Train
Bambalapitiya Railway Station is within easy reach and provides access to Colombo's coastal railway line, including services towards Colombo Fort and destinations further south.
Drinking Water
Filtered drinking water is provided at the apartment. We recommend using the provided filtered water or bottled water for drinking rather than drinking directly from the tap.
Power
Sri Lanka uses 230V electricity and Type D, G and M plugs. Extension cords are available in the apartment.
Colombo is best experienced at your own pace. Walk along the coast, try local food, explore the city's historic neighbourhoods or simply find a café and watch the city go by.
