Colombo 07 Charming Home Stays

Comfortable clean room, value for money

Bathroom tiles need a bit more attention

Wir haben hier 2 Nächte verbracht und waren begeistert. Die Lage in Colombo 07 in einer bewachten Seitenstraße ist sehr schön und komfortabel, die Räume sind sehr liebevoll, heimelig und stylisch eingerichtet. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker und der Kontakt zur Vermieterin Gayathri sehr nett. Sie empfahl uns viele gute Orte in Colombo und wir lernten einiges über Sri Lankische Geschichte und das alltägliche Leben von ihr. Es war ein super Aufenthalt. Vielen Dank! 🙏

Located in a quiet, green and nice neighbourhood. The property is run by Gayatri who’s a friendly and chatty host. They had a water dispenser! And so many books. On the whole a lovely place.

Not so much that I didn’t like but the breakfast could be a little more varied.

One week business trip: 5 min. walking to conference venue BMICH (opposite: supermarket). My balcony room facing front (balcony access via shared dining room/kitchen, or just through opened window). For added privacy, just keep left curtain closed. Bright, clean room, bed with mosquito netting (largely decorative: both sockets supplied with insecticide vaporizers [transfluthrin]: using ~2 hrs/day should suffice). Air conditioner and ceiling fan -- using only the latter helped adjust to outside heat. Lovely, communicative host family and staff, breakfast in their quarters: fresh diced fruit, tomato & onion omelette, toast, butter, jam, milk tea (the more adventurously inclined might opt for local [spicy] offering - for me, amply supplied at conference catering). Clean bath with shower (right control for both water flow and temperature). Small refrigerator and tea kettle in room, fully equiped kitchen and dispenser for cooled drinking water on same floor. Safe location in gated community (manned barrier closing for the night).

Stay too short -- would've loved to stay longer to explore the city
