I recently had the pleasure of staying at this newly opened hostel in Colombo, and it truly felt like a home away from home. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with the owners and staff going above and beyond to ensure every guest feels comfortable and welcomed. The facilities are modern and spotlessly clean, offering a perfect blend of comfort and style. Its central location makes it easy to access local attractions, markets, and eateries. If you’re planning a trip to Colombo, I highly recommend this place for its exceptional hospitality and cozy ambiance.

The room and the space exceeded my expectations, I was pleasantly surprised. Staff where very friendly and helpful. For a budget stay Inn, it really was an amazing experience and the room certainly was not of budget standard at all. I loved the hippy and modern décor, made it feel very chilled compared to bustle happening outside. A very calm space was created.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
