Good rooms, terrible service.
Like most Shangri La's the hotel is a pleasant place to stay. However the service here leaves much to be desired. Prior to my stay I had contacted the hotel about arranging to host an event. I was speaking with someone on whatsapp who suddenly stopped responding. I followed up twice afterwards but still with no response, so I gave up and looked elsewhere. Then prior to arrival I booked an airport shuttle as I was landing at 1am so didn't want to deal with the hassle of booking a local taxi from a foreign airport. I arrive and there is no car. So I have to withdraw local currency and find a cab. I get to the hotel and inform the manager on duty who assures me he will look into it and follow up. I stayed at the hotel for 3 nights and no one reached out to me to either apologize or follow up about why these issues popped up in the first place.

We've stayed at a few Shangri-la hotels and they never disappoint. We were at the Shangri-la for 10 days from boxing day and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Convenient location in Colombo with easy access to shopping mall and it's food court next door and walk-able distant to the train station amongst other amenities. Friendly and helpful staff who go out of their way to help. Good quality and selection of food at breakfast and evening buffet. Loved our stay, will be back and would recommend.
