Fantastic residence-type business hotel to stay.Very attentive, helpful and friendly receptionist (all) and breakfast staff. Room serviced daily, and there is always help available if you need it. Healthy breakfast with tropical fruits and juice ''continental breakfast''. My experience with this hotel is excellent and up to standard. I will definitely be back at this hotel someday. Thank you.
The hotel is tucked away in a little alley across from Barefoot Cafe. The room is spotless, cozy, and filled with free coffee and cookies. Imran was very friendly and was able to arrange transportation to the airport.
This hotel is in an office building on Galle Road, a few hundred meters from the sea. The rooms are nice, aircon and ceiling fans are strong, hot shower, good breakfast. Plenty of restaurants in walking distance. Easy to get Uber or auto rickshaw out front. Will definitely stay again. Thanks to Imran and the staff for a great stay.
Main attractions were excellent location, healthy breakfast and very helpful staff especially
Imdad , Imran and Newfer who served breakfast daily,
Very secure place to stay within the city and all shopping within walking distance,
