Excellent location, but need attention to cleanliness.
Pros:

Conveniently located.

Staff were friendly.

Cons:

Old and outdated.

Detailed cleaning should be looked at, as it feels it’s been neglected for some time.

Staff, even though friendly, were very slow with service.

Great stay
Pros:

We had a pleasant stay overall. The staff were genuinely warm, friendly, and very hospitable, which made us feel welcome throughout our visit. The room was clean and comfortable for a short stay, though it may feel a bit limited if you're planning to stay for several days. Overall, a good experience, and we truly appreciate the excellent service from the team especially @bajitha @Keegan @siyumi. Thank you

Multiple Room Issues and a Very Disappointing Stay
Pros:

Our stay at Morven Hotel Colombo was very disappointing due to multiple issues across two different rooms.

In our first room, water from the shower flooded the bathroom and leaked into the room, even though the shower door was kept closed. After reporting the issue, we were moved to another room.

Unfortunately, the second room had even more problems. In the middle of the night, water started dripping from the ceiling. Although the maintenance staff attended at around 1:00 a.m., it caused significant disruption and inconvenience. The air conditioning was not working, so we had to sleep with only a fan. The shower also had a faulty hot water system—it was either very hot water or no water at all, making it impossible to have a comfortable shower. In addition, the TV had sound but no picture.

While the staff did respond to our complaints, the number of maintenance issues seriously affected our stay. We expected much better standards and cannot recommend this hotel based on our experience.
