    Excellent resting place before our flight home. Very convenient for the airport and train station. Stylish house with good kitchen facilities. The host brought an evening meal for us from a nearby restaurant. Nice garden too. The changed my reservation after confirmation !! But the owner tried to help by sending us to a nearby hostel for the same price. which was a dump!!! Disappointment! Warm and friendly hosts opening up their comfortable home. Everything was provided for. They arranged rides for us and gave us great suggestions for our trip. Their smiles made feel so welcomed and comfortable. Good breakfast, close to airport without too much noise. Close to local train line into Colombo. There was confusion with the taxi I had arranged, but the man allowed me to eat a late breakfast.

    Convenient location near the airport with a good transfer service. Newly moved hostel with new facilities. Nice, spacious and well-lit room with a comfortable bed. Excellent cleanliness, making guests feel comfortable. Very affordable price, offering great value for money. Friendly and helpful staff, accommodating late-night arrivals. Regretfully, couldn't stay longer to enjoy the breakfast

    Felt like visiting family, with nothing being too much trouble.

    I stayed at Hostel Katunayake for one night as I had a late flight arrival. The proximity to the airport was perfect, just a short and inexpensive Uber ride away. The hostel was clean and the beds were comfortable. The staff were friendly and helped my friend settle in when she arrived later. The self-service breakfast had everything we needed. it was a great stay.

    Would recommend this hotel.

    The rooms at Hostel Katunayake were perfect for me. The cozy seating area and TV made me feel right at home. I also loved having a safety deposit box to keep my valuables secure. And let's not forget the air conditioning, which kept me cool throughout my stay. The bed linen and towels provided were a nice touch. I had a comfortable and enjoyable experience.

    I personally didn't care for the desk in the air-conditioned rooms. But hey, that's just my preference.

    The location of the hostel is not ideal as it is far from the airport, requiring a taxi or tuk tuk ride. the staff are very helpful and even provided a drop off service to the bus stop. the rooms have comfortable king size double beds with air conditioning and a fan. the facilities are clean and well-maintained, providing everything a guest may need. the friendly staff make the stay enjoyable and the value for money is excellent.

    Transportation to and from the airport is not organized by the hostel, which can be inconvenient and may result in overpriced taxi fares.

    I got great value for my money at this hotel. The room was comfortable, with a universal powerboard and a cool atmosphere thanks to the cathedral ceilings. The staff were very accommodating and even allowed me to have a late breakfast after a mix-up with my taxi. The proximity to the airport and the helpfulness of the staff made for a convenient and pleasant stay.

    The place was immaculately clean, leaving us with a great first impression. The hosts, a friendly couple, went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. Despite a delayed arrival, they patiently waited for us and even arranged for our transportation. They provided snacks to keep us fueled until our next destination. The hosts even gave us their personal contact information for any assistance while traveling. The airport transfer was well-organized, and our needs were met promptly. The hosts helped us book a taxi to our desired destination efficiently. The location is conveniently close to the airport, making it a convenient stay for travelers. We were transferred to a slightly different hostel, but the family who owned the property was amazing. The lady in charge even personally drove us to the airport at 2 am. The hospitality provided was exceptional, making our stay truly unforgettable. The property itself was stunning and well-maintained. It took just a short 10-minute drive to reach the airport, perfect for those needing proximity. an outstanding option for anyone looking for a comfortable stay near the airport.

    We arrived late at night and needed a place close to the airport. Luckily, this hostel was only 3km away, and we had no trouble getting there with a quick and affordable Uber ride. The hostel was clean and the beds were comfortable. The staff were great in assisting my friend, who arrived at 1am, ensuring she settled in while I slept. The breakfast provided was simple but satisfying with tea, coffee, toast, eggs, and fruit. We would definitely stay here again if we needed proximity to the airport. I highly recommend this hostel for its great location and helpful staff.

    Such a charming hostel with a delightful garden. Free bikes for exploring, and the staff arranged a seamless airport transfer. Enjoyed the delicious buffet breakfast.

    The experience wouldn't be complete without the delightful noise of airplanes overhead. Such a soothing lullaby.
