Taj Samudra

If you're looking for a Sri Lanka holiday that is relaxing, but isn't completely off the beaten track, then the Taj Samudra Hotel is ideal. Located in central Colombo and surrounded by 11 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens, The Taj Samudra offers an oasis of tranquillity whilst only being a short stroll from Colombo city centre. Excellent facilities and unrivalled views of the Indian Ocean and the Galle Face Green make a stay at the Taj Samudra Hotel one you will remember for ever.

Enjoy the best of both worlds in the Sri Lanka capital of Colombo

The Taj Samudra Hotel is one of those unusual places to stay that provides traditional Sri Lankan peace and tranquillity, but is located right in the heart of the bustling capital city. Here you'll find luxurious surroundings and excellent facilities. But it won't feel anything like a city break because you'll be surrounded by lush greenery and have gorgeous views out to the Indian Ocean.

Keeping guests comfortable is clearly top of the agenda for the staff at the Taj Samudra Hotel. All superior rooms are en suite with lovely views of the garden. You'll also have a television, telephone and air conditioning for your comfort. If you did want to spend a little extra, seaview or deluxe rooms are also available - just ask when you book.

Facilities on site at the Taj Samudra Hotel are second to none. First the restaurants - here you'll be presented with an excellent choice of five different restaurants, each offering their own individual and mouth-watering menus. The hotel also has two bars to choose from, if you prefer to stay on site for your evening drink. There's also a nightclub if you're in the mood to party.

During the day, you might not want to spend all your time by the pool (although it is lovely). The Taj Samudra Hotel provides its guests with lots of activity options to choose from. There's a fully equipped gym, tennis and squash courts and jogging track if fitness is your thing. Alternatively, there's a shopping arcade, jeweller and florist on site as well as a well-equipped beauty parlour and hair salon. (No excuse for not looking your best on this holiday!)

Last but not least, don't forget that this delightful Sri Lanka hotel also boasts the sights and sounds of Colombo right outside - perfect for a day out exploring.
