I had the privilege of enjoying a scrumptious and very tasty lunch at this hotel in the Harbour Room Restaurant. The variety was amazing from the soup, starters to the main course. It is definitely family oriented so its a place one can enjoy with all family. The location is another plus as looking out to the sea makes ones... More

The Kingsbury is indeed sparkling new but perhaps too new for its own good. The service is terrible, starting with the check in desk - too my friend and I 30 minutes to check in whereas compared to the Cinnamon Grand, they make you sit and come to you to check you in! Then we were checked in a small... More

The Kingsbury opened in December 2012 after a massive refurbishment of the old Continental (for older readers, previously the Intercontinental) with the addition of a new lobby and conference facilities. Its location by the sea (looking down Galle Face Green from odd-numbered rooms, looking at the new harbour from the evens) is unique among the newer hotels in Colombo (but... More

This hotel has just re-opened. The location is fabulous. The breakfast spread is really good and extensive. There are certain elements in the hotel lobby etc that makes it look tacky. The rooms are a bit boxy. I have seen better and worse. So this was average.

Spending 4 nights in Colombo we wanted to stay somewhere nice and The Kingsbury hit the spot. We chose an Executive Sea View room on the 9th Floor - Room 923 which was fabulous - super comfy huge bed, table and 2 armchairs, desk and chair and an extensive marble bathroom. There was a very modern safe and lots of... More

I'm staying at 9th floor for executive. It passed 11pm now. I can't sleep by very loud live music hearing from the club on the upper floor. I can hear the music day and midnight. I asked lobby manager to stop it, but he didn't. I will never stay at the hotel and you shouldn't loose your great time spending... More
