Colombo hotellia

Plussat: Loved the decor,hospitality!!! The staff were fantastic !!!! Am recommending this hotel to everybody!!!!

Miinukset: Nothing !!

Plussat: Food was wonderful and a pleasant surprise having stayed in many 5 star hotels in Sri Lanka staff were friendly and helpful. Small relaxed boutique hotel.

Miinukset: Tv channels were limited if not local channels. Ac old and noisy at high fan speeds. Hot water in evening and night o k but cool in morning

Plussat: We have enjoyed being guests at Uga many times - always superb, polished, friendly service, the food is divine, and the ambiance a relaxing retreat from the Colombo streets.

Plussat: very good

Miinukset: nothing to say

Plussat: Really likes the spacious room

Plussat: The location

Plussat: Recommended A+++++

Miinukset: There is nothing I didn't like.

Plussat: Best breakfast of our trip; great food and drinks in general. The poolside feels very intimate and relaxing (only four sunbeds). The hotel has only around ten rooms, which makes it a great escape in busy Colombo. Very friendly and helpful personell; it was no problem to have a late check out at 4:00 pm.

Miinukset: There is nothing to really criticize. During the meals the personell is a bit too attentive and fast in taking your not-really-empty plates and glasses; however, this is kind of typical in Sri Lanka (in my experience) and not a big minus.

Plussat: Food was exquisite. All staff was great. Wonderful stay

Plussat: Location was ok excellent

Plussat: Nice to stay

Miinukset: Good and excellent

Plussat: Location was great and central. The hotel has many restaurants and caters for all tastes. Rooms were good and clean.

Miinukset: Breakfast selection wasn’t up to the standard of other 5 star hotels in Colombo. The rooms also were okay, bit dated and also not up to the latest standard I’ve experienced of other hotels in Colombo.

Plussat: Great hotel. Excellent in house pub with smoking area and good prices, good food, snacks and nachos. Very clean room, good service, excellent breakfast

Plussat: almost everything..its simply grand..

Miinukset: nothing.

Plussat: Excellent property and Excellent Staff Good restaurants Truly value for money

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Friendliness and helpfulness of staff

Miinukset: No outlet in bathroom or area where there was mirror where hair styling implement could be plugged in.

Plussat: Excellent location very good Costmor service..

Miinukset: Price is little better too much for this hotel..

Plussat: The location is ideal.

Miinukset: The Rooms can be more of 5 star standard.

Plussat: Henkilöstö erinomainen. Koko hotelliympäristö hyvä. Ravintolapalvelut hyvät.

Plussat: Everything about the hotel was great. Especially the pool and relaxing in the lobby in the evening listening to music.

Plussat: We enjoyed our stay.

Miinukset: Food was very experience.

Plussat: Good breakfast with plenty of choice. Something for all tastes.

Plussat: Lake at the back

Miinukset: Nothing really

Plussat: Everything is perfectly arranged

Plussat: The staff at the reception were really nice all the time and the room was cleaned well every day. Everything was quite satisfied and more than expectation. The spa in the hotel was also great. I would recommend other friends as well if they were to visit Colombo.

Miinukset: Not much to say.

Plussat: The attentive staff from start to finish

Plussat: It is a 6☆ hotel Everything was good at this hotel Breakfast Pool Feiendly Staff Nice big room Location A good place to relax

Plussat: Had a comfortable stay.

Miinukset: Ac didn’t work well.

Plussat: The staffs are really nice, friendly and helpful at all the time. Thanks to reception staffs for happy welcoming and for upgrading our room to 7th VIP floor. Room is cleaning every day. Serving excellent breakfast. This property is having very large swimming pool. Everything was beyond our expectation. Quiet nice hotel we enjoyed our stay.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: All..excellent service in all areas except pool bar and staff

Miinukset: Pool staff were not aware of the clientele. Had to got the bar 3 times to get their attention. Lack of communication skills and presentation skills. Definite language barrier

Plussat: The breakfast was a great experience, and it was more than enough for me and my partner. Also, I am very happy about the taste and quality.

Miinukset: Mmm... everything was up to the required quality.

Plussat: The Boutique Hotel looks very nice on the outside and inside where the lobby, restaurant & pool are located. The staff was really friendly & helpul all the time. The location was good. But we can’t sleep in their rooms if you wan’t not to get sick.

