Dehiwala-Mount Lavinia

"I recently visited Colombo for 5 days in October 2025 and stayed at 50 by the Sea - Had an excellent stay there and all my expectations were met - at times went above the expectations also. The apartment looks very new, is very well maintained and most importantly, its extremely clean. Ive visited Colombo many times and many times, I faced the issue of not so clean bathrooms at some residences - at 50 by the Sea, the bathrooms were so clean and neat that it looked like a 5 star hotel's...

Top Gelanigama Hotel Reviews

Cinnamon Red Colombo

8/10 Good

"The efficiency of the staff appears to have significantly declined. Additionally, the breakfast offerings occasionally fall short of expectations, and it would be beneficial for the chefs to inspect the food prior to serving it to guests."

Mandarina Colombo

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoy our stay at Mandarina hotel Colombo. It's really amazing nice place to stay. We enjoy the the restaurant with their buffet."

Shangri-La Colombo

10/10 Excellent

"Incredible hotel as expected. Dining was expansive and delicious, staff in the restaurant were fantastic also. Check-in was friendly and kind, we were offered an upgrade for a small extra charge which we opted for. We were also able to get late check out for no charge which was very helpful and impressive. The horizon lounge was great, very good food and cocktails and the views were beautiful. Room was large and luxurious, my only slight downside is cleanliness wasn't 100%, there was dust and hairs on some of the fixtures and lightswitches etc. The hotel is in a very busy area, despite being on the 31st floor we could hear music and base coming from a party location nearby up until 4am on one of the nights."

Cinnamon Grand Colombo

10/10 Excellent

"Some of the most friendliest staff I have met ! Also I would just go and stay there again simply for the food! Complements to the chefs! I just love the food..!!!"
