Fantastic Buffet Experience

“I had an very nice dining experience at the hotel's main restaurant. The daily buffet had a variety of dishes, including Sri Lankan, Indian, Chinese, and Japanese cuisines. I particularly enjoyed the panoramic view of the Colombo Harbour while indulging in my meals. The service provided by Mr. Kapila, the Restaurant Manager, was exemplary. He made sure our dining experience was really good.” view full review

Charming Colonial Ambiance

“My stay in the Grand Oriental Hotel was nice, mostly due to its unique room features. The spacious rooms, styled in colonial design, felt like stepping back in time. Though simple, I appreciated the cleanliness and character of the decor. I felt comfortable and relaxed throughout my stay, enjoying the sense of history that filled the hotel.” view full review

Classic Entertainment Vibes

“One of the quaint features that I loved was the classic television in my room. Although it was a 1990s box screen and not a flat-screen, it added to the old-world charm of the hotel. It was like a nostalgic journey back to an earlier time, making my evenings in the room quite enjoyable, despite the lack of modern amenities.” view full review

Characterful Yet Functional

“The bathroom in my room had an antiquated but charming layout. While the shower had its quirks like fluctuating temperatures, it was amazingly clean. I appreciated the vintage character of the space, which perfectly complemented the overall ambiance of the hotel. Despite its age, I found it functional and satisfactory for my needs.” view full review
