A hugely positive stay at a very professional standard, with bargain prices and great location.
Pros:

This is a brilliant hotel to stay at, within walking distance to the beach and Galle Face area.
The staff are so nice, everything was effortless, and we felt so welcome.
The rooms are a bargain, and also the breakfast!
As a bonus, we were very pleasantly entertained by Dylan and (on this night) his sister, with beautiful voices and great guitar work.
We would definitely stay here again.

Warm hospitality, seamless service, and a fantastic experience overall.
Pros:

"I had a wonderful stay at The Steuart by Citrus. The hotel itself has fantastic heritage charm and a great central location, but what truly set my experience apart was the exceptional hospitality.

The entire front desk team was warm, professional, and welcoming from the moment I arrived. A special thanks to Niroshkanth for going above and beyond to ensure everything was taken care of with such efficiency and care. That level of personal attention makes all the difference when traveling. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Colombo!"

All good!
Pros:

Personnel arrangeant pour un checkout tardif, chambre et salle de bain tres spacieuses, la nourriture du restaurant de l hotel est succulente, l ambiance pub anglais est plaisante, le petit dejeuner a la carte (option English breakfast ou pdj sri lankais) était bon aussi, un bon séjour globalement mis à part la mésaventure ci-dessous.

Cons:

Un employé de l hotel m a réveillé en pleine nuit en frappant à la porte de la chambre, et en ouvrant meme, faute de réaction de ma part (apparemment avec un double de la clé)! Pas d explication obtenue le lendemain (mais les excuses de la réception quand meme!)
