The best thing about this hotel is that it is just a couple of minutes walk from where you need to board your next flight. ( You need to wake up only an hour before boarding) The stay is basic but comfortable. A walk around and you could reach the duty frees easily. The Food Vouchers which the Hotel gives... More

It's the best because it's the only transit hotel inside. I've stayed in here a couple of times before even though I wasn't 'in transit' (fyi, they'll ask for your boarding pass upon check in). Rooms are pretty much the same. All were large and spacious enough for the price they offered although design was pretty much simple. It can... More

SERENDIVA COLOMBO TRANSIT is located right in the Bandenaraike International airport on the second level. I have not made a reservation - this hotel has been given me by "Sri Lankan Airways" as a transit one for overnight on my returning way from Bangkok to Moscow . The company had just entered the Russian market and in order to gain... More

For a six hour stay the hotel charges $ 55/- After a relaxing sleep, you can have a quick shower before boarding your next flight. Toiletries was... More

Anyone looking to catch a few winks of sleep while transiting through Colombo should consider this transit hotel. You'll need a boarding pass to stay here, since the hotel is located inside the airport. We traveled (family of four, one 8 year old and one 3 year old) on our way from HK to Male and had a six hour... More
