“Amari Colombo's stylish highs, hygiene low”
Amari Colombo is a spacious, new, stylishly-decorated Colombo hotel — lovely lighting even in the bathrooms, high-floor sea views and a gorgeous rooftop sunset, a rich breakfast, friendly staff who allowed early check-in, and an excellent service attitude; it sits near the US embassy with taxis advised over walking. Two detailed dissents: one guest reports dirty sheets, towels and pillows, a torn bathrobe, a doorless leaking shower that flooded the bathroom, and all-Indian breakfast choices; another, a five-star veteran, wants better hospitality after a server spilled juice on their foot, apologized, promised napkins and never returned. Soundproofing is weak — a neighbor's TV woke one guest.
