Every space - from the kitchen, to the bathrooms, to the bedrooms - is brand new and the design/furniture is so minimalist, which I have found eye-pleasing. Common areas well furnished and bathrooms always impeccable. Extremely comfortable bed. The location is close to supermarkets and nice cafes, and the area is very quiet. The staff is also wonderful. When they knew that at the airport my suitcase had been misplaced, they immediately tried to help me as much as possible. Caring people who take great care of their hostel and their guests! :) No better place to stay in Colombo!

We made a last minute decision to spend a night in Colombo and were drawn to Sesaya Poshtel & Bistro—a stylish new addition to the city’s hospitality scene. The experience impressed us from the outset. After making the reservation, we were pleasantly surprised by the proactive communication from the team. Chalani and Ayesha reached out promptly to confirm our preferences, and upon arrival, they greeted us with genuine warmth. To our delight, we were also personally welcomed by General Manager Rajith, a gesture that perfectly reflected the hotel’s dedication to personalized service. The highlight of our visit was dinner at the rooftop bistro—a comfortable space with a lively atmosphere. Shenal, the Food & Beverage Manager, and his courteous assistant ensured our meal was seamless and memorable. We started with the Paprika Hummus, which offered a smoky, well-seasoned richness that paired beautifully with our chosen wine. Next came the Pulled Beef Tacos, a dish that exceeded expectations. While Sri Lankan beef is known for its flavor, it can often be tough—however, this version was melt-in-your-mouth tender, infused with deep, satisfying flavors. The Crispy Skin Barramundi was another standout: perfectly seared skin atop delicately cooked fish, complemented by a creamy sauce that elevated the dish without overwhelming it. Throughout our stay, every team member went out of their way to make us feel truly valued. The thoughtful farewell from each staff member who assisted us left a heartwarming and memorable impression.

Colombo downtown monkey is centrally located in the heart of Colombo just a short 5-minute walk from you Colombo’s main Railway and Bus Station. Guests can also check-out the peaceful Beira Lake.
