The hotel offers modern, clean, and comfortable rooms with a positive ambiance that aligns with the hotel concept. The amenities provided before flying long haul are a great touch, although the accents of RED all over the room may not appeal to everyone. The service is friendly and reflects the renowned Sri Lankan hospitality, though it strictly follows protocols. The location is fairly central, ideal for various attractions, with a vibrant suburb atmosphere and some shortcomings like not being very central. The dining options are varied but may not meet the standards of similar hotels in Sri Lanka. Overall, the hotel provides a satisfactory stay with room for improvement in certain areas.

The hotel offers rooms with modern conveniences but lacks proper announcement about them, leading to a damp feeling. The service is professional and memorable, yet lacks clear communication on room charges and policies. The location is convenient for local sights and airport transfer, although finding a nice restaurant might require a bit of a walk. The dining experience at the Flavoured restaurant is fabulous with a variety of choices. Overall, a mixed experience with room condition but excellent service and dining options.
