Priya was a great host and her manager Thiwanka made sure my stay was as comfortable as possible. The room exceeded my expectations in all aspects. Every convenience is close by and less than 45 minutes to the airport and close to the southern expressway bus terminal in Kadawatha.

This recently renovated apartment is located 4.5 km from R Premadasa Stadium and 6 km from Khan Clock Tower.

Very nice apartment in Colombo! The place was very clean: the kitchen and the living room, the bedroom and the bathroom also. The bed was super comfortable, the bedsheets were very clean. The Wi-Fi was very fast, which was really nice for 2 digital nomads. The fact that we have our own kitchen fully equipped with everything you may need, even with oil, salt, and pepper, it was amazing. Also, we could use a washing machine and there was a terrace available to enjoy the mornings or the evenings. Even if the accommodation is not in the city center, you may appreciate that it is more peaceful than central location. Also, there are public buses in front of the accommodation or you may choose to travel by tuk-tuk. There is also a railway station 5 minutes from the accommodation, so you may use the train to reach central Colombo. In one word, amazing stay!

    Well equipped apartment with all the necessities: a cozy bedroom, kitchenette, additional items such as salt & pepper, detergent soap, washing powder & liquids made the stay quite easier and quite comfortable. I really enjoyed all the facilities and extended my stay by another week due to the convenience of the location. This is my second stay at the Paramount Residence.

Very safe environment for solo travellers especially ladies with calm and quiet surrounding. Conveniently located with easy access to supermarkets, hospitals and food outlets etc. Highly recommended and definitely will make another visit in the future. 🙂
