Sheraton is the thinnest entry here: the hotel's Marriott page lists an outdoor pool next to a rooftop bar. It publishes no floor, size, hours, price or access rules, so ask before you plan a swim.
The pool
The outdoor pool is at 265 Galle Rd, Colombo 03, next to a rooftop bar at the pool. The hotel's Marriott page gives that description. It doesn't state the floor, a size or who can swim.
Our take
Sheraton sits on Galle Road near Amari Colombo, and both are five-star hotels. Amari gives a floor, a length and an infinity design; Sheraton gives none of them.
That is the catch. We can say there is an outdoor pool and a rooftop bar at the pool, and no more. Treat it as a hotel stay with a pool, not a planned day swim.
