Set amid gardens (with a handsome outdoor pool) and built as the home of Sheikh Salehboy Moosajee, the 11-suite mansion is decorated with abundant silks in striking colours, in a style that’s both in keeping with its 18th-century heritage and quite contemporary.
