This premise contains multiple businesses such foods, clothing, liquor, beauty products etc. A well maintained public wash room also available. Outdoor seating areas are available.

The Old Colombo Dutch Hospital is considered to be the oldest building in the Colombo Fort area dating back to the Dutch colonial era in Sri Lanka. It is now a heritage building and a shopping and dining precinct.

Cracking area for bars, restaurants. Couple of wee bar's tucked away in alley's. Great in the evening for music.

Fantastic place for shopping and eating. Must be visited by overseas tourists.

It’s located near the world trade centre. It was basically a hospital which in later turned into a nice hangout spot with cafe and restaurant and few shops. It’s a warm and nice place. Evening would be so great. There are few attractions near to it . I suggest you can go for a walk in beach after your food here. Monsters of crabs is a must try place here. It’s a bit costly place . But you can spend few hours chilling here

Nice location to hangout at evening. You can see unique Dutch architecture design and great vibe here.

Dutch hospital, by its name really was a dutch hospital. The government was kind enough to preserve the structure and open cafes in the same area. World Trade centre lies opposite to it and is at stones throw distance from the sea. There are multiple cafes serving tea, juices , alcohol and food. Live music is also played here. Unfortunately the cafes do not reduce their individual music volume when live music is being played. I myself went over to one cafe and requested them to turn down their volume so we could hear the live music. A good place to spend a evening.

Dutch Hospital is a shopping Mall that is situated right in the center of what has become Colombo's business district. It has several good restaurants that cater to the many tourists who stay in the hotels of the area and to the office workers working of the district.

Lively and beautifully transformed location. Good brands for shopping Great options for eateries Saw a lot of families hanging out casually.

A great atmosphere and location. Excellent, lovely, very efficient and multi tasking staff. A wide selection of beers - craft and cask. Proper cider.. What more do you want? Yes, it can be packed but that is because it's such a great pub and the staff will get you served quicker than any other pub I know.

Amazing place. Nice selection of cafe and restaurants

It's a perfect blend of history and modernity. The beautifully maintained heritage building offers a variety of excellent restaurants and shops. The common area in the middle provides a relaxing space, creating a lively and enjoyable atmosphere. It's an ideal spot for shopping, dining, and casual hangouts, attracting families with its good brands and diverse eateries.

Not much here except for restaurants, bars and a souvenir shop. Go to say you've been there, but don't expect too much unless you're in the mood for food/drink. Perhaps it comes alive at night!

Centrally located and easily accessible. Dutch Architecture, very spacious and airy. Mostly occupied by eateries, cafes and bars. Good quality food and ambience. Reasonably priced. Also houses spa, clothes' and souvenir's shop. May be added to your itinerary.

This is one of the iconic places in the city of Colombo. Originally built by the Dutch Monarch as a hospital complex for the wounded soldiers. The complex is build spaciously and with beautiful architectural work. Resently this building complex was restored and converted into a shopping centre and few restaurant and bars are opened up for the travellers and visitors of the Colombo city. If your are looking have a meal you have few restaurants to cater for your satisfaction. If you are looking for a bar, then it is also available. On weekend the place get really crowded but plenty of space available. Occasionally there is a musical band is playing in the bar area. Most of the dining area is located in the outside area. A clothing and souvenir shops are available for shoppers.

Old Dutch hospital is a very nice old place converted as a shopping complex with many restaurants. It’s great to dine in there. Heladiv tea club, ministry of crabs, tap house, black pepper etc are available there. A lovely place to spend time with friends. Good for weekend hangouts. Many foreigners like to visit this place.

As the name depicts the place is a renovated surviving building which was used by the dutch as a hospital. It has a good variety of restaurants so you'd probably find one match your taste. Most places, if not all allow you to reserve ahead or you can just visit and dine on an available table. The place attracts locals and tourists alike.

Good place to spend time and see the traditional architecture

awsome place to stay n do shopping. Can have good entertainments at friday night.

This shop is have a many vareities of sweet items from made by arabian countries One of my friend and me bought two sprite from that shop

I'm worry about children. They don't know anything they ate some chocotales 😞 Don't buy anything in this place..!! If you need to buy something please check the expire dates 😔

Good place to buy confectionery items

Foreign goods

A must visit for all those visiting Colombo specially weekends .Its full fun time .Food lovers will enjoy as they will have lot’s of options in one area .A full time enjoyment as you can enjoy dance and music with shopping and food .Time flies as you never know how. The administration has converted the area to fun specially for travellers as their is not much to do in the city after 6pm. A few change’s will be welcome . Please add more of vegetarian food items as many vegetarians from India and other parts do visit the island country of Sri Lanka . The food served should be fresh and hot . My experience with the dosa was not so good . Sadly to say that there are beggars roaming around . This gives baad image of the country . These people can be given work like small movable stalls on wheels or something.

