"Best hotel and service I’ve ever received. The Ishq, and Asanga, as the staff servicing my trip, were incredible. I cancelled other hotels to come back to stay at the Ishq due to its service and staff. Nicest hotel in Colombo and the best staff! "
"Excellent hotel, staff couldn't have been kinder and more accomodating, great location near restaurants, shops and the National Museum and Natural History museum. Overall a brilliant stay"
"Beautiful oasis in Colombo: charming rooms, fantastic spa (best massage I’ve ever had!) and I highly recommend the cooking demonstration where the chefs will show you how to make Jaffna curries. A wonderful stay! "
"Geoffrey Bawa design absolutely charming. Staff very friendly and showed us around the vacant rooms which was a real treat. Fantastic breakfast in perfect surroundings. "
"This hotel is my regular choice every time I travel to Sri Lanka. The lobby and rooms are nicely designed with wooden handwork, and the staff are always smiling and friendly. This is my oasis, especially after a long, bustling business trip in other South Asian countries. "
"Clean and comfortable room with friendly and helpful staff. Good value for money in a good location in Colombo 7. Nice restaurant on the ground floor. "
"We had a fantastic stay at La Maison de Colombo! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and taken care of by the wonderful staff. A special thank you to Manager Chamara, who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and memorable. His hospitality truly made a difference!
Mornings were always a delight, thanks to Ifaas and Vijedran, who took great care of us with a delicious breakfast and friendly service. They made sure we started our day on the right note!

"Amazing stay at what used to be the president’s mansion. Located in Colombo 7 with most of the embassies and other mansions. Staff were wonderful and the room was huge. Deep bath with jets provided too. "
"The whole experience was wonderful from being collected at the airport and walking in the front door. Very welcoming, great staff and service, room was beautifully done, rooftop areas were brilliant and restaurants and food all very high standards. Only downsides I can think were that there was no private changing spaces in ladies poolside facilities and the live music and entertainment going on at weekends was too loud and went on until 1am so I had a couple of nights where I struggled to sleep. Apart from that, wonderful stay and would recommend. "
"We had a lovely stay at Granbell Hotel Colombo. It closed out our two week stay in Sri Lanka, and was one of our highlights. The hotel itself is modern, comfortable and well located. The rooms are incredibly well suited for couples - perfectly sized and with an amazing view (if you are debating, upgrade to a sea view)!
My only complaint is that the menu prices exclude VAT, and you are unaware of this until you receive your first bill! It means that the hotel is unfortunately very unreasonable for food and drink for Sri Lanka - but there are plenty of eating options in Colombo."
