An historical gem in the city
This was an an amazing find right in the centre of Colombo city. Many attractions were within walking distance or a short tuktuk ride away.
The staff were really attentive and eager to please. The room, or suite as it was really, was fabulous; elegant and spacious, and included a small private courtyard area.
There were two small bugbears:
- the menu included pork (which we wanted) but the hotel said they’d stopped serving it due to government regulations. The government has withdrawn their restrictions on pork products but the hotel hadn’t amended its menu. As we currently live in the Middle East where pork isn’t available, this was a big disappointment to us. They need to add a note to the menu or print of new paper pages!
- the other thing is the state of the pool. It looked a bit cloudy at times and felt greasy. The manager assured us it was clean and has the correct level of chemicals in it. Also, there were some tiles missing in the pool and around the edges which were unattractive but easily solved.
These didn’t spoil our stay and we’d still highly recommend this hotel for an authentic city break to anyone who doesn’t want a 5* chain that could be anywhere in the world.