Miinukset: DON’T BOOK IT’S A SCAM! We booked two rooms for one night: room no.1 & room no.2. We were 3 adults & 2 kids. The rooms were full of damp & mould and you could not breath!!

Plussat: Excellent staff, beautifully furnished, excellent food and wine, great location. I extended our stay and came back again.

Miinukset: Packed Breakfast box. We did not like white bread sandwiches.

Plussat: This is a well renovated boutique hotel with large rooms. Staff are excellent and there are good lounge and sitting facilities around the lobby. The bed is excellent and the area is quiet. There drinks are good and the food is excellent - both dinner and breakfast were great.

Miinukset: Nothing to mention.

Plussat: Staff were super friendly and efficient.

Miinukset: This Hotel is super tired. On arrival, were were greeted by very friendly staff and showed to our room. The room reeked of Damp which was extremely off putting and made us feel somewhat nauseous. We complained and were met with an apology - whoopee. The building in general is in a mediocre state of repair. Windows were filthy, paintwork on exterior was overdue a paint and generally very tired throughout.

Plussat: Beautiful stylish tranquil property with excellent service. Staff couldn’t have been more polite and professional. Delicious food and beautiful range of spaces to chill out or dine. Lovely elegant pool. A welcome respite from the hectic heat of the city. Definitely coming back.

Miinukset: Nothing it was wonderful

Plussat: An amazing boutique hotel in a great part of Colombo, so much better than the major hotels. Great breakfast and accommodating staff. Love the history of the building.

Miinukset: There is little to not like about this place, however what would make it superb would be a better pool area to relax and get away from the Colombo heat after a day sight seeing.

Plussat: It was an absolute delight to spend time within the walls of this wonderful space.. The service is wonderful, Staff, friendly and very obliging. going above and beyond to make your stay as seamless and comfortable as possible. The food is excellent, No matter what you order. Try the restaurant', you won't be disappointed. The bar is fabulous and cosy The Library is too. The pool is beautiful and so clean, and great to swim in. The gym and massage facilities are supposed to be good, although I haven't used them on this visit or my last. Oh, the rooms - on my first visit last year I stayed in one of the Royal suites which was 'out of this world'. This time I had an Executive room and it was absolutely fabulous! I must sound like I'm gushing...Well, I am! Spoil yourself. Check it out for yourself! Thank you to everyone for making me feel so happy to be there... DE.

Miinukset: What is there NOT to like?

Plussat: The very friendly and helpful staff, the extraordinary breakfast and the boutique style make this hotel really special! Reality is like shown in the pictures! I would definitely recommend to stay here when visiting Colombo. The welcome drink - homemade ginger beer was tasty enough to order it again right away ;-)

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Beautiful Hotel, very charming and fantastic food and service by the staff.

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: Everything was perfect

Plussat: All staffs are well trained, kind, and all the way professionals. View from the windows are excellent if your room is located in sea side. Dinner and breakfast are both offered in buffet style and their various menus kept me from being bored.

Miinukset: However the hotel has no responsibility, you must be careful there are so much "mock" guides hanging out around the hotel.

Plussat: Everyone from reception to room service were always ready to serve with smile. Asanga from room service , I guess , was very helpful. Nice property- Nice people is great combo for nicest vacation !!

Miinukset: All’s well ..

Plussat: Great food - excellent service. Staff very attentive.

Miinukset: Can't think of anything that needs improving. Well done.

Plussat: Staff were very attentive

Miinukset: No problems

Plussat: Excellent hotel with amazing view and great staff

Plussat: Over seeing the ocean, very well located.

Plussat: The view!

Plussat: I want to do a special shout out to Chrish and Haneef, the 2 concierges I interacted with during my stay. They were extremely helpful with tours, coordinating some of our activities around the city and to Kandy; they went out of their way to make our stay comfortable. Thank you so much guys! I much appreciated all your support, and friendliness. Keep up the great work!

Plussat: Excellent location and facilities,

Miinukset: Changed number of guests from 3 to 2 a week prior to arrival but was still charged for 3 in a room that would have struggled to fit three people. Not happy paying a large some extra than another couple that booked at the same time, same hotel.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Some of the floors are not renovated

Plussat: Grounds, public spaces & meeting rooms are lovely-5*. Large breakfast buffet with juice bar. Six bottles of water in my room in arrival (thoughtful) but they weren't replenished. Many wedding parties use lobby & grounds for photos-beautiful to see.

