Brief stay - really just to be close to Fort railway station for an early-morning train - but impressive capsule hostel at this price point, with clean and proper bedding. Beds are robustly built, so that others moving in their capsules don't creak too much, and there is plenty of space within the pod. Would happily stay again.

Ideal pars viajeros en solitario. Llegue a las 8am al hotel y me cobraron 10€ por early check in, cuando por noche pagaba 13€. Un precio absolutamente alto. Además a las 11 me despertaron para hacer la habitación. Muy mal servicio en este caso. Deberían cobrar un precio razonable. ##### Noelia Stayed 1 night in Sep 2018 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hyanghee Sep 27, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 도미토리지만 개인실같은 프라이빗함 진짜 깨끗하고 쾌적했어요. 도미토리지만 침대가 크고 블라인드로 가릴 수 있어서 개인실 사용하는 느낌이 들 정도였습니다. 공항에서 콜롬보로 도착하는 정류장에선 툭툭으로 150루피 정도 됩니다 ##### Hyanghee Stayed 1 night in Sep 2018 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### sang gon Sep 24, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Just Fantastic It was just fantastic!!

I usually don't stay hostel type of the places due to the shared bathroom, privacy and security concerns. But Star Anise was one of my best hotel experiences traveling in Sri Lanka. Very friendly and super kind staff, comfortable bed, kept clean in the bathroom and common areas which made my stay more comfortable. Thanks a lot Sajitha, Nanda kumar and Roshan! ##### Megumi Stayed 1 night in Jul 2018 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### CRAIG Aug 4, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### I started and ended my trip here. great place to start and end your trip in Sri Lanka.. it is 5 min walk to Fort station where I got a train to Hikka. I took a tuktuk from airpirt to this hostel for 1600 rupees. there is an ATM at bottom of the road. There is a roller blind to give you complere privacy in your capsule. Clean towel was provided WIFI is good. Hot water Roof terrace for smokers. Only slightly negative thing is that the USB outlet in the capsule barely charged my phone. I had to use regular charger. Breakfast sandwiches were not to my taste. ##### CRAIG Stayed 1 night in Jul 2018 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jul 5, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service #### 日本でいうカプセルホテル 海外あるあるだけど、ホットシャワーは壊れてて使えなかった。従業員は淡々としててフレンドリーではない。部屋は清潔で快適だったのでよかった。 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jun 2018 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Johnny Jun 12, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Perfect for one night.
