Granbell Hotel Colombo ★★★★

📍 282/5 Kollupitiya Road, Marine Drive, Colombo 03, Colombo

"I highly recommend this hotel! The environment is clean and refreshing, and the overall atmosphere is quiet and comfortable. The rooms are spacious and come with all the basic amenities you'd need. It's hard to find such a great deal at this price point; the value for money is absolutely outstanding. The service truly impressed me. All the staff members were warm and friendly, always greeting guests and promptly attending to any requests with meticulous care. My entire stay was hassle-free, and the overall experience was excellent. It's my top choice for accommodation when traveling, and I've already recommended it to my friends. I'll definitely be booking here again next time!"

City Beds Colombo ★★★

📍 Sir Chittampalam A Gardiner Mawath, Colombo 01, Colombo

"I stayed here alone. I have no complaints about the room itself, but it was a hassle because there was no staff present during check-in and check-out. For check-in, I couldn't even get into the building because the entrance wouldn't open. Also, if you stay for consecutive nights, there's no room cleaning service."

Cinnamon Grand Colombo
8.8 (105 reviews)

Cinnamon Grand Colombo ★★★★★

📍 77 Galle Rd, Colombo 03, Colombo

"Overall pleasant stay at Cinnamon that I'd totally recommend to anyone and stay again myself. A comfortable bed, nicely sized room, beautiful property, convenient location, such friendly staff and a wonderful breakfast are just some basic memorable facts about our stay for 3 nights. The bakery downstairs, Plates restaurant, and the mall next door just add on to the comfort of the stay at Cinnamon Grand. To top it all off, we upgraded our stay to the executive floor, and accessed the lounge to enjoy a variety of mouth-watering snacks (that changed everyday) and took 2 free laundry/day offering. It couldn't get any better!"

Edgefield Escapes Hotels in Colombo

Edgefield Escapes

"I had a wonderful stay at Edgefield Residences and Resort in Sri Lanka. The owner was exceptionally kind, warm, and incredibly attentive -from the very first moment I felt truly welcome and welltaken care of. He looked after me perfectly and was always helpful. I would especially like to highlight the excellent Sri Lankan food he cooked himself authentic, fresh, and absolutely delicious. It was a real highlight of my stay. The accommodation is also located near Climblanka, which is perfect for climbing enthusiasts. The owner even organized transportation there, making everything very easy and convenient. The house was spotlessly clean, very well maintained, and you can feel the attention to detail throughout the entire place. Everything was wonderful, and nothing was missing. Ican highly recommend this accommodation and would definitely come back again. Thank you for such a great experience"

Granbell Hotel Colombo ★★★★
"The room looks great in person, especially the lobby and restaurant which have fantastic views of the miniature train and the ocean. However, the service could use some improvement. The housekeeping staff missed cleaning my room twice and forgot to change the towels."

Marino Beach Colombo ★★★★★
"⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good stay, great staff — pool‑side dining rules a drawback The team at Marino Beach Hotel were absolutely amazing warm, attentive, and always ready to help, which made my stay really pleasant and comfortable. The one disappointment was the strict policy: Food are not allowed near the pool or sun‑lounge areas, only in one corner of the rooftop Level 10. This isn’t a practical choice many guests want to relax and enjoy a light meal or snack while staying by the water. Having to dry off and change fully to enter the restaurant meant it was often empty, and I think the hotel misses out on extra business this way. Otherwise, a nice, well‑kept property with lovely people just hope they review that rule soon."

C1 Colombo Fort ★★★
"The location is great. Rooms are spacious. But I can't explain why I didn't like it overall. They don't provide towels, the bed sheets weren't super clean, the place is pretty noisy so you need to use earplugs, there's no soap in the bathroom"

Cinnamon Grand Colombo ★★★★★
"The rooms were very clean and spacious, and there's a pool too. Everyone was very professional and greeted us with a smile. The doorman's smile was particularly lovely. We had a late-night flight, but we were able to use the hotel's shower after sightseeing before heading to the airport, which was truly a lifesaver."
