If you're looking for an oasis inside the city, the Highbury is the place. I stayed on a long term business trip, and it was exactly what I was looking for after long work days. The accomodations are clean, WiFi strong, and the owners are kind and welcoming. The stay is a short Tuktuk ride away from major attractions and has some great restaurants nearby.

The hospitality of the owners is impressive. Located in a quiet and peaceful area, this hotel awakens our artistic sensibilities with its well-maintained garden and the fusion of indoor and courtyard spaces. Listening to the sounds of wild birds as the morning sun pours in is soothing. I highly recommend staying for an extended period of time.

Love the boutique and historical style plus the personal attentiveness by the owner operators … a beautiful experience of Sri Lanka’s hospitality

The location, the place, the hosts, everything was just perfect!. In a quiet(er) neighbourhood of Colombo, Highbury Colombo is a lovely open aired house with several living areas. Our host greeted us, a family of 5,(3 children aged 9, 8 and 5), and led us to our generous quarters where we could all fit alongside a kitchenette and a shower bathroom. Ample information was dispensed about the area, notably the beach, a short stroll away. We stayed only one night but we would love to come back for more!

Exceptionally friendly service. Very beautiful house and wonderful garden - a little paradise in the center of the city. Everything is easily accessible from there. We received lots of great tips for our activities in the city. We would love to come back. Highly recommended.

We couldnt think of a better place to arrive after having an exhausting flight and a slight cultural shock. The hosts are incredibly friendly and helpful and the breakfast is among the best we have enjoyed throughout our travels in Sri Lanka! And yes, the house is as beautiful as on the picture :)

I stayed here solo when I visited 7 years ago. The rooms are so comfortable and clean and the hospitality has not changed. Will always be my go to when visiting Columbo. Make sure you get the breakfast!

This is a very nice private home in the middle of a beautiful and lushious garden, the house must be the work of a good architect full of elegant details and with nice art pieces and furniture. Our ac bedroom on the last floor was spacious and with a small terrace. The bathroom could do with some maintenance but we had a very good time in a welcoming and pleasant environment. The owners are polite and very kind people, the evening of our arrival they prepared a good dinner for us and the breakfast in the garden was a delight. The location is a bit away from the main "attractions", which isn't a big deal with the millions of Tuc Tucs around, but after a day of sightseeing in busy and chaotic Colombo we really appreciated the quiet of the house in the Highbury garden.

I booked with Highbury Colombo via *********** and cancelled the next day. They still have not refunded the monies they so quickly took from my account. They apologise for forgetting and then do not respond. Beware, do not deal with this hotel.
