You get what you pay for
For the price it was nice enough. We only stayed one night because our flight landed late. And for that, it was great. But I wouldn’t stay longer. The bed was soft, but the pillows were not. We had a small IKEA throw as our blanket. The tv had 3 channels none in English. But the breakfast was nice, eggs & toast.

The staff at the Christima Residence were excellent and very attentive. They catered to our every need and were very accommodating to our special requests. One of the hotel staff named Pradeep was very polite, welcoming, and did a great job and making us feel very welcome. I would rate this property as one of the best in Sri Lanka.

Great hotel in convenient location near airport
We stayed here for a couple hours before a flight. The hotel room was very clean and comfortable, and the location is great. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. Will definitely return if I need a nice room near the airport.

Convenient for airport.
Booked this as close to airport and included in our flight price to Colombo. Lovely clean hotel, pick up from airport for 2000 rupees (£10 ish) they also looked after our bag while we travelled to Jaffna for a few days. We then stayed another 2 nights. Staff friendly. You Need to pre order breakfast as we tried on the morning and not available? Pool great after a busy day.

Very nice share apartment .
Lovely stay however we did not realise it was a share accomodation. We had our own room and bathroom , both very nice, and a share kitchen lounge laundry . The share area was only with one other room so it was not a problem just a surprise to us . The units are new and very nice as is the pool area. It is a bit of a walk to the supermarket , about 30 min walk, The beach about a 15 min walk and many cafes and restaurants about 15 to 20 mins . As we only stayed one night it was a bit hard to say if we really liked the area. The hotel was definitely good value and very nice as were the staff.

Great pool, very helpful staff.
Very central location but off the Main Street and nice and quiet. The pool is excellent and wonderful to relax and cool off in after a hot day in town. We were surprised to find a fully equipped kitchen and living room attached. Walk to everywhere, great place to come after or before your long flight. We stayed 2 nights and will definitely recommend Christima residence to anyone.

Nice hotel, nice pool. Big rooms.
Large rooms, if you have kids and are after a two bedroom apartment this place is a good stop for your first night in Sri Lanka. Nice sized pool, walking distance to the beach and some restaurants. No problem with noise other than a rooster next door that thought dawn was a couple of hours earlier than it was. Ear plugs wouldn't have gone astray. Hotel is being expanded, but we didn't gear any construction noise. Lovely clean spot for a stay close to the airport.

Value for money
We only stayed for one night between arriving in Colombo and heading inland, but we really felt we got incredible value for money here. A nice two bedroom with kitchen (which we never had time to use) opening to a lovely pool, just minutes walk from both the beach and loads of restaurants. We'd clearly stay here again, and possibly for longer.

Good but could be better
The hotel could have been better if there was a TV in the room rather than in the common area. The concept of a residence may not be appropriate.

Enjoyable stay and great location
Generally very helpful staff. The hotel would need to be updated (the windows could not lock, tap needs changing and wifi only accessible in the lobby with constant login code needed) and swimming pool to be regularly cleaned. The breakfast was varied and very nice.

Convenient, well equipped and clean hotel
We stayed twice in this hotel, at the beginning and at the end of our trip to Sri Lanka. Great apartments, clean and equipped. Right at the center of town, 25 minutes drive from the airport.

A homey feel
This is a family run hotel and everyone put in a lot of effort to make our stay memorable. The rooms are apartment style which is great if you want to cook on your own and there are many shops and restaurants within a 5 minute walk and the beach is very close too. The pool is great and there are stunning views out of the balconies. I would recommend this spot to anyone.
