Hotels in Colombo
Browse Colombo hotels. Featuring Jetwing Colombo Seven, Taj Samudra and more.
Colombo is Sri Lanka's commercial capital and the arrival point for almost every visitor to the island. It is a working port city rather than a resort, layered with Portuguese, Dutch and British architecture and now a rising skyline of towers along the reclaimed Port City waterfront.
The Fort district holds the colonial banks and the restored Dutch Hospital, now a courtyard of restaurants. Pettah beyond it is a dense grid of market streets and the red-and-white striped Jami Ul-Alfar Mosque. Galle Face Green fills every evening with kite-flyers and food carts, and Gangaramaya Temple sits beside Beira Lake in the centre.
Many travellers give Colombo a day at either end of a trip, which is about right. Trains south along the coast to Galle run beside the beach, and the hill-country line to Kandy and Ella starts from Colombo Fort station.
