The most wonderful and accommodating start who really make this hotel what it is
Pros:

After a small blip with our room allocation, everything was quickly and professionally sorted, and from that moment on we experienced some of the best hotel service we’ve had.

A special thank you to the wonderful Guest Services team, especially Chathurika, Kaveesha, and Mihirini, for their warmth and attention to detail. And to Ravi and Moksha in the restaurant who truly made our stay exceptional. They greeted us with smiles every day, were incredibly kind to our children, and couldn’t have made us feel more comfortable.

The Golden Crown is a lovely hotel, but it’s the staff who make it truly special. Highly recommended!

Cons:

A little disjointed
