“Hotel is modern and well equipped. Room is comfortably spacious, good bed, bathroom very clean. Very small pool rooftop for dipping but not very inviting. Breakfast is good and coffee is excellent. Staff received us at 1 AM on arrival, much appreciated Location is on a very quiet side street, overall very quiet. It's a great value.” Read more

“The staff was helpful and accommodating. They were able to answer our questions and offer suggestions. They ordered us a taxi and made breakfast quickly as we were on a time crunch. One thing to note, this hotel does not have an elevator. ”

“My husband and I spent three nights at the Lavonca Hotel. We had a wonderful experience. The room itself was big enough for the two of us to move around freely. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was nicely tiled. The hotel also had a clean, cool roof pool that came in quite handy as the weather was in the 90s throughout our stay. The hotel also provided us with delicious breakfast, though it wasn’t authentically Sri Lankan. Nevertheless, it was a very pleasant way to start each morning. And finally the fellow that runs the place was one of the most helpful hotel employees that we have ever encountered - and we’ve traveled extensively all over the world. There was no favor too small that he wasn’t willing to assist us with. As we have never been to Sri Lanka before and had just arrived from the States after 24 hours of traveling, having an informative, kind host that spoke pretty good English was just “what the doctor ordered.” We completely recommend the Lavonca Hotel. ” Read more

“We only stayed for a night after our flight arriving very early.. they were happy to give us an early check in so we could crash:) the location is great.. pool and chill area on the roof were nicely done and appreciated.. ”

“Very clean rooms, great location, and very quiet. Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Roof top pool and deck was an added bonus. Was a great place to stay when arriving in Colombo. Would stay there again for sure!”

“Staff. People where extremely helpful and nice, sharing information and advice”

“Desha and Anthony were the most gracious and attentive hosts - kind, caring and extremely informative. The room was very large for the three of us and we enjoyed the pool and deck. Breakfasts were delicious - including the ripest papaya, juicy pineapple, quenching watermelon and sweet banana, warm toast with jam, coffee, and eggs Sri Lanka style! Thank you to all the staff that welcomed us to their beautiful, friendly and secure resplendent island.” Read more
