VAUX Park Street / On your doorstep
Stay where the routes begin. VAUX Park Street is eight serviced lofts at 60/10 Park Street, Colombo 02, next door to Park Street Mews, with a rooftop pool and a 24/7 concierge. Everything on this page is measured from our door.
Working from Colombo
Our lofts are made for longer stays, and many guests keep working while they are here, with a quiet room to work in and a café around the corner for a change of scene.
When you want company or a meeting room, Colombo has good coworking spaces, and some of the city’s best coffee shops are happy to see a laptop. Here is what is close by, nearest first, with straight-line distances from VAUX.
We have also added the practical things a working stay needs: SIM cards, printing, chargers, the time zone and the public holidays that close banks and offices.
