Exceeded expectations for the night we spent there: staff were kind in reception and receptionist coordinated everything with other staff members to check-in. Once inside we got an elegant modern designed clean room with big TV and outstanding sound proofing (same as Hilton or Sheraton level), confortable bed, pillows, sheets and blankets... Air conditioning has very good quality as well as the bath kit and any other obect inside: so we slept perfectly. Location is central but a little bit hidden from street caos. Within walking distance there is the beach promenade, Galle Face mall and sightseeings. We didn't try hotel breakfast service or any hotel Restaurant but there are many others nearby just meters outside. The taxi or hotel driver service is recommended for its good price, so you do not risk bad suprises (beware airport guys). For sure I will prefer this hotel to stay in Colombo: it is highly recommended and we were happy to found it on Booking!

Very comfortable room in a fantastic location. Staff were accommodating and, unlike some of the other reviews here, I found the breakfast to be quite plentiful and diverse in its selection.

I was worried about the potential for loud music late into the night (as many other reviewers have commented about) especially because I stayed over a Friday night. While there was some heavy bass coming through the walls, it was neither as loud, disturbing, nor as late as I had initially feared. I got a pretty good night sleep! Only two things to mention: I messaged to request an early check-in but no one ever replied, though it ended up being okay and I was able to check in at 10:00AM as I had hoped. The second was that the kettle in my room was broken. Aside from that, a very decent stay. Would probably return next time I'm in Colombo!

Really good communication prior to visit and airport collection arranged with the hotel. Staff very friendly and efficient. Very comfortable room, although not the largest. Fresh water every day. Cafe and restaurant/pub attached to the hotel which made breakfast and evening meals very easy on days when we wanted to stay nearby. Location couldn’t be better for most of the City attractions.

Possibly due to the Christmas festivities, but music nearby continued into the early hours, making sleep very difficult.

Very well located (Fort District), this is a modern hotel, (currently under renovations) with very comfortable beds and very good service. Our room had a strong smell of paint because of the works and they kindly upgraded us to a suite since there were no more deluxe rooms available... Unfortunately it was on the 3rd floor, so near the noise of the bars and market! The room was great, wonderful beds, silent AC, Sat TV and very fast wi fi

At night it's a bit noisy, especially if you're not on the top floors. The breakfast was very poor and the coffee simply horrible (saw many guests giving up and started having breakfast in a bakery nearby) - a shame for a 4 star hotel!

The room was a decent size with the bed very comfortable, and most western style hotels we stayed in Sri Lanka. The staff were very nice and helpful. Nice location with no street noise. Restaurant and pub part of the hotel, so after a long day travelling we didn't have to go far.

There was a fan in the room which I couldn't turn off and was very loud. Housekeeping did something the next day to reduce the noise, but it was disrupting. I went to order room service, and the only option was the robot, which in theory is very cool but in practice more difficult. Reception were very helpful and sent a "person" to assist. I managed to get the order through, and it arrived 40 minutes later....but cold.

The location of the hotel is great. Nearby there are very good restaurants and bars. It's just across the Old Dutch Hospital complex. The staff is nice and friendly.

TheRoom was spacious and very clean. It was a convenient location. Food outlets below hotel were very nice, as especially the Java Lounge. Would use this hotel again

At reception when arriving they didn't give us much information regarding availability of food. We found that any of the food outlets in or around the hotel were seperate from it. The restaurant on the top floor- for breakfast or dinner was basic and overpriced. A buffet breakfast or dinner was 3000 rupees each. We didn't eat there but did use food and bars situated below the hotel.

Spotlessly clean, great location within short walking distance to Pettah and good restaurants around, recommend Ceylon Curry Club directly over the road. The breakfast was fabulous, so much choice and variety to keep everyone happy, lots of local delicacies and plainer food, fruit, baked items and eggs how you want them. Comfy bed. Jug in the room, good air con and shower. Quiet location. But it was the staff here who made this place super special, from the door lads ready with a big smile, the staff at reception always welcoming, the room service boys always friendly, the welcoming and attentive breakfast staff, and the helpful tour desk guy. This is a very well run hotel, everything is well maintained and it is well equipped, we couldn't recommend it any more highly.

Leaving! Beware of local scammers outside saying they work for your hotel! We are pretty travel savvy but they sucked us in!

Very centrally located within walking distance from most amenities. The staff were very polite and helpful. They open the door for you and carry your luggage from the taxi up until your room. The room was reasonably spacious and it was really value for money. A hotel taxi was available to ferry us to the airport after our stay.

Breakfast was the main issue. We kept being moved between the rooftop bar and restaurant and the restaurant on the ground floor. No information was communicated to us as to where to go. Each time we had to go to the reception the night before to know where to go for breakfast the next day.

The location is perfect for exploring the older parts of Colombo, and for accessing transport to other parts of the city and the country - the main Fort Railway Station is not far away. Also the pleasantly restored Dutch Hospital, as a venue for restaurants, coffee, etc, is just across the street. The room was well equipped but on the small side for 2 people with luggage. Breakfast on the roof terrace, provided by an outside service, was adequate, although most days we settled for a coffee at the pleasant coffee shop next door to the hotel. Overall, a very good choice for our 10 day stay.

Nothing very much. Extending our stay by a day, to suit flight schedules, was more of a hassle than it should have been, but only a minor quibble.
