The hotel is a nice discovery and a modern interior with a heritage exterior. Even the parking is underground that takes your car on an elevator. I enjoyed the facilities except a few downs. One is they don’t have an iron in the room, even the one they brought on request didn’t work. The housekeeping was requested to do the cleaning towards the evening but they didn’t show up. We asked for two plates and cutleries, cutleries were clean but the plates looked as if they didn’t wash them. Overall a positive stay.

Lovely staff and good shower.

The staff at Fairway Colombo are lovely! They always greet you with a smile and try to accommodate any requests. For me they put me in a quieter room away from street noise and allowed me late check out. Unfortunately there was some construction work going on, on the roof, which did disturb me a little, and my room smelt slightly damp when I entered as a result of what I assumed was split water on the carpet, this dried out overnight and the next day the room smelt fine. The rooms themselves are very nice and the shower is amazing! Despite the construction noise and wet carpet I enjoyed my stay at Fairway and would recommend it for a short stay.

We flew into Colombo and reserved a pickup through the hotel. Although we were almost an hour late our driver was there awaiting us. Vehicle was clean and comfortable and the drive into the city uneventful. Upon arrival at the hotel we were made to feel more than welcome, checking was quick and we were shown to our room. Although it was smaller than most we have stayed in it was very clean and not rundown in appearance. The staff was more than helpful in providing an explanation if the area and directions to various places in the vacinity. Checkout was equally easy and transport made available to the cruise port. Anyone planning a trip to Colombo I would definitely recommend staying here.
