Top Sri Ponnambalam Vanesar Kovil Hotel Reviews

Cinnamon Life at City of Dreams

8/10 Good

"Very helpful staff and lots of things to do within the hotel block"

Taj Samudra

10/10 Excellent

"My family and I had a great time staying at Taj. Staff were friendly and buffet was good as well."

ITC Ratnadipa, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Colombo

10/10 Excellent

"We were there for 4 nights. The staff made it one of the most memorable stays we had anywhere in the world (we both travel a lot globally for both pleasure and business). They were warm, friendly and showed a genuine interest in making us feel welcomed. We were on vacation, but we had packed lots of things into our schedule. Hotel staff was finding ways to help us enjoy our visit and somehow do everything we wanted to do. Special kudos to Kaveen (for greeting us every morning with a smile and checking on everything), Emaleen (for all the traditional SL sweets!) and everyone we met at Pavilion (too many names to remember). Obviously it is one of the top hotels in Colombo so not surprisingly, the hotel is beautiful and rooms are fantastic with amazing views of Indian ocean and Colombo City. It is located at the best place for convenience and that is why we stayed there at the first place. Lot of space to meet up with friends and hang around as well. We wish we had a few more days to explore everything but I am sure Rathnadeepa will be our first choice in Colombo going forward. We visit SL regularly & have stayed at almost all the top hotels around Colombo, so we can say with confidence it will be hard to beat the hospitality and friendliness of staff at Rathnadeepa. Thank you. We really appreciate everything you all did."

The Kingsbury Colombo

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic staff and very helpful front desk."

Cinnamon Lakeside Colombo

Luxury Sky Retreat Condo Near Port City-City/Ocean Views-Fully Equipped 2 BD/2BT

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay here and really enjoyed the property. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and very well stocked with everything we needed. The swimming pool was a great bonus and was very well maintained. We especially appreciated having a fitness center with a fitness trainer available in the mornings to offer pointers and guidance. The location was also very convenient, with easy tuk-tuk rides to the mall and Port City.The host was very easy to deal with and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. It was also great to have someone onsite who was available to assist with anything we needed during our stay. Whenever we noticed an issue, the building staff was quick to respond and take care of it.There was some light construction activity since this is a brand-new building, but surprisingly, it did not disturb us at all. We had a very quiet and relaxing stay.Overall, we had a very pleasant experience and would happily stay here again. The combination of a comfortable apartment, great amenities, convenient location, and a responsive host and staff made this a great place to stay. We would definitely recommend it to others visiting the area."
