Highlights
Location: Prime position in Colombo, minutes from business district
Rooms: 49 cozy yet chic rooms with various suite options
Dining: Famous for authentic Indian cuisine and short eats
Business: Versatile Crimson 123 event space available
History: Recognized heritage property adding cultural significance
“Here's my take: this heritage property lands you in the heart of Colombo, with an in-house restaurant specializing in South Indian cuisines. Its intimate meeting spaces suit smaller events, plus its proximity to the business district matters for those on work trips. Factor in that some found service inconsistent and the room policies restrictive, however.”
