“Perfect stopover, highly recommended!”
We stayed one night at Sebastian Transit Katunayake before an early flight, and we were genuinely pleasantly surprised. The free airport pickup is a real game-changer — no stress, no taxi haggling, you're picked up right at the terminal. The welcome at reception was warm and attentive, which sets a great tone straight away. The hotel sits in a lively commercial area with plenty of shops all around, and just 900 metres away there's a train station with direct connections to Colombo and Ramana — from where you can reach virtually anywhere in Sri Lanka. Ideal if you're continuing your journey by rail. All in all, exactly what a transit hotel should be: friendly, well-located, and hassle-free. Perfect for a one-night stopover. We'd stay again without hesitation.

It was really conveniently located for the airport, and having the free transfer to the airport for both myself and my daughter at different times was really good, especially as they were in the early hours of the morning!

“Perfect stopover before or after a long flight”
The hotel was about a 10 minute, free transfer to Colombo airport. Our flight was at 2am so having a few hours to freshen up and relax after our last day in Colombo was very welcome and great value. The owner was friendly, well organised and managed the transport well

The staff was helpful, the apartment was clean. We only stayed for one night, since it was close to the airport and we had a very early flight, so they arranged the transport for us to the airport, on time. We also discovered a nice restaurant close-by called Transit Studio & Deck Restaurant, with good food at a cheap price!
