I was looking for a relaxing 4 days after India and Pegasus certainly lived up to that.
I needed somewhere where everything was on hand which it was.
The room was spacious and clean.
I opted for the breakfast and evening meal option, I am glad I did as it’s was a real smorgasbord for the money paid and well worth it with soooo many options.
I was a little reluctant to try out the fish restaurant on site initially for lunch as I know from past experiences they charge like a wounded bull !
How wrong was I , good value for money for what was on order and the service first class.
A really nice experience was had and to top it off finding a marvellous taxi driver named Jude who was amazing and still calls me for a chat now, god bless him.

Different areas of this incredible city have their own...
Different areas of this incredible city have their own character and offerings for the visitor, so it's worth varying the locations during a stay to find what best suits one's needs and preferences. We found Mount Lavinia more walkable and good for live music. Mount Lavinia Hotel for example is a beautiful example of Brit/Ceylon architecture with a very interesting history and, even for non-guests, has an excellent lunch and dinner buffet, as well as free pool access and regular high-standard live entertainment. Nearby restaurants also had live music mid-week. Colombo generally has an enormous wealth of visitor attractions reflective of its complex and ancient history and culture for travellers (at any level of budget) who can see past the crowded commerce and traffic to the marvels and beauty of the capital of this ancient land, while seeking a deeper and more transformative experience. Overlaying all that's on offer is the entrenched good-humoured KINDNESS of the Sri Lankan people, so profound and genuine it can veritably astound the newcomer. Modern Sri Lanka has long taken back its dignity from its colonial past, but its intrinsic imperative of human generosity has remained a constant. Colombo, along with every city, town and village of Sri Lanka offers jewels, metaphorically and physically, to the visitor, like no other nation on the planet, and must not be missed by those who have the ability to perceive its value.
All that said, Sri Lankan cities need to implement vehicle pollution laws! Sensitive noses are well-served by masks.

Colombo city is very vibrant and busy,as most city's are. there are plenty of places to visit and plenty of economical restaurants offering genuine Sri lankan cuisine. I have only one disappointment about Colombo in general,which I would be more than happy to discuss with the Sri Lanken tourist board,should they contact me.

Several good malls including my favorite on the sea front, with good eating choices, places to get haircut, manicure etc. Galle Face mall reasonably close to several sites of interest e.g. lighthouse, clock tower.
Tuk tuk drivers can be a pain, taking you to the wrong hotel, or trying to get you go somewhere other than your destination e.g. gem store, massge spa. Be firm, if find good one get his number.
Good base for excellent day excursions to Galle Fort, a world heritage site. Also went to Kandi and its wondeful temple and nearby gardens.
Went in July, hot but could walk reasonable distance, unlike my next stop Dubai.
If went back I might be tempted to split time with Galle.

Surprisingly clean.
Surprisingly clean. Thought it would be similar to Indian cities but it is way less hectic, much cleaner and the people are MUCH nicer! A variety of different areas offer a lot a do from the modern area around One Galle Face shopping centre to the craziness of Pettah and the more historic areas. We felt 100% safe the entire time we were there. Huge range of dining options everywhere from western fast food chains to small local eateries. Plenty of public transport. Beautiful gardens and wonderful sunsets at Galle Face Green. Just be careful of hailing a tuk tuk on the street. They do try to rip you off. Just use the Uber App to book transport. A 20 minute Uber ride across the city literally costs $4 Australian!

Very friendly and quite people .
Very friendly and quite people . I had the opportunity to mix with citizens in public transport. The best people ever. No noise , respectable and helping strangers. A great place for Arabic travelers where so many citizens speak arabic.
The room was very beautifully designed and very comfortable. Actually the architecture of the whole hotel was beautifully crafted.
There was a smart TV available, not very common for Sri Lankan hotels. The room and bathrooms were very clean.
The front office manager Deeptha and the rest of the staff were very friendly and helpful.
The location in the heart of Colombo is very easily accessible and there are lots of eateries and shopping around the area.
Fabulous hotel. The room was really comfortable & the staff were very friendly & attentive. The breakfast was very good with plenty of Sri Lankan & European options. The best bit has to be the rooftop bar & pool, just fabulous. Tuk tuk ride away from the main attractions but really easy to pick one up outside the hotel or on the street. Close to a little grocery store for water & snacks!
Property was amazing great value for money and great staff. They recommended the best guide called Roshan if you ever stay here ask the hotel staff for his number he will make your holiday experience perfect and has great knowledge of Sri Lanka. He is great company to hang out with and will make your tour personal to your group as to where you want to go.
It's a very new hotel. Everything is spotless. One of the best in Sri Lanka. Ding room has great views. Staff at the front desk and serving breakfast are very professional. Will recommend to everyone.
