Galle Face Hotel
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.

Mount Lavinia Hotel
Very friendly and helpful staff. Very good buffet breakfasts and evening meals. Attractive location. Noisy but efficient aircon. Balcony with an ocean view. Generally quite clean but rooms quite tired and some parts need uregent maintenance e.g. the cranky lifts.
