Vivanta Colombo, Airport Garden

Hotel was close to the airport but not noisy, set in wonderful quiet grounds, ideal for an evening walk away from the mad traffic! We had a room on the 3rd floor, very spacious with a good sized bathroom. Shower was excellent! Breakfast was buffet style and lots of choice. We ate in both restaurants and had good meals both times. The swimming pool was large, clean and there were very few people there! Changing rooms were close by the pool so you didn't have to wander through the hotel in swimming gear and there was a gym next door. Denzil from the tour desk gets our particular thanks! He arranged a tour of Negombo for us and while we were out, he sorted out our return flights for us, as we had explained that our original return flights had been cancelled. The manager, the reception staff and the duty manager, Chaya were all wonderful and helpful. Thank you everyone!

They have a buffet and a Chinese Restaurant that were both open for our choice for dinner. We left very early for the airport so missed sany breakfast opportunity. This is very close to the airport.

Very so so place for the price.

Nice and calm hotel. Sandeepa was a very good hostess, thanks.

Close to the airport

Hôtel very noisy : you can expect plane noises but not only. Because most of the airplanes crew sleep in this hotel, rooms are cleaned up during the night too. We have been waking up at 4am by someone cleaning up the room next door when we actually arrived late at night. There was plenty of Moscitos in our room also. Also breakfast is very late (not before 7am) … surprisingly for a hotel so close to airport.

A mixed experience. The entrance is lovely with palm trees, but the hotel doesn’t match the photos online. The check-in staff seemed disinterested, though the bellhop was friendly, and juice, cookies, and fruit upon arrival were appreciated. The hotel is basic and in need of updates. The bed was comfortable, but the furniture had dings and scratches, the couch had stains, and there was mold on the window covering. Hallways on our non-smoking floor smelled faintly of stale cigarettes. Dinner was excellent, and all restaurant staff were helpful, though breakfast lacked flavor. Okay for a short stay near the airport.

Very clean and convenient for the Airport

all was very good
