Viceroy Suite - Viceroy House

Viceroy House is unique amongst a growing band of Sri Lankan luxury boutique hotels. In tune with its history, it offers something more intimate and personal - a classical 'house-party' feel in the grand old fashion for which the house was built. Viceroy was of course originally designed as a private house, rather than as a boutique hotel. At its heart, then, is a great focus on fun and familiarity. The Wallauwa was the original family home and sits proudly on the highest point of the property. It offers three very large suites on the first floor. Suites from 500-600 sq. feet - all on the first floor with private terraces and stunning views out over the property Uniquely designed and furnished with antique pieces from Sri Lanka and beyond Large bathtubs, marble floors, and vast showers make for luxurious bathrooms Viceroy House is fully staffed with English speaking Sri Lankan nationals, an experienced chef and cooking team and a General manager. Seven acres of beautifully kept tropical gardens that weave between residual jungle and the buildings described above. 30 acres of mixed plantation, including teak, coconut and cloves - ideal for a cool idle stroll before dinner. An indulgent 40-foot pool set just down from the Wallauwa on the main lawn. Lined with private cabanas, the perfect mini-retreat for those slowing down after a long flight in. Increasingly famed for its boutique hotels, Sri Lanka has lacked much variety when it comes to smart spots to recover post-flight (or indeed pre-flight). Viceroy, though much more than just a 'recovery spot', is happily located within a comfortable hour of the International Airport.
