Pros:

Fantastisk sted og meget luksuriøst. Stort værelse med alkove, skab, mørkelægningsgardiner, stor seng, tv og meget fint bad. Pool og fællesrum var enormt hyggelige og personalet var 10/10. Mig og min mand havde årsdag, og de hjalp med at arrangere en rooftop dinner for os med lys og blomster. Kan varmt anbefale dette sted. Ligger tæt på shopping.

Hospitable, warm, helpful, professional and top class facilities.
Pros:

The staff! I stayed there over the week I was performing my dad’s final right and it was a really emotional time for me. Nuwan, Wendy, Pere and Suwen were absolutely fantastic, friendly, helpful and made feel feel safe, welcomed and comfortable. They were always available and quick to respond. Not only were they professionals at their job, but also very sensitive and warm. Taprobane House showcases Sri Lankans hospitality and kindness to its best! It was hard to imagine that in the chaos of busy Colombo this hotel can provide a five star sanctuary. I’ll definitely stay again!

Pros:

What a gem in Colombo. The Taprobane House felt like home to me shortly after entering. It has a very special vibe, very warm and attentive staff, and food to die for. Definitely my new favorite hotel when I'm in the capital.

Long stay, coming again!
Pros:

I wish I could live here. I love it so much.
The staff are so friendly & chatty, but they never have made me feel imposed on or uncomfortable.
The only place that serves one of my comfort meals—toast with beetroot & poached eggs.
The rooms are clean & helps my very sensitive allergies settle.
There are rarely any loud sounds coming from the outside at night, but if there was, I feel the staff would proactively handle it.
The chefs are so nice & passionate about their work. I was happy to review their experimental dishes during my second stay.
The rough bathroom floor as so nice since I tend to slip a lot. The body lotion smells like floral incense & I love it very much.

Cons:

During both times of my stay, there were very delibitating issues. No vegetables, construction going on right outside my room or above. The noise was very loud and constant, & I'm vegetarian.
I'm not sure where to stay comfy while the room is being serviced, so I ended up not getting it during both my stays. I wish there were more vegetarian dishes to choose from.
Parking is difficult since none of the taxis actually park into the small area they provide, & that road is tiny. It causes me a lot of anxiety since I hate inconviniencing other people.
The wifi isn't great so I just relied on my data.

Top Stylish Boutique hotel
Pros:

Excellent airy and modern boutique hotel. Convenient to get around Colombo and with Barefoot and Gallery Cafe around the corner.
Hotel and restaurant are a nice respite from the hustle and bustle of Colombo streets. Rooftop pool has nice view to the ocean and feels very private. Excellent option in Colombo.

Tolle Erfahrung für 2 Tage in Colombo
Pros:

Sehr ästhetisch und schön, sehr nettes Personal, sehr leckeres Frühstück, sehr gemütliches Bett. Der Rooftop Pool war das Highlight, mit perfekt temperiertem Wasser und einer Aussicht über Colombo und das Meer.

Cons:

Die Dusche ist leider sofort übergelaufen, auch wenn man nur 2 min geduscht hat.