Miinukset: My room was in the older (not refurbished) wing and it showed. Water would not turn off completely in shower, closet doors were hard to slide & did not close completely. Safe was locked open & no one showed up to fix it after I called (but it was done by 3rd day). The room next to mine was under construction or being used by staff & there was a lot of banging one night after midnight. Also, several conference attendees had stomach issues from food they ate there.

Plussat: Where Do I begin ...I am truly at loss for words to describe the most beautiful experience we had at the Taj Samudra @ Colombo. It was our first time in Colombo, while we have heard such great things about the place, the reason we chose was only because of the proximity of the destination to Chennai and my husband & I were looking to celebrate our sons birthday in some nice place away from home . Also we chose Taj again because of the credibility the brand has wrt being guaranteed of some great properties & hospitality. But truly we never expected the kind of experience we got.... The Taj Samudra property is in a great location with beautiful decor but what truly did make the place absolutely special were the staff. True to its word, the hospitality and courteousness of the staff was more than what we ever expected. It was our son's birthdays and we happen to mention to the staff when we were checking in. We were amazed at the length they went to have special surprises organized on both their birthdays. Some of the staff who I really want to take a moment to thank - Niranjali the Guest Relations Executive is a true jewel giving guest relations a new high standard ... Naveesha & Dinusha were so kind and took care of us while we were there along with Niranjali. Special thanks to them for making our stay unforgettable. Haneef Gafoor the Concierge was another stellar staff, always with a smile on his face and so helpful. He ensured he gave suggestions keeping in mind whats best for us & not what he has in hand to offer... Some of the other staff members who really stood out and went out of the way to make it special are - Kasun ( Golden Dragon Restaurant), Sunil / Samuel ( apologies If I got the name wrong) the Supervisor & Damith & Gayan the house keeping staff.

Plussat: The property location is fantastic right at the sea the view is beautiful

Miinukset: The property is very old and not maintained very well. The rooms and bathrooms have issues. We had sink issues they fixed very fast for us but it’s a very old building. The rooms were wooden floor and no carpet which just made them feel older and there was always this old smell in the rooms. We were there for 15 days. The service was quite nice and staff was great.

Plussat: Location was good. Staff was great.

Miinukset: Breakfast was the same for the entire 3 weeks we were there. No variety. They only had two restaurants with one menu. The hotel was dilapidated. We had to spend time with maintenance in the room every other day. Air conditioner was very weak and then stopped completely, Shower pressure very low, just dripping. Unable to have a proper shower. The cistern took 20 minutes to fill up, the toilet was not fixed to the floor so it threatened to topple over all the time, and the seat was broken and not attached to the toilet, thus slipping sideways and falling off. The phone was broken, ringing when no one was there, frequently in the middle of the night. Impossible to have a 10 second communication with out getting cut off constantly. The shower got blocked. My husband got sick with Rota Virus on the second day. I spoke to other tourists in the hotel and several of them told me they had the same symptoms. The Hotel Doctor had to inject my husband with medication to reduce the violence of the vomiting and also one to reduce spasming . However the pathology test came back with no testing for any pathogens that might have been considered to be likely causes for these symptoms, very suspicious my husband had been throwing up and had diarrhea for 8 days. That was a holiday in Hell.

Plussat: Loved the view and the history behind the hotel. It has the look and feel of something built long ago. If you want tradition and history this is for you.

Miinukset: Wish there was more variety in room service.

Plussat: The best hotel in Colombo. Kind courteous staff everywhere, fantastic food, sparkling saltwater pool, inventive cocktails, marvellous sunsets. We didn’t want to leave!

Miinukset: Swimming pool toilets not working properly.

Plussat: Patina

Miinukset: Very little

Plussat: Lovely old world hotel. Great location and lovely views. Check In was great. Loved having a drink on the terrace overlooking the Indian Ocean.

Miinukset: Our junior sweet was rather not well laid out. We noticed that the one next door seems to have has a recent facelift so perhaps it’s a work in progress. Check took much longer than expected but staff were all charming.

