We wanted to use the pool and have lunch only. So we were only day visitors. It was very quiet. While drinking our coffee and tea we found out the wifi cost us 500 roepia. After drinking our coffee and tea we left to find a cheaper place with free wifi.

We used this hotel before an early flight from Sri Lanka, and it did exactly what we needed it to. Its 10 mins drive from the airport, has a wide range of facilities, such as tennis courts, gym etc. We were able to get free internet access to allow us to print our boarding passes in the business centre.

The staff are nice and works 24/7. Room service is pretty decent and the connection to the airport... More

The rooms were clean spacious and comfortable and had everything we required including fridge/mini bar and safety deposit box at not extra charge. There was a good variety of food at dinner and breakfast and the staff were efficient and friendly. We didn't use... More
