7.2/10 Good! (14 reviews)
This property is located a short tuk tuk ride from the airport. It makes sense to locate first or last nights close to airport with early or late flights since Colombo is a long way from its international airport. There is no suitable public transport to or from the airport into Colombo other than Uber. This hotel has a respectable bar and restaurant attached which is handy since not much is in the local area. The rooms are pretty basic and are really only suitable for a one night stop. I would use the hotel again if coming in late or leaving early from Sri Lanka.

Location was a tad out of the way and difficult to find.
But once you arrived, the property was beautiful! Staff very friendly. Pool rooms have direct access to the pool from your room.
