We only spent one night in this hotel but we were not very impressed with it. We had been in some fabulous hotels during our stay in Sri Lanka so we had been very spoilt! The staff were very friendly and the gentleman who was at reception could not have been more helpful. However our room was exceptionally small especially... More

We stayed here for the night before getting our flight home, so just needed a base where we could see a little of Colombo, within an hour of the airport. This place was perfect for that – felt like it was in a residential area, a gated villa converted to modern hotel with small swimming pool and bar area. Our... More

My wife and I spent 7 nights at Zylan and overall we were diissapointed. First of all we arrived about 2am and there was no cold drink or cold towel on arrival, in fact the young man on reception we think was sleeping and had to be woken up,we were taken to our room which was boiling hot as the...

Had booked for 3 nights thro Agoda. The hotel describes itself a five star property. Was utterly disappointed by the place. Its great on design, but totally unpractical. The room allotted to us has a partial wall between the bed and the tiny airconditioner . so its not effective. Toilet doors could'nt lock. Amenities are grossly inadequate for even a... More

This hotel is really a Gem. Located in the "posh" area of Cinnamom Garden it is the correct choice if you wish to stay in a quite place but be treated as a prince. Room are lovely, well decorated and clean, breakfast is not buffet, they have a fixed menu where you can choose some dishes, but everything is made... More

We booked Zylan for what we hoped would. be a guaranteed quality stay for our first couple of nights in Sri Lanka and weren't disappointed. Our room was more like an apartment and the food and staff were great. It's also an oasis of calm brilliantly located for exploring Colombo. It's fair to say you could spend a lot less... More

We stayed at Zylan Villa for only one night before departing Sri Lanka. Tastefully decorated by a well-known Chinese artist who fell in love with Sri Lanka a number of years ago. Set in a very peaceful area of Colombo but watch your timings as there is a private school nearby so road can become congested. We were the only... More

Zylan is well hidden in the up-scale Colombo 7 district. Some 10-15 minutes from Odel shopping, Bayleaf (Italian) Restaurant and other cafes. The rebuilt villa has few rooms but nicely decorated. The bathroom was with all amenities and waterfall shower. Wi-fi is free and available throughout the hotel. Breakfast is included. No buffet but you order from the menu. We... More

Stayed here for only 2 nights, and what a great start to an amazing trip in Sri Lanka. We really felt like we had started our holiday, when we walked into our room, after a long flight. Zylan is located in the "embassy" district, so calm streets and not a lot of hustle and bustle. This place was a calm... More
