Top Sri Ponnambalam Vanesar Kovil Hotel Reviews

The Kingsbury Colombo

8/10 Good

"The hotel room we stayed in was on the 5th floor, overall it was fairly clean, but the carpet was fairly dirty, definitely needs a good clean or changing. Did have issues with the tv picture freezing 3 of 4 nights we stayed, mentioned it to reception the first two nights, they sent the maintenance man around who had a look at the pictures and said it’s was the WiFi drop outs and couldn’t do anything, and left, Breakfast was average, nothing outstanding, even though a good choice of western and Asian dishes to choose from. On the last night we requested an Asian vegetarian breakfast pack to take away and help with the luggage to be brought down for 6am as we were checking out at 6am and we would be leaving by 6:05-610 via taxi, But when we arrived at the reception desk 5:50 to check out and enquired about the luggage and breakfast, we got blank looks, So when reminded what was arranged the night before and they found the paperwork confirming the request, the acted on the requests, By 6:15 we finally received the luggage and the breakfast packs which annoyed the taxi driver who was waiting since 6:00, When we finally settled down at the airport to have the breakfast, we were deeply disappointed that we got a small cheese sandwich, pastry, water and banana definitely not Asian vegetarians, considering what we paid for full breakfast, it was deeply disappointing."

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."
