If you're looking for a relaxing weekend, look no further than the Shangri-La. My wife and I booked a weekend at the Shangri-la, and returned home fully relaxed and ready to resume the day to day stresses of work. The pool is well kept and the staff brings cooled towels, water and fresh fruit throughout the day. The Chi Spa is amazing! We had some of the best massages ever there. Shang's Palace and the Capital Bar and Grill are both delicious and the staff is very attentive. The breakfast buffet is enormous, and offers a bit of something for everyone, and again the staff are extremely attentive. We will definitely stay at the Shangri-La the next time we are in Colombo.