Plussat: The location Friendly staff

Miinukset: Cleanliness especially in common areas such as corridor was poor Rooms and property in general needs updating

Plussat: If you like "old world charm" this is the place. A genuine unique old building with character and trained attentive staff!

Miinukset: Price! But that applies everywhere!!!!!!

Plussat: Not much.

Miinukset: The hotel is living on its historic reputation, but failing miserably to offer guests a good experience in the here and now. For many years they have attracted wealthy Sri Lankans who want to display their wealth by getting married in the old British colonial up market hotel. If your stay coincides with one of these weddings, as ours has on a couple of occasions, then your stay may be severely compromised. On our recent stay hotel guests played second class visitors as the whole of the grassed area was covered in a temporary structure and was out of bounds, including the usual dining area - the main reason we had booked to go to the Galle Face in the first place. We wished we had gone somewhere else. It was in our view dishonest of the hotel not to notify impending guests of this giant wedding, and that a large area of the hotel would be out of bounds for several days. The place is not very busy in the present downturn, and we found the staff dispirited and not displaying the usual Sri Lankan friendliness. Maintenance of the hotel doesn't seem to be up to date. For example there is a little balcony on the sea wall by the swimming pool which is out of bounds as the sea has eaten away at the wall. There looks to have been only a half hearted attempt at repair. It is not often that you can be asked at your dining table what you would like to drink, answer the waiter, who then forgets to complete the order. We have stayed at the Galle Face a few times. We won't be staying there again.

Plussat: The view from our balcony

Miinukset: The exterior of parts of the buildings need to be painted and the rust sorted out. We also couldn't access some of the facilities.

Plussat: I like the location, the set up, the style, the bar, the very nice spa, the breakfast buffet, the room sea view, the very friendly staff..

Miinukset: I did not like the very rude, very unfriendly, full of attitude Front desk Manager that check us out on the 30th of September 2019 at 22-40pm, we ask him to book us a normal taxi and he said that it was not safe and they could not take any responsibilities if anything was happening to us and suggested us to use their own chauffeur for a fee of $71 dollars for the 1 hour drive to the airport, We said that we wanted him to book us a normal taxi which he suggested he will but would only make the call but would have to speak to the taxi driver ourselves, I have been to Sri Lanka twice, travelled all around the country , we have stayed in many high standards 5 stars hotels including some guest houses, nobody never made an issue with booking us a taxi,when we check-out he did not speak to us at all and did not even ask us how are stay was, we did not expected to be treated in a such manner in a such High standard establishment. we felt very unconfortable with him.

Plussat: Most beautiful hotel Ihave ever stayed in, with friendly, genuine service without pretentious.

Plussat: The bed was comfortable, the buffet breakfast spread was excellent

Miinukset: Nothing as such

Miinukset: The rooms needs a touch up but i heard they are planning to renovate.

Plussat: Breakfast was good, overall ambience of lobby, restaurant and bar was good.

Miinukset: Shaving kit and tooth kit was not available in room which cause inconvenience to me. Also shaving racer provided to us was very cheap quality which broke during shaving. I guess Hilton as an reputed brand should not use cheap quality product which cause inconvenience to their Guest.

Plussat: Overall hotel experience was excellent

Plussat: Good breakfast. Friendly staff. Great lobby and restaurants Room clean but needs to be refurbished.

Miinukset: Parking not available in most occasions. Rooms definitely need to be refurbished. Hallway outside the room has a unpleasant smell. Bathroom exhaust fan does not work right. Mirror gets fogged after shower. No power outlet in bathroom. Bad lighting in room.

Plussat: Spa-girls

Miinukset: Distance to the pool area

Plussat: The breakfast was really tasty.the staff were very welcoming and kind

Miinukset: The bed wasn’t very comfy

Plussat: everything. this hotel is something I would call home. perfect bedroom, huge variety selection of breakfast. nice ambience of the lounge. the staff were really friendly.

Miinukset: Carpets in the rooms need to be refurbished.

Plussat: Great food

Miinukset: Expensive

Plussat: perfect location

Miinukset: security checks were not properly arranged

Plussat: Very respectful staff excellent service great food and great service wonderful place

Miinukset: Everything went great

Plussat: Very nice personal all over. Big apartment. Very good breakfast and dinner. The pool was also in good shape.

