Seconds Hostel - Colombo, hotel in Mount Lavinia

Located in Colombo, 2.7 km from Wellawatte Beach, Seconds Hostel - Colombo provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a shared lounge.

It's very affordable. I only stayed for a few hours before my flight, just to be able to get some rest, shower, and eat. They have good food and are not that expensive either. Staff are really nice. They did not ask me for a deposit anymore since I was not staying overnight. They also have pool and met some good travelers but have no time to know them longer.

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The staff of the hostel was super friendly and helpful, extremely nice people. I was in a dorm but I had the room for myself. It has AC and it is super clean. The rooms are big, comfy and renovated. Breakfast was also included, it's a super good deal for the price!

    If you are a seasoned backpacker, you will appreciate this hostel. If not, you may find it basic. But the staff were incredible, so helpful and lovely. No hot water but you don’t really need it with the temperatures.

    Maria is an excellent host and always ready to help. The hostel is located really near to the beach and has good rooms. The common area specially the roof top is really pretty. You can stay here if you want to meet new people and have some fun parties.

    Great location, quiet and close to the beach. Great staff, unobtrusive but always there when you need them. Early check in and late check out, sorted out problems with the safe quickly, gave us a free upgrade. Quality sheets and towels.
