The Den 23

The hotel was just okay overall. The rooms were a little small, and the AC worked but could have cooled better. The bathroom had all the basic toiletries, and the place was generally clean and tidy. The rooftop was the highlight with excellent food, coffee and the friendly staff. I’d recommend it if you’re on a budget and just need a place to stay for the night.

very good and "The room was very nice, the people were very kind, and they treated us very well. We stayed at the hotel, and everything we needed was available there. Overall, it was a really great trip.

Stayed in room 56. First the bad, shower rose looks like it has been dropped causing it to crack on the side and the result is the water does not flow properly. The average, food at the onsite restaurant is very slow to be served up, even with just a couple of people. The coffee was ok and it was being made by a trainee, with what appeared to be no direct supervision and he was very slow. A tiny piece of tin foil was served up on a piece of chicken. Staff preparing food need to wear a hair net. The good, AC worked well, bed comfortable and linen and towels were fine. Small grocery store close by, which was helpful. Points to note, no fridge in the room and no kettle. Note to management. Given that the room is small the selection of furniture leaves a lot to be desired. A chunky chair and a fold up camp style chair, took up a lot of room and personally a bench that could hold an opened out suitcase would be more helpful. The wardrobe is also a wasted space and a wall hanging rack would be better suited.

We had a pleasant stay in Colombo. The room was comfortable, everything was clean, and the location was convenient. The hosts were friendly and helpful. Overall, good value for money and a nice place to stay. Would recommend!

The hotel is ideal for a stop over in Colombo before or after a flight. We found the hotel staff very helpful. There’s a restaurant on the roof with a nice view and good food.
