The room was in the best condition and on the right side of the hotel, offering a very good quality stay with a comfy bed and good TV channels. The dining experience could have been improved with freshly made eggs and a better juice selection, especially considering the additional cost. The location is excellent with plenty of nearby food options.

I had a great stay at this hotel. The rooms were very impressive and comfortable, although being right above the bar on the ground floor meant enduring loud music into the night. The service was top-notch with accommodating and friendly staff that helped me with various needs. The location was perfect for exploring the nearby attractions, and the dining experience, although uninspired with limited options, did have locally caught fish.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were really nice and had excellent cable TV, very clean, and the staff took care of the luggage from the lobby to the room. The service was top-notch, with helpful and friendly staff who were quick to assist and even let me keep my luggage while I went backpacking in Sri Lanka. The location was excellent, right in the heart of tourist attractions and just a few minutes' walk from great restaurants and shopping centers. The dining was lovely, although there could be more vegetarian and vegan options. Overall, a great value for the money.

I stayed at this hotel and had a mixed experience. The rooms were initially noisy as we were above the bar, but after requesting a change, we found the new room quieter, though without a balcony. The staff was friendly and accommodating, especially Prashan, who helped us with local tips. The location was vibrant, right in the heart of Colombo's old town, but the dining options were lacking. Overall, good value for money with some minor drawbacks.

The hotel exceeded my expectations with its spacious and spotlessly clean rooms, and the very comfy bed made for a great night's sleep. However, the dining experience left much to be desired with lukewarm dishes and a poor choice of food. The location was fantastic, with a vibrant street food fair and live music just outside, although I wished I had more time to explore. The service was top-notch, with extremely friendly and efficient staff who were always accommodating. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few hiccups.

This hotel is right in the heart of the Dutch Hospital Shopping area, offering easy access to numerous restaurants, bars, and shops. While the rooms lacked some amenities like a hair dryer and ironing board, the location compensates with its vibrant surroundings. Service was mixed, with helpful staff but occasional persistence in upselling. The central location is a major plus, although certain features like a bar and entertainment were absent. Dining options were decent, though some dishes could have been hotter. Overall, a convenient choice with room for improvement.
