Cinnamon Life Colombo is a stunning, brand-new 5-star property that defines luxury. The service is impeccable, and the variety of restaurants is outstanding—Quizzine buffet is fantastic, the Chinese restaurant is amazing, and the rooftop bar offers breathtaking views. The poolside “Dreams and Beats” experience is a perfect way to unwind with great music and cocktails. While Colombo itself doesn’t have much to do, a stay at this property makes visiting the city absolutely worth it—whether as a grand start to your Sri Lanka trip or a luxurious way to end it. Highly recommended! Once the mall and casino opens up in September and all the 800 rooms go full, this place will be a micro vegas!

The location is beautiful - in a leafy suburb of Colombo where the pace is gentle. The gardens are delightful and made such a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The guesthouse itself is special - open pavilion-style lounge area with an indoor courtyard letting in natural light. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and well appointed. Breakfast was delicious. There's a choice of western or local breakfast, and if you feel adventurous, the hosts explain ingredients, how to prepare and eat the breakfast. It's honestly so delicious. The hosts are friendly, kind and knowledgeable. It was easy to communicate and to come and go as you need. Restaurants nearby are walking distance for lunch / dinner. It's easy for tuktuks or taxis to get you there and away as you need with attractions like Barefoot very nearby. If you're travelling alone, it's perfect - you feel safe and comfortable to spend time alone or engage with hosts and other guests as you like.
