"The hostel is in a great location, close to the train station and lots of great places to eat nearby. But that's the only strong point. Everything else is average at best. The place needs renovation, WiFi doesn't work, cleaning in the shared bathrooms could be improved. But the location is great. So if you are looking for 1 night near the station - this would do."

Hilton Colombo Residence

Hilton Colombo Residence

10/10 Excellent
"I had an amazing experience during my recent stay at a hotel in Colombo. The property was exceptionally clean, and the staff were incredibly responsive, addressing all inquiries promptly and professionally. One of the highlights was the breathtaking view of the Lotus Tower, which added a special touch to the overall ambiance. We stayed in a three-bedroom apartment, and it was extremely spacious, offering plenty of room to relax and unwind. Whether you're traveling with family or a group of friends, this setup is perfect for comfort and convenience. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Colombo!"
