Featuring a terrace and views of garden, Highbury Colombo is a recently renovated homestay set in Colombo, 1.1 km from Milagiriya Beach. With a garden, the 4-star homestay has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available. Manoji and Manitha are a lovely couple and made me feel so welcomed and cared for in my first 24 hrs in Sri Lanka. They picked me up from the airport and were the perfect welcome to Colombo. the Highbury Colombo is a beautiful architecturally designed house and garden, and feels very secluded despite being in the big city. I had a very peaceful one night stay and a delicious homemade Sri Lankan breakfast in the morning before I left to the south coast. I would highly recommend the Highbury as a beautiful spot to stay in Colombo - I would absolutely go back :) thank you!
