It there were 6 stars, they’d get every one and have earned it. Beautiful place. Amazing staff. Buffets are delicious and plentiful. Rooftop (pool, spas, park, bar…) are incredible. Bridge to mall with restaurants, spa, movie theater, shops… Hotel offers free City Tours daily. 10 minutes south with hotel shuttle and you are at the Marino Beach Lounge (right on the beach)…perfect spot. Staff are some of the nicest people I’ve met One of my favorite places in my travels. 🙏

The property was the most luxurious hotel we stayed in all of Sri Lanka! And we had some of the best food at the hotel, and also had quite a variety of cuisines to choose from various restaurants. The interior designs of the building was spectacular. The gym was spacious and we really loved the infinity pool. The live music and evening tea at Ahasa was one of the highlights of our stay. And most importantly, we met some of the most friendly staff at the property.

My stay at the Sheraton Colombo was nothing short of spectacular. I was greeted with warm hospitality and a level of professionalism that truly sets this hotel apart. The staff went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect, making me feel both welcomed and valued throughout my visit. The rooms are spacious, elegantly designed, and impeccably clean, offering breathtaking views of the city and ocean. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the amenities provided were top-notch, ensuring a luxurious and restful stay. The facilities are outstanding. Everything is maintained to the highest standard, creating an atmosphere of calm and sophistication. Sheraton Colombo is a true gem in the heart of the city. Whether you're traveling for business or leisure, I cannot recommend this hotel enough. I look forward to returning for another unforgettable experience!

What guests said about Kelaniya:

Kelaniya is a quiet suburb of Colombo, located on the Divine...

Kelaniya is a quiet suburb of Colombo, located on the Divine Kelani Ganga River. The most significant aspect of Kelaniya is the Maha Raja Vihara, the sacred place where Lord Buddha stayed and delivered sermon on Dharma, and the sacred Kelani Ganga where Lord Buddha took bath. It is a 2,500 year old Stupa and temple with an equally old Bodhi Tree, which create a deep spiritual vibration at the place. Lord Buddha's relics are also preserved in a temple here. It is often visited by some of the most devotional monks and householders here. The campus also hosts a temple dedicated to Lord Vibhishana. There is also a small temple to mark the point where Lord Buddha took bath in the Holy Kelani Ganga river. The river front offers a very peaceful and beautiful scene, for meditation, worship, relaxation and nature love. There is another ancient temple on the other side of the river, which some say is the original 2500 yr old temple, which can be reached by a ferry. Besides this historical & spiritual place, there is nothing much to see around. Kelaniya is otherwise a heavy vehicle maintenance hub. It has all ATMs and supermarkets. But, limited food options. Only a few good restaurants and eateries near the Mahavihara. Sri Vihara is the best for vegetarian foods. Sunisa take away & Balasooriya North Indian are the best for non-veg.
