Top Ja-ela Hotel Reviews

colombo international airport hotel

8/10 Good

"It needs to be made clear that the hotel has no proper dining facilities other than a cafe area in reception. No bar available. Will be a great hotel when it’s finished but in the interim if you arrive unprepared you will need to leave the hotel to find somewhere to eat, get a drink etc."

Marino Beach Colombo

10/10 Excellent

"Marino Beach Hotel exceeded expectations. The staff provided exceptional, warm hospitality throughout our stay, ensuring every detail was handled with genuine care and absolute professionalism."

Granbell Hotel Colombo

10/10 Excellent

"We returned to this hotel because we liked it so much, and again loved the location and surroundings of it. The rooms are beautiful and comfortable. Due to the public holidays, it was very busy this time and the breakfast room seemed a bit overwhelmed, plus it was difficult to get a towel"

Amari Colombo Sri Lanka

10/10 Excellent

"A very nice hotel for family or business travelers. They have an extensive spread and multiple options for breakfast. The gym is good but the hot tub in spa needs cleaning,"

Galle Face Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely old hotel with spacious rooms, a great pool area and plenty of options for dining. The hotel is next to the Galle Green which has a real vibe in the evening. A special thanks to Devatha who looked after us and also ran the historic hotel tour which we loved."

Radisson Hotel Colombo

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel, great beds, quiet. Great view of the beach and outstanding morning breakfast. Highly recommended especially if you want to stay in a nice hotel!"

Jetwing Sea

10/10 Excellent

"Superb value, great facilities, convenient for the airport the morning after our stay. We ate in the restaurant in the evening and had a lovely, well presented meal. Service from all staff was excellent. Shower was one of the best of our whole stay in Sri Lanka. Great to have a cafetière and ground coffee in the room, the only hotel of our stay that provided this - amazing! We’d definitely stay again."

Taj Samudra

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, yummy food, friendly & helpful staff. Very clean & comfortable room."

Courtyard By Marriott Colombo

10/10 Excellent

"Clean & well maintained room & amenities. Only lobby is not very convenient to reach. Shopping or food option within same mall is good."
