Would not hesitate to return here and recommend it. The place was very clean and staff was helpful. Besides, we had free Wi Fi. The hotel was set in a central area.

Friendly staff, marvellous location, savoury food. Air-conditioned rooms with a balcony to sit out. Beira Lake is close enough to the hotel. What's more, getting to pettah floating market on foot takes about 15 mins.

This was cheap property with nice location and staff. Fort district was worth visiting. In our budget twin room there was a great view of the city. We liked our stay in Grand Oriental.

Just a walk down to galle face beach. Do recommend it. Room met every demand. Located within a walk to Beira Lake, which is about 900 metres away.

Awesome staff and cleanliness met the purpose. We would be happy to recommend this hotel to family and friends coming to Colombo. We could have lunch in Kinnaree set within 400 metres. Free WiFi worked flawlessly: )
