This hotel has an old worldly charm about it. The buffet at breakfast and dinner is incredible and the staff very pleasant. A lovely touch having someone play the piano in the evening. Would stay again when visiting Colombo. They organised a great 4 hour city tuk tuk tour too which was fantastic.

Josie, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Kingsbury Hotel is fit for a king!

The Kingsbury had a great vibe and character too. The thing we loved most of all was, the focaccia bread in the buffet, it really showed the quality of chefs they employ there, probably the best in Colombo. The Kingsbury Hotel definitely has standards.
Remona, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The staff were excellent. The cake shop made a birthday cake for my grand son which was lovely. The room was comfortable but looked like it needed some TLC .
Dominic, 1-night trip

Nice property with a great pool and buffet breakfast. Number of restaurants available for lunch and dinner. Staff were exceptional. Only complaint is the volume of the DJ by the pool in the evening. Could hear him inside our rooms later at night
susan, 3-night trip

Austen, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

An excellent choice for the last day and night of a two week trip in Sri Lanka. Got to the hotel hours before the check in time, and was given a room straight away. There are multiple restaurants to choose from for dinner. Dinner at Ocean was fab! Cocktails at the roof top bar were nice. And the afternoon by the pool was chilled. All the staff were friendly and very helpful.
Natalie, 1-night trip