Plussat: Very friendly staff. Very spacious apartment. Kitchen and washing machines make it a very good place for families. Nice pool and play area for kids.

Plussat: Hospitality , staff , Lovely breakfast

Miinukset: May be a bath

Plussat: Perfect breakfast!! Good rooms

Plussat: The location!

Miinukset: The kitchen, especially the drawers were very dirty.

Plussat: The bed was very comfortable with fluffy pillows. As we were cooking our meals during the stay, the property provided us with all utensils we required. Hospitable staff, very courteous.

Plussat: Staff was very friendly and helpful Breakfast was perfect and full of varities Appartments are wide , clean & fully equipped

Miinukset: I wish lunch & dinner were a daily buffet

Plussat: Location, facilities and views

Miinukset: The prices were high even to western countries. The shower water pressure was low and water temperature get hot and cold. Drinks prices advertised at the bar prices would not include taxes.

Plussat: nothing special

Miinukset: hotel staff not helpful

Plussat: Best hospitality

Plussat: Hinta laatusuhde vertaansa vailla! Henkilökunta sydämellistä ja ihanaa ❤️

Miinukset: Sri Lankan viemäriverkoston hajulle tuskin missään paikassa mahtaa mitään, siihen tottui äkkiä!

Plussat: Huoneet olivat siistit ja siivous toimi loistavasti aina pyydettäessä. Hotellin sijainti oli lähellä kaikkea tarpeellista.

Plussat: Vary good breakfast, the room was very clean and also the toilet. The shower was very Cozy. The staff in the dining room was also very nice and helpful.

Miinukset: The guards below were not nice and even annoying. I understand the situation in which you take extra caution because I come from a country that has suffered terror attacks for years. But there may be a better way to pass the entrance exams. The guard should not make me feel like I'm a bad person. He should make me feel like he is guarding me! In addition, the check-in process didn't take too long, and the receptionist speaks fast and swallows words so you don't just understand it

Plussat: very good food, excellent service, very clean, the view from the top was perfect

Plussat: Location. Nothing else was so good about this place.

Miinukset: The reception gave us the wrong key to the room, and there was another tourist guest inside the given room already! How poor the service was! Cant even get the basics right! The triple room was with 2 single beds and 1 sofa bed. Sofa bed was not at all comfortable. We skipped the sofa bed and had to share 1 single bed with another. The in room amenities were there there for only 2 guests, even though 3 guests occupied.

Plussat: Breakfast was good a good start to the day.

Miinukset: I always seem to have some sort of confusion at reception. Last time it was my booking was for a day after I needed the accomodation.

Plussat: Huone 14.kerroksessa oli iso ja viihtyisä. Sänky oli erityisen mukava. Huoneesta oli huikeat näkymät Colombon keskustaan. Hotellin uima-allas (26.kerroksessa) oli mukavan iso ja ihana viilennys kaupungilla kävelyn jälkeen. Myös 26.kerroksessa sijaitsevasta baarista oli hienot näkymät ja siellä oli paljon asiakkaita nauttimassa lämpimästä illasta.

Miinukset: Hotelli oli erinomainen, mutta kannattaa varautua kulkemaan tuk-tukilla kaikkialle. Jalankulku ei ole kaupungissa kovinkaan helppoa.

Plussat: Great staff, hospitality and excellent location, minutes away from the city centre

Plussat: Aamupala oli todella hyväja samoin allas 26.kerroksessa. Myös sänky oli erittäin ihana.

Plussat: The hostel was an oasis of calm in the chaotic city of Colombo. The room was nice and comfy, staff was very friendly, welcoming and helpful in providing advice for transport and places to eat. Breakfast on the 4th floor was nice with a view over the street.

Miinukset: Showers of the women's bathroom were not warm, however showers in men's bathroom were warm. Wifi connection is arranged per floor but wasn't always perfectly functioning

Plussat: All staff's are friendly, smiling and welcoming. Special thanks to the manager and all the staff's for the good job they are doing. Keep up the good work hope to see you soon.

Plussat: The staff are really what makes this place amazing, I was looked after and any question I had they were happy to help and went above and beyond to make my stay enjoyable. The place is full of friendly faces!

