High on a hill, yet within minutes of the city center, the Doornberg, or The Dutch House, has set the pace in redefining luxury accommodation for the individual traveler in Sri Lanka. Highly exclusive with only four suites, this country house, built in 1712, ensures complete privacy for its guests.

Spacious living areas, an English tropical garden complete with a croquet lawn, and a treetop infinity pool provide ample space for guests to find a quiet area in which to unwind truly. Period Dutch antiques reflect its early 18th century origins but blend in well with its contemporary art collection.

Voted as One of the Top 20 Hip Hotels of the world, The Dutch House is the ultimate indulgence in space and privacy in one of Ceylon’s most well-preserved historic mansions.

The discreet and friendly staff ensure your privacy while providing a very relaxed and unpretentious atmosphere.

Perfect for those looking for idle splendor since doing nothing is the order of the day!

A great place for either beginning or ending your travels in Sri Lanka.
