"I have travelled the World extensively, and this property is possibly my favourite of any I have stayed in. It maintains old world colonial character and charm, with its very high standards, excellent staff, and wonderfully relaxed atmosphere. We stayed 8 years ago and have been planning g a return since. We are however devastated to hear that the hotel will close at the end of its current lease in August 2027, so this was likely to be our last ever visit."

The staff were friendly, helpful, and made us feel very comfortable throughout our stay.The breakfast buffet was excellent, with a wide variety of delicious options to choose from. The restaurant staff were always polite, attentive, and eager to ensure our needs were met. A special thanks to Devi for her kindness and exceptional service.We would also like to thank Guest Relations Executive Ivoni, who kindly arranged an early check-in for us after a long flight. This thoughtful gesture made a huge difference and was greatly appreciated.Thank you to the entire team for your outstanding hospitality and excellent service.

ITC Ratnadipa, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Colombo

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent modern property! A delight to stay here….excellent views of the ocean too. And walking distance to almost everything. The drop off/ pick up arrangements are weird with multiple levels of lobbies but that is the architect’s fault….not the hotel’s. We will definitely be back"

Skyline Escapes by The Governor

8/10 Good

"It was difficult to find the property, the security guards at the entrance to the building it is in had not heard of Skyline and when we showed them the map to explain it was where we were, they were confused! Eventually we rang the owner who spoke to reception and realised it was there, they hadn’t heard of the company name! A half hour panic ended and we then enjoyed our stay!"
