A 250-year-old colonial bungalow and adjoining stores/warehouses that occupy an extent of two acres of land in the heart of Colombo, is now the newly refurbished charming, friendly 12-room boutique hotel, The Park Street Hotel. It is one of the few remaining bungalows of its kind in Colombo, formerly the home of a colourful and eccentric couple who were members of Colombo"s "elite". The third in "Taru"s unique collection of charming small hotels in Sri Lanka, The Park Street Hotel, conveniently located approx 30km from the airport, provides her guests a beautiful boutique accommodation in Colombo, as either a base from which to explore the island or a few days shopping or to absorb some distinct urban Sri Lankan culture at the beginning or end of their trip. Ideal for the knowledgeable world-traveller, and anyone wanting a more authentic Sri Lankan hotel experience than the only other "big/chain hotel" options in Colombo, it is also eminently suited to the top-end business traveller needing an exclusive environment to have meetings or entertain VIP clients.
