Staying in this house is a lifetime experience. You do not get a room. You live in a 120 m2 apartment with a huge, beautiful living room and more.

We liked property design very much. Exceptionally great and comfortable room. Polite and helpful staff. We chose Sri Lanka breakfast and it was very delicious. Our 8 years old daughter enjoyed the pool😀

We booked very late notice due to flight delay and getting into Colombo late. He cooked us traditional Sri Lankan food and it was absolutely superb! He was kind and very accommodating. A very pleasant stay. Would highly recommend. He also organised a well priced taxi to Sigiriya in the morning

Looking for history without kitsch I discovered this discrete Guesthouse . Away from the crowds of Colombo, the spacious room and antique charm gave me a fantastic rest after exploring Sri Lanka’s capital. With all the qualities of a classic hotel I could enjoy style and comfort while maintaining the privacy of home.

If you're staying 1 night, I recommend this place. If you're staying several days or weeks, I recommend this place. Cedric is amazing and the other staff are nice. Colombo is not the best place in Sri Lanka, but Greenscape is a great place to be while you're in Colombo, in-between all the great places. Very comfortable and clean. Not luxe, just lovely. You can walk to a bunch of places: coffee, cafes, restaurants, groceries, a haircut... I didn't cook, all Grab delivery. But the kitchen is convenient and eating on the porch out back listening to the rain is beautiful! So many options!