Nice place to spend time. Hot shot spot of the city with all pricey restaurant.

A very lovely location especially if you are in the old city of Colombo nice bars and restaurants

Variety of food stroes are here. Great place to hangout with friends. Recommended.

One item, double charge on card! Tourists WATCH OUT! I bought one item at this DUTCH clothing store and got charged twice on my debt card from the same store, they put my card in several machines and said that one machine wasn’t working. When I went back to discuss this double charge with them, they showed me paper receipts of only one charge which was correct, my suspicions are that the paper receipts were just for one machine, but they said the paper receipts were from both machines… hmm To me this seems like a sophisticated scam with paperwork to cover their trail, but The Facts of the Matter are that they charged my card twice. One amount was for a couple of dollars difference. My advice is to use cash, and if you have to, use a credit card so you can dispute the second charge if you get it. I used a debt card (Rookie mistake abroad) and the manager at the store asked me to go to my bank to ask them why my bank charged me twice, claiming it was my banks fault… Common man, these guys are hoping that most tourists won’t check their bank statements before it’s to late, however I did and it was still to late. BUYERS BEWARE, your’ve been warned.

It's a heritage building.A Dutch colonial era in Sri Lanka. This is the oldest building in the Colombo Fort area Srilanka. A too good place for shoping and dining . This building was built by the Dutch,as a hospital .. Very happening place for spend evening. Food, drink and live music 🥰

A Great place to spend the evening with Drinks and dinner. A choice of deferent restaurants awaits you

Amazing place to spend some evenings outside catching up with friends and family or enjoying a nice meal. There is a variety of restaurants to choose from the curry house, military of crab, Colombo fort cafe and some more. There is live music and it’s a soothing environment

Nice place to relax in the middle of colombo City and in front of the WTC. Old colonial buildings are renovated and housing for many restaurants .

Happy hour discount and recommend for group

Nice place to visit if you want to explore around Colombo, had some restaurants, gem stores, tea shops etc. nice for a browse. Only browsed for a short amount of time as not an awful lot to do! Worth a visit overall but not a day thing! Hour or so tops!

✨

Higly recommended for small gathering chilling and hangout with delicious foods and beers ... with live music..

Place to hangout with friends and family in the heart of Colombo. Have variety of dinning options spreaded among different restaurants and pubs.

Expensive

Heritage shopping area with good collection of shops and eating places.

❤️

Calm and Good place to chat at Night

BEST PLACE EVER. Great customer care, Love this place

The items on display are varied and nice but the service is absolutely despicable. My friends and I were browsing for less than five minutes when the man there came up to us and asked us to leave, saying we were 'annoying them' and that 'their store was not entertainment to us'. Very disrespectful service, arrogant owners who do not know how to deal with customers

You will get all imported food items here for reasonable price.

It's good place to be visited for good collection of chocolates.

Very expensive products and the service is absolutely disgusting. The owner is arrogant and doesn't treat customers well. Very rude service, would NOT recommend, would rate minus stars for service

Best quality products from gulf countries

Well it's a classic Dubai chocolate and others stuff selling place

Best place to buy Arabian sweets.

All kind of nuts available

Great place to buy exotic middle East food, snack, perfume, zamzam water, sandalwood powder, sweets, cultural clothes and accessories

Delicious

Best place for imported chocolates

Everything you need from middle east

Love this place! From the moment you step in you'll feel like your in a store in Dubai. Also everyone who works there are really friendly. I always stop by the Arabian Mall when passing by.They got great sweets & all my favorite drinks.

Worst customer service ever .👿👿👿👿

Colonial and south Asian style buildings. If you're here, must not miss the Ministry of Crab, a top-notch restaurant in Sri Lanka. Also the souvenir shop across is also a nice one. Also spa and other restaurants around. All in all, a great location to hangout.

Very good conditions here in Colombo. Foods like sea foods,Crab,Soft drinks and others are there..Great to have celebrations or any kinds of parties. Facilitated place for outdoor exhibitions. Clean place with few hotel services.. Number of traditional foods and services are there. Good place to held exhibitions. Have better environment for kids as well.different able accessibility facilities.

It may have been interesting historical place in the past. There are quite few colonial buildings preserved in Colombo. Sadly, it was converetd to soulless and overpriced shopping centre.