Miinukset: I didn't have any problems at all

Plussat: happening location

Miinukset: nothing to dislike

Plussat: The hotel is located right in the middle of the city so all the touristic places are easily accessible. The daily breakfast buffet was simple yet delicious. The bath amenities provided (pocket size shampoo, conditioner etc) were of outstanding quality. The staff were also very friendly and welcoming.

Miinukset: No equipment was available to make Tea or Coffee nor was any Iron or Hair Dryer available in the room.

Plussat: The installations are really pretty, beds are confortabke and the Breakfast staff was amazing!

Miinukset: WiFi connection wasn't consistent

Plussat: Nice beds (with privacy even in the dorms), very friendly staff, and good location!

Miinukset: Got scammed right in front of the door of the hostel from somebody who pretended to work in the hostel... watch out!

Plussat: Mukava henkilökunta. Siistit suihkut/vessat. Aamupalan hedelmät ja munakas plussaa!

Plussat: Erinomainen hotelli keskeisellä sijainnilla vanhan kaupungin ytimessä. Henkilökunta avuliasta ja puhuvat hyvää englantia.

Miinukset: Aamupala olisi voinut toki olla kattavampi, paahtoleipää ja hedelmiä. Lähialueen palvelut menee aikasin kiinni.

Plussat: very cozy and fresh envio - overall ok

Miinukset: WIFI very very bad on frist floor ,

Plussat: Room was really nice and very clean. Staff were really helpful and the airport taxi service they offer was good value for money and easy to book. Breakfast was nice, with a selection of fruits, an omelette made to your preference and roti’s.

Plussat: Very comfortable accommodation in an ideal location.

Plussat: Breakfast was exceptional (nice service and super good smoothies). Suresh was a perfect host, welcoming, helpful and yet discreet. Rooms are big and clean, bathrooms tidy, the neighbourhood nice and calm, we absolutely recommend.

Miinukset: The location is a little off center.

Plussat: Quiet, clean rooms. Spacious, comfortable beds. Good breakfast. Helpful owner. Nicely decorated. A bit small but functional bathroom. It is an honest suggestion for travellers who wish to relax before flying back home

Miinukset: Isolated. Windows should have curtains, too much light in the morning in the room

Plussat: Suresh was very nice and helpful and the food was amazing!

Plussat: The guest house is not central so it is not easy to move around

Plussat: The owner was very friendly and helpful. He arranged tuk-tuks, transport from the airport and even booked a train ticket for us. The breakfasts were also great.

Miinukset: I felt quite isolated staying there because access to the property is from a series of narrow alleyways. If there had been other guests staying there at the same time, it might have felt less remote.

Plussat: The owner is so friendly man and he lit me watching the TV and used the fridge to make my beer cold

Miinukset: I like all

Plussat: I have stayed here before and didn't think twice to book it again. Well located for the express bus to Galle - and not far to the city centre either by bus or tuk. Suresh, the owner, is a great host with lots of experience. Nothing is too much trouble.

Plussat: Very comfortable with stay

Plussat: Suresh was a wonderful host. He and his wife were so welcoming and helped us a lot with getting around and finding food what was a bit difficult due to the political circumstances. Even though the country is having tough times Suresh and his wife had always a smile on their faces and tried their best to comfort us. The food they served was super delicious. Especially the dosa and the coconut chutney *yum*! My bf could even watch the friendly lady cooking early in the morning and he could wrote down some recipes as a souvenir for home ;-) The room was spacious and really clean. The whole house is very pretty and is of a high Sri-Lankern standard. I loved the partio with the fishies :-) The internet was also 100% working - what was a crucial criteria for us. So don’t think twice and make a booking for this beautiful homestay!

Miinukset: All good! We were really happy! The location is a bit out of Colombo but with the local busses or a Tuk Tuk you can get around easily. Due to the attacks we felt even a bit better not staying in the center....

Plussat: Manager/owner was very friendly.

Miinukset: The breakfast was a bit expensive ....

Plussat: I have stayed with Drift B&B several times and I always find it excellent. The staff are extremely helpful and the place is very clean. The room is the right size and very comfortable. Will definitely stay again!! :)

Miinukset: Nothing!

