The apartment was very clean, spacious, well equipped and well maintained. Kitchen utensils, complimentary items (tea/coffee/sugar), pepper, salt and oil were available free of charge for the guests with constant water supply. Very safe environment for solo travellers especially ladies with calm and quiet surrounding. Conveniently located with easy access to supermarkets, hospitals and food outlets etc. Highly recommended and definitely will make another visit in the future. 🙂

Tamarind Villa is a seamless blend of modern luxury and timeless charm. The villa’s tasteful antique furniture exudes grandeur, beautifully complemented by contemporary amenities like air conditioning, a jacuzzi, a mini gym, and a fully equipped kitchen with the latest appliances. The spacious verandah is a highlight, offering a serene view of the lush, green lawn. It's the perfect spot to unwind with a cup of tea and embrace the slower pace of life. Despite its tranquil ambiance, the villa is conveniently located in the heart of Kelaniya, just a short distance from the iconic Kelaniya Temple. The breakfast we ordered was a delight—fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The staff stood out for their friendliness and attentiveness, ensuring our stay was comfortable. However there is a minor drawback. Finding the villa can be challenging as there is no board displaying its name. Adding clear directions or a visible sign board would greatly enhance the overall experience. Overall , Tamarind villa is an excellent retreat for anyone seeking a luxurious and peaceful getaway with a touch of history.

Great, very new Hotel in great Location towards the attractions of Colombo with very clean rooms in a good size and great pools and many restaurants and bars. Extraordinarily helpful and friendly staff throughout the hotel, from the great welcoming staff in the Lobby, to the Front Desk, to Housekeeping (Sanju in Floor 9 was great!), the Head Sommelier Wellington, the staff in the restaurants and bars, and all Security Guards and other staff throughout the Hotel. While the Hotel itself is great and on 5-Star level, the staff made the experience extraordinary. Staying here at the end of our two week Sri Lanka trip was a perfect last Sri Lanka experience.

    Kelaniya is a quiet suburb of Colombo, located on the Divine Kelani Ganga River. The most significant aspect of Kelaniya is the Maha Raja Vihara, the sacred place where Lord Buddha stayed and delivered sermon on Dharma, and the sacred Kelani Ganga where Lord Buddha took bath. It is a 2,500 year old Stupa and temple with an equally old Bodhi Tree, which create a deep spiritual vibration at the place. Lord Buddha's relics are also preserved in a temple here. It is often visited by some of the most devotional monks and householders here. The campus also hosts a temple dedicated to Lord Vibhishana. There is also a small temple to mark the point where Lord Buddha took bath in the Holy Kelani Ganga river. The river front offers a very peaceful and beautiful scene, for meditation, worship, relaxation and nature love. There is another ancient temple on the other side of the river, which some say is the original 2500 yr old temple, which can be reached by a ferry. Besides this historical & spiritual place, there is nothing much to see around. Kelaniya is otherwise a heavy vehicle maintenance hub. It has all ATMs and supermarkets. But, limited food options. Only a few good restaurants and eateries near the Mahavihara. Sri Vihara is the best for vegetarian foods. Sunisa take away & Balasooriya North Indian are the best for non-veg.