One of the trendiest parts of the Colombo city! Basically this is the old hospital area which they have revamped! This place has some of the trendiest drinking spots in town and there are a variety of places to choose from a normal pub like atmosphere to a more upscale rooftop bar and restaurant! The road adjoining which is called the hospital street is very famous for hosting various art, jazz and street food festivals on a monthly basis and attracts locals as well as tourists to this area! A must try place for a tourist to hangout and experience a different upscale side of the Colombo city

Great place to chill 👍 pre covid days I would add dine and shop

It’s a historical building was used a hospital in World War I as shelter. Now the hero at building complex is a shopping complex. Near is the WTC of Colombo.

Visited minstry of crabs...wow! Lovely prawns crabs n fish.. Book n go ..came from Chennai.( India) to experience this .v good food.service is excellent too.

Such a lovely place. Would definitely go there again to hang out. They have live music there. There’s are a lot options when it comes to food. Unfortunately I had a beef steak and it was way too hard to chew and I had to swallow big pieces 😫 in the end I gave up eating it coz it was not possible to eat that stake. Well you can always try something else at other restaurants. This was the outside hut stall they served. Had a hot chocolate at Italiano pizza place which is inside the building and that was actually nice. It’s a nice place to relax and to chill. So regardless of the bad expletive of the food i would definitely go there again.

Party till late without breaking the bank...

Superb nights and superb place to enjoy with your loved ones 😍🌟

Amazing place with many shopes music & resturents

Soothing place with indoor and outdoor sitting areas. With restaurants and cafes around, I found the place comfortable yet lively. We tried different types of tea - good experience. Visited during Sep 2012.

There are a lot of shops and restaurants here. The world famous “Ministry of Crab” is also located in this centre. Don’t get deceived by the name, it was a very old British period hospital which was turned into a market now.

Been here on 2015, while visiting Sri Lanka with my friends. Nice location on the city, it’s really good to see how they revitalised heritage area and put another function to it. Very good ambience of Sri Lankan Architecture mixed with english fluent architecture. It might be the most visited place by local and tourist to eat and shopping. On saturday night they held live music at that time there. The place is clean. There is a lot of souvenir shop here for tourist, Barefoot and the others. Sure will comeback here soon after the pandemic.

You will find the Famous Ministry of Crab restaurant - Expensive but need to try once their menu and you get bills in dollars.. Don't be surprised.. Lots of restaurant close by, nice place to hangout.. Souvenirs shop available close by has lot of collections

Pretty small mall with pricey food but seems to be popular with foreigners and tourists. Shops here are available everywhere in Colombo

One of the best places in Colombo to hangout with friends during the night. Prices are little bit expensive. But there are some affordable shops also. You can dance to the dj till past midnight. If you come in a Friday you get to enjoy live music in the open area. But it can get crowded sometimes.

Ample dine-in restaurants and shops. Has so much open area seating arrangements for small gatherings. Very nicely decorated for Christmas.

Nice Place to Chill with your Friends. The Evening vibe is very cool. The Old Colombo Dutch Hospital (known as The Dutch Hospital) is considered to be the oldest building in the Colombo Fort area dating back to the Dutch colonial era in Sri Lanka. It is now a heritage building and a shopping and dining precinct. Must experience.

Old Dutch hospital converted into a shopping center. But there is hardly any shopping to done here , it's more of a hangout place with plenty of eateries, restaurants, bars, street food etc. Sit out in the courtyard and grab yourself a beer 🍺 on an afternoon. Cheers !!

It has multiple bussiness in the conplex. Has Ministry of crab, a Luv SL, a heladiv tea club, and we dined at the Harpos! Reasonable prices, cost effective portions, and kid-friendly!

Its a nice idea, to turn a 300 years old hospital to a great venue for food, you can see squirrels running on the roof while you eat

Dutch Hospital is one of the oldest buildings in Colombo (since 1681). It was built as an infirmary for the Dutch who ruled the Country for more than 150 years. Since 2011, it has served as a shopping and dining precinct. The colonial dutch architecture is the zenith of the location and it is the home of some of Sri Lanka's best dining restaurants.

If you're looking for a place to eat, shop, hangout, meet friends and chill, this beautifully maintained heritage building is it! It is lined with great brands of restaurants and shops as well as has a common area in the middle where you can just relax. My personal favourites here are Ceylon Curry Club and Odel. Parking here, like almost everywhere in the city, is paid. Follow @thatgoangirl on Instagram for more things to do in Colombo

Nothing to see. Move around. Except for restaurants but we didn't try them.
