Very Nice small hotel in a quiet location in a residency area. Use to be a big residential house, but a few years ago made in to hotel. Good room, everything worked perfect. The staff was very helpful and kind, both after the booking and doing the stay. Thank you😊

Manoji and Manitha are a lovely couple and made me feel so welcomed and cared for in my first 24 hrs in Sri Lanka. They picked me up from the airport and were the perfect welcome to Colombo. the Highbury Colombo is a beautiful architecturally designed house and garden, and feels very secluded despite being in the big city. I had a very peaceful one night stay and a delicious homemade Sri Lankan breakfast in the morning before I left to the south coast. I would highly recommend the Highbury as a beautiful spot to stay in Colombo - I would absolutely go back :) thank you!

Definitely great value for money. The hosts were kind and welcoming, and everything met my expectations. As someone who works online, having a fast and reliable Wi-Fi connection was essential and it didn’t disappoint.

We liked all of it. The location was excellent and we couldn't believe that it was in the middle of Colombo. It was so peaceful and quiet and there seemed to always be a cool breeze blowing through the property. The property itself was lovely and was beautifully designed and decorated. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable with all the amenities one could require. We had dinner on our first day and breakfast the following morning. Dinner simply super. We had the cheesy pasta, vegetable spring rolls, mushroom soup and garlic bread. All of it was delicious and so well done. Breakfast the following morning was also great. We had the continental breakfast with the soufflé eggs. The fruit was fresh and soufflé eggs were light and fluffy. Finally, the staff were amazing. They were friendly and helpful right from the get got and we couldn't have asked for better service. Special shout-out to Hashan who helped us with our bags, food and the pool. He was awesome!
