Amari Colombo, a flagship property under ONYX Hospitality Group, has been honoured with the prestigious Hotel Interior – Sri Lanka award at the Asia Pacific Property and Hotel Awards 2025–2026. The award recognises the hotel’s exceptional achievements in interior design, delivered in collaboration with the acclaimed design firm FBEYE International PTE LTD.
This accolade reinforces ONYX Hospitality Group’s vision of becoming Southeast Asia’s leading medium-sized hospitality management company. It also underscores the brand’s ongoing commitment to design excellence and delivering elevated guest experiences rooted in local culture and innovation.
Located strategically in the heart of Colombo’s bustling commercial district, Amari Colombo stands as a design milestone in Sri Lanka’s luxury hospitality landscape. The interiors, conceptualised by the award-winning FBEYE International team, are inspired by Sri Lanka’s identity as the “Gem Island.” This theme is reflected throughout the property, with gemstone-inspired tones embedded in carpets, wall panels, and subtle design details that pay tribute to the island’s rich cultural heritage.
One of the standout features of the hotel is its dramatic sixth-floor semi-circular reception area, seamlessly flowing into the ocean-facing Mira Lounge and the elegantly intimate Chancellor space. These areas blend colonial vintage motifs with modern sophistication, offering guests a truly immersive experience that reflects the fusion of tradition and contemporary style.
Indika Jayawardena, Hotel Manager at Amari Colombo, expressed pride in the recognition, stating, “We are incredibly honoured to receive this award. Our collaboration with FBEYE International has resulted in a breathtaking design that elevates our guest experience, and this accolade is a testament to our shared vision.”
Amari Colombo features 167 spacious rooms and suites, each thoughtfully designed to provide a perfect balance of modern luxury and traditional aesthetics. The hotel caters to both business and leisure travellers, offering comfort, elegance, and a unique sense of place.
The Asia Pacific Property and Hotel Awards celebrate excellence across architecture, interior design, and real estate development in the region. This win highlights Amari Colombo’s standing as a top-tier hospitality destination and showcases the strength of the creative partnership between ONYX Hospitality Group and FBEYE International, both of whom continue to set new benchmarks in design-led hospitality.
