At 77 Galle Road, in the heart of Colombo’s Kollupitiya district, Cinnamon Grand Colombo has been part of the city’s story since 1975, when it opened as the Hotel Lanka Oberoi. John Keells rebranded it as Cinnamon Grand in 2005, and the group calls it “the first Cinnamon hotel – where it all began.” It is not one of the island’s small luxury boutique hotels in Sri Lanka, and it doesn’t pretend to be. It is a big, polished city address, which makes it one of the best-known sri lanka hotels Colombo Cinnamon Grand searches lead to when travellers want a full-service stay in the capital. For many visitors it is among the first luxury hotels in Sri Lanka they consider for a night or two in Colombo.
With 501 rooms and suites, Cinnamon Grand hotel Colombo has room types for every kind of trip: Superior and Deluxe rooms, Grand Club King rooms, Club Rooms and Suites, Grand Suites, and a Grand Presidential Suite. Families are welcome, and a ballroom, meeting rooms, and wedding services also make it a popular venue. Guests searching for hotel Cinnamon Grand will find it connected to a shopping centre, with Galle Face Green a short walk away.
The hotel is famed for its dining. Plates serves all-day meals, Lagoon specialises in seafood, London Grill is the steakhouse, and Nuga Gama celebrates Sri Lankan cooking with a cookery class and, according to one listing, a nightly cultural performance. There are also a poolside bar and a lobby tea lounge. At Cinnamon Grand hotel Sri Lanka, two pools (one on the roof), the Nija Wellness Spa, and a gym give guests room to unwind, which suits travellers who like Sri Lanka luxury resorts with plenty on site.
Location is the other big draw. Hotel Cinnamon Grand Colombo Sri Lanka is in the middle of the city, about 45 minutes from Bandaranaike International Airport by one listing, depending on traffic. Colombo’s museums, temples, and markets are all close. Our Sri Lanka tour packages often start or end with a night here, then head on to Sigiriya, Kandy, or the south coast, which suits luxury travel in Sri Lanka that mixes city and countryside.
Before you decide, read recent guest reviews and look at the photos on the hotel’s own site. Our team can answer any question that comes up, and Cinnamon Grand rooms vary a lot between categories, so we help you pick the right one.
Room rates vary by room, season, and length of stay, so we put together a personalized quote based on your travel dates and party size.
