Best Hotels in Colombo
Explore Colombo from hotels near iconic landmarks, popular shopping streets, and top dining spots.
Granbell Hotel Colombo
"Great facilities, nice stuff, clean room, good breakfast, best view of the railway, perfect location."
Cinnamon Life at City of Dreams
"The hotel delivers well on core fundamentals. The room was clean, well-maintained, and notably spacious, which made the stay comfortable and practical. Check-in at reception took longer than expected, which slightly impacted the arrival experience. That said, staff were professional once the process moved forward. A major plus is the on-site casino located within the same building, offering convenient entertainment options without needing to travel elsewhere. Breakfast was acceptable overall. It met basic expectations but did not stand out in terms of variety or quality."
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."
Sofia Colombo City Hotel
"I really made the right choice; it was incredibly clean and comfortable, totally worth the four-star price and quality. The breakfast was very generous. Most importantly, everything felt new and cozy, unlike the dampness you get in older hotels. This place was clean and dry, which is quite rare. The lunch buffet was 3800 per person including tax, and I felt it was excellent value for money with a great variety of food. For 700, it included breakfast, and they even let us check in two hours early and extended our check-out to 1 PM. I absolutely loved it!"
Mandarina Colombo
"I had a over night stay at mandarin it was nice place Nice rooms and good restaurants and quality food. Special thanks to the staff they were so friendly"
NH Collection Colombo
"Craving a city escape where you’re pampered from check-in to the last sunset cocktail? NH Collection Colombo stands out in Sri Lanka’s buzzing capital, blending urban convenience, plush comfort, and picture-perfect sea views. 🌊 Whether you’re here for business or to soak up Colombo’s historic streets, this hotel is your launchpad for adventure and relaxation. From the moment you arrive at 24 Srimath Anagarika Dharmapala Mawatha, the friendly staff greets you with warm Sri Lankan hospitality, always quick to assist and happy to share local tips. The large, airy rooms are a guest favorite, especially those with panoramic sea views—wake up to sunlight dancing on the Indian Ocean and enjoy a serene start in a comfy, neat space. Make time for the rooftop Infinity Pool & Bar, an insta-worthy spot for sunset sips or just lazing with a view. The hotel’s location means you’re steps from the coastline, handy markets, and Colombo’s vibrant city life. Breakfast is a true highlight: feast on everything from Sri Lankan hoppers to European classics. It’s the kind of breakfast spread that fuels exploration all day long. For the best experience, secure a sea-facing room and double-check your breakfast package upon booking to avoid confusion later. And don’t miss the nearby Galle Face Green at sunset, just a short stroll away—perfect for local snacks and people-watching. Booking tip: Reserve early on trip.com, especially for high-floor, ocean-view rooms. If you want maximum relaxation, take advantage of the rooftop pool in the quieter morning hours."
Morven Hotel Colombo
"I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, everything was perfect. The staff are incredibly kind, welcoming, and always ready to help. The reception team especially made me feel comfortable and well taken care of throughout my stay. If you’re thinking about booking, don’t hesitate! this is a great place to stay!"
Sheraton Colombo Hotel
"Facilities: The facilities are very new, and the bedding is very comfortable. Hygiene: The hygiene is excellent. Service: The service is good, and the breakfast selection is rich. Environment: The environment is nice. The room offers direct views of the sea and the famous 'internet-famous' mini-train. Compared to some other five-star hotels, it's a bit further from popular restaurants and shopping malls."
The Den 23
"Cleaned and well maintained plac"

"The hotel is clean and well positioned on the lake side. Staff is kind and the buffet is delicious."
City of Dreams - Nuwa Sri Lanka
"The hotel is located in the mega-building City of Dreams. It feels more personal because it doesn't have many rooms. It's a bit pretentious, and the breakfast is more showy than practical. The pool area is rather uninviting, but you can use the Cinnamon Life facilities."
Hilton Colombo Hotel
"Overall the stay is great with clean bedsheets and toilet, except that there was some hair on the slippers provided and we can’t sleep well because the pillows are too soft to us"
Taj Samudra, Colombo
"There was a squirrel in the hotel garden."
Mirage Colombo
"Very good location you can njoy the beach view n it’s very near walking to restaurants 👍"
Radisson Hotel Colombo
"The ocean is beautiful and close by, which is a plus. However, sometimes the rooms smell strongly of cigarette smoke, and it's a shame the windows don't open to air it out. On the bright side, the staff are friendly, and overall, I enjoyed my stay at this hotel."
Cinnamon Red Colombo
"The room facilities are relatively new, and it's close to both the city center and the beach. Dining is also convenient, with many Chinese restaurants nearby. It's also close to a large shopping mall, making shopping easy."
Supun Arcade Residency
"The hotel service was excellent."
Pegasus Reef - A Beach Resort in Colombo
"Had a really nice experience here. The location is a bit far from the city, but since we wanted a hotel closer to the airport, it was perfect for us. The staff were very friendly and welcoming throughout the stay. The hotel was clean and had many scenic spots in the property, especially the beautiful Kurulu Kele area. We also enjoyed the afternoon tea there, which was such a relaxing experience. The buffet was great with a good variety of food. We had both dinner and breakfast buffets, while lunch was à la carte, and honestly, that was great too. Our room was spacious with a lovely pool view. One of my favorite moments was watching the sunset from the hotel. Overall, it was a peaceful and memorable stay."
Shangri la Hotel Colombo
"Amazing hotel with amazing view."
Jetwing Colombo Seven
"Everything about the hotel was quite nice. The service is great !"
