Featuring city views, Colombo 07 Charming Home Stays features accommodation with balcony, around 2.9 km from Bambalapitiya Beach. There is a private entrance at the homestay for the convenience of those who stay. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a car rental service is also available. A nice, quiet place to stay in the Cinnamon Gardens away from the frenetic city center. The rooms are large and bright and the house is lovely. The host is very wonderful and helpful, a delight to talk to. We really enjoyed our stay there. We’d be happy to stay there again on our next trip to Sri Lanka. There is not much to eat around the guest house, it is a quiet residential neighborhood with sports fields and offices and such. It is quite pleasant to walk around. A 200-300 rupee tuk tuk ride will bring you to several places to eat, bank etc. We highly, highly recommend eating at Ran Bath Organic which was recommended to us by the host. The food there is perhaps the best we had in our entire trip. Also, a short walk up Maitland is the Glomark supermarket where you can find a wide range of items, as well as alcohol and a pharmacy. Upstairs is a small food court. The food doesn’t really stand out, but if you don’t want to go very far to get something to eat, that’s the place to go. Skip the laundry at the side, it’s very expensive and very slow.

Set in Colombo, the recently renovated Alakamandava features accommodation 10 km from Bambalapitiya Railway Station and 14 km from R Premadasa Stadium. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking and free WiFi. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available. We recently stayed at the wonderful apartment Alakamandawa. The space was incredibly cozy, with tasteful décor that blended modern and warm elements. The living area was well-furnished with a comfortable sofa and plenty of natural light, making it the perfect spot to relax after a long day. The apartment was impeccably clean, and the host was attentive, ensuring everything was just right. Its location was perfect—close to local shops, restaurants, and public transport, yet tucked away in a quiet area. Overall, it was a delightful stay, and I’d highly recommend this apartment to anyone looking for a comfortable and charming place to stay!

Featuring a garden, this 4-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with a private bathroom. Bambalapitiya Railway Station is 4.5 km from the hotel and Khan Clock Tower is 4.6 km away. Me and my sister loved everything about our stay at De Saram. Anthony and Tharak were very kind and sweet and made our stay feel like home. The breakfast prepared by them every morning was exceptional and magical! Anthony also gave us a tour of the entire property which we really appreciated. It's such a beautiful home and we are so happy we could stay there for a few days.

Angam Villas Colombo is set in Colombo and features a pool with a view and garden views. It is situated 9.2 km from R Premadasa Stadium and features a shared kitchen. The villa offers pool views, a sun terrace, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. A little difficult to find...it is behind a very plain facade, but once inside it was a modern and elegant oasis in the city. Very calming and comfortable lobby. Gamini,, the manager, was so hospitable. They will prepare (with notice) lunch and dinner and you can eat in your room or the dining room. Nice refreshing swimming pool...part of the reason I booked here. My ground floor room had a private walled garden with a bench...so romantic. The room was modern and spotless. They had the best towels, pillows, and blankets of my trip thus far. I hated to leave...but will be back
