We went to Sri Lanka to celebrate my birthday and choosing Casa Colombo was definitely the best choice we could have made. I would definitely go back to the hotel. The property was not very big, but tastefully done. However, what set it apart was the hospitality by the staff. We were assigned a personal butler and I must say... More

I had a great time at Casa Colombo when visiting the city recently for a business trip. The concept of the hotel is special and unique in the city. A highly hip, modern, funky hotel set in colonial building setting. The room I stayed in, a Traveller Suite, was very big, with a separate living room. I enjoyed the great... More

Stayed twice during a recent holiday. Room, team in the hotel, pool, breakfast, bar all superb. Real character and lots of thought in the details. Location is a bit away from other luxury hotels but a bonus as allows you to explore another part of town. There's always a handy tuk tuk = 5 mins or about £1.50. Always interesting... More

My Wife and I stayed at Casa Colombo with our baby daughter, the only down side was that we were only there for 10 hours in between connecting flights. Be warned, it is quite a long transfer from the airport - 90 minutes in a taxi ($25). However, if you make the effort you will be rewarded with a friendly... More

We stayed here for our first 2 nights in colombo. Rooms were very comfortable, spacious with everything you need in them. Very unconventional, but functional design. Set back from galle road it provides a quiet haven from the hectic Colombo city. Service was excellent and very personalized. We had Arrun as our personal butler that answered all of our questions...

Everything other Boutique Hotels claim to be but can only aspire too. Read other comments regarding the building and rooms which are every inch true. The attention to 'the experience' detail is exceptional, even the bedside drawers have power extension blocks inside for bedside laptop or phone charging etc.... the rooms even have printers!!! One word of caution, this is... More

Very swish hideout in a seemingly unlikely spot, down an alley between commercial buildings on a main road in central Colombo. Casa Colombo oozes atmosphere although the modern, design-forward vibe often pushes the limits for its own sake. Not to everyone’s taste and one can be left to wonder why such a stunning building with so much pedigree needs to... More

We stayed at Casa Colombo for two nights on a holiday to Sri Lanka. The hotel is EXCEPTIONAL in every way: a converted 200-year old house with remarkable designs in every corner; a relaxed atmosphere with excellent service; very friendly and attentive staff; and delicious food... a perfect combination. The hotel has a personal "Domo" for every room. Ours, Arrun,... More

Friends of ours recommended Casa Colombo to us, saying 'you just HAVE to stay here'. I can't agree more. Everything you could want in a small hotel, such a sanctuary from the (brilliant) hustle and bustle of Colombo. as I write, my wife is scrambling to get us one more night there, on our way out of Sri Lanka.

We finished our 12 day trip through Sri Lanka at Casa Colombo. Wow, what a place. Casa Colombo is a sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of the streets, as well as the heat. It is an amazing refurbished building with great little spaces to hide away in. The garden was nice and shady and the pink pool very relaxing.... More
