Top hotels in Bambalapitiya
Radisson Hotel Colombo
Staff were amazing. Friendly and super helpful. The room seemed a bit outdated, and old. Ive stayed at other Radisson hotels and the look and feel is way more modern. But the courteous staff make up for where the hotel fell short.

Galle Face Hotel
We had to wait over an hour for our room to be ready, and then call three times and visit reception to get towels. The dinner buffet was not great. Otherwise, the room was very comfortable, with huge bed. The hotel really is a time travel experience and worthy of a one or two night stay

Marino Beach Colombo
Clean and large rooms, bathroom has speakers so can listen to television; fridge has several complimentary drinks, biscuits and peanuts - nice and unexpected; roof top pool was enjoyable; free city tour definitely worth the time (2:30-5:30pm).
