“Centrally located with colourful interiors - add to this an attractive price and Cinnamon Red attracts a fun, young crowd. Rooms are decorated with splashes of the hotel's signature red and feature good sized modern bathrooms. Cuisine is top notch including adaptations of Sri Lankan dishes. ”

Hotel review

Overlooking the Laccadive Sea, Cinnamon Red is set back from the main hustle and bustle of town yet still within easy reach: in fact walking distance from The National Museum and the popular Barefoot Cafe. Simple yet chic rooms feature cheerful murals proclaiming: "I Feel Good Today" which could be something to do with the sea views, free wifi and tea and coffee making facilities. Bright white modern bathrooms feature complimentary toiletries. A veritable feast is served for breakfast and included in the price, which features delicious Sri Lankan treats such as 'hoppers' and tropical fruits. The rooftop bar is also a great place to relax on an evening and take in the city lights. By day the rooftop pool is a popular spot. In addition to all this there is a 24 hour gym. A great stay for a great price. Popular amongst young couples.
