"Beautiful oasis in Colombo: charming rooms, fantastic spa (best massage I’ve ever had!) and I highly recommend the cooking demonstration where the chefs will show you how to make Jaffna curries. A wonderful stay! "
"A little difficult to find but a great little spot in the heart of the city. Our room was lovely, very clean and the staff were very attentive. Food was very nice, if a little pricey"
"Lovely hotel in a good location. Our room was great and the staff were so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was amazing. Great choice of local and international foods to choose from. The roof top bar and pool have amazing views of the city. "
"The apartment was great, and overall the stay was good, but when I arrived, there was still menstruation trash in my bathroom from the prior guest which made me question the overall cleanliness and attention to detail. "
"Absolutely loved the stay.. Great room service menu with delicious food (try out their vegetable lumprise which was the best i’ve ever had). Cozy bed and clean washroom.. Slept like a baby.. Had a relaxing time"

Mandarina Colombo
10/10 Excellent
"It was very clean and very good customer service. Especially so many varieties of breakfast and very good.
We felt water bottles are looking refilled than a new bottle. "
"I stayed at Marino Beach Hotel for five nights recently and it was perfect. The staff made the biggest difference in my stay, they were friendly, available, and provided services immediately. This makes a big difference when you are jet lagged and need something early in the morning or late at night. During this trip, I happen to go to the other popular hotels in Colombo and realize how friendly and nice Marion’s staff were in comparison.
The rooms were clean and staff was available to clean/help at all times. Hotel is attached to a mall so it made shopping and getting meals outside the hotel easy. There are plenty of restaurants around. Easy to get a taxi/uber. Beautiful roof top pool area, clean, secure, and with a view.
The only complaint is that even though we had a sea facing balcony, the balcony smelt like food/kitchen fumes so we didn’t go outside at all. It would have been nice to seat outside and get some fresh air."
"First rate updated bathroom. Room was nicely renovated. Ocean view room worth extra. Breakfast on oceanfront veranda was bliss. Walking distance to mall convenient. Air conditioning great in room. Bar restaurant also had air con. Heat at outdoor veranda oppressively hot in evening—my opinion
Recommend this place highly "
