Summary: Nice to be out of Colombo. Staff are lovely. The rooms needed a big deep clean. Bathrooms had lots of mould and dirt. Under the beds had leftover over food. No hot water the entire 4 nights. Requested a baby cot twice and it never arrived. Informed that laundry service was not available in the low season. TV wouldn’t turn on. Food was left rotting in the hallway for days. Pool area was great. The restaurant and pool staff fantastic.

Summary: Amazing location, but the hotel is tired, rooms dirty.

Summary: Very old hotel with less maintenance.

Summary: Most guests like myself will likely view the Mt Lavinia Hotel as a historic, heritage-listed establishment, and consider its dated facilities to be acceptable, or even part of its charm. However, it was clear that the people-centred aspects of the service were not prioritised to deliver high-quality service, making for a deeply disappointing stay. Firstly, the reception was dreadful. Upon arrival, there was not a single smile or word of welcome; having no choice, I asked if I could check in there, to which the female receptionist merely pointed to another counter without uttering a word. Even in the renowned and popular buffet restaurant, with the exception of a man who appeared to be the manager, the young staff preparing the food showed no smiles and merely gave mechanical responses; there was no sense of hospitality whatsoever. This is less a personal failing and more a sign that senior management is failing to provide the training necessary for these young staff to develop their professional skills. I had been looking forward to visiting for the first time in a while since the pandemic, but I doubt I will be staying there again.

Summary: Is this hotel really four-star standard⁉️ I traveled from the USA to visit my family in Sri Lanka and reserved a two-night stay at Mount Lavinia Hotel. After more than 32 hours of flying, I arrived just before check-in time only to be told they couldn’t find my reservation. First, I want to give credit to the staff — they did their very best to accommodate me and were kind and professional throughout. However, the property management has clearly neglected many necessary updates. The hotel does not meet four-star standards. From the lobby to the rooms, the entire place needs serious renovation. There’s a musty, moldy smell throughout. The rooms were dirty — stained carpets, cracked and broken walls, damaged bathroom tiles and tubs, and very poor lighting that made everything feel dark and uninviting. I had to wait nearly an hour before they finally sorted out my room. Breakfast was great, and again, the staff were lovely — but overall, this place is not worth the money. It’s really sad because this is a gorgeous historic building in an amazing beachfront location. With proper upkeep and modernization, it could be truly exceptional.🔥❤️ Sudath

Summary: The hotel still has the charm . The doormen make it , dressed the part and charming . The rooms are now shabby ,dirty , grouting all black in bathroom , bedroom walls are mouldy and the carpets need ripping out . 3 star at best The sun loungers poolside have nice thick mattress on so comfort exceeds the Kingsbury and cinnamon lakeside as we have stayed in all three this trip .

Summary: 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.
