island hostels in colombo surpassed my expectations! their friendly staff, especially kasun, made my trip to sigiriya a breeze. communication was easy as they accommodated my deafness. the hostel itself is a gem - beautiful house, pool, and great location. it's better than a hotel, allowing you to meet new people and make friends. a perfect stay in colombo!

The beds in the dorm room were incredibly comfortable, and each bed had its own individual locker, lights, and plug sockets. the showers provided warm water, and the breakfast was delicious. the location was convenient, being centrally located yet tucked away at the end of a street for a quieter atmosphere. the building itself was grand and had a lovely spacious garden area where we could relax and socialize with other travelers. the kitchen and lounge areas were cool and well-equipped. it was an excellent place to stay, and we would definitely stay again. Cons: Don't have any issues at all. 👍.

I recently had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. the location is perfect as it is situated in a quiet area yet still conveniently close to the train station. Secondly, the rooms are in really good condition with private bathrooms and AC, providing excellent comfort. Lastly, the breakfast included in the price was a nice touch, ensuring a great start to the day.
All was fine during my stay at this hotel.

This hotel offers great value for money, with prices that won't break the bank. The attention to detail in the rooms, with their pod-style beds and basic amenities, is impressive. The location is perfect, neither too close to the train station nor in a congested area.
All was well, no improvements needed.

Great location with lots of nearby restaurants and attractions. The complementary Wi-Fi and breakfast were a nice touch. Beds were comfortable and allowed for privacy.
The cleanliness of the bathrooms was inconsistent and needed more attention. Staff were not very welcoming and seemed annoyed by simple requests.

The hostel is equipped with basic amenities, such as a water dispenser for filling up water bottles, comfortable beds with storage drawers and charging plugs, and a pool area with bean bags for relaxation.
One negative aspect mentioned by a reviewer was the cleanliness of the pool, indicating that it was not well-maintained.

What a wonderful stay at Island Hostels! The cleanliness and comfort of the accommodations were top-notch. The beds provided privacy and ample space to store our belongings. The hostel's location offered a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. We also enjoyed the convenience of having a nice restaurant nearby. Highly recommended!

Looking for a spot near the railway station, this hotel should be high on your list! the location is so convenient, and you'll appreciate its proximity to transport links. Rooms are comfy and the breakfast was delicious. But the view from this hotel! Stunning! the hotel's leisure facilities are worth mentioning - there's so much to do! If you're a vegetarian or vegan, you'll love the options here.
There was only one thing that needs improvement, but in the grand scheme of things, it's only a minor issue.

Staying at this hotel was a luxurious experience, with exclusive amenities that met our needs and exceeded our expectations. the swimming pool was a highlight of our stay, providing us with a stunning and refreshing oasis where we could relax and unwind. the private facilities, such as the spacious and comfortable rooms, were also exceptional, providing us with the perfect space to retreat to and rejuvenate after a long day exploring the city.
While our overall stay was exceptional, we did encounter one minor issue. We found that the wifi in our room was sometimes unreliable, which made it challenging to stay connected and productive.
