사람들이 좋아하는 이유
- Rooftop infinity pool with sweeping Indian Ocean and city skyline views
- Prime location on Galle Road near Marino Mall and casinos
- Surprisingly high-end bedding with Egyptian cotton sheets
한눈에 보기: A solid, modern city hotel that delivers on the basics but struggles with street noise and inconsistent service polish.
@LesleyRowley9142307님의 리뷰: I stayed here for a quick city break and the rooftop pool completely stole the show. Watching the clouds move over the ocean from the edge of the infinity pool was my favorite part. Plus, seeing the Lotus Tower glowing at night from my window was unforgettable.

Reality check
The 'Ocean View' is often a 'Partial Ocean View' blocked by other buildings unless you are on a high floor.
- You need a central base for business or casino hopping
- You prioritize a modern, clean bathroom over colonial charm
- You want a rooftop bar scene without paying 5-star prices
청결 & 유지관리
8.5
- Housekeeping: Daily and generally thorough, though some guests report missed spots like dust under beds.
- Bathroom hygiene: Modern and clean. Grout is usually white, but check the shower drain for slow drainage.
- Maintenance: Generally good condition as it's a newer building, but occasional reports of broken AC controls or peeling paint.
- Linens & towels: High point—Egyptian cotton sheets are crisp and comfortable. Towels are standard white hotel grade.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells fresh; some smoking rooms or lower floor rooms can catch exhaust fumes from Galle Road.

“I am booking this stay specifically for the view. Please assign a room on the highest possible floor facing the ocean. I am a light sleeper, so a room away from the elevators and any ongoing maintenance is critical.”
자주 묻는 질문 및 숨은 팁
예약하기 전에 실제로 알고 싶은 모든 것.
Is the pool adults-only?
Technically no, children are allowed, but the rooftop has a distinct lounge/bar atmosphere that feels more adult-oriented, especially at night.
Does the hotel serve alcohol?
Yes, there is a bar on the rooftop and in the restaurant, though prices are considered high by local standards (e.g., ~$40 for a bottle of wine).
Is breakfast included?
Usually yes, but it's a basic buffet. Don't expect a massive spread; it covers the essentials like eggs, toast, and some Sri Lankan curry options.
Can I check in early?
Rarely for free. They are strict about the 2:00 PM start time and often charge ~10,000 LKR ($30-40) for guaranteed early access.
Is it walkable to attractions?
Yes, it's walkable to Marino Mall (10 mins) and Casino Marina (2 mins). For everything else, you'll want a tuk-tuk.
Is there a gym?
Yes, a small but modern fitness center with cardio machines and free weights. Good for a quick sweat, not for powerlifters.
내부자 팁
- ✨
Walk 2 minutes to '168 Sea Food Palace' for authentic, well-priced Chinese food instead of eating at the hotel every night.
- ✨
The 'Partial Sea View' rooms often just mean you can see a sliver of blue between two concrete buildings—upgrade if the view matters.
- ✨
Ask for a room ending in an odd number on the upper floors for slightly better angles toward the ocean.
가기 전에 알아야 할 5가지
💡The 'valet' parking is efficient but the garage is tight—don't bring a massive rental SUV.
💡You might find a 'do not disturb' light that staff occasionally ignore if they think you need housekeeping.
💡The bathroom glass can be a bit revealing if you're sharing a room with a friend (frosted but silhouetted).
💡There is a tamarind juice welcome drink that is surprisingly refreshing—don't skip it.
💡The rooftop can get windy enough to blow your drink over in the monsoon season.
