TripAdvisor Review
Wonderful stay, Beautiful hotel, Warm hospitality.

I had a wonderful 8 night stay. Felt like a second home and everything was made perfect by the very attentive staff at the hotel. The food was delicious, service was excellent and everyone wanted to make us feel comfortable. No request was too much for them and was attended to with enthusiasm. I am writing a glowing review because my experience was truly that.

Once I saw past the ageing carpets in the room, everything else was perfect, the marble bathroom and decor was rich and the toiletries from Spa Ceylon were fabulous. All amenities were replenished plenty and hotel provided so much of bottled water. Room and hotel was very clean and quiet.

The food was delicious and after 7 breakfasts, there was still plenty of variety to keep me still interested (usually I get fed up with hotel breakfast after 3rd day). There was local as well as multiple international cuisines to satisfy any foodie. Chef Nuwan’s cuttlefish and prawns curries were so delicious and Dinushka in main restaurant went out of their way to cater to us.

Horizon Lounge was superb, and Dinesh and his staff were always trying their best to keep us happy. Hats off to them. The view from the Horizon lounge is just breathtaking.

Overall, it was a lovely experience in a beautiful hotel in Colombo, where there was personalised service (not just another guest). Highly recommended.

Top Class Brunch experience at Shangri La Colombo

The Shangri‑La branch was outstanding. The atmosphere and presentation were top class. I began at the Japanese counter β€” the seafood selection was excellent, with crab, oysters, and fresh shrimp, all full of flavour. I then enjoyed some dumplings and Chinese fried rice, which were very nice, but the highlight was the rack of lamb, prepared perfectly. I also tried the Indian biryani, which was flavorful, and the desserts were top quality. We really enjoyed our meal at the Shangri‑La brunch.

Beyond Grateful for the Wonderful Service❀️

Dear Shangri-La Colombo Team,

I just wanted to say a huge thank you from the bottom of my heart. My boyfriend has arrived safely, and I am truly so happy and grateful for everything you have done for us.

You fulfilled every single one of my wishes and requests with so much care and kindness. I have honestly never experienced such fast and wonderful service before. Your team was available 24/7, and whenever I had a question or request, I received a response almost immediately. I never had to wait or worry about anything.

I also know that I messaged you very often and probably asked a million questions and made quite a few special requests πŸ˜…, so I especially want to thank you for always being so patient, understanding, and kind with me. I truly appreciate that you never made me feel like I was bothering you and always took the time to help me.

Especially with all the little arrangements and special wishes for my boyfriend’s arrival, you made everything possible and helped make this moment so special for both of us. It really means so much to me. ❀️

Thank you to the entire Shangri-La Colombo team for your incredible patience, kindness, professionalism, and outstanding service. I am genuinely so happy and grateful that I chose Shangri-La Colombo for his stay.

Thank you once again for everything! ❀️

With lots of appreciation, Aji
