Mount Lavinia Hotel ★★★★

"we enjoyed"

The Lion Pub & Hotel

"I booked this hotel on August 8 and received a confirmation. However, when I arrived at around 9 PM on August 15, the hotel had no record of my booking under my name. It was a really frustrating experience – especially after a long day of travel. I contacted Trip.com customer service immediately, and they worked on it, but unfortunately they couldn't secure a room for me at this property. I had to find another hotel last minute that night. The good news: Trip.com has already reached out to me and confirmed they'll reimburse all my costs. That's a huge relief, and I really appreciate their responsiveness. Despite this one-off glitch, I still trust Trip.com for future travels – these things happen, and they handled it professionally. Since I never actually stayed here, I can't comment on the rooms, cleanliness, or service – so I'm keeping my ratings neutral across all categories. A quick tip for fellow travelers: Always double-check your booking by calling the hotel directly a day before arrival, especially if you're arriving late. Even with confirmation, errors can slip through. That way, you avoid the stress I went through. Overall, I can't recommend or criticize this hotel – I just didn't get to stay. But full credit to Trip.com for stepping up and making things right. Will definitely book with them again."

Berjaya Hotel Colombo ★★★

"The overall hotel environment is good and worth staying"

The Villa in Lavinia ★★★

"The hotel is very close to the beach. The staff is very nice. Everyone is smiling. 😀"

Anarva Hotel & Spa ★★★★

"Good place. Clean and quiet."

Tropic Inn ★★

"This hotel had very poor organising. Even we have to remind them for everything like breakfast on time, housekeeping, also very bad manner was, when we entering after outing, they won't allow us to come in or just to relax in, they ask "what would you like for dinner or lunch". That manner was very stressful to us. They are not for us to breath in in a minute.Forget to keep soap shampoo and bed linen and new tools. We cannot see outside. The room covered with walls. It's like prison house. The manager peeped into our room, when we go out. Bad habit! Bad hotel"

Lavinia Bay Beach Hotel ★★★

"The smell from the rubbish dump was a concerning factor. Staff and the room was okay. No regrets I got what I paid for."

Colombo Beach Hostel ★★

"It was a great experience. The food is amazing and eating with the other travelers perfect. Great place to chill out and for swimming you can also reach to city center by public buses. It’s worth to see here and to stay here. Hi the recommended. If you will stay in a close distance to Colombo, that’s your place and if you’d like to meet with the others again this is your place."
