🇱🇰Experience the most affordable infinity pool at Gradbell in Colombo🏊‍♀️

#RegisterAugustHotelTester2025 The Gradbell in Colombo is a relatively new Japanese-owned hotel, perfect for a perfect ending to your trip. 💗 This hotel is in a prime location, with the seaside train right downstairs. 🚄 Staying on the lower floors means you can watch the train arrive at the station. The rooftop infinity pool offers a breathtaking view of the sea and sky at dusk, complemented by Colombo's bustling cityscape. 🏙️ And the Indian Ocean beyond is truly breathtaking. 😍😍😍😍 The price is very reasonable, offering excellent value. The rooms are spacious, and even the more expensive rooms come with a bathtub, perfect for soaking away those tired feet after a day out. 😊 The only downside is that the rooms don't provide bathrobes or slippers, which is a bit inconvenient for those who want to swim. Don't miss the hotel's breakfast! The buffet offers a wide variety of dishes, and paired with the ocean view, it's sure to make your morning a good one! 😊 🏖️Environment/Facilities: Infinity pool 💰Average Cost: 300-400 💞Recommended: Reasonable price and stunning location #Sri Lanka #NewYearDestinations2025 #InfinityPool #UnbeatableSeaView #AffordableHotel #Colombo
