Große Zimmer, gute Lage. Poolbereich ungepflegt.
Pros:

Großes Dreibettzimmer, Lage recht zentral. Freundliches Personal. Saubere Zimmer.

Cons:

Fotos entsprechen nicht der Realität. Einrichtumg abgenutzt, Toilette hat gerochen. Poolbereich war eine Frechheit - siehe Fotos. Dort stand ein Gerüst herum, Liegenauflagen waren dreckig, Essen wurde nicht abgeräumt. Insgesamt war der Bereich ungepflegt und kaum nutzbar. Die Fotos vermitteln etwas anderes. Sehr schade, man könnnte aus dem coolen Design deutlich mehr machen.

Pros:

I loved the design and the spaciousness of this boutique hotel which has a lovely rooftop pool. The staff were amazing .

Cons:

Rooftop area could be presented better and more accessible for guests to relax in the shade. Pool area could benefit from some shading.

Amazing staff makes this central Colombo hotel special!
Pros:

The staff were extremely helpful during the outbreak of the war in the Middle East. Allowed us to use their laptop for us to rebook flights. Friendly and chatty. Rooms are very large and modern. Rooftop pool is under some construction but has fabulous views!

Cons:

Didn’t bother us but just to be aware the toilet is directly linked to the bedroom with a frosted glass door.

Really happy stay, good location, fab room and lovely staff.
Pros:

Fantastic room, rooftop pool.

Cons:

A little bit unfinished or hackneyed around the place and a couple of lethal low level trips with could easily be ramped out. Was captured by the gents toilet at reception on one occasion due to faulty lock - so easy to replace so why haven’t they? No alcohol licence. Breakfast pretty average.

Pros:

This was an excellent base to explore Colombo from. The hotel is on a side street off the main road so it was quiet despite being central, and the room was large and very comfortable making for a good night's sleep. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and as a solo traveller I felt safe. Would definitely stay here again if I came back to Colombo.

Perfect hotel without fanfare of big chain hotel
Pros:

Excellent hotel. Clean, modern, spacious. The room was beautiful and in great condition. Lots of Bristol littlenor amens that just made sense. Great beds and showers. The rooftop pool with food service was a great addition. The staff were extremely hospitable and went onto their way to make us feel at home and comfortable. It felt genuine and wasn’t forced. All our needs were taken care of and I definitely would recommend
