Lanka Hostels Colombo

In the heart of central Colombo, a top-rated hostel just off the city's diplomatic quarter. You're a short walk from shopping, beaches, casinos and late-night spots. Public transport links are close by and the central bus stand sits a few kilometers away.

Born as a backpacker favorite, this hostel keeps the 'feel-at-home' vibe but stepped up the comforts. Rooms are air-conditioned and include flat-screen TVs and private balconies or patios. Dorms with AC, crisp clean bathrooms with complimentary toiletries, and an outdoor pool make it easy to chill after a day of exploring.

Outdoor pool, nightclub vibes nearby, and communal barbecue grills. 24-hour reception, free self-parking on site, laundry and luggage storage. Shuttle services and a roundtrip airport shuttle are available for a surcharge. Expect sea-breeze mornings when you step out toward the nearby shore.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property keeps you connected. Concierge services and 24-hour front desk support make arrivals and last-minute plans easy.

On-site coffee shop/café and a bar/lounge serve quick bites and drinks. Continental breakfast is available. Communal grills add a casual, social way to eat and meet fellow travelers.
