We spent 3 nights in this hotel, we had paid for executive level but were initially put in a standard room. This room would not be acceptable to most people, akin to a poor motel 6, smelly, dank and very tired. For only a little more per night, stay in the executive level and it's a different world. Wonderful staff,... more

The Hilton colombo is pretty much what I would expect from a 5 star hotel, excellent rooms, personalised service, good facilities. However, there was a few negatives which I felt fell below that of a 5 star.

We only stayed one night here but it was the best Hilton we have ever stayed at and puts those in the UK to shame. We were greeted and hosted by incredibly attentive and friendly staff and our room was excellent. The ambience although that of a modern hotel was fantastic, enhanced by the 'tea lounge' which offered 30 varieties... more

We booked this hotel because we thought it was good value for money for the last couple of days in Colombo.

I tried the Sri Lankan restaurant Curry... more

My partner and I spent Christmas and New Year at this hotel. Overall, everything was excellent. As you would expect of a Hilton, the service was to a very high standard. My only complaint was the inflated prices of food/drink, etc. (in comparison to everywhere else in colombo). There are a variety of restaurants is very good and the food... more
