    I liked this hotel, it was comfortable and absolutely fabulous. The staff were superbly friendly, the location was good. There were a big shopping mall and a shopping area around the venue. Everything was modern and within 20 minutes' drive of Ratmalana Air Force Base airport.

    Staff is friendly, new furniture.

    The room is stuffy and humid, the air conditioning is quite noisy. It's pretty expensive.

    helpful staff, quick access to major attractions, easy to find

    The bathroom conditions could seriously improve, with cleanliness and functionality issues!!! The lack of in-house dining and odd exchange rates add unnecessary frustration!!! Guest facilities definitely need a revamp!!!

    great location
    good breakfast
    bathroom cleanliness
    limited tv channels
    no in-house dining

    The hotel offers a convenient location with quick access to the main road and nearby attractions. A highlight was the good breakfast options with Spanish dishes. The bathroom cleanliness needs improvement, with reports of clogs and mildew. The absence of in-house dining and limited channels on the TV took away from the overall experience.

    A wonderful stay with helpful staff who even facilitated my food delivery. The breakfast buffet was good, offering a range of both local and western dishes. The room was somewhat smaller than expected.

    good location but basic amenities

    The hotel offered a convenient location with quick access to major attractions. The nearby railway station provided additional travel options, which we appreciated as a family. The city view from our room added a pleasant touch to our stay, especially during sunset.

    The amenities in our room felt quite basic and could use some updates.

    great location

    The ceylon is super easy to find and close to the main shopping area and hospital. The warm shower and decent towels were nice, but the best part was the staff! They really were very good, even helping with my uber eats delivery.
