ME Colombo
Convenient location. Room was clean. Staff were helpful. Hotel needs an update. Shower went cold within a couple of minutes. Road noise was prominent and loose external fixtures need to be repaired. Balconies were a good addition but external parts of the building need cleaning

Steeped in history, good location and facilities. Good restaurant choices. Outside bar area is great overlooking the sea. Service was slow at times and hotel is a bit tired in places.
