    Actually my friend's daughter came to meet us as she is working with kuwait Airways and she was on layover. The person on reception didn't allowed her . There is no information any where in hotel reception that no one can go in rooms to meet the actual customer. Next day they put the policy that no one is allowed to meet. Also on 2 nd day they didn't clean our room, after asking the person on reception said that we clean the room once in two days. This is kind of practice is not there in any kind of Hotels. After hot arguments they send the person to clean the room. Also they have only 2 person as a staff who cooks, clean the room, show the rooms to guest, attend on reception, taking print out.

    Rooms are clean. Lift was there. Ac , tv and all other facilities in rooms are in good condition.

    The takeaway breakfast was very ordinary, cold toasted jam sandwich didn’t work I would suggest perhaps a boiled egg, fruit and a yogurt with a spoon would be better

    The breakfast was good

    The location was unsuitable for tourists, being located in an area of commercial warehouses. There were no restaurants or shops near by and we had trouble getting tuk-tuk drivers to find it.

    The hotel was comforatble enough and the staff very helpful and friendly.

    I stayed for 2 nights at port view city hotel and really appropriate with support of the staff at heart. When I struggled to find a way to Arugam Bay, one of the staff called Vije assited me to get it over. It was so helpful for me in trouble to find it. And other staff were also always looking after the guests vell well with welcoming vibes.

    It’s not a great location for tourists if you want to be near restaurants etc - the mosque and market is located down the road which is convenient but not a lot else to do and quite a far walk from the beach

    Comfortable bed and bathroom - tv didn’t work

    It was spacious and clean. We had a good breakfast. They have a free luggage storage.

    There were some points we did not like: the window of our room was directed towards a big road, therefore it was really loud. We had a desk, but no chair to sit. The toilet seat was old and disgusting. There was no room service, but with us only staying for two nights actually not necessary.

    The location near Pettah market and generally near the city center. The breakfast was buffet (tea, coffee, juice, cereals, toast, jam, butter, omelett, Indian bread (roti), vanilla yogurt, fried noodles, dahl), so all you can eat. The personell was friendly. The air condition worked well. We got two bottles of water, tea and coffee bags as well as a kettle in our room (new water bottles, tea and coffee bags upon request).

    We needed a one-night stay somewhere close to the bus station - this is a perfect option. The room was quite clean, there’s a small fridge, tea and coffee, water and basic toiletries in the bathroom. The breakfast was nice too, the choice of foods in not too big, but the hotel itself is also small, so you can’t expect something like at a resort somewhere in Turkey. You get what you pay for and it’s a great value for money. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. If you want a 5-star service, just book a 5-star hotel.
