Berjaya Hotel Colombo

On Mount Lavinia's shoreline in Colombo — a true beach hotel vibe just a short walk to the sand and about 15 minutes' drive from Colombo City Centre. Nearby highlights include Mount Lavinia Beach, Siddhalepa Ayurveda Hospital, the Traditional Puppet Art Museum and Dehiwala Zoological Garden.

Set among towering palms and landscaped gardens, the hotel blends a sprawling layout with relaxed seaside style. Rooms (95 total) are air-conditioned and often feature minibars, balconies or terraces, rainfall showers, coffee/tea makers, safes and cable TV for easy comfort.

Multiple pools (indoor and outdoor) plus a children's pool and playground make this a solid family-friendly pick. Enjoy a rooftop terrace and garden, barbecue areas and a banquet hall for social nights — and wake up to sea-breeze mornings just steps from the beach.

Conference and meeting rooms cater to business or event needs, with a 24-hour front desk and concierge on hand. Complimentary wireless internet, free valet parking and laundry/dry-cleaning services help keep trips running smoothly.

Two on-site restaurants (including The Peacock) plus a bar/pub offer casual dining and drinks. Buffet breakfast is served daily (07:00–10:00, for a fee) and limited room service is available.
