Probably, if not the best hotel in Colombo. I was assigned to a room that faces the sea as well as Biera Lake. The hotel, which is also accessible through one of the largest mall is a huge bonus. This gives plenty of options for food. The breakfast at the hotel was amazing. Certainly will return if I’m headed back to Colombo.

The best hotel I‘ve ever been! As a life-long airline pilot I have seen many hotels, but the Shangri-La employees beat everything I have ever seen. Top quality food, very helpful employees, clean rooms. No open wishes!

Such a great hotel, such great food and the service was excellent! Pasan was great providing us with copious chai, non stop requests and was great all round, Eranda was excellent too. I wish I remembered everyone’s name, but would recommend the stay for their service alone - couldn’t do enough for us. Hotel rooms were clean, would recommend their half board option (some of the best food we had in Sri Lanka) and great shower facility too.
