1 night stay in golden tulip Headington Ruwi

Nice comfortable room. We stayed only for 1 night. We did a very late night check in. Staff was courteous and offered us pineapple juice at 2am also! Very helpful and took our bags to our room. Parking available in the basement. Room is neat and comfy with all amenities. Staff also helped us with directions to nearby supermarket.

Average hotel

Hi, its good hotel but considering 4* star level quality is missing. Entrance lobby is fantastic bit tiny rooms & small toilets no space to move. The price they offer is low in comparison, therefore it is preferred by business travellers who stay in heart of city.
