Room 8.0 / 10 Mount Lavinia was requested by ourselves as we had our wedding there 5 years ago, arranged brilliantly by Jo. This hotel has changed a lot in the last 5 years and see local weddings as their main income. Reception staff had the standard reply of 'I will get back to you' which they never did. We'll still go back to Sri Lanka but most likely to another hotel

Room 4.0 / 10 First room we were placed in was very basic. It had two single beds, noisy air con, a funny smell and no towels in the bathroom. We requested another room which was much nicer.

Room 7.0 / 10 A good first stop on our tour. Great service from friendly staff. The rest of the tour was spent in several hotels across Sri Lanka, with Heritage Tea Factory being the absolute outstanding hotel, with wonderful surroundings, the best room we've had and lovely staff. Our only slightly negative comment would be that Jetwing Sea in Negombo was rather tired, but the staff were equally as lovely as everywhere else!

Room 8.0 / 10 Just one of the hotels we stayed in, we were very happy with all of them. The only complaint was that this hotel was right on the other side of the city which seemed rather silly when we had to drive 2 hours from the airport and then 2 hours back the next day when we started our tour.
