Hotels in World Trade Centre, Colombo

The location is great. Rooms are spacious. But I can't explain why I didn't like it overall. They don't provide towels, the bed sheets weren't super clean, the place is pretty noisy so you need to use earplugs, there's no soap in the bathroom

I needed to blow dry my hair after washing it in the morning, but the hairdryer plug didn't fit the outlet. I reported it to the front desk, and they said they'd send an engineer. After a long wait, no one showed up. I happened to hear a cleaning staff member in the hallway, and they took a look and said they'd get an adapter. It's truly speechless; it's the first time I've encountered a hotel where I needed to use an adapter for their own hairdryer. Once the adapter arrived, the hairdryer still didn't work, so they had to replace it. Three hours later, the engineer finally showed up to 'assist'! The pool also requires crossing a road to get to, and the shower room cleanliness was just so-so. This really doesn't live up to the five-star brand and high price point.

Had a great stay at the hotel. The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout. The location was convenient, and overall service was excellent. Highly recommended for a relaxing and hassle free stay.” Very convenient Heart of Colombo.

The grand oriental hotel did not live up to its name. Sure, this would have been grand in the 18 or 1900’s, but its glory days are way past that - this hotel badly needs a major renovation and updated interior design. There are many things and items in this hotel that must never be reused again - they must be thrown away, never to see daylight again! Examples of such are: the ultra worn out sofa that have seen better bums, the discoloured sheets, the wooden furnishings chipping off. Jose rizal might have stayed here fashionably in the past, but the current interiors indeed look like they stayed the same from the 1800s. Alas, there is also an insect problem or infestation that the management needs to take care of. Cleanliness was an issue. To give credit to the staff, they were professional, warm, and friendly - embodying true Sri Lankan hospitality.

Our stay at Zest Metropole was absolutely perfect. We could check in at 11.00 AM already, 3 hours before the official check in time, without asking and without extra charge. The room is absolutely gorgeous and spacious. The service of the staff is splendid. The bed was very comfortable. The location was insanely good. Highly recommended!

This is a budget hotel. The shower facilities are decent, and the room amenities are quite complete. You can order food online and a robot will deliver it to your room. The surrounding area isn't great; there are often suspicious individuals downstairs who stare at tourists and try to ask for money or scam them. Be careful.

The hotel facilities are great, but the atmosphere was a bit tense. Overall, the hotel itself is good; the rooms and service are all up to par. However, this experience felt a bit strange. We arrived in the middle of the night, and as soon as we entered the hotel, there were two layers of security checks: first, military personnel with sniffer dogs, and then the hotel's own security. Honestly, this kind of setup made me feel a bit tense and unable to relax. I was looking forward to the sea view when I woke up, but the weather wasn't great that day; neither the sky nor the sea were very blue. The advantage of the large floor-to-ceiling windows wasn't really utilized, which was a bit disappointing. After leaving the hotel, the street outside was full of tuk-tuks, emitting a strong diesel smell. It instantly pulled me from the vacation vibe back to reality. 😑

It was a bit of an older hotel, so things are a little worn, but the room is clean-ish. I got upgraded to the suite and then it was a little scary to stay in that giant room on my own hahaha but that is my own problem! The only little thing was that the Jacuzzsi was a little dusty, so I didn't use it. Staff were friendly and nice! Room service was great. I felt very welcome there :) I'd totally book this again on a budget!

It was a very convenient place. there was a delicious restaurant supermarket within walking distance. Check-in time at this hotel is until 23:30, but it took a lot of time to arrange a car from the airport, so when I called the hotel, it was about 30 minutes late, the staff entered the hotel. he waited for me with his mouth. there was no refrigerator hair dryer in your room.

Perhaps because there are fashionable bars nearby, you could hear loud music coming from outside and it was very noisy at night. The room was simple and the shared bathroom was very clean. There was also a hair dryer, which was helpful.
