10/10 Excellent

"The rooms are well furnished, The hotel has great choice in available food for breakfast and dinner which is very tasty. There is Siri Lankan, chinese and other types of cuisine, The staff are attentive and provide excellent service. The lobby areas are attractive"

The Kingsbury Colombo

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed briefly at the Kingsbury and our overall experience was fantastic. It's central location is great for exploring Colombo if your trip is short and the actual hotel and food is fantastic. Our room was spacious and clean, and had a great view. The only minor issue is that staff weren't communicative at the restaurants about how to order or the expectation for the buffet/high tea or settling the bill. It was slightly awkward trying to figure out whether we could just grab food or we had to wait etc. It'd be nice if staff provided direction."
