Property building in Ishq Colombo

If you're looking for a cozy, yet stylish place to stay in Colombo, **Ishq Hotel** is a gem worth considering. Nestled in the heart of the city, the hotel offers a perfect blend of modern luxury and local charm. From the moment you step in, the ambiance is welcoming, with sleek interiors and a design that reflects the best of Sri Lankan culture. The rooms are spacious, clean, and well-appointed, ensuring that you have a comfortable and relaxing stay. The real highlight of Ishq Hotel, however, is the exceptional service. A special shout-out to **Asanga**, who went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. His attention to detail and genuine hospitality truly stood out, making us feel like we were at home. Whether it was arranging transport, offering great local tips, or ensuring our needs were met promptly, Asanga’s dedication to guest satisfaction was evident. The hotel also boasts a fantastic restaurant with a diverse menu, showcasing both local and international flavors. If you're a foodie, you’ll love the variety and quality of the dishes. And for those who want to unwind, the rooftop bar offers stunning views of the city, making it the perfect spot to relax after a long day. All in all, Ishq Hotel combines comfort, style, and top-tier service. It’s definitely a place I would recommend, and big thanks to Asanga for making our experience even more special!

Beautiful tranquil small boutique hotel. The room was huge (and the 2 master suites are loads bigger) and the bed was so comfortable. Loved all the common areas they are so nicely designed and furnished and comfortable, I spent a lovely afternoon curled up in a sofa watching the rain come down outside. We were really well looked after by Ashan who was happy to organise restaurants cars and advise on where to go and what to do. Great breakfast and pretty little pool! Also really close to the paradise road gallery cafe which is absolutely fantastic, highly recommend a visit!

Spa and wellness centre/facilities in Ishq Colombo

Last stay (1 night) of our Sri Lanka trip and one of the highlights. We booked a double room but got a much appreciated upgrade. The Villa is an architecture gem, with curated design, rooms and garden. Top notch service and hospitality, with right level of attentiveness. Restaurant is also high level although a bit pricey, but worth it. Only missing coffee machine/kettle in the room, the rest of the amenities was great.

"I was delighted to stay at the hotel and thank you for the hospitality and the high-class service. The most beautiful thing about it is the 24/7 cleanliness and the wonderful and distinctive scent of the lobby and the always-fragranced rooms. These are memories that I will cherish forever. Greetings to you and my appreciation to all the hotel staff🙏🌹

This is an exceptional property with exceptional staff. With just four rooms the staff are able to provide personal attention of the highest standard. Our ‘personal butler’ Ashan was outstanding, always available, personable and a good source of advice. The food is great too. If you like busy hotels full of people this is not the place. If you want privacy, high quality and great service, well located, this is hard to beat.

A private house with only 4 suites — and 10 staff! — in an elegant mix of modern functionality and traditional architecture, filled with superb antiques, decorated to perfection, equipped to the height of luxury, all around a green oasis just steps away from bustling Galle Road in central Colombo. Our butler could not have been nicer, and the food was both ambitious in range and perfect in execution.

This was the best hotel we have ever been to. Firstly, when we booked the hotel, we certainly didn't expect THAT much! Everything was not just perfect, everything was delightful. The place itself, the staff, the atmosphere, the design, the facilities, the comfort - 100 out of 10. There is simply no point in listing all the pros, everyone has to live the experience. We didn't like Sri Lanka but we are ready to come back just for Ishq!

This place was phenomenal. A gem. It is located in the heart of the city, a 5 minute drive from all restaurants and shopping. The service was beyond expectation and our private Butler Angsana was available 24/7 to make the experience perfect. Every request was customized to our desire. The furniture, look and feel and greenery is luxurious. The food is terrific.

Location was central yet tranquil. Stylish in both architecture and interior design. Our room was clean and comfortable with everything we could wish for. Staff were superb - Asanga the butler was friendly, helpful and kind (as were all the staff). The chef took time to come and chat about the food which was excellent.

The breakfast was really tasty.. porridge was delicious, the eggs Benedict with a twist were also delish, huge fruit and pastry platter, great coffee. More than one could eat. Dining in the private dining room was very nice also. The tasteful architecture, interior design and perfectly manicured gardens make this place a design lovers delight. Great book selection. Ishq is a tranquil oasis in the middle of the bustle of Colombo. The staff just sort of appear when you need something.. very attentive without imposing. We will stay here again, it feels welcoming and homely rather than a hotel. Highly recommend!
