Featuring a balcony with city views, a garden and a bar, Dolce Italia Rooms can be found in Colombo, close to Milagiriya Beach and 1.8 km from Bambalapitiya Railway Station. Boasting a 24-hour front desk, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. The guest house features rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. Very cozy, clean and cute place to stay. Very close to Havelock City Mall. Room was big, there was a/c. Stuff was extremely helpful and friendly, I appreciated them. I got wine and chocolate Canolo and got breakfast in the morning, everything was yummy. I wish I could have a more time to enjoy the room and Italian food. I will definitely come back again.

The air-conditioned guest house consists of 1 bedroom, a living room, a fully equipped kitchenette with a toaster and a coffee machine, and 1 bathroom with a bidet and slippers. A private entrance leads guests into the guest house, where they can enjoy some fruits. The guest house offers bed linen, towels and ironing service. Looking for history without kitsch I discovered this discrete Guesthouse . Away from the crowds of Colombo, the spacious room and antique charm gave me a fantastic rest after exploring Sri Lanka’s capital. With all the qualities of a classic hotel I could enjoy style and comfort while maintaining the privacy of home.

St Anthony's Church is 43 km from the guest house, while Sinhalese Sports Club is 5.9 km away. Cleanest place I have ever lived in entire Sri Lanka. It’s really spotless with all (shared) amenities you would ever need for a short stay: immaculate bathroom, kitchen, living room etc. I visited Colombo to extend my visa only to I discover that immigration was closed for public holidays.. this place was such a relief. The owners are super helpful too. Highly recommend it. 🤗
