  • The jacuzzi at Colombo Court set before an antique arched door, palms on either side.

    The jacuzzi

    Warm water, gentle bubbles and a quiet garden setting make the jacuzzi an easy place to unwind after a day in the city.

  • The gym at Colombo Court, a rack of dumbbells and a bench with the treadmill and the pool through the window.

    The gym

    A compact fitness room with free weights, cardio equipment and a view of the garden, covering the essentials for keeping up your routine.

    The garden

    Greenery surrounds the heart of the hotel, giving you space to walk, sit quietly or simply spend time outdoors away from Colombo’s busy streets.

The quiet hours

A library with a past.

Behind a wall of glass beside the garden, our library is a small, quiet space with floor-to-ceiling shelves, deep leather armchairs and a table for eight. It is filled with books, old magazines and almost a century of National Geographic issues, giving you plenty to browse when you feel like putting your phone away.

The library is available to hotel guests and is rarely busy, making it an easy place to spend an hour after breakfast or lunch, read, catch up on some work or simply enjoy the quiet. The table can also be used for small private conversations or meetings, with the door closed when you need a little more privacy.

While you are here

The practical things, done properly.

    Have your clothes washed, pressed or dry cleaned without leaving the hotel. Collection is available from your room, and our team will confirm the expected return time when you make the request.

  • A concierge who knows Colombo

    Need a restaurant recommendation, a car for the afternoon or somewhere interesting to explore? Our team can help arrange your plans and share suggestions based on what you enjoy.

  • Dinner in your room

    Enjoy dishes from the same kitchen that serves Amber Poolside and Cloud Café & Bar. Ask for the in-room menu, or speak with our team if there is something specific you would like.

  • An iron, a board & shoe shine

    Iron and ironing boards are provided in every Suite and can be brought to other rooms on request. Leave your shoes with us for a little polish before heading out for the evening.

  • A room for work

    For meetings and focused work, the Scarlet Room accommodates up to 30 guests with a projector and screen. The Library offers a quieter setting for smaller groups of up to eight. Both can be booked by the half day or full day.

  • Turndown service

    Return in the evening to a room prepared for the night. Our team can refresh the space, draw the curtains and make sure everything is comfortable before you settle in.

Behind the scenes, we use solar water heating, collect rainwater, fit LED lighting and use recycled paper. Read more on our Sustainability page.