Plussat: The room was very comfortable with a large bathroom and best shower we’d had in a couple of weeks. Very friendly and helpful reception staff.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Is my 2nd stay ar Drift, and keep up the cool vibe :)

Plussat: Very clean, calm and quiet

Plussat: The hostel was clean and well maintained. Raees is the best and very helpful. She is great in answering your questions, and if she doesn't know the answer, will research it and let you know. A real happy and personable young lady, who treats her guests in a professional manner. The breakfast was really good, fruit, omelette, toast, small pancakes and coffee or tea. Great start to the day.

Miinukset: Being my first time in Sri Lanka, and researched this property, I didn't factor in the traffic. The drive took over an hour due to traffic, to reach the hostel.

Plussat: Great helpful staff, wonderful breakfast

Plussat: Aamupala oli sikäläiseksi hyvä, sänky myös.

Miinukset: Hinta laatu suhde ei ihan kohdallaan.

Plussat: Excellent location to stay, rooms nice & spacious, helpful & friendly staff, the chef Vijay? was super efficient, friendly & helpful, neat clean compact place

Miinukset: The luggage lift location adjacent to the entry door steps on ground floor appeared a potentially dangerous location with very little space immediately after the entry door

Plussat: The decor here is nice and bed is really soft. They provides luggage lift there so that is nice, and the front desk is 24/7. The staff will introduce nearby restaurants to you nicely at your checking in. But I will not recommend you to pay for the breakfast there, unless your room includes it.

Miinukset: Even though my booking includes breakfast so I do not have to pay extra 5 dollars for it, the breakfast there totally disappointed me. They offer you small pieces of pineapple (very limited amount), 2 toasts, half cup of dusty coffee and one egg omelet( just egg pancake honestly). This contracts with the breakfast I had in Galle one day before, but probably this price in Colombo can only get this level of breakfast.

Plussat: Very calm place

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Great location, value for money

Plussat: Very spacious, homely environment, friendly team, supportive and flexible, no restrictions easy access, safe, parking avilable.

Miinukset: Breakfast was average, no restaurant, Manual operation washing machine

Plussat: The sense of space, cleanliness, and the possibility of a normal family life after a week spent in hotels.

Miinukset: Quite generic furniture, cookie cutter style for middle eastern guests. The area is a bit lifeless.

Plussat: The apartment suites are ideal for families: spacious, comfortable, with all amenities, including a washing machine. It is also centrally located in Colombo with a supermarket near by, useful especially if traveling with children. The staff was very helpful.

Miinukset: The breakfast maybe could be better especially for children.

Plussat: Nice spacious rooms..

Miinukset: Breakfast option poor for vegetarians Also Hot water came for sometime later it was cold only

Plussat: Everything we like. Amazing huge apartment with comfortable bedrooms big living room, huge fully equipped kitchen with every single thing you need. Dining area and all you need for short or long stay. Even washing machine and so and so. Exceptional clean an lovely. Absolutely recommend the place especially if you are family or group. Everything was excellent.... Thank you!

Miinukset: There is no restaurant on site, but there are a lot of options to eat nearby including big supermarket and small restaurants or you can cook by yourself because the kitchen is fully equipped with everything....

Plussat: Excellent location, very close to the city center and to supermarkets. The penthouse was beautiful and very comfortable. Breakfast also very well. All in all, excellent place!

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: The receptionist told us that he doesn’t have change but he will give it later, while doing check out another person says no you got your change, it’s very small amount of money but still when you promesse someone to give back the change you must give it... never get back the change !! Bad smell in the kitchen ....Expensive for what you get, find another place to stay !

Plussat: The spaciousness

Miinukset: The stove didn't work

Plussat: Hospitality and price

Miinukset: Pent house air conditioning

Plussat: The breakfast was adequate from a western stand point.

Miinukset: Responsive management team, seems to do everything right for visitors. Really, nothing to complain.

Plussat: The room @ the view

Plussat: Break fast and interior pathetic room service and room cleaning for three days they did not clean the room can you imagine

Miinukset: Supply of towels lols

Plussat: Room size only

Miinukset: The staff was very unfriendly Especially Mr Irshad the reception guy who banged the phone on our face for room service..... extremely rude man No greetings nothing by the entire staff either at restaurants, lobby, room service etc. The hotel was fully booked by our community members that too at high rates and our community were government / president guests but yet no respect was shown by these hotel people. It was sad that entire colombo people showed respect but movenpick was zero at showing respect to our community.....

