Top Gem Museum Hotel Reviews

Marino Beach Colombo

10/10 Excellent

"A clean and modern hotel with friendly staff."

Taj Samudra

10/10 Excellent

"We had a memorable one-night stay at Taj Samudra, and the experience surpassed all expectations. The hotel’s cleanliness and the quality of the rooms and facilities were immediately evident, setting a premium standard from the moment we arrived. What truly stood out was the staff’s incredible hospitality. The smiles, genuine care, and kindness from the entire team made our family feel valued and welcome throughout our visit. Special thanks to the team at Port of Call Restaurant: Tithila, Dilhara, Dileka, Malaka, Athauda, and Prabath for their exceptional customer service, their warmth left a lasting impression and brightened our day as we departed. Restaurant Manager for taking time to chat with our family during breakfast, enhancing the overall experience at Port of Call Restaurant. Port of Call offered a superb breakfast buffet with an amazing and wide variety of items. Everything was delicious and mouth-watering, beautifully catering to all tastes and preferences and perfectly complementing our celebration of my cousin’s incredible wedding the night before. Check-out was seamless, courtesy of Executive Secretary Thamali, whose kindness and care while we waited for transport added the final, thoughtful touch to our stay. I would highly recommend Taj Samudra to anyone seeking outstanding service, superb dining, and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere. This hotel truly elevated our family’s experience and left us with smiles that stayed long after we left."

Amari Colombo Sri Lanka

10/10 Excellent

"Their service was excellent. They were super helpful. I wanted to check-out early the next morning, so I went to the reception that night and informed them to do a quick process for the check-out. They were not only very helpful regarding the check-out process but also this gentleman at the lobby packed my breakfast just because I would not be there to have breakfast. The next morning they gave me a big box of breakfast with everything I like. Honestly the best and very caring place I have ever been. Hospitality at it's best! Will definitely recommend to others."
