Our Rooms
Space to Breathe Beyond the Chaos
The rooms at The Stables Hotel in Midigama aren’t trying to impress you with chandeliers or velvet curtains. They are minimal, the kind of minimal that doesn’t care if you notice, because the real show is outside—the sun bleeding into the water, the surfers chasing their little victories, the train rattling past like a reminder that the world still moves.
​
You wake up with salt in your teeth and the sound of waves pounding like a hangover you don’t regret.​
​
The staff smiles like they know the secret: you didn’t come here for luxury, you came here to feel alive. The rooms are simple, yes, but they’re honest. They don’t lie to you. They give you a bed, a view, and the chance to breathe. And sometimes that’s all one needs—four walls, a fan, and the life screaming at your window.
Our Story
We didn’t build The Stables to impress anyone. Sri Lanka already does that on its own—too much sometimes. The trains scream past, the tuk‑tuks cough smoke, the ocean pounds like a drunk at the door. The colors, the smells, the chaos—it’s all beautiful, but it’s loud. We wanted the rooms to be the opposite.
So we stripped them down. White walls, clean lines, nothing extra. A bed that doesn’t argue, a fan that hums steady, a balcony that lets you breathe. Garden if you want quiet green, ocean if you want the horizon to slap you awake. The design isn’t about showing off—it’s about giving you space to come down from the noise, to let the salt dry on your skin, to remember what silence feels like.
Making it real wasn’t glamorous. It was sweat, dust, and a hundred small choices. Do we add another layer of paint or leave it raw? Do we chase luxury or honesty? We chose honesty every time. We built it with our hands, with the idea that a hotel doesn’t need to be a palace—it just needs to be a place where you can breathe after the world has shouted in your ear all day.
Now it stands here in Midigama, facing the surf, holding its ground. A quiet corner in a loud country. Four walls, a bed, and the ocean outside. That’s the whole story.
