Cinnamon Grand Colombo, hotel in Colombo, Sri Lanka
Cinnamon Grand Colombo is a large hotel in the center of Colombo, Sri Lanka, with a bright lobby under a glass ceiling and rooms on multiple floors overlooking the city or the sea. The property has several restaurants, two outdoor swimming pools set in a garden area, a spa, a fitness center, and event spaces.
The hotel has been welcoming travelers in the heart of Colombo for several decades, making it one of the city's long-standing places to stay. Over the years it has been updated and expanded while keeping the layout and feel of its original design.
The hotel's name refers to cinnamon, a spice that has been central to Sri Lanka's trade for centuries. The outdoor restaurant Nuga Gama is designed to look like a traditional village, with large trees and regional dishes cooked from local recipes.
The hotel is in central Colombo, so many shopping areas, parks, and historic sites are within walking distance. For trips further out, taxis are easy to arrange at the hotel entrance.
The hotel takes part in the Cinnamon Rainforest Restoration Project, which plants trees and protects local forests across Sri Lanka. Water and energy conservation measures are also built into the hotel's daily operations.
