Maniumpathy

Colombo, Sri Lanka

Character of five generations

Nestled between art galleries, chic boutiques, coffee shops, restaurants and national monuments, Maniumpathy is a unique stately home converted boutique hotel in Colombo, Sri Lanka’s capital city.

The property is previously the home of five generations of a family originating in Jaffna. You will find that each room is named after a woman from a different    generation of the family.

Despite its central location, its atmosphere of secluded peace and quiet is pure balm for the weary, the city-drained and travel-stained. Its appointments are elegant, contemporary and comfortable, yet pay tribute to its rich history and that of the neighbourhood.

Each room is spacious and comfortable with chic interior design  – many of the rooms having an outdoor shower.

With its spacious, leafy gardens and private courtyards, its gourmet cuisine, swimming pool and ‘The Grand Ebony Room’ for private functions, Maniumpathy is a more refined choice for long or short stays in Colombo, as well as the ideal place to meet, relax or celebrate.

Thank you for putting together the ancestral adventure of a lifetime. I cannot speak highly enough of the trip. The transfers went smoothly, the accommodation was excellent, the drivers were amazing as they manoeuvred through the traffic and every tour guide had a great deal of knowledge and information. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The contrast of poverty and riches of the country was striking, from the beggars in the street and struggles of the poor to the spectacular, impressive sights of the forts and monuments. There were so many highlights. A moment in time that will never happen again.

Exellent and wonderful, reaching way above expectations.

We wanted the opportunity to see as many wildlife parks as possible and the Classic Safari Company provided an action-packed itinerary that included six, with 11 tiger sightings and nine leopard. This was overlaid with an introduction to Jaisalmer, Jaipur and the 'real' India. Pench and Panna were the hidden gems of a really great trip, very well organised, seamless and enjoyable. As a solo traveller I felt incredibly safe at all times. I want to go back!

Mark Taylor

Julia you did a fantastic job - everything was first class. Well organised, efficient and stress free. We all agreed it was the best holiday we've ever had. Cant wait to travel with CSC again.

The trip exceeded my expectations and was the best family holiday I have ever had. Our children simply loved it and now I know more about African wildlife than they do about our own farm animals.
