Our go to hotel in Colombo
The Granbell is our favourite hotel whenever we are in Colombo. The staff are really friendly and very efficient, check in super fast. The infinity pool on the roof offers amazing views across to Port City and the 'Bar on Top ' is also situated on the roof and offers a great selection of food and drinks.

Take the time to explore Colombo because there are many hidden treasure troves.
Be kind to the locals- you are after all their guests in their city.
Eat in local cuisines- the best food.
Enjoy

End your Sri Lanka stay here!
We had a lovely stay at Granbell Hotel Colombo. It closed out our two week stay in Sri Lanka, and was one of our highlights. The hotel itself is modern, comfortable and well located. The rooms are incredibly well suited for couples - perfectly sized and with an amazing view (if you are debating, upgrade to a sea view)!
My only complaint is that the menu prices exclude VAT, and you are unaware of this until you receive your first bill! It means that the hotel is unfortunately very unreasonable for food and drink for Sri Lanka - but there are plenty of eating options in Colombo.

Convenient, easy to check in with 24 hour manned reception. The rooms were great, so was the pool and the view. Wouldn’t recommend the Japanese restaurant.

Not bad..
Tidy, fairly clean and modern hotel. Check in was a lot despite booking well in advance, paid for and checking in late at night and no one else around, seemed we were not expected which was odd. Reasonable location. Tuk Tuk drivers out the front (allegedly attached to hotel) were ruthless and attempted to scam and over charge us at every opportunity so use Pick Me App instead. Expensive drinks at roof top bar and coffees at cafe were more than we’d pay in Australia so don’t bother. Pool was good. Great view. House keeping was intermittent about replacing consumables supposedly complimentary, we struggled to get ice and items delivered to room despite following provided instructions. Okay overall but more difficult to navigate than it should have been
