Like going back in time, in a good way. Best view ever. Very nice staff. Interesting experience.

Breakfast is a bit of a ripoff - would avoid.

Pleasant

Lovely lobby and reception area. V grand and cool. Breakfast was delicious.

Though the Sri Lankan breakfast was delicious there was no service at all. It would be lovely if one of the waiters topped up your coffee at least. The linen on the tables was all stained. In the rooms many of the cupboards, curtains etc were broken and chipped away. Saying it is all original doesn't make up for it being so shabby. The leaflet says there is a Stallion Bar- nowhere to be found. There was no hot water in the shower either.

A missed opportunity.

Great location, Great Breakfast except for the standard poor Sri Lankan Coffee. The staff were helpful and pleasant.

Rooms needed updating, the toilet seat was broken and just place on top of the toilet. Poor water pressure and the A/C was either on or off the controller didn't work

Ok for a night

Location is good, 10 min walking to Colombo Fort station. Rooms are big. OK to spend 1-2 nights

I would have loved to see this place back in the days, in all its splendid. Now this hotel needs lots of renovations and maintenance, everything is very old and doesn't look very clean. We never got hot water in the shower, had to ask for towels and toilet paper.

Passable

If you like to see the harbor from hotel, then you can stay there otherwise meaningless. Also there is less possibilities to get the harbor view room.

It's a very old Hotel, old bad smell also coming. And little scary.

1930s heyday, not much change since then

Its heyday was the 1930s, and not much has been changed since then. I love the history and faded colonialism. Many of the fittings were fabulously retro or broken and patched. Antique lifts. The view from the window to the internal courtyard is not pretty. The view at breakfast is wonderful, Into the port. The breakfast is fine. The staff were fine. It is clean And good value for money, I paid AU$62 for bed only.

It is in bad need of a thorough renovation, by someone like Raffles Singapore.
