Morven Hotel Colombo Reviews

Satisfied

This hotel is a slice of luxury. The staff were so helpful and welcoming. Would highly recommend

Very nice location. Very spacious room and shower. The only problem we faced was the number of flies in the dining area, many sitting on food kept for buffet

Friendly helpful staff, made it a great stay. Spacious room, bed is hard but still comfortable. Great value overall , and location is an easy Tue tut ride

The person in charge at the front desk told me that I can't chat in my room and I need to charge a tip of $10. I asked him if the hotel had a written rule that we must only chat in the lobby. He said that he could represent the hotel and did not show me his so-called rule.My friend came to Sri Lanka for the first time, and he couldn't be called. The front desk kept telling me that he had called my friend, and I waited in the lobby for more than 90 minutes! I never give bad reviews to any bad businesses on the platform, even if there are some bad places, I will tolerate them. But this time the front desk made me sick. It was a very bad experience! It's early morning, and the person in charge of the front desk is in the office inside. He is not a good person. I have all the recordings! He also threatened me that if I went up to my room to chat with my friend, he would call the police. What is your reason for calling the police? He said he could refund my hotel money, but in the end he couldn't. He is really a liar. I will never come to this hotel because of this person!

It was a good stay. The breakfast was good as well.

Totally discouraged property and it “might” ruin your holiday/trip to Sri Lanka. I stayed here for 3 nights and my experiences were just so bad. I - SLOW FOOD SERVICE. I came to their restaurant at exactly 1PM for a quick lunch before catching my train and ordered only Caesar salad and black tea. 40mins have passed and the food has not been served yet. Multiple follow ups have been given and they don’t seem to care despite being informed that their service is ULTRA SLOW. I finally went to their counter and saw my salad was there, but they never served it. Take note, their restaurant was not busy at all. It was just one table with 4 people discussing something (but did not order anything) and me, 1 table 1 person. II - Unfortunately I have to extend my stay for another night as I was waiting to retrieve my passport from the US Embassy. I made the additional night through ******* and prepaid it online. I informed their morning shift guy at the reception regarding the extension of my stay and clarified with him whether I need to move to another room as its a lower category. He said no need to move and I can keep the same room that I currently have. At around 9PM, someone knocked my the door only ONCE (did not mention his name, did mention his department or for whatsoever) and then opened my door with his master keycard and I got scared and rushed to the door to check what it is and he just simply said “Ma’am, you checked-out already right?” I said no and explained everything and he just said “okay, sorry”. Again around 11PM, my telephone rang for the same stupid thing and telling me to check-out. III - Requested for coffee sachets since day 2 to the housekeeper, to front desk, to the restaurant, and it NEVER came at all until I finally left the hotel. There is just so much more that I would like to share however my feedback is getting longer but here are brief additional comments: - 3 strong guys at the lobby, and they will not help you carry your luggage down the stairs. They will only look at you until you ask them “you don’t help?” - Don’t depend on their wifi; it’s very slow. I suggest you just use your data instead. - Their room is actually dirty. You will still see so many hair on the floor. Hair from head, hair from legs or even ***** hair. DISGUSTING - Despite all these inconveniences that happened which were addressed to their manager, I NEVER HEARD THEM SAY SORRY at all. They do not care about your experience. The only good thing about this hotel is how close it is to the US Embassy. SO PLEASE, think twice before you book!

Friendly staff ☺️

The hotel is conveniently located: not far from the city center and the main attractions. The hotel is clean. But in my room there was no promised minibar (refrigerator) and such a trifle as slippers. Breakfasts are a C.

Great location! Rooftop pool, although it closed very early.

The hotel's sanitation and environment are very average, the facilities are old, the service is very poor, and the breakfast is not good. Not recommended!!!

The hotel is quite clean, there is a swimming pool, there was no refrigerator in the room, the food in the restaurant is not very suitable for Russians, they cook unusually and not tasty. The food in the restaurants of Unyvatuna was much better. The location is very good. If you have not been to Colombo before, I highly recommend taking a tour from a tuk tuk driver, they offer tours at the hotels. You can negotiate for 4000 rupees. He will briefly tell you in English and drive around Colombo for 3 or 4 hours. We saw all the main sights and the driver waited at the temples and museums. Despite the fact that at the resorts they offer to pay for a tour of the same places, but with a Russian guide for 100 dollars per person. The price is not justified.

The hotel is located in the center. The room is clean, but the windows did not open at all, which is very strange. Breakfasts are normal. But if you decide to eat at the restaurant from the menu, keep in mind that there are hotel service charges that are not indicated there and you will only be told about them at the checkout. This was unpleasant. I liked the panorama on the top floor with the pool. Very beautiful view of the city and the ocean. Very friendly staff.

The front desk was very welcoming and checked us in 3 hours early. They also prepared drinks while we were waiting and took the initiative to help us with our luggage and get on and off the bus. The waiters were very polite.
