There seem to be three interconnected hotels: the Renuka City Hotel (the renovated section and the new section) and the Renuka Hotel. As far as I can tell, rooms have either a balcony or a view of the Indian Ocean, but not both (though perhaps some have neither): the balconies I saw faced other buildings, so I chose a room... More

This hotel runs like a charm. Rooms are sel-sufficient. Not extremely modern, but has all the amenities one requires. Choose a room away from the main road and closer to the sea. Rooms in the higher floors are better. Don't miss an opportunity to dip into the pool. They could do with larger TV screens in their rooms.

The hotel is located on Galle Road close the World Trade Centre. Easily accessible from most business installations and the beach front. Couple of tweaks to their breakfast offering and they should be good. If you are a frequent traveller the breakfast menu can be a rude shock, half the buffet is srilankan cuisine which has to offer veg and... More

Great place to stay, friendly staff, modern rooms. Swimming pool looks over the ocean & the gym facilities are brand new. Would recommend people to stay here. It's close to the fort area & attractions in Colombo. The restaurant was great value for money & the staff always helpful.

After a 4 hour round trip looking for good quality room. This is by far the best IMO. It's $117pm for the premium rooms and it really is the best place to stay. The food downstairs is awesome and a lot better than many places we have been to in Sri Lanka. Most places we have found have been damp,... More

Arrived at 4pm this afternoon and after a lovely swim on the rooftop in the infinity pool watching the sun go down, we began our hunt for a better room.
