“Just 30 minutes from Colombo Airport, The Wallawwa is not your average airport hotel. This graceful, colonial building is decorated in the earthy hues of Sri Lanka. The restaurant serves delicious European and Sri Lankan cuisine. Head to the 'Z' spa for some pre or post flight pampering!”

Hotel review

This 200 year old former colonial manor house is much more than a conveniently located airport stopover. Regardless of your flight timings The Wallawwa is well worth the stay. If your stay here is brief then the entry category 'Wallawwa' rooms are more than comfortable; if you intend on staying longer (which you will certainly want to!) the Garden Suites are divine. Number 6 in particular offers the most seclusion. Whatever your stay, make time for one of the spas signature massages designed with travel weary limbs in mind.
