Hotels in World Trade Centre, Colombo

I would not stay here again due to the noise levels into the evenings which prevented me from sleeping. Its a shame as other than the noise its a lovely Hotel, with friendly staff and its very clean and modern. I have raised the issue with the hotel (as well as raising when I was there) but am yet to hear anything back

The room was clean and comfortable, and the hotel's surrounding facilities were excellent. There's a KFC right outside and a supermarket. Getting around was very convenient too; even though I didn't know my way around, the front desk staff enthusiastically helped me hail a taxi. Plus, there's a simple breakfast and free WiFi. Great value for money!

Let me start with a few downsides: for a five-star hotel, there was no liquid hand soap, only bar soap. The toiletries were also very basic, small plastic bottles. We had to specifically ask for bathrobes and the low-quality disposable toothbrushes. The soundproofing was terrible; every time someone knocked on the opposite door, I felt like they were knocking on ours. The good points are: we were given two bottles of cinnamon drink upon arrival, the pool is beautiful, and the gym is decent. Apparently, haircuts are free, though I didn't try it, and there's a sauna too. We paid an average of over 600, and the taxes were quite high, so the value for money wasn't great in comparison. Oh, and the service was quite slow; we had to wait 10-20 minutes even for toothbrushes.

Although the hotel boasts a history of over 150 years and has hosted the Queen of England, it's really run-down. My room had cockroaches, geckos, and mosquitoes – a complete mini-ecosystem! The only positives were the cheap price and the decent breakfast. The dining area is right by the sea, offering beautiful harbor views.

I stayed three nights at Fairway Colombo and the hotel delivered a modern, efficient experience. The highlight is the use of robot technology for deliveries, which adds convenience and consistency to the service. Check-in was smooth, and staff were courteous and well-organized throughout the stay. The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, with reliable Wi-Fi and all essential amenities. Housekeeping was punctual and unobtrusive. The hotel’s location near the Dutch Hospital area made it easy to access dining and attractions on foot. Overall, Fairway Colombo provides a smart, contemporary stay with good service and a unique tech-focused touch. A strong option for both business and leisure travelers looking for convenience and modern comfort.

The front desk staff wasn't much helpful when we checked in. He didn't give us much information about the hotel. There was no welcome drink served and after check in we had to figure out the rest ourselves like our room floor, breakfast, swimming pool, etc. We had to communicate directly to the housekeeping manager for our extra bed. I commend the housekeeping manager and staffs for a job well done. Basically, they compensated the unimpressive performance of the front desk by surprising us with some towel arts, flowers, and fruit everyday.

Kingsbury hotel is in a prime location closer to the beach activities. Some rooms are with sea view. Shopping mall is nearby that offers variety of shops and services. Restaurants provide wide selection of food options with local and international cuisines. The rooms are carpeted which emits old odour. The room furniture needs modernising. We experienced issues with booking. They couldn’t find our booking and gave us a room in a lower floor and the furnitures were old with smelly carpet. On my complaint, we were upgraded to a suite room in a higher floor which was classy and the view was excellent. Don’t know I can afford to stay in a suite. The staffs were helpful. I didn’t have a chance to use all amenities but I noticed there were many options. I will stay again if I am given a room in a higher floor or if I can afford a suite room.

Very good stay overall. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and located in a convenient area close to many attractions. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The room facilities were good, and the check-in/check-out process was smooth. A great choice for business travelers and I would happily stay here again.

Shangri-La's quality truly lives up to its reputation. The location, service, and room amenities are all top-notch. I felt that the staff's professionalism was significantly higher than in other hotels. However, the security checks when entering and exiting the hotel were quite strict, which was a bit inconvenient, likely due to a government building being right next door. The hotel's direct connection to the mall is a fantastic feature; you can walk straight from the lobby into the shopping center, which is great for shopping even on a hot day. The mall also offers a wide variety of restaurants with different cuisines. There's a large city under construction directly across from my room, which will probably take a year or two to complete, and this does impact the quality of the sea view. Still, I caught a beautiful sunset from my room on the day I checked in. Finally, I have to mention Shang Palace – it was quite disappointing. The dishes I ordered were all very average. I had held onto some hope after seeing mixed reviews, but it didn't meet expectations. If you have high standards for Chinese food, I wouldn't recommend trying it. I hope the hotel considers improving the quality of its Chinese cuisine.

It was a very convenient place. there was a delicious restaurant supermarket within walking distance. Check-in time at this hotel is until 23:30, but it took a lot of time to arrange a car from the airport, so when I called the hotel, it was about 30 minutes late, the staff entered the hotel. he waited for me with his mouth. there was no refrigerator hair dryer in your room.
