Great first stop in Sri Lanka. We arrived in the middle of night and were picked up within 10 minutes. They organised a driver for the next day to Sigiriya at a reasonable price (great driver by the way).

Simple but very nice homestay / hostel. Reminded me on classic budget accomodations years ago, which are hard to find nowadays. Has a small kitchen, nice bathroom and for it proximity to the airport a very nice and quiet garden. The host is amazingly friendly and very helpful. Would always come back!

We stayed for one night after arriving at the airport which is a very short Tuk-Tuk or taxi ride away. The room is very clean and cozy and there is everything you need. Mario and his family are such great hosts! Mario cares a lot for his guests and gave us plenty of useful information for our time in Sri Lanka. He explained us the bus connections to Kandy and even accompanied us to the bus station in the morning. We felt treated like friends and would definitely come back!

Sky hostel was great. It's a smaller hostel so it makes you feel at home. The staff was super helpful and I definitely recommend staying there if you're coming through colombo. It's close proximity to the airport and just a couple minutes walk to the beach

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location near airport! Ashan made sure I could arrive safely late at night and gave me heaps of advice on getting around Sri Lanka. I came back again at the end of my time in the country and he was super helpful in making sure I got to the airport in the early morning! The room was nice and clean. Lovely stay thank you so much!!!
