Hôtels proches de Secretariat Halt, Colombo

This is the worst Shangri-La I have ever stayed in. The various room types are confusing. It is very unfriendly to guests who want to extend their stay. You cannot check in directly at the front desk. You must book online. Even if you book the same room type and price online, you will be forced to cancel and pay the cancellation fee before you can check in.

l'hôtel est situé au Colombo 1, à moins d'une heure de route de l'aéroport. Les frais officiels de transfert aéroport sont un peu élevés. L'espace de la chambre n'est pas grand mais suffisant pour les voyages d'affaires, mais la vitesse du WiFi gratuit est faible. Le gymnase est petit. Le personnel est très gentil et le petit déjeuner est bon.

My friend and I travelled to Colombo in January from the UK. The hotel is large, modern, well appointed. Comfortable bedrooms, ample choice at breakfast (which can get busy). Our room had a Lakeside view, pretty enough, but it also overlooked the poolside bar/club which had loud music playing till the very early hours, rendering sleep a challenge. I would recommend checking this, before you book, or stay on the other side of the hotel. However, what soured our stay was that the day after we checked in at the hotel, we were victims of a scam. As we left the hotel to walk to the local temple in the morning (still jet lagged), a man claiming to be a hotel employee started a conversation with us. He claimed his name was Sangha Perera. He appeared to be helpful, giving us directions. As it was raining, he advised us that taking a tuk tuk around the main tourist attractions would be easier and cheaper. As he was connected to the hotel, we trusted him. He 'found' us a tuktuk, and even joined us acting as an unnoficial guide. Eventually he ended up taking us to an 'officially credited' government approved jewellery shop, which had 50% off,  he even told us a percentage of profits would be donated to tsunami orphans. We were pressurised by the shop management (all men) into purchasing items.  After that the tuktuk driver told us the ride for 2.5 hours would cost equivalent of £100 in rupees, and things got very heated until we paid up. We reported the matter to the Jeevani Perera, Lobby Manager at Colombo Cinnamon Lakeside hotel. She told us the man did not work at the hotel, and an identical incident had happened previously. We also spoke to the hotel security officer, who said he would check hotel security videos. Later we even sent them photos of the man claiming to be an hotel employee and the tuktuk driver. We were disappointed to receive no response from them. BE WARNED if you stay at this hotel. Scammers are working around there, and the hotel seemingly turns a blind eye, without advising guests checking in! (SEE PHOTOS OF SCAMMERS ATTACHED). Am sure the same thing goes on outside other hotels too... We eventually went to the local police, who were helpful, and they went with us to get our money back from the jewellery shop (Lanka Sapphire Lapidary PVT Ltd., no 83 Dharmaphala Mawatha, Colombo 07), but it was not easy to do so. A salutary lesson.

The room is clean and tidy. The staffs are friendly. Facilities are nice. The sunset view is nice. There are lots of varieties during breakfast time.

C'était une bonne expérience d'hébergement. J'ai séjourné ici lors de ma première nuit à Colombo. Avant mon séjour, j'ai vu de très mauvaises critiques sur cet hôtel en ligne. Ils ont dit qu'il était discriminatoire à l'égard des Chinois. . Peut-être qu’il y a eu trop de plaintes et que cela a ensuite été amélioré ? J'habite au 23ème étage. La vue est assez bonne. Il faut considérer qu'il s'agit d'un étage élevé. Il y a une piscine à débordement et un bar à l'étage. Les boissons au bar ne sont pas très bonnes et les taxes sont très élevées, donc les prix sont élevés. le menu ne correspond pas aux prix réels payés. L'enregistrement et le départ ont été très rapides. Je n'ai pas pris le petit-déjeuner de l'hôtel, mais j'ai pris une tasse de café dans le hall et j'ai regardé le paysage par la fenêtre. Ce n'est pas bon marché mais ça vaut le coup.

Bel hôtel propre, service très efficace ! Le lit est très confortable et les draps de grande qualité. L'hôtel ressemble à un immense immeuble, la réception au 7ème étage et la piscine et le bar/snack-bar de la piscine au 26ème étage. J'ai pu payer la moitié du prix de ma chambre en plus pour pouvoir partir à 16 heures, ce qui était bien car mon vol était à 20 heures. Très bonne impression dans l'ensemble.

The hotel has a beautiful view of the ocean from the roof top pool as well as from many of the rooms. The staff were very welcoming, even though we arrived before 2pm they made an effort to get our room ready quickly and let us check in early, which was very nice after an over night flight. Its easy to walk from the hotel to a number of restaurants, casinos, as well as to some of the popular attractions in the city. The restaurant in the hotel has a nice buffet, as well as a rooftop bar. The hotel was so nice that when we passed through Colombo when we were leaving Sri Lanka, we stayed there again.

Faire du shopping en ville est également pratique. La chambre était propre, il y avait de l'eau et le buffet du matin était satisfaisant. La télécommande du climatiseur était cassée, je l'ai donc fait remplacer à la réception et la réponse a été fluide. L'hôtel n'autorisait pas l'alcool.

I recently stayed at the Radisson hotel in Colombo and was blown away by the experience. The stunning ocean view from my room was the highlight of my stay. Breakfast was delicious and it was made even better by the ocean view from the dining area. The rooftop bar with the pool had the most incredible sunset view I have ever seen. Sipping on a cocktail while watching the sun go down was a truly memorable experience. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a luxurious and relaxing stay in Colombo. The staff was friendly and accommodating, the amenities were top-notch, and the overall experience was unforgettable. I will definitely be returning to the Radisson hotel on my next visit to Colombo.

Très bien. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
