location near galle face green. comfortable and clean room. staff is very friendly and warm. great breakfast especially our first foray into Sri Lankan food. pool looked amazing but we didn’t try it.

Location and staff. Buffet breakfast and dinner were delicious..

This is of course the best property to be at while in colombo.. the staff is super friendly starting from the amazing front desk staff who upgraded us to the event management staff who sold us the new years eve tickets.. the rooms are spacious.. the food is tasty… easy access to the malls around..

Location was nice. We could see the sunset from the ocean facing room. Courteous staff.

Awesome staff!! Everyone was extremely welcoming and friendly. Attention to the guests needs seemed primary on their list. Wonderful experience and will love to go back.

Everyone so helpful especially Chris, Uddika, and Methmi not forgetting the person who does the cleaning.

Our week long stay at the Taj Samundra was nothing short of being exceptional. From the overall quality of the food to the comfort of the rooms everything was top notch. A special thanks to the team at "Porta of Call Restaurant" along with Dilhara, Gayan, Dias, Dileka, Mr Nasitha, Mr Nilanka and Karishma. The wonderful team made us feel really welcomed and went over and above to make our stay as memorable as possible.

Lovely large room with huge luxurious bathroom. Very comfortable bed and excellent air con. Was sent some fruit and sweets to the room, which was nice. Fast room service. Enjoyed the violinist and pianist in the lobby. There is a wide choice at breakfast with several cooked to order options. Staff moved our room upon request when there was a festival on nearby which made our room too noisy to sleep.

Literally the best place ever. Didn’t want to leave

The club lounge staff exceptional especially sanjeeva plus restaurant staff good
