There were plenty of friendly staff, but they were not attentive. We had dinner in the Indian restaurant - good quality and nice food. Overall, I would say “faded glory” in style and character - may not stay again here. ##### Sayivasantharaj Stayed 1 night in Mar 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter 8 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A wonderful hotel for a base in Colombo.

The fact they have reusable bottle program shows that they care for the environment and want to be sustainable. Also it’s right across the water, so you can do a quick walk by the sea any time. The buffet food was good, not exceptional especially the vegetarian options were mediocre at best. Although the stand alone restaurant Navratna had smashing food. ##### Vaibhav Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Atzavara Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Susanna-Hotels-Atzavara-Hotel-Spa.h71939816.Hotel-Information) > - [Villa Summerside by Ezoria Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Private-Fully-Equipped-Bungalow-Summerside-With-Pool-Table.h21783015.Hotel-Information) > - [Caravan Parks Morriston](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Morriston-Caravan-Parks.d3000431595-aaCaravanParks.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > - [Family-Friendly Hotels in Costa del Sol](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Costa-Del-Sol-Hotels-Family-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d11102-tFamilyFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Amari Colombo Sri Lanka](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amari-Colombo-Sri-Lanka.h107085966.Hotel-Information) > - [Hôtel Elysée Montmartre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paris-Hotels-Hotel-Elysee-Montmartre.h105196574.Hotel-Information) > - [5 Star Hotels in Trossachs](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Trossachs-Hotels.s50-0-d553248634834282853.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels with Parking in Harrogate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Harrogate-Hotels-Hotel-With-Parking.0-0-d7733-thotelwithparking.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Marino Beach Colombo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Marino-Beach-Colombo.h29961010.Hotel-Information) > - [NH Collection Colombo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-NH-Collection-Colombo.h17278496.Hotel-Information) > - [Wedding Hotels in Lesvos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lesvos-Hotels-Wedding-Hotel.0-0-d181073-tWeddingHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Pearl Grand By Rathna](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Pearl-Grand-Hotel.h10990211.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels near Spey Valley Golf Course](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Spey-Valley-Golf-Course-Hotels.0-l553248621532494942-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Kingfisher Tours Srilanka](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Kingfisher-Tours-Srilanka.h33987138.Hotel-Information) > - [maple Leaf Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Negombo-Hotels-Maple-Leaf-Village.h39133516.Hotel-Information) > - [Beach Resorts & Hotels in Tunis](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tunis-Hotels-Beach-Hotels.0-0-d6025910-tBeachHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels near Nessebar South Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nessebar-South-Beach-Hotels.0-l3000660857-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Kamari Beach Hotel - All inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rhodes-Hotels-Kamari-Beach-Hotel-All-Inclusive.h12498806.Hotel-Information) > - [Star Anise Boutique Capsule](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Star-Anise-Boutique-Capsule.h15869458.Hotel-Information) > - [Juliana Hotel Colombo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Juliana-Hotel-Colombo.h19407503.Hotel-Information) > - [Chapelton House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Chapelton-House.h11505992.Hotel-Information) ### Flights ### Cars ### Activities ### Packages > - [Zermatt-Furi Gondola](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Zermatt-Furi-Gondola-Zermatt.d553248621561681631.Attraction) > - [Asian Side Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Asian-Side.d6241287.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General ---
