Lovely place to stay in Colombo. Make sure to get an ocean view room or better yet with a balcony. The facilities were great, rooftop bar, infinity pool, cafe & gym area all at a great price. The only downside was the painfully slow check in process - felt like I was applying for a mortgage rather than checking into a hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The breakfast area was too small and often ran out of space. Resulting in sharing tables with strangers. Gym was too loud and overcrowded. Reception on first floor, which made touring parties hogging the lift so long waits for the lift. Every morning the morning trains toots at 5am and even though I was on the 23rd floor, it woke me up everyday.

Great hotel - would definitely stay here again
Really night upmarket! The infinity pool is right on the sea and nice bar on the roof top! We had the deluxe room with the balcony - worth the money! Not loads near by - but very easy to move around with Uber Tuk Tuks!

Hitel with no wardrobes
The hotel did not meet my expectations. First, there was no wardrobe or ironing board or luggage stool in the room. It made my stay extremely difficult. Additionally, the room was not soundproof, so I was disturbed throughout the night by the constant honking of trains and vehicles. This made it difficult to get a good night’s rest.

I have mixed emotions for the Granbell. I had booked a Deluxe Double Room, Sea View so we could watch the sun set from the balcony or soaking in the bath for our last evening in Sri Lanka. Arrived at 4.30 & apparently there was ‘fault’ with our room so we were put in a ‘temporary’ room. Which to be fair was very nice and if that was the room I had booked I would have been happy with it. I was told it wouldn’t take long for our proper room to be available & I would get a what’s app message advising me (no what’s app message was received). We waited patiently for 2 hours, watched the sunset through a dirty window (not the romantic dream I have wished and paid for). I chased reception several times. Sometimes hung up on and sometimes put on hold indefinitely. I remained polite throughout. Eventually someone came & took our bags to our new room 2002. The room was excellent and my review would have been completely different if the mess up in reception hadn’t occurred. We ended up getting room service as we were shattered from traveling all day and the time we were given our room meant our evening plans had to be changed. Nevertheless the room service food arrived and was still hot and tasty (just as a heads up they ask for payment when they deliver the food, I wasn’t given an option to pay at check out which was fine by me). The bed was very comfortable & We both slept well. I did request a gel pillow but it didn’t arrive (no surprise there as the request went via reception)!
