Indulge yourself at the Adelphi

BOUTIQUE ACCOMMODATION IN THE TRUE SENSE OF THE WORD

 

Step into the Adelphi, a stylishly appointed colonial villa in the southern Hill Country 

 

At the Adelphi, the discerning traveller can experience the gracious living once enjoyed by the colonial tea planters of Ceylon. On arrival, fine Ceylon tea and home made cakes are served in the elegant Art Deco drawing room. Guests can expect to be pampered by our experienced staff who will be ready to attend to your every need during your stay. Dinner is a club dining experience, although separate tables are available for those seeking a private meal by themselves.


The attractive English flower gardens include a water garden where one can relax reading a novel by Michael Ondaatje whilst listening to the gentle ripple of water from one of the many water features.


The Adelphi is one of the very few colonial Hill Country bungalows to be built in a distinctive Art Deco style. Constructed in the late 30’s, the bungalow’s Art Deco design features are reminiscent of the heyday of the British colonial era and are reflected in the interior design and furnishings.
