Ceyloni City Hotel

お湯が最大熱くしてもぬるくしかならず寒かった。 ホテルスタッフは親切で鍵の閉め方が分からなくなったが教えてくれた。

Obwohl der nicht sehr breite Eingang vielleicht überrascht, befindet man sich im ersten Stockwerk bereits im Empfangsbereich. Alle Kontakte mit meinem Team verliefen sehr angenehm und jeder hat sein Bestes getan, um Sie zufriedenzustellen. Der Charme des Ortes ist eine Mischung aus britischem Geist und dem Streben nach Effizienz. Wir bevorzugten ein Zimmer mit Blick auf die Straße, da es einen Balkon hatte. Das Zimmer war sehr schön und gepflegt. Bitte beachten Sie, dass das Hotel 5 Minuten vom Buddha Tooth Temple entfernt in einer zentralen Gegend liegt und daher aufgrund des Stadtgeschehens etwas laut ist. Sauber, komfortabel und vor allem ein toller Empfang durch das gesamte Team.

This would have been an easy 4-star stay if not for a couple of issues: The bathroom/toilet lock wasn’t working. Since we were a family, we didn’t complain and managed, but this could be a dealbreaker for some. The bathroom dustbin knob was broken, so I had to lift the lid manually to throw things away. We stayed in Room 304 during the last week of January for just one night. Here’s our take on the positives and negatives: Positives ✅ Location – Right in the middle of the main city. If you're active and fit, you can easily walk to Kandy Lake and the Temple of the Tooth Relic in about 10 minutes. Plenty of eateries and stores around. ✅ The Room – Clean room and bathroom, fresh towels, a mini fridge (though empty), a spacious almirah, chairs, and a kettle for hot water. ✅ Breakfast – The staff made our breakfast experience great, even with a limited menu. We got eggs, fruits, juice, coffee, and some Sri Lankan cuisine—perfect to start the day! ✅ Wi-Fi – Decent and worked fine for us. We didn’t try the TV. There’s also a lift for easy access to rooms. ✅ The Staff – Very welcoming and friendly. Deen at the restaurant knew Hindi, which was an added bonus. Manju at the reception was super helpful. Negatives 🚫 Apart from the two issues mentioned earlier, here are a few more things to keep in mind: There’s no restaurant in the hotel. Plastic bags in the dustbins would have been useful. The room felt quite dull at night—could definitely use some brighter lighting. However, in the morning, it felt much more pleasant and comfortable. Final Verdict Overall, this was a good choice for a one-night stay. If the minor issues are fixed, it could easily be a solid 4-star experience!
