We had an exceptional stay at the Shangri-la Colombo - probably the best we have ever and will ever have at any hotel! The breakfast buffet was fantastic, with seemingly endless options from all different cuisines. Service was fantastic, with all the staff we interacted with going out of their way to be attentive and helpful. It was extremely good value for money given the quality of food, service and comfort. 100% would recommend.

The dinner buffet is so good. The staff is so friendly they help to find the ingredients of foods. Sushi’s are my favorite thing in this buffet. It’s so yummy! All the cuisines are delicious and the food is making high quality skills. The chocolate fountain makes the funniest part of the buffet. And the dessert corner is so pretty.

The service and staff were exceptional. We stayed there for five nights. We are a family of four and the room was a bit tight, with two double beds. Being connected to the One Galle Face mall was very convenient. My wife liked that but I'm not a big mall person so there was limited benefit for me. The food options at the hotel for a vegan were quite limited, and there was low appetite for customising dishes (which is somewhat understandable in such a big hotel). My main gripe would be how salty and oily the food was - even when we asked for salt to be withheld on the kids' chips for example. The kids loved the pool area and the pool was still reasonably warm even at 7pm.

I stayed at Shangri-La Colombo for a 3-day ECU workshop and was blown away by the experience! My sea view room on the 27th floor (they have rooms up to the 32nd) offered stunning panoramic views of the Indian Ocean; absolutely breathtaking, especially at sunset. The back side of the hotel overlooks Beira Lake and the iconic Lotus Tower, making the location a visual treat from both angles. The breakfast and lunch buffets at Central restaurant were overwhelming, with 40-50 varieties of dishes, from Sri Lankan specialties to international cuisines. The quality was top-notch, but the sheer volume felt excessive, surely some food goes to waste, which is a shame. That said, the restaurant’s ambiance was fantastic, with airy, elegant decor and a lively yet sophisticated vibe. The Capital Bar & Grill was another highlight: great steaks, seafood, and an impressive cocktail menu. The live music added a vibrant touch, and the retro-chic atmosphere was perfect for unwinding. The hotel’s architecture is marvelous, with lotus-inspired chandeliers and open, light-filled spaces that blend Sri Lankan elements with modern luxury. The staff were incredibly cooperative and professional, ensuring our workshop ran smoothly and making us feel welcomed throughout. My only critique is the food waste concern, but overall, this is a luxurious gem in Colombo with exceptional views, dining, and service. Highly recommend for business or leisure stays!
