The Kingsbury sits on the seafront at the edge of Colombo Fort, a short walk from Galle Face Green, the Old Dutch Hospital and Pettah. It is a convenient base for the historic city and for business, with several restaurants and the rooftop Sky Lounge. Who it suits: travellers who want to be in the historic Fort, by the sea. Things to know: the area is busy by day and quieter at night.
