They have 2 Jacuzzis with hot water and one with cold water. It’s open from 6am-11pm. Free city tour every day from 14:30-17:30. You go that day when you do check in or some other day during your stay.

Beautiful and comfortable place to stay and relax. The host gave us a warm and friendly welcome and greeted us around 9pm at night. The host is very helpful and accommodate to our special request. We stayed at 2 different rooms and both have their own unique and beautiful decorations. Love both rooms especially the bathrooms very much. Feel like having shower in the nature. It's a good place to stay at the end of our holiday trip and will remember it always.

My stay at the Sheraton Colombo was nothing short of spectacular. I was greeted with warm hospitality and a level of professionalism that truly sets this hotel apart. The staff went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect, making me feel both welcomed and valued throughout my visit. The rooms are spacious, elegantly designed, and impeccably clean, offering breathtaking views of the city and ocean. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the amenities provided were top-notch, ensuring a luxurious and restful stay. The facilities are outstanding. Everything is maintained to the highest standard, creating an atmosphere of calm and sophistication. Sheraton Colombo is a true gem in the heart of the city. Whether you're traveling for business or leisure, I cannot recommend this hotel enough. I look forward to returning for another unforgettable experience!

An exceptionally clean and spacious room in a quiet and green area outside Colombo. The bed and pillows were lovely and comfortable, which made for a restful night. There was a fridge and small kitchen area in the room, with a kettle, cups, plates, and basic utensils. The room had a TV, fan, and air conditioner. The bathroom is modern, with a lovely hot and cold walk-in shower. Soap and shampoo were provided. There was a large lounge and dining area separate to the sleeping area, available for my use. There was also a lovely veranda / balcony off the bedroom, with a table and 2 chairs to sit on. Gayathri was friendly and welcoming, and we had a lovely discussion upon my arrival. Breakfast is provided, but I left too early in the morning to enjoy this lovely addition.
