Epitawala Vacations from ￥98,522

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.

This property and the folks within it, are truly gems! Conveniently located, we were amazed to be in the heart of Colombo one second, and in a beautifully manicured garden with a perfectly designed pool surrounded by large trees and fauna. Our room was nestled tastefully in this oasis to provide us a serene and peaceful experience. Everything slowed down for us as soon as we arrived. The two owners, Christoff and Pascal, have obviously worked hard to build a personal and relaxing experience for their guests by creating this unique environment in their boutique hotel, and by filling it with staff that are very good at what they do. They all went above and beyond for us. We dined several times while staying and we found both the food and the wine selections to be extensive and perfectly prepared. Both owners and staff are obviously dialed in on the needs of the hospitality industry, as they provide their guests with both service and accommodation that exceed expectations. Folks, this is a 10/10 and we would highly recommend this wonderful establishment to all! We have already booked our next stay and are looking forward to it! Enjoy!

The only issue with this hotel was that their wifi was terrible. Even their front office staff struggled to log into the wifi on our phones and we had to repeat the process every morning as we had been disconnected each morning.
