Review by hotel critic
Nestled in the heart of Colombo, the Residence Business Hotel stands out for its convenience to both corporate and cultural hotspots. As a travel consultant specializing in luxury getaways, I found the blend of business amenities and hospitality ideal for professionals. During my one-night stay, the efficient 24-hour reception made check-in seamless. I appreciated the accessible wi-fi, which allowed me to work remotely without interruption. The outdoor dining area for breakfast was an excellent spot to enjoy a hearty meal, featuring fresh fruits and an omelet—perfect for fueling a productive day. Most notably, Mr Imran provided exceptional service, ensuring all my needs were met. With clean rooms and a spacious twin bedroom that offered a relaxing environment, the Residence is definitely a commendable choice for business travelers seeking comfort and efficiency in Colombo. I look forward to my next visit.
