I went to the Tintagel for dinner with some business associates. I loved it so much that I decided to spend my last night there. Unfortunately I had to leave the hotel at 1am so did not get to experience everything - I heard breakfast is quite good there. Staff was friendly and professional. The restaurant served excellent food. My... More

Imagine taking a beautiful, stately colonial mansion of grandeur and importance and lovingly and confidently given it a completely unique re-do that is modern yet sedate, calming yet exhilorating, and practically flawless in its execution. Tintagel is all of that and SO much more. How many hotels that you stay in have historic significance? Once a Prime Minister's residence (and... More

TINTAGEL has a formidable history. It is not too far from the lights and sound of Colombo, yet in such a peaceful location with just ten rooms. Staff are wonderful. Always courteous and ready to help. Food is amazingly good (but they should seriously work on increasing the portion size!), always fresh and so delectably presented. Prices seemed a little... More

Lovely hotel and magnificent room, although it's true that it could do with a refurb. All positive, except that the frequency of waiters walking between restaurant and kitchen increased approx 20-fold when my wife and I were in the pool. The pool is between the restaurant and kitchen, you see. I wonder if management could satisfy the staff's visual needs... More

This is a true gem of a hotel. Rooms have a lot of character and Charm with four poster beds and would be more suited to a trip with my wife than business trip. Staff are awesome and the food is world class for both breakfast and lunch. Certainly will stay here again as loved the peace away from the... More

We arrived at Paradise Road having stayed at several other boutique hotels in sri lanka (the Wallawwa, the Kandy House and the Ceylon Tea Trails). We expected Paradise Road would provide a similar outstanding experience. No such luck. If you don't look too closely the hotel seems stylish but it doesn't take long to notice the scuff marks everywhere, chipped... More

The hotel was fabulous. We felt we were staying in a private home. The Sri Lankan breakfast was delicious. Although there is no license to sell liquor the staff assisted us procure a drink from the restaurant at Paradise Road Gallery. The hotel offered advice about taxis and helped with on line check in beyond our expectations. Some reviews says... More

We didn't love Colombo - found it chaotic and dirty and lacking the architectural splendour and 'buzz' of cities such as Bangkok or Delhi - but the Tintagel was a calm refuge. Beautiful old colonial house with grand (albeit rather dark) bedrooms and delicious food. Service is on the whole charming and efficient, although on our last morning we had... More

Don't listen to people who say skip Colombo this is a great place to stay . More
