😐 The rooms gave Japanese house vibes with low ceiling and compact space. However, good for few nights stay and cosy room. Carpeted floor and good wifi. The surrounding area of view isn’t that impressive. People often mention room, good, hotel, location, clean, rooms, friendly, water,

    Parking is limited inside the hotel. But you can park on the street next to the hotel. Staff was OK. Room was small, ac cooling was not enough.(could be a leak) Pillows were medium comfort. Bathroom had no shampoo. Overall experience was good.

    Very neat and tidy hotel. After having walked in, i understood the excellent ratings on Google and on Booking. Modern rooms preserved in a spotlessly clean condition and with air conditioning, WiFi, fridge with complementary bottled water and smart TV. Staff is very helpful and has an impeccable behaviour, and the welcoming drinks were a nice touch especially since we were really thirsty. Central location. Would return when in town. It is rated as a 3 star hotel, but I'd call it an excellent 3 Star hotel :)!

    City Hotel Colombo 02 One star despite so many goods. I am a solo traveller but always book a double room for the reasons of space and comfort. I booked a double deluxe room and upon checking in, I found it right upto my expectations. The room was large and spacious with an equally large bathroom. The bed was very comfortable. The room was good enough for two people. Ambience and the feel of the room was very nice and appealing. In fact, one of the best rooms I stayed in during my nearly two week sojourn in Srilanka. It could have easily bagged five stars. But, The ants took away four of the stars leaving the room with just one. Here's the story: I had bought some snacks including one sandwich for the afternoon tea and kept it on the table alongside the electric kettle. When I got up after about two hours I found the table full of ants with thousands of them relishing the sandwich. Hotel staff were informed and they cleaned the place and sprayed some insecticide. However, the problem was not confined to one place. Even in the bathroom ants were crawling on the washbasin and around the mirror. Eventhough I took all possible care, the table was infested with ants in the morning too. The management needs to take a serious view of this ant menace. A traveller can adjust with some deficiencies but thinking of adjusting with insects is gross. I stayed for one night in room number 407.

    Good location but I arrived at night after a 10hr flight and there was no hot water, not happy

  • 1/5 Len van H. 1 month ago on Google β€’ 5 reviews New
    The room was old, had a dirty smelly carpet on the floor that was filled with stains. The bedsheets, pillowcases, and towels all had spots on them. The room wasn't cleaned properly. The shower had a hole in the ceiling and was coming down since water sprayed at it while showering. The location is convenient. Would not recommend this place.

    Very clean and near to everything in Colombo but staff caring only about money

  • 5/5 Alecia B. 5 years ago on Google
    Clean, modern rooms, good location at a very reasonable price. Small fridge in our room, complimentary tea and coffee and small water bottles replenished daily. It's within easy walking distance to food and shops. Staff are very friendly, would stay again.

    The hotel is brand new. Everything working properly and well clean. Good bed, good shower, good AC and international channels in the tv. I believe they tried hard to give good internet to the costumers because they use a unique 4G connection in each room, however, i've even reboot the router but the connection keep sloooooooooooooooooow (even a text email was hard to send). The zone have few spots to eat.

    I have stayed at City Hotel several times, as I consider it most excellent regarding price, service and location. The rooms are clean to a fault, well planned and practical in use. The manager and his staff, are very friendly and helpful and committed to their guests, which deserves a special mention. As the hotel is at the end of Lillie Street, a short cul-de-sac, there is no traffic noise, despite being located in the center of town, near shopping and attractions. Very much recommended.

    Don’t recommended this place to anyone. No parking space to park your vehicle. Breakfast comes from outside, not good at all. Cleaning only happens once a week. I booked this for my company people and ended up with very bad reviews. It’s on the liley street and easily accessible to anywhere. But not worth for money.

    A good place to stay in Colombo. Rooms seem a little bit small. But that's okay because of other services. Only problem is, bathroom door doesn't have a lock to it.

    Quiet, comfy, close to the city centre. One of the best beds we've had in a hotel (Europe included). Bathroom was also exceptionally nice. Rainfall shower with good pressure πŸ‘Œ

  • 4/5 Lotus P. 3 years ago on Google
    Liked Β· The room was well thought out for a modern traveler with USB ports and multiplugs throughout including 110 outlets in the bathroom. The shower was excellent with 3 outlets all with wonderful water. The bed was very comfortable. Table for laptop and chair was available. A cupboard for clothes was large. No safety box. Housekeeping was very good with cleaning and vacuuming the floor but was skimpy on personal items. The staff were very friendly and helpful, especially the reception. The location was in a historical part of town Slave Island and Union Place. Loved strolling around and exploring the area. A long walk to Galle Face. The Hilton a block away was available for excellent buffet breakfasts, lunch and inner. Also, the nearby Hotel Nippon services outstanding food for dinners. Disliked Β· The restaurant was non-functional and disappointing for breakfasts. The bathroom sinks have a blockage throughout the hotel and the water backups making it disgusting. There was no TV throughout my stay.
