  Beautiful room. Super friendly and helpful staff. Would love to stay again. Also appreciated the free yoga class and the convenience of having access to a variety of holistic wellness treatments. Thanks prana lounge it was delightful!

  Lovely place full of character and charm.

  There were definitely some positives and negatives about staying at the Prana Home. More negatives than positives, in my case.

The good things were that the yoga studio staff were friendly, I enjoyed some classes and check-in went smoothly.

The bad things were that there were holes in the mosquito nets over the bed and it was impossible to close them without there being some open space between the curtains, so I got bitten in the night completely unnecessarily. Those need to be updated.

Also, the listing states that there is constant access to the internet, which I need as a digital nomad, and about 5 out of the 14 days I was there, the internet didn’t work. (The staff’s internet was working at that time, so I know it wasn’t just an internet outage across the neighborhood that couldn’t be prevented.) When I addressed this situation with the staff, they said something would be done and it wasn’t, which is unacceptable for a host to ignore.

The keys and lock are very old to the main entrance to the building and it would take me between 2 and 5 minutes to open it every night—those need to be updated as well.

Also, the key chain somehow broke off of the keys during the end of my stay and I thought I had returned them all, but realized a week later that they had come off of the giant purple tassel I had handed in and were still in my purse. I take responsibility for my part in not noticing that upon check-out for sure, but if the key chain was in a good state, as is to be expected, there is no way that could have happened.

Anyways, although some things are great from this listing, I would suggest staying somewhere else instead during your time in Colombo. The Prana Home is a great place to take yoga classes, though!

  Prana Home is a great place to stay while in Colombo. Staff is very welcoming and friendly and there is a great athmosphere. The guesthouse is situated in a very friendly neighborhood and there are many nice cafés and restaurants nearby.

  This is a really lovely listing above an awesome yoga studio in a great neighbourhood in Colombo. The hosts were also really friendly and forthcoming with recommendations. The room itself is beautifully decorated and extremely comfortable. I highly recommend staying here - you'll even get a free yoga class!

  Perfect place to land after many hours of travel! They even have a La Marzocco and Handbrew in the café. I also tried the morningyoga. Loved every detail!
Hope to be back one day.

  We stayed for six weeks at the Prana Lounge, and we were delighted with our room. It's a real oasis of quiet in a noisy city - we moved there from another Airbnb, and our experience of Colombo improved immeasurably as soon as we did. The room was clean and beautifully presented, and the location was absolutely perfect. There are lots of cafes and amenities nearby within walking distance. The staff were always super-friendly, and went above and beyond in doing our laundry for us given that we were staying so long. Any minor issues were always resolved quickly, and on the whole everything worked really well. Thanks so much for having us - if we ever come back to Colombo we wouldn't think about staying anywhere else.

  We stayed at Prana on our first and our last night, and both times we felt absolutely amazing arriving in the very beautifully and stylish decorated place. The facilities were great and sparkling clean, the free Yoga class we got was exactly what we needed and the place has a great location to walk around and discover Colombo a little bit.
We will definitely come back - and will stay longer than just for a night !
Thank you Annie, Anja and the whole Prana Home Team - for making our stays so enjoyable.

  Absolut empfehlenswert. Ein zentraler und schöner Ort zum Ankommen.
Die Zimmer sind wunderschön, großzügig und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Es werden sehr gute Yogastunden angeboten. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und kommen deshalb am Ende unserer Reise wieder dorthin zurück.

  Beautifully decorated, spacious room in an excellent location. I loved the vibe of the place and the staff was all very friendly and helpful. The free yoga class was a nice touch and the instructor, Christa, had a ver calming energy. Absolutely loved the bed, it's like sleeping on a cloud.

  Sehr schöne Unterkunft mit durchdachten Details. Wir haben uns im Prana Home sehr wohl gefühlt und sind am Schluss unserer Reise nochmals dort übernachtet.

  Prana hOMe Hotel is a beautiful restful place. Razik went out of his way to make sure I had everything I needed, and the recommendations for nearby places were great. Hope that next time I have a chance to try the yoga classes 🙂

  Loved our stay will definitely be coming back in the future! Beautifully decorated, beautiful building and feel to the whole place. Great Service, shop, cafe, yoga and treatments. Loved it... felt like heaven!!

  Prana Home is a beautiful space in a great location. Don't hesitate to stay here and take advantage of the beautiful yoga studio and cafe. WiFi worked great. Would definitely stay here again if I return to Colombo!

  Hi Prana Lounge Team

thanks again for hosting me.

Your place is a real gem, your staff all super stars. PRANA HOME has really nice vibes and very beautiful designed rooms. It is so well thought through. And the yoga just downstairs. So looking forward to come back and try more of your wellness and yoga options. I love your place.

My stay could have not been better.

Best wishes
Jutta

  It's the perfect combination: a city stay and a retreat.

Beautiful building full of those little details that make the difference.

If you are looking for a place in Colombo but wanna make sure that you still get the peacefulness of the retreat life, this is your place.

  We enjoyed a lovely couple of days in the Prana home. Enjoyed a yoga class included in our stay. Room is very relaxing and peaceful feel to it.
Would have liked to try eating in the cafe. But it didn’t seem to be open.
Thanks we will be back some day.

  I stayed for 5 nights which would become one of my best memories in Sri Lanka. I couldn’t find any defects, and the style of the room, the home-like atmosphere, the safety, the spirits, and even the sunshine spreading down to the balcony ..... all comforted me with Prana’s merit and energy.
Would come back 100% for sure.
