Extended trip at end of Sri Lanka tour. Hotel staff friendly and professional. Excellent buffet breakfast, high tea and dinner. Pool area is a bit public. Renovations happening at time of visit. Outside hotel Lots of Tuk Tuk drivers and men impersonating themselves to be locals giving advise dressed smartly, one man told us he was an engineer which we doubt very much trying to get us on a Gems Tuk Tuk tour. Need to walk near beach if don't want to be annoyed put us off spending more time walking around the city. Not the hotels fault they keep people off the premises. The hotel is located in the tourist area so off course you are targeted.Never felt in danger the touts and drivers were not aggressive.

The initial room we were given was terrible, you could hear the people next door breathing through the adjoining room, not great when you arrive at 5am and want to sleep. I asked to change room and was told none were available, so i contacted hotels.com customer service through the chat, and 10 mins later a room was available and the room was great. I think the hotel needs to be clearer in their type if rooms and could have sorted it out earlier. But from the everything was great.

A really beautiful hotel in a authentic old building. We had a triple room woth sea view , beautiful room but not big enough but ok for 3 persons but i think for a 4,5* hotel the extra bed they put is very bad ,it had the shape of....v. Lobby nice and big, staff very polite smiley and trying to make our atay better . Delicious breakfast. Need some renovations the outside parts and the pool deck but i can understand is difficult. Recommended if you want to feel the old atmosphere of the city

Its a stunning sea view, excellent food and very good staff. Our room upgrade made all the difference. I wish there were more plug points to charge devices (there was just one in a junior suite) and a couple of other small things were missing, but overall it is a great place. I would go again.

Tip 1: ask for no-sea view if there's a wedding function on the sea terrace, if loud music might bother you. Tip2 : for 1 or 2 travellers going to the airport ask Reception to book you a 7,500 rupee 'kangaroo cab' *private. The hotel airport transport is good, but better & bigger for a group.

I’m very fond of this historic hotel and lived here for 2 months many many years ago when I was a young child. Stayed here last about 10 years ago when they were doing major renovations. They need to do more. Some things are run down and neglected. The swimming pool decking was broken in multiple places and has not been repaired. The fridge in my room really did not work and the control button was broken. Lots of small maintenance issues that need to be addressed. It smacks of complacency at the top. Staff are good, breakfast was great and it’s a glorious setting. But it’s a very famous hotel resting on its laurels.
