It maintains old world colonial character and charm, with its very high standards, excellent staff, and wonderfully relaxed atmosphere. We stayed 8 years ago and have been planning g a return since. We are however devastated to hear that the hotel will close at the end of its current lease in August 2027, so this was likely to be our last ever visit."

Shangri-La Colombo

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful property with great views. Well maintained. Fantastic staff everywhere you turn. A true Gem!! Unfortunately the area around the Shangri La and the other hotels in the area have fallen into some disrepair and has become more chaotic and less of an oasis for Colombo that it once was."
