Cinnamon Lakeside sits on the edge of Beira Lake in Colombo 2, a five-star hotel with 359 rooms in the heart of the city. Colombo Fort Station and Secretariat Halt are both about 0.5 km away, the town centre is 0.4 km off, and Bandaranaike International Airport is roughly 28 km away as the crow flies.
Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB) is about 32 km north of the hotel by road, and the drive along the airport expressway usually takes 40 minutes to an hour, depending on traffic in the city. A private transfer booked in advance means an English-speaking chauffeur-guide meets you in the arrivals hall and drives you straight to the hotel, and the same service takes you back for your flight home. Book the Colombo (CMB) Airport transfer to Cinnamon Lakeside.
The hotel has several places to eat and drink: The Lounge, for coffee, drinks or Thai food prepared by Thai chefs; 7˚North, a casual restaurant and bar with live entertainment; Long Feng, overlooking the terrace and pool and serving Singaporean cuisine; the Pool Bar, for a drink or snack by the water; a Sushi Bar; and a round-the-clock Dining Room with continental and Asian buffet or à la carte menus.
The Gangarama Temple, founded more than 120 years ago, is a short distance from the hotel by the lake, and Galle Face Green with its long seafront promenade is within easy reach for an evening stroll as the sun goes down.

The property is old but efforts have been made to maintain it at an acceptable level. The hotel staff makes the difference when compared with other international chains. Room size is very good compared to newer properties.
