General Info

Address: 2, York Street, , Colombo
The Grand Oriental Hotel is one of Sri Lanka's oldest. Built in 1837 it is located in the Fort area of Colombo and overlooks the harbour, meaning you get a taste of the 'real' Colombo, while still enjoying the luxuries of a top hotel.
Known as the Taprobane for a long time, the hotel was only popular with the passing ships passengers, but became something of a landmark in the upper echelons of the Colombo social scene. The hotels ballroom is famous and the crockery has become something of a collectors item.
