This was our first visit to The Cinnamon Lakeside Hotel and I must say that the staff are very friendly and helpful. We had a very speedy check-in and within a few minutes were escorted to our room by the friendly Manager on duty, Jeremy. This hotel is very beautiful and a home away from home. We will recommend this... More

Last week I stayed at this hotel for 4 days and my stay was very very comfortable. The front staff (Anuradhi and Dilini) were very friendly and hospitable, besides being efficient. They helped whenever required. Besides, the breakfast was great! Good spread, fresh and tasty. I am looking forward to staying at this place again next time I visit Colombo.... More

I recently travelled to Sri Lanka for the Sri Lanka vs England Test Match in April and stayed at this hotel on the Executive Floor. The rooms were just great and the staff were so friendly and helpful that I couldn't ask for any more. In particular was Nayani and Iroshi who looked after the exec floor were absolutely fantastic...

Stayed there for 3 nights; it definitely lived up to its reputation. Quality, aroma and the ambience was beautiful all around. The Lake view was breathtaking! Moreover the staff was super friendly and very helpful. Wish I’d stayed there longer. 5 stars with no hesitation! Ralston Senn

Thank you for sharing your experience on Trip Advisor. It is always nice to hear back from a guest. Your kind words are greatly appreciated by our entire team. It is a shame that you had to limit your trip to three nights. Perhaps your next stay could be a longer one. Nadiyah Akram Marketing & Communications Manager More

We stayed there during our trip to Srilanka in December 2010. Colombo was our last halts and this was just a overnight stay. On the first look the hotel was impressive. But as soon as we entered our problems started. I believe a wedding was on and the crowd was huge, we had issues to get our car in. Inside... More
