The Villa in Lavinia is a nice-enough, quaint property and on the whole, well run by the owner and staff, who were nice people, grateful for your patronage and always helpful.
Its location is not in the nicest environment at the bottom of the street off Galle Road, just a hundred yards from the train track. Trains pass often with screaming horns at all hours, which has to happen given so many people live, (in dire poverty), at the railway line or cross the track in the normal course of the day/night.
The room itself was basic, a little tired and could do with renovation and re-painting (at least). There was air-conditioning in the room, but wasn't always effective in a tropical climate. Sometimes the ceiling fan did the job more effectively.
The bed was pretty 'hard', uncomfortable and old. The mattress under the sheets looked pretty dirty.
The Wi-Fi was okay.....worked 50% of the time, though was set through an unsecured connection. It often dropped sporadically just when you needed it.
The room had a fridge, which was great since you need to buy mineral water and keep it cold. The bathroom was good, but very tired and needs renovating - the shower-head was literally rusty.
However, all this is in context since Sri Lanka is, at best, a 2nd world country/developing nation.

Inside shower room, toilet bowl and wash basing arrangement are not safe, as sitting in the toilet is not safe due to wash basing square slab with sharp corners. This is a health and safety issue, accident waiting to happen, requires urgent revisit the washrooms and attend to appropriate resifting of wash basing so on to make safe. I alert this issue with the manger InCharge, and he acknowledged the issue. A simple modification of bathroom would solve the problem.

Have stayed at this establishment over the past 20 or so years. First choice when visiting SL. standard has improved with the addition of fridges. Friendly, obliging professional staff standards have not changed.

We spent 1 night here at the Villa in Lavinia. The staff greeted us at the door and walked us to the room as they explained things. We had a nice breakfast prepared for us the next morning accompanied by a gentle knock on the door to let us know it was hot and ready. When we had an issue getting an Uber to come pick us up to go to our next location the staff immediately stepped in and contacted a driver for us. The Villa at Lavinia is a small establishment, but the personal care and service is unmatched. Thank you for that.

The Villa in Lavinia is a great little place tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Colombo proper which is a few minutes away though there is plentiful supply of taxis (Uber) and tuk-tuks so it was not an issue for us. Although the location is closer to the beach there aren't many things to do locally so the taxis do come handy. Facility wise, the room and the hotel in general was in good clean condition and the pool (although small-ish in size) and surrounding area was well kept.
The only real issue we had during our stay is the daily power cuts for which the hotel didn't have generators for at the time.

Staff were pleasant and obliging - although initial requests made at booking were not met. The manager's personal attention to promptly solve a technical issue was very much appreciated. Location is good. You get value for money and I liked the homey feel of the villa.
The building itself is very nice but needs upgrading e.g. plug points should be changed to square from round; fan in my room was noisy; bedside lamps would be nice; amenities were just two tiny lumps of soap. Bring your own.

Location is also not that good.
Wifi was pathetic. You cannot connect in your room and when it is connected it was very slow.
After that in evening there is a power cut and hotel doesn’t have anpower back up. When i asked then came to know that power cut is also in morning from 0830-1130 and evening 1700-1800 or 1830.
I checked out in morning as soon as i got up.
Worst experience of hotel.

Second visit on this hotel. Nothing has really changed, rooms are really good, staff friendly. Fridge and electric kettle is a big plus. One of the best wifis we met during our 26 days visit in Sri Lanka.

Very good value. Small touches would take it up a notch e.g. a bedside lamp, upgrade TV set to a slightly larger one. Nice grounds and plants/trees. Although the rooms were smallish, it was nice that there was an open-ness in the common areas. Well designed.
Every single member of the staff was extremely helpful and communicated well in English (apologies if it sounds patronising; but English is not so widely spoken nowadays). Would definitely stay there again.

All round not so good. Upon arrival we couldn't get in and had to bang on the door for a long time to attract someones attention. The room had been cleaned but wasn't ready so lots of coming and going. Nobody came near our room for our 3 day stay and we had to ask for things like toilet paper. For dinner the menu meant nothing and you pretty much had to order what suited them. Our room wasn't very clean. The staff were nice, helpful and friendly.

My first impression of this place changed significantly over time, largely due to the lovely staff and manager.
On first glance the room seemed smallish and the location a little out of the way for a woman travelling alone but I soon realised how safe n comfortable it was.
The rooms are compact and super clean and modern. My room was bug-free, which is a difficult task for any hotel in SL. There's a nice little porch outside the room which offers great drying opportunities if you decide to do some handwashing. In the heat your clothes can dry in as little as an hour!
The amenity kits in the bathroom are lovely n after use the bottles are fab for putting your own toiletries into if you're trying to downsize on cosmetic bottles in your luggage.
For anyone put off by dogs, the villa's namesake, Lavinia, is a very sweet, small n good natured pup.
The villas are at the beach end of a little laneway, which means it's convenient for beach walks. Tuk tuks are stationed not far from the building so do ask the staff to grab you one if you're going out at night.
The staff n manager are delightful and did whatever they could to make my stay a pleasant one. I felt very at home n looked after here.
Thanks for a great stay!

Room was clean and it was okay for what I paid. Breakfast was okay, but doesn't start to 8am There are two dogs roaming around the property. The free WiFi doesn't work. The TV in the room is tiny, 14 inch. There is a window from the hallway into the room above the door and the curtains on the external window only cover half the window area. If you ask for something the staff will try to help, but not great service. I guess you get what you pay for.
