John and his wife at the Colombo Haven carried us around on a pillow. They also set up a excellent tour of Sri Lanka for us. John also brought in his cousin with some oil paintings from his art gallery. They cooked dinner, lunch and breakfast for us. We considered it gourmet Sri Lanka food. The rooms were large and...

Jonathan, the owner of Colombo Haven, and his family were very kind guests. Jonathan has the attitude that guests are on vacation and should not have to worry about anything, and will help you with any problems that may arise. I was having issues with my credit card, and Jonathan was quick to assist, accepting an online transfer and giving... More

Stayed at this place only for one night after came to sri lanka,this city was very busy,but lots of things to do,unfortunately we did not have much time to spend,the guest house was not excellent but everything was ok,the staff are very friendly and helpful,recommending this place for one night

We had the room on the top floor with terrace. Room looked ok at first sight, but don't look under or behind the bed. Bathroom is basic although with a modern shower. Lots of mosquitos in the room and no net. Terrace looked shabby with lots of building materials lying around. Rather noisy day and night. Breakfast was basic. Eggs,... More

I wish we had only stayed 1 day in Colombo. The area around Galle Face Hotel, lake and old town were interesting but not much else. Accommodation is expensive, the best value places are booked up quickly. This B&B charges extra for breakfast, so not really a B&B. Location ok, bit of a walk to town, some tuk tuks couldn't... More

Colombo Haven B&B truly is a hidden gem in Colombo 3 (Kollupitiya). Yes, the best way to reach Colombo Haven by taxi or tuk-tuk is to refer to the Carnival ice cream parlor, but the B&B is located down along an alley past the ice cream parlor. As many others have pointed out, the manager of the property, John, is... More

Don't be put off by the rather unattractive alleyway by the ice cream parlour that leads to this place, or by its modest exterior. Inside our room was spacious and clean, as was the bathroom. The wi-fi was good and the tv had more than the usual number of channels. The room had a good a/c and the bed and... More

This little B&B is hidden behind Carnival Ice Cream Parlor's parking lot. Our pickup driver couldn't locate the B&B until calling them for direction. But don't let this scare you away. Once you can locate the B&B, you will soon realize that the location is quite ideal. Away from the main roads means quiet atmosphere. There is a supermarket nearby... More

arriving as many of the flights do in the middle of the night , it was a wonderful relief to be met by our driver from colombo haven and taken to this small B and B and welcomed so warmly. As we were a group of two families [ten in all] we filled each of the four rooms at Colombo... More
