A Large, Comfortable hotel, convenient
I chose Cinnamon Lakeside for the last 2 nights of my stay as this is the hotel my daughter was staying at. We only had breakfast and a cup of tea, but these were fine.

Great place to stay on first night in SL
Great stay here on my first night in Sri Lanka. Really clean, modern, and everything you would expect from a hotel of this quality. It's also very close to Colombo Fort station which is useful if you are going to continue the trip by train! I didn't use the pool but had a drink there and it looks great - one note was that the service was quite slow! Breakfast options were vast. Would definitely stay here again.

Definitely stay here
This is a fancy place, the lobby reminded me of a cruise ship. There was even live music! The swimming pool is large and pristine, and you can watch a variety of birds in the river while you soak in the pool. The staff is friendly and accommodating, the facilities are first class and the dinner buffet is amazing.

It’s not really this hotel but there was an electrical issue in the room I was booked into so they moved me to another hotel close by. That hotel was not as nice and put me in a twin room when I had paid for a king. Then they finally moved me to another room that is connected to other guests. Not worth what I paid for at all. Unimpressed.
