This hotel has an old worldly charm about it. The buffet at breakfast and dinner is incredible and the staff very pleasant. A lovely touch having someone play the piano in the evening. Would stay again when visiting Colombo. They organised a great 4 hour city tuk tuk tour too which was fantastic.

The hotel is a very large and noisy one, with music at the outdoor pool area going on until midnight which made sleeping difficult. The buffet restaurant is excellent. Bed and rooms were comfy, and staff are very attentive but there was building work of some sort going on on the floor above, and I could hear something like a mouse or rat in the vents at night. Overall would stay elsewhere next time.
