The experience of staying at Wonder Hotel in Colombo

The highest score of the hotel is related to the friendly and responsible behavior of the hotel staff. Our room did not have a refrigerator, and when it rained, water would seep into the room through the hatch. In general, the room was like a 3-star hotel, not a 4-star. The food was a bit spicy for our taste but almost acceptable. The quality of the breakfast was good. The pool on the upper floor is very small and almost unusable.

TripAdvisor Review
I will never recommend this hotel to anyone.

had a really disappointing experience at the hotel. The accommodations were subpar and the breakfast was not up to par. To make matters worse, the pool was not clean which made it very unappealing to use. Overall, I would not recommend this hotel.

You’ll lose patience in this hotel

Totally discouraged property and it “might” ruin your holiday/trip to Sri Lanka. I stayed here for 3 nights and my experiences were just so bad.

I - SLOW FOOD SERVICE. I came to their restaurant at exactly 1PM for a quick lunch before catching my train and ordered only Caesar salad and black tea. 40mins have passed and the food has not been served yet. Multiple follow ups have been given and they don’t seem to care despite being informed that their service is ULTRA SLOW. I finally went to their counter and saw my salad was there, but they never served it. Take note, their restaurant was not busy at all. It was just one table with 4 people discussing something (but did not order anything) and me, 1 table 1 person.

II - Unfortunately I have to extend my stay for another night as I was waiting to retrieve my passport from the US Embassy. I made the additional night through Expedia and prepaid it online. I informed their morning shift guy at the reception regarding the extension of my stay and clarified with him whether I need to move to another room as its a lower category. He said no need to move and I can keep the same room that I currently have. At around 9PM, someone knocked my the door only ONCE (did not mention his name, did mention his department or for whatsoever) and then opened my door with his master keycard and I got scared and rushed to the door to check what it is and he just simply said “Ma’am, you checked-out already right?” I said no and explained everything and he just said “okay, sorry”. Again around 11PM, my telephone rang for the same stupid thing and telling me to check-out.

III - Requested for coffee sachets since day 2 to the housekeeper, to front desk, to the restaurant, and it NEVER came at all until I finally left the hotel.

There is just so much more that I would like to share however my feedback is getting longer but here are brief additional comments:

  • 3 strong guys at the lobby, and they will not help you carry your luggage down the stairs. They will only look at you until you ask them “you don’t help?”
  • Don’t depend on their wifi; it’s very slow. I suggest you just use your data instead.
  • Their room is actually dirty. You will still see so many hair on the floor. Hair from head, hair from legs or even pubic hair. DISGUSTING
  • Despite all these inconveniences that happened which were addressed to their manager, I NEVER HEARD THEM SAY SORRY at all. They do not care about your experience.

The only good thing about this hotel is how close it is to the US Embassy. SO PLEASE, think twice before you book!

Comfortable mini-hotel located in the busy and vibrant Galle Road in Colombo. If you shop around you can get much better hotels. This hotel does not have the infirmity pool, etc. Parking can be a nightmare as this hotel is located in the busy Galle Road, and Uber / cab can use the side entrance to pick up. Other parking facilities are not available

Convivence meets comfort….

I’ve stayed here for a one night stay due to a business activity in colombo, facilities were alright for the price, room was 217 and staff seemed tired but average communication with customers. If anyone is looking for a place around colombo for official or personal activates this is an alright place so the commute is effective and efficient. As per the average business personal and for a small family you have everything what you look for in accommodation vise, clean comfortable place, everything functioned accordingly in my room, there was an odor in the wash room but you can look pass that from my perspective to my room. There are lot of food outlets nearby day and night. Hope this was helpful. Thank you to all at “Wonder Hotel” staff for providing me a lovely stay. Best wishes. Amila
