We stayed here for one night at the end of our trip and it was definitely the worst place we stayed. There was a lot of building work going on so the place was noisy and we were given a dark room that looked out onto a garage. The room was quite dirty and dusty. The service seemed pleasant but...

It took a while before the taxi driver could locate the villa. But when we fot there it was a perfect get-a-way from the hustle and bustle in Colombo. Most of the tuk-tuk drivers in this part of town drive by the metre so it was cheap to look around the city. They don't accept credit cards but there's an... More

Whilst the villa is not central, it is away from the hustle and bustle of Colombo and a few minutes walk away from the main road with a few shops and bus/taxi/tuk tuk options into Colombo. The taxi drivers and tuk tuk drivers all struggled to find the villa, so make sure you have the phone number handy so they... More

Beautiful guesthouse with a small but pretty garden in a quiet neighbourhood. The place is quite modern and nicely designed. We had a comfortable and spotlessly clean room with a/c, cable TV, and the very important fridge / minibar, and a good sized balcony. Very good breakfast. On the downside it is quite far from everything except the Zoo, approx.... More

We stayed here on 15th Nov and 24th Nov 2012 on our maiden trip to Srilanka.

We stayed here for a night. The owner had arranged an airport pickup and it was a very comfortable ride. This villa is in a very calm residential area (about 5 km from the heart of the city and hence a bit difficult to locate for the first time). It is tastefully decorated and very well-maintained. Since the villa was... More

We stayed here from 1st till 3rd January. When we arrived, we were very disappointed with our room. It was musky, dark and had a view of the garage. We asked the manager if he could move us to another room, and thankfully he did. We were moved to an upstairs room with a huge balcony (great for yoga) with... More

This hidden jewel in Colombo is well worth it. Villa is really impressive and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Area is nice and quiet, ideal for a couple looking for some quatily time during their trip. Our driver found this easily enough (for Colombo) Breakfast is not great, but then again, you're not paying a fortune. They also... More

We had a night stay at Silvikris, it was rather difficult for us to find the location on the first night of the arrival, if without the help of the locals for the directions. But the staff were rather great as he wait upon us arrival at the doorstep when we arrive. It was a great villa, clean and nice... More
