"We had a lovely stay at Granbell Hotel Colombo. It closed out our two week stay in Sri Lanka, and was one of our highlights. The hotel itself is modern, comfortable and well located. The rooms are incredibly well suited for couples - perfectly sized and with an amazing view (if you are debating, upgrade to a sea view)! My only complaint is that the menu prices exclude VAT, and you are unaware of this until you receive your first bill! It means that the hotel is unfortunately very unreasonable for food and drink for Sri Lanka - but there are plenty of eating options in Colombo."

"Mount Lavinia Hotel offers an unforgettable stay with its stunning beachfront location, colonial charm, and above all, exceptionally friendly staff who go out of their way to make you feel welcome. A special thank you to Dewmini, Lukshan, and Akini — your warmth and hospitality truly made our stay unforgettable. Every interaction felt genuine, and their service went far beyond expectations. The hotel’s seaside location is perfect for relaxing, with beautiful views of the Indian Ocean and easy access to the beach. The atmosphere is peaceful yet full of character, with elegant colonial architecture and a rich sense of history. Mount Lavinia Hotel delivers comfort, charm, and top-notch service. We’ll definitely be back! "
