    It's charming apartment very close to lush gardens, truly enjoyed it. Food for breakfast was outstanding.

    I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for the warm welcome and the exceptional stay I had at this charming guesthouse. The room was absolutely gorgeous and provided utmost comfort, making my stay truly enjoyable. I found great solace in the peaceful garden, which was a perfect haven for relaxation. As a senior woman, I highly appreciated the easy accessibility throughout the property, allowing me to move around effortlessly. I must also mention the delectable Sri Lankan breakfast and dinner, which were an absolute delight for the taste buds. Lastly, a special thank you to Eresha for the excellent City Tour, which I highly recommend to fellow travelers.

    If I may suggest one improvement for a better vacation experience for senior people, it would be helpful to provide more detailed information about dinner, including prices, on the website. Additionally, the addition of a mosquito net or plug-in would ensure a more comfortable stay.

    Truly enjoyed my 1 night stay. The breakfast was excellent and had a lot of meals. I asked for double room and it was trendy with good privacy. Excellent service, even though a few employees were awful. The check-in was early and the atmosphere was special overall;)))

    The property had a nice ambiance and was conveniently located. It was clean and comfortable, and the staff provided outstanding service. They were accommodating and helpful with all our needs, including entertainment for the kids, extra laundry, and last-minute meal requests. The owners' hospitality was exceptional and made our stay enjoyable.

    The room we booked was not the one we received, and there was confusion from the staff. The Wi-Fi was spotty and stopped working halfway through our stay, which was inconvenient.

    From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm and cozy feeling of home away from home. The staff at Highbury Colombo made us feel genuinely welcomed and the spacious rooms with outdoor showers added to the unique and comfortable experience. We also enjoyed spending time in the beautiful common sitting space, where we found inspiration for our writing. The recommendation for a nearby Italian restaurant and shopping place was spot on! we had a lovely stay and we would definitely return to Highbury Colombo in the future.

    The rooms here were super clean and fancy, and they had a cool vibe with electric blankets. Plus, you can't beat the location - there's an awesome temple just a short walk away! 🏞️

    We had a fantastic stay at Highbury Colombo Bed & Breakfast! The location was perfect - nestled in a quiet neighborhood but still close to the old town, beach, and key attractions like BMICH. The lush garden and beautiful interior design made for a peaceful and inviting atmosphere. The owners and their family were incredibly accommodating and responsive, making us feel right at home. We enjoyed delicious meals at the hotel, which were even better than what we found outside. The overall ambience and homey feeling made our stay truly memorable.

    Not the easiest to find 📍

    The venue was beautifully designed and unusual, I liked the location right by the pond, Highbury, and very nice area of Colombo, and garden views. The location was best possible, close to Raux Brothers. It also was in a very quiet neighbourhood. The breakfast was sensational, it had local meals.

    It was complete with many books and AC plus a tropical garden, the room was a nice size and well-equipped. The owner was always available.

    It's a pity but the bathroom was a bit small.
