Katana Hotels

"Dated rooms but overall happy with what was given. Responsive staff!!"

"The staff at this hotel are exceptional; I've never encountered such helpful service during my travels through over 30 countries. They go above and beyond to assist. When I booked a car and the driver was delayed, the staff quickly ordered another one through their phone and guided the driver exactly where to go. Despite being a little late for our intercity train, their support was outstanding—they even texted me to confirm I boarded the train. I didn’t miss it. That’s how caring they are. They are truly some of the best staff in the world.😍😍"

"I was given a lovely, friendly welcome. My room was super-clean and very comfortable. The egg hopper was THE BEST and is now my new breakfast favourite!"

"Loved every moment of our stay at Marino Beach Colombo — it truly exceeded expectations in every way. From the moment we arrived, everything felt so comfortable and well taken care of. The highlight was definitely the stunning rooftop infinity pool, which was not just beautiful but incredibly relaxing, offering one of the best experiences of the trip. The view from the hotel was absolutely breathtaking, especially with the endless stretch of the ocean right in front — waking up to that sight and watching the sunset from there felt magical. The ambience, the cleanliness, and the overall vibe made it such a memorable stay. If you’re looking for a place that combines comfort, luxury, and an unbeatable view in Colombo, this is definitely the one. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a peaceful yet scenic getaway. 🌊✨"

"We stayed there for Eight days. It was great experience with old world charm and modern amenities. Rooms were very clean; Staff was very friendly and polite. Specially the "Verandah" staff was very attentive, and Breakfast and dinner was great with ever changing menus. It is unfair to mention few names as a complement because it is injustice done for others who served us with great care and friendliness. As a whole our stay was memorable. We will definitely stay at Galle Face Hotel on our next visit to Sri Lanka."

"Outstanding "

"Don’t stay here unless you have to be 10 minutes from the airport. The place is in disrepair. Among many other things, pieces of carpet cover the broken hall floor tiles. Everything is in need of refurbishment. Front desk staff look like they would rather be anywhere else. "

"Clean well kept great staff and prime location with a connection to one galface mall"

"The hotel is nice but for a hilton could be better. We stayed here at the start and end of our holiday . It was a nice place to start but on our return we had a very smelly room which stank of stale smoke even though it was a non smoking room. We asked it to be fixed which it was not. The reception stuff were not as friendly compared to staff at other hotels in sri lanka and generally sri lankan people."
