    The room (not smokers) did not have possibility to open the window. I understand that I can not open the window entirely... but I wet one of my clothes and it took 2 days to dry 75%. Please, allow to open at least 10% of the range.

    The service was perfect. I had at every corner someone from the staff. The gym and the pool were kite good and the best... the restaurant with delicious local food.

    There are only two staffs at the check-in counter, and we waited a long time to check in.

    Breakfast is buffet and provides many choices. The gym is small but have basic equipments to exercise, I enjoyed it. The swimming pool and bar have nice views; we stayed there and chatted for relaxing. The hotel is near to the One Face Galle mall and ITC, the beach and the national museum. It's comfortable to stay a night here and go sightseeings before going to other parts of Sri Lanka. Service is good, offering what we need after calling.

    The delay in processing a booking. I checked in @ 18:00 and took sometime to get my room. On the next day I asked for 30 minutes late check out in case I needed this extra time, but my request was refused in a way that cannot be mentioned in my review. Nice words and politness are requested anytimes and anywhere.

    Nice and comfortable hotel. Great breakfast and services

    The check-in takes a very long time. Tired travellers have to stand in queue for more than 30 minutes ti reach the counter then the wait is for more that 30 minutes. The staff are good maybe the system is not upto mark.

    Breakfast was amazing. The variety was great and all tasted very good.

    New system delayed check in process for more than an hour. Reception staff were apologetic but as it was early morning after a flight we were extremely tired and had booked for the previous night in order to rest immediately. We were able to have breakfast while waiting to check in but still felt exhausted by the undue delay.

    Comfortable quiet room with view of Lotus Tower. Very good breakfast buffet.

    The staff kept knocking the door , asking when we are going to leave before the allocated end time of the stay. And that experience is not great. Please be mindful of that , as we do pay as the others to have a comfortable stay and not be bothered at the same time.

    It was Good. Everything as the way it was expected.

    A Very Well Situated Hotel That's Excellent Value

    • Stayed 2 nights

    At check-in we were given the option to have our evening meal at the hotel. Although an extra sum was blocked on our credit card, I was assured I could pay with local currency. It was only at check-out that we were informed that we could not pay cash unless we had proof of where we had exchanged our currency. So we had to pay on card. Whilst we could, and did, pay by card, it was an inconvenience and we would have preferred to have been told this at check-in.

    We chose a panoramic room at the Cinnamon Red hotel for the higher floor with view, and were not disappointed. We were given a corner room on the 20th floor which had a 180° view across the city and towards the sea. The huge bed was very comfortable, with 2 sumptuous pillows each. A complimentary bottle of water each in the room was very welcome, as was the tea and coffee making facilities. There was an ice machine near the lifts on our floor, which was a nice touch. The shower area was large, with a hot and powerful shower to luxuriate in, and some toiletries. The bathroom was well-lit, housed the adequate hairdryer and large standard/magnifying mirror and good sized towels. Our room was excellently looked after by a friendly, polite and welcoming young man called Gayan. He always greeted us with a smile, checked several times that all was to our satisfaction, and was happy to chat with us a little. Breakfast was to a good standard and my husband was happy to get a full English whilst also trying local cuisine. There was plenty of choice, a cooking station, and the food catered to lots of different tastes/dietary requirements. We stayed 2 nights and chose this hotel for its excellent location for visiting some of the many landmarks in Colombo. It is a lovely, clean hotel with a pool, gym and bar/snack bar on the 26th floor (rooftop). Happy hour is 5pm til 7pm each evening and a great place to relax and watch the sun set. Read less

    Reception is not spacious and in busy times it can be quite overwhelming. Would recommend a change in display, to help with queues. Staff in the restaurant was not always very responsive.

    The service by the pool was not organized.

    The pool was beautiful but one side was under construction and no coffee would be served on the rooftop you had to go down to the restaurant by the lobby. The room was spacious and with a beautiful view. Overall the service was slow and not very organized but everyone was very kind and trying their best.
