Reasonably new hotel so rooms are ok. However, there was very limited tolileries provided, limited linen , no TV remote and room safe was permanently locked… also don’t bother with breakfast option… basically you get what you pay for and it was one of the cheapest options in the area.

fine hotel, terrible Wi-Fi
it's really not a bad hotel. It's location is on the main road. For us this was, probably, a good thing. For someone on a beach holiday, it wouldn't be good. Our room (709) was a large, comfortable suite with two toilet rooms. We had a nice view of Colombo city from one side and of the sea from the other side. The hotel was quite dead, however, and it was, sometimes, difficult to find staff people sometimes. However, our housekeeper was friendly and wonderful (though sometimes not available, too). The worst thing, and it is quite abysmal, is the internet service. It's totally inadequate for guests anywhere. It's a shame that they are using this antiquated system at a quite new hotel.

The staff are genuine and lovely in their work but they aren’t professional. I arrived close to midnight so I understand it was an unusual time but it took 20 minutes to check me in when all I wanted was a bed and sleep. I was also to have a sea view according to the booking but I woke up to a wall and saw a slice of the sea to me left. Please dont mislead with descriptions.

we were there during a time of political uncertainty. The hotel staff was extra nice to us and was very caring. The security at the hotel was good. they checked every guest that went in. The hotel was fairly well equipped with a gym and a fabulous Spa. The toiletries on sale were very good and were reasonably priced. location was good and central and served our purpose. it was reasonably close to the Mt. Lavinia beach for anyone who wanted a swim in the sea to walk. the hotel was clean and the house keeping was good.

Modern hotel using up to date technology but profiteering is the main motive.Air conditioning is put off at midnight to save on electricity expenses perhaps causing great discomfort in midst of sleep.Room amenities are refilled in a miserly fashion.In fact no replenishments after 3pm with the alebi of Housekeeping staff having left for the day.(as if the staff carry supplies with them home)

The air conditioning- room temperature was not controllable. It was 20.6 C when I occupied. The technician who came to adjust it could not not control the temperature. At the end I switched off air conditioning. The same applies too hot water. I had to open all taps for a long time to get hot water which made me feel guilty of wasting water.

Our first room had an ocean view from a couple of blocks away. The toilet began to leak on the floor. We moved to a second room where the only way we could get the AC to shut off was to manually turn it off. The food at the restaurant was decent.

Best hotel I've stayed at in Sri Lanka. Very clean and modern. Good attention to detail like towels in the gym and at the pool. Excellent breakfast buffet. The only bad thing i could is if you shower outside of peak hours it takes awhile to get hot water. 5 stars.

There is a need to attend to so routine maintenance to keep the showers looking clean. Also there needs to be some attention to detail relation to Health and Safety eg a rail to assist you getting in and out of the pool. There is a lack of soft seating around the pool. The breakfast is average would like to have seen more whole meal bread for toast and more choice of fruit and yogurt. At times we experienced difficulty in communicating In English.
