Colombo isn't the best place for scenery in Sri Lanka...
Colombo isn't the best place for scenery in Sri Lanka not that you can't find decent scenery but in comparison obviously the countryside is better. But Colombo does provide easy access to such areas through bus and train making it the first and pretty much a necessary stop. However you can still find some great historic buildings, museums, interesting landmarks and some pretty tasty local delicacies.
Getting around the city is fairly easy. Tuk tuk rides are fun and cheap and unless you have a really heavy backpack you can walk around for quite sometime too. Depending on your background you may feel that it's too hot for walking but I didn't feel it to be so. At least not in August which is when I visited.
There is a wide variety of restaurants especially close to Galle face Green and South of Galle Face Green which is the place to go for an easy food tour.
There are some Halal restaurants and Mosques for Muslims notably Fazly's Halal Refreshments along with many others. I wouldn't list too many as you can easily find them via the Internet and restaurant apps like Zomato.
I liked the architecture of the Red Mosque and if you are interested in Sri Lankan culture and history the National Museum is recommended.
If you want to do something adventurous like learning to ride your first horse, I recommend Premadasa Riding School near Nugegoda Bus Station and of course since Colombo is a transportation hub you'll find a lot more once you take a few trains or buses to nearby cities and towns.

There was traffic so better you rent a car per day rather than by Uber.
You should have lunch or dinner at August by Mama Mia restaurant to enjoy the moslem food and do not forget to have reservation and come earlier.

Viharamahadevi Park is a beautiful spot to rest & relax.
Viharamahadevi Park is a beautiful spot to rest & relax. Grab an ice cream from one of the many travelling carts and go for a walk along the river or sit and watch kids play cricket on the grass.
Then hit up Liberty Cinemas and catch a movie! Movie theatres are well air conditioned, popcorn is tasty and seats recline. It was a great spot to watch Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again (twice).

Lovely beaches nice resorts .mountains greenery Going to Galle is breeze now with the new freeway the local food is delicious if you like spicy food so Is the Chinese food. Getting about is a bit difficult as there is too much traffic but the three wheeler (tuk tuk) will take you to your destination faster. The shopping is good and so is the price. Except for the humidity everything is lovely.

Colombo is a city with more than a million inhabitants.
Colombo is a city with more than a million inhabitants. We stayed in Cinnamon Grand which is a fantastic hotel with six restaurants. It is also in the heart of Colombo. Traffic in Colombo is really bad and any American should driving in town. The food is terrific but hot and spicy. If you are ok with TexMex then you may be ok with the local food. However, you can get any type of food in Colombo. If do not care of very hot food, you may ask the waiter to make your food milder.
The city of Colombo was built by British in the 19th century. It has typical English colonial town flavor. You can get high tea and Marmite there. There are double decker buses and red post boxes in town. In Colombo, most people speak in British English. If you are tea drinker, you can buy excellent teas in Colombo.
The city is relatively clean. If you are a wine drinker, your choices are not much and also expensive. You may take few bottle of wine with you. In Colombo Fort area, there are lot of good shopping areas. The Dutch Hospital is one of them
“Excellent hotel with very close proximity to malls attractions and centrally located in a diplomatic area of Colombo. The staff is great and delivers beyond expectation. I've stayed before a year ago and recommend the consistency in standards.... Will return every time I visit Colombo on work”
“Dont go to any other hotel in colombo, Marino beach hotel is the best, sea view, best infinity pool, best restaurant view and it has a direct access to marino mall “Shopping mall with restaurants, coffee shops and ATMs””
“Everything was just perfect : room, staff, food, decor, ambiance and we r glad to say that having tried a few hotels in Colombo , all with their own disappointment, finally this hotel seems to be everything one would expect from a high star hotel! I was particularly impressed at the friendliness and specially at the professionalism of the staff .”
“I would like to start first with the owner of the property. Mr. Kavin is so generous, kind, hospitable, and helpful. He is so smart, educated and speaks perfect English. The room was so clean and tidy. The food provided there was so tasty and filling. We had the best tea in Sri Lanka there. Thanks to veryone there at Colombo Riverdale Hotel who created a nice family atmosphere and made me and my family feel like home. ”
“Staff were excellent, very much concerned about my son's safety. They are the best.
Room service was excellent. They will arrange airport transfers and trips at very reasonable price. Though hotel looked small from outside rooms were quite good with all facilities for a 4 star hotel. They have nice terrace with a small pool too. Comfortable check in and check out.
Sea view rooms.
Nice property for a short stay in Colombo. Definitely worth a stay!”
“We kinda overlook the word apartment and got confuse during check in when the receptionist told that all 3 of us are in a same house. But it was not a big issue since there are 3 rooms with private bathroom.”
“The room’s design is modern with a personalized message on the TV and comfortable beds. The location is fantastic as you can walk 5 minutes to nearby restaurants and a short ride to the beach.”
