"Convenient location, spacious rooms, great food cafe & restaurant. Am a repeat customer."

10.0

Conveniently located in the heart of Colombo. Large and bright room space and amenities. Wifi is excellent if you have to work. We'll lit and clean.

Mmm...I experienced a few minor issues but they relate more to the chill island culture than the room or amenities.

"Great place to stay in central Colombo!"

9.0

Brilliant location in Colombo, we stayed for 2 nights. As overnight guests, we could use the elegant members lounge and that was a lovely space for friends and family to drop-in on us for meals or just drinks or for us to relax at the end of a busy day. Plus the snack bar on the ground floor and outdoor courtyard, was handy on arrival. Staying there, offers a unique insight into Burgher history as the club was set up in 1908. The rooms have only recently been added, so are very fresh and modern, with a fridge, kettle and air-con etc. It is set back off a busy road but has a good space for vehicles to pull up on arrival. Walking distance to a lot of shops (Cargills opposite) cafes, ATMS and sea or super easy by tuk tuk. Plus the early check-in time from 11.00am was much appreciated. We would definitely recommend to all our friends and family.

The check-in process is odd, as the reception operates from the first floor offices and was a little messy - but no significant problem. Payment was in US dollars, 50% in advance and balance on arrival in LKR.

Location was a decider! Researching in that area.

I enjoyed our stay there, but my wife found the food a little ‘greasy’. I didn’t!!

There was a good choice of breakfast and dinner. Throughout the day the cafe was open for snacks, hot and cold drinks. The staff were helpful and friendly.