Plussat: Siisti huone, hyvää ruokaa, upeat maisemat kattoterrasilta

Miinukset: Erittäin hidas check-in. Huoneemme ei ollut valmis, vaikka tulimme vasta illalla. Jouduimme odottelemaan 35-45min hotellin aulassa ja tämän vuoksi emme kerenneet käydä hotellin uima-altaalla. Omituista palvelua henkilökunnalta. Meille ei kerrottu totuudenmukaisesti kauan joutuisimme odottamaan tai minkä vuoksi. Lisäksi meille ei kerrottu check-in:ssä minkäänlaisia tietoja hotellista ja mistä löydämme mitäkin, vaan jouduimme yksin suunnistamaan huoneeseemme, ravintoloihin, yms.

Plussat: The view and facilities

Miinukset: Always had to call up reception for a few issues for example no slippers were provided toilet paper was not replenished and other issues

Plussat: Breakfast

Miinukset: Cleanliness in the room

Plussat: Love the place, staff & the amazing rooftop

Plussat: Nice big room, clean, quiet, great breakfast, good gym, excellent TV channel choice in the room, and a very nice rooftop bar with infinity pool.

Miinukset: Very minor: Could do with a nicer inside bar and a more intimate restaurant.

Plussat: Hyvä palvelu, rauhallinen huone, spa-hoidot erinomaiset

Plussat: Brilliant service and staff. Will definitely stay again. Dinusha at rooftop bar was brilliant. Excellent service. Thanks again.

Miinukset: Na

Plussat: Facilities

Miinukset: Nothing specific

Plussat: The View from the roof top bar is great, and the pool was clean, however it did start to rain, and there was no shelter so we need to finish our drinks and go back to our room.

Miinukset: Breakfast - Down stair in the lobby - took over 40 mins for a Panni + sandwich :-( Very Expensive! Order a car from the hotel reception for 8.45am, car wasn't road worthy when it arrived, they called for another car, that never showed, after many conversations with hotel staff, as time was running out for our flight, they took some action and organised other transport for our trip. Our frustration was we deliberately stayed at this hotel for several reasons. 1. It was our last night in Sri Lanka and we wanted to make sure there were no issues with getting to the Airport 2. I am a member of Accor Plus and I was aware that your brand Movenpick is coming across so it thought the same level of quality that we get with Accor would have been displayed. 3. Due to the reason troubles in Colombo we wanted somewhere secure. (which we did feel was provided)

Plussat: Stylish hotel, very nice room, lovely pool, friendly and helpful staff.

Miinukset: We arrived off a sleeper bus very early and had to pay nearly the same again for our room to check in early.

Plussat: Nice and clean. Food was good. Very close to German Embassy.

Miinukset: Room blinds are not good. People walking behind the room can see everything.

Plussat: Staff was extremely helpful in sorting out unlocking an iPhone X.

Miinukset: The paper footballers in lobby are a bit tacky - but no issues. I love the courtyard!

Plussat: Rooms, bathroom and cleanliness

Miinukset: Check in process wasn’t smooth. Breakfast spread could have been better for the rates charged

Plussat: The rooms were quite clean and room services such as cleaning, providing water bottles everyday, small chocolate treats everyday, were satisfactory.

Miinukset: When I called at the time of booking they said they’d allow the 3rd person to stay free of charge but when we arrived for check in they saw that we had come for a big event taking place at the time and so they flipped on their word and took advantage by asking us to pay $35 additionally per day! They don’t keep their word at all!

Miinukset: Efficiency at the reception was poor.

Plussat: Staff was amenable to a late checkout, giving us more time to sleep after a long haul flight. Staff made us feel comfortable about spending time at their property while waiting for a late flight.

Plussat: Staff is amazing few not all

Miinukset: Room cleaning system not good Breakfast not much items We knew somehow Same rooms given at cheaper rates then us

Plussat: Nothing specific.

Miinukset: The hotel lacked in cleanliness overall.. the Air conditioning in the room did not cool at all.. It was mosquitoes everywhere.. room.. restaurant... bar... No chance to open the windows to get some fresh air as a scourge was always waiting to enter... On check out, the reception/cashier gave me another Invoice for LKR 704.74 and forced me to pay fees for Carbon Neutral Content! Though the amount was small, it was a shock! Justification was that booking.com customers have to pay this!?
