SeSaya Poshtel & Bistro - Colombo's Newest and Finest Poshtel Dorms and Rooms
8.7 (90 reviews)

SeSaya Poshtel & Bistro - Colombo's Newest and Finest Poshtel Dorms and Rooms ★★★★

📍 234, 4 Sri Jayawardenepura Mawatha, Rajagiriya

"The environment here is great, and it has everything you need. There's a restaurant and supermarket right across the street, which is super convenient. The staff are incredibly warm and friendly. It's the perfect place to rest and relax when you're tired, and you can sleep until you naturally wake up. Absolutely fantastic!"

Edgefield Escapes

Edgefield Escapes ★★★★

📍 457/Q/27, Highway Edge, Jayagath Mawatha, Polgasowita

"During checkout, we faced a shortage of cash as the hotel did not accept UPI payments. I informed the owner that I would complete the checkout by 12:30 PM and left my 12-year-old son in the room while I travelled to Colombo to withdraw money. While I was on the way back, the hotel owner called me repeatedly, shouting and threatening that my son would be thrown out of the room if I did not return immediately. When I arrived, I found my son outside the room, crying and visibly distressed. The staff continued shouting aggressively and made insulting and discriminatory remarks, including stating that “Pakistan is better than India” and accusing us of being frauds. The behaviour was extremely unprofessional and humiliating. Despite explaining the situation and settling the payment, the shouting continued, and the situation became intimidating, to the point where I felt unsafe and feared physical confrontation. I chose to remain calm and leave with my son to avoid further escalation. This incident caused severe emotional distress to both me and my child, who is still in shock from the experience. I intend to file an official complaint with the embassy regarding this unacceptable and disrespectful treatment."

Mandarina Colombo
9.1 (325 reviews)

Mandarina Colombo ★★★★

📍 433 A2, Colombo 03, Colombo

"The room was clean and all the facilities I needed were there. I arrived at the premises earlier than the check-in time, and thanks to the help of the courteous staff who helped me with my luggage and showed me to my room, the check-in process was very smooth. Didn't use the facilities much, but the location is perfectly accessible for me to explore around the city. This is actually my second time staying at the Mandarina and I would do so again!"

C1 Colombo Fort ★★★
"Stayed here again at the end of my trip — still a great choice! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I came back to C1 Colombo Fort for my last night in Sri Lanka, mainly because the location is so convenient. It’s right in Colombo Fort, close to many attractions and within walking distance of the beach. And when the Colombo heat gets too much, Uber is cheap enough that getting around is super easy. The staff were once again very warm, friendly, and helpful. They were always happy to assist and had given us some really useful recommendations during our first stay, especially for affordable local food. I also really appreciated the spacious lobby, which was convenient for waiting before check-in or after check-out. Just a small tip: hair dryers aren’t kept in the rooms, but you can ask the lobby for one and they’ll provide it. After staying here twice during the same trip, I can definitely say C1 Colombo Fort is a convenient and good-value option for exploring Colombo"
