OkayJan 20185.7
Overall OK but some weird business choices
Rooms were comfortable, great showers, good beds
They have a blaring disco at the pool until 11.30pm, the drum beats shaking the rooms at the North side of the hotel, affecting 50% of the hotel. They should either give a discount for those rooms or warn people. It's a strange business choice, as the DJ plays for 10-20 people at most, who don't seem to care about the music anyway, while a multitude of clients is adversely by it. I would certainly not recommend this hotel for this very reason. Staff also did not follow up on their promise to give me another room the next morning for my second night.

This was a perfect hotel in a great location. We traveled all over Sri Lanka and found this hotel to meet or exceed every expectation. The room was perfect, the pool area was pure luxury and the restaurant choices were excellent. I would stay there again.
The only "quirk" was that the elevators were not air conditioned. But they were fast, so we didn't have to be in them very long!

Reviews about The Kingsbury Colombo
“Amazing facilities - nice swimming pool outside and several restaurants. Even though we only tried buffet, that one was amazing! Staff is trained well and very polite.”
“Centrally located near beach and markets”
“This hotel is close to perfect; the deluxe bedroom had spectacular views, it had a relaxing feel and luxurious ambience. The bed was very comfortable. The pool was very nice to chill and relax at as well. Most of the staff were very friendly and helpful. The food here (buffet) was delicious and great value. Location is also right in the heart of the city.”
“The hotel is lovely, feels very old school luxe. The staff are excellent and were so helpful when I was upset and stressed with getting home mid-corona crisis. The food is also delicious!”
