Granbell Hotel Colombo, a Japanese-owned hotel in the heart of the capital city, recently celebrated its first anniversary. 
During a press conference held last week, the hotel’s management shared insights into their successful journey, highlighting the dedication of their team and the hotel’s commitment to providing unforgettable experiences to every guest. 

The hotel also announced an exciting social media giveaway to their loyal patrons of an exclusive overnight stay, a themed dinner week at The All Day Dining Restaurant, and special entertainment at The Bar On the Top.    
guests and dignitaries, including the President of Belluna Co. Ltd, Kiyoshi Yasuno, and Director, Hiroshi Yasuno, attended Granbell Hotel Colombo’s anniversary celebration, along with Junko Kato, Director of Belluna Japan, Nishantha Perera, Partner Belluna Lanka and Shirantha Pieris, Chairman – SLITHM.    

Despite various challenges, Granbell Hotel Colombo defied the odds and opened its doors in April 2022. The hotel maintained a strong occupancy rate of over 40 percent from November onwards, thanks to the support of the government, Sri Lanka Tourism, travel agents, corporate partners, and overseas tour operators. 
Granbell Hotel Colombo also participated in the SATTE 2023 travel fair in Delhi and the Arab Travel Mart in Dubai, where it showcased its world-class facilities and exceptional service. The hotel is looking forward to attending the World Travel Mart and more travel fairs in the coming year to further promote Sri Lanka’s tourism industry.   

    
With 292 rooms across four categories, half of which offer breathtaking ocean views, Granbell Hotel Colombo is the perfect seaside retreat for a quick getaway. Guests can indulge in sea-view terraces overlooking the Indian Ocean to a bathtub with unbeatable ocean views in the highest-category room. The iconic rooftop infinity pool and bar offer stunning panoramic views of the city and sea, while the Japanese restaurant tantalizes your taste buds with tempura and teppanyaki delicacies. 

In addition to luxurious accommodations and world-class dining options, Granbell Hotel Colombo offers corporate and business facilities, including a banquet hall, board room, and conference room. The hotel’s central location provides easy access to Colombo’s business, entertainment, and shopping districts, making it an ideal destination for business and leisure travelers alike.   
Belluna, also the owner of Le Grand Galle, eagerly awaits the property’s fifth-anniversary celebration this August. Perched gracefully just five minutes away from the historic Galle Fort and the mesmerising sea, Le Grand offers spacious rooms starting from generous square metres.
