Convenient to the airport, very welcoming staff, good breakfast, good communications. We used this basic hotel for a quick night's rest upon arrival at the airport. The boutique hotel is a converted home with antique furnishings including beds with mosquito nets. Good value for the money, and appropriate for a stopover.
I chose this hotel because it is close to the airport and after a long exhausting flight I knew I would want a nice cozy bed. Accosted by taxi drivers AR the airport I knew I wanted a less expensive tuk tuk. One guy told me I have a tuk tuk let's go, well he lied it was a taxi. He told me he would give a food price. Finding the hotel is tricky from hotels.com so he called the hotel and knew where to go. It is also known as Ceylon villa. I paid 700 rps, it should be around 3-400 at most but I was tired and for a couple dollars who cares. Once at the hotel, it is so clean and nice and they make you feel right at home. I was welcomed with a very nice drink and warm smiles. Buses are convenient to go to Colombo or Nehambo. I love Street food and a 2 minute walk to the corner is this guy cooking in the window. He'll make you great fresh food. You can grab some spicy veggie roti amd other options. I'd rather stay here than in downtown Colombo. It's a quiet neighborhood and you can hear the planes but that doesn't bother me.
4.5 stars
This was a great location to stay. Close to the airport. The only problem is that the hotel is not well known by the name "the Castle".

Sejour correct dans belle casa
Séjour correct dans cette belle casa malgré présence de deux cafards. Logement pratique pour un sejour de transit car proximité de l'aéroport à 15 minutes en voiture. Le personnel est très gentil. La navette gratuite de l'aéroport au logement est très appréciable. Les fish deviled et prawns deviled étaient succulents.
