Charming spot behind Gangaramaya Temple with well-equipped, clean rooms. Deserves a 10/10 for owner and staff — they were so welcoming, friendly, and made my stay in Colombo feel even more special. You also enjoy a rooftop breakfast with views of the Lotus Tower. I’ll be back!

Great location, so convenient with a lot of embassy buildings, restaurants, and transportation options nearby. The staff is great friendly and very prompt. They even offered to help me print out some documents. The hostel beds are comfy, equipped with power sockets and a reading light, and clean and comfy beddings too. Plenty of bathrooms, spotless and with good pressure. The place is super spacious too, with a nice garden and parking space.

It was a magical stay, we only stayed one night when we'd just landed in SL and it was so stunning, comfortable, the most peaceful stay amongst the hustle and bustle of Colombo. Perfect for what we were after. The owners were super lovely and made us a delicious Sri Lankan breakfast in the morning before we headed south. Such a gorgeous accommodation and the room was big, peaceful, quiet and a great shower!

I recently stayed at Ceylon Stayz and had an excellent experience. The owner is exceptionally kind and the staff are friendly and helpful. The breakfast, especially the Sri Lankan options, is delicious. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with cozy beds. The location is perfect for a walk to the city center or accessing nearby bus stops. Ceylon Stayz offers incredible value for money. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a pleasant stay.

The location of the hotel is excellent, walking distance to city center. The view from the rooftop is amazing. The bedrooms are nice and comfortable, and the staff is very nice and helpful. Our bag packs didn’t arrive with us in the same flight so we had to wait and contact the airport to arrange the delivery at the hotel. Special thanks to Kalindu from the reception, he helped us a lot contacting the airport and the delivery guy, so we could get our bags as soon as possible, because we needed to leave next morning.

The owner was so lovely and always there to help when needed. The rooms were clean and comfortable and had everything I needed! Bathroom was good and the shower was lovely with good pressure and temperature! Location was perfect and so close to many places included the Havelock city mall. There was also a kitchen to use which was great! Such a lovely place to stay for a good price would highly recommend!

A very nice hotel and easily accessible. There was a very good restaurant on the floor with great menu to select and pay for lunch or dinner. My train to Kandy was at 6.30 AM, they provided me very tasty packed breakfast which was arranged sharp at 5.30AM on my request.The staff was great and very well behaved. They obliged me by keeping my extra luggage in their store for the duration, I travelled to Kandy and Nawara Eliya. Perfect place to stay.

Great location, really pleasant and clean rooms, but the thing that makes this such a good place to stay is the staff. We checked in very late, and they were just there ready to accommodate our needs. We also got an upgrade and a late check out.

I stayed here for 3 nights in April 2024. It's a good hotel with all the basic amenities, and very good service. The great location meant that the city centre and a lot of other things were in close proximity, and made it pretty good value for money
