We arrived in Colombo at late night, so we asked for the airport pickup service provided by the hotel. The car was nice and the driver was friendly. Our room was spacious and clean. There was a small TV in our room. Something that was not good enough was the water pressure. Also, the wifi signal was quite weak in our room.

Choose this hotel because of the proximity to train station, stay 1 night only. All are fine, except that the staffs are not fluent in English.

The staff is inefficient，check—in、check-out、do breakfast is so slow！The van to airport is expensive （3500Rs）but convenient and confortable. The room is big and clean with refrigerator and teakettle，good Wi-Fi . Location is not bad，to Fort by tutu about 200Rs. So to sum up，you can stay here. 虽然酒店效率真心有点低 ，一个简单早餐都等了半个多小时，找零也要等老久，但房间还是不错 ，而且有烧水壶和冰箱，Wi-Fi在斯里兰卡算是快的了 虽然不在市区但tutu过去也就200 ，去机场有点贵3500含过路费 我们从机场过来是2200 但车新也方便，因为出门不好打的基本都是tutu，就价格来说总体还是可以

La gentillesse de mr harrington n efface pas la vétusté de cet hôtel au demeurant dans une tres belle bâtisse :il y a du potentiel. La réception est ouverte H24 et ce monsieur ne se repose jamais :il facilite votre séjour. Pour le petit déjeuner inclus il n'y a pas de choix comme proposé puisque les 2 breakfast sont identiques et toujours servis de la même façon. Pas question de demander un peu plus de boisson chaude

Does not reflect what is advertised. Poor lighting. TV channels had to be paid to get activated. AC was a disaster. The sheets and mattresses not satisfactory. Definitely not a 3 star hotel. More like a travel lodge.

Good size room, clean, comfortable bed, excellent air conditioning Downsides - shower cold despite own boiler, thin curtains so woken by sunrise

Spacious rooms, friendly staff, restaurant in the hotel, it's about 30 min walk to Colombo fort

The place was very nice, comfortable with friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommended.

After 3 weeks thrvarious places i Sri Lanka, i stayes here for 3 nights when I needed to return to Colombo. Waje, the manager, was the nicest, most aurhentic, flexible and helpful person I had encountered so far in tne hotel industry here, and maybe beyond. I had to check out before anyone normally comes on duty, and he had the kitchen make me a sack breakfast to go the night before. And when i came downstairs, he was up and waiting anyway. He sent out for English newspapers for me, at their expense, and immediately offered to change my room when the TV stopped working. He gave me sughestions on what and where to avoid. I felt like he cared. It is a 2 *, and generally caters to the local population. If you are good with that, you will be very safe and comfortable here. ( that said, it was much more expensive to book on booking.com, so book.here instead)

It was in a great location for catching early train from Marada Station to Galle

A traditional style hotel next to Maradana railway station. The rooms are quite big, and spacious. The AC worked fine, although the WiFi struggled occasionally. The staff seemed very friendly and helpful,and assisted as required. There is a restaurant on the ground floor open until 22.00, serving a mix of Indian and Chinese dishes, there is also a bar area. I will stay here again, as it suits my needs, although the local area is not central for many people.

Good value traditional hotel near Maradana railway station. The rooms are very good sized and clean. The bathrooms have individual hot water boilers so always available should you wish. AC in the room was ok and the wifi worked although the signal wasn't the best at times. Friendly and helpful staff who remembered me from previous visits. Laundry took just over a day, but was well done and cheap. They also arranged a car to the airport at a competitive rate. The restaurant was open until 22.00 which is handy as the choices around the area are limited. Beware that rooms at the front will be subject to the associated noise you find here.

This hotel was a 5 minutes walk from the train station. The hotel bedroom is very big and spacious with a huge comfortable bed and very clean. The staff were fabulous and would help with their knowledge and always with a big smile. The food in the restaurant was fabulous and plenty of it and they would even get you a beer from down the road. Would definitely recommend this place.

Staff very friendly. Rooms clean. Front room facing the road was very noisy. Changed to quite back room.

A very good budget hotel in Colombo. The service was very good.The local area is nothing special with lots of shops selling car parts. My bathroom was clean, but the bathroom tap only emitted a trickle. For what I paid (30 pounds per night) it represented good value

Good for one night, near train station! Food at then restaurant was good.

We were instantly upgraded to a suite room at Shalimar, which was a two storey bedroom with living space, king bed and beautiful slate tiled bathroom. The staff were really helpful and helped us to get the cheapest travel to our early morning flight. The hotel is really clean and nicely furnished and I would definitely stay here again considering the price was so reasonable.

Mosquitoes in the room, no bed nets. Stupid lazy desk staff, no bottled water, shampoo. Very noisy with the train at 5am. Try to find a better hotel but the standards are low in Sri Lanka.

the Shalimar has seen better days but is quite quiet and comfortable in general. i liked the weird design of my room which was like a sunken garden you went down steps to. (perhaps, however, not everyone's cup of tea). not much happening in da hood, especially after 6pm.

「エアポートタクシーを手配出来る」というメールが予約後に来たのでお願いしたが、空港に現れず電話連絡した所、「間違えた、そこでタクシーを使ってくれ」で結局一般のタクシーでホテルを探してからようやく到着したら、誰もいなく大声で呼んだり歩き回ると床で寝ている従業員が。エアポートタクシーのミスも従業員に連絡してないのが分かり最悪の気持ちで過ごした。
