Amora Lagoon Hotel

Very near to the airport Nice breakfast at the restaurant Warm welcome by the male receptionist

More stairs to climb up with huge luggage (Staff helped for us)

Amazing service!

None

Convenient and early check out, Miss Shakya & Miss Nimna were very helpful

Only Nescafé no fresh coffee

Breakfast was very good and the location is very good as well as most of the staff

One female front office staff was very rude

Good location and decent rooms

Confused about the booking, mistake in arranging a smaller taxi and limited breakfast

A lovely, calm, and peaceful place with a great location. It’s very convenient, and we really enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere. Highly recommended!

We really liked this property. It’s in a beautiful, peaceful, and relaxing location, yet it’s very convenient. The staff were all very friendly. If I’m not mistaken, the receptionist, Mr. Nimna, was especially kind, welcoming, and provided a very quick and smooth check-in. The restaurant staff were also helpful and attentive. The food was delicious, and we had a wonderful stay. Highly recommended!

The only issues we experienced were that the room air conditioning was not working properly and the temperature did not go below 27°C. Also, it would be great if the hotel could provide a kids’ menu. The breakfast buffet closing time of 9:00 AM is a little early, so extending it until at least 10:00 AM would be more convenient for guests, especially families.

We asked for a family room, but no extra bed was made. Towels were missing from the room.

It is close to the airport and easy to get there which is what we needed.

We were travelling with our 1 year old child and I have requested a crib, which is mentioned in the description of the place. When we arrived we found out that the hotel does not have any cribs, so the staff improvised and made us a separate bed out of an armchair and extra pillows. After asking for a room on the ground floor during the booking process, because of luggage and baby stroller, we were provided with a room on the 3rd floor and the place does not have an elevator. We did see a rat on the grounds as well.

Nothing..

Communication of staff very poor. Rooms were not ready whne we arrived. Will not recommend

Good ambience..neat and clean, well maintained. Good staff. Very cordial and customer centric. Special mention goes to Mr chaminda perreria.

Food options are limited. Undercooked dishes. There's no buffet breakfast options available everyday as a standard and no communication on the same to the customers on its availability. Ala cartee menu is limited especially when it comes to breakfast.. something which can be improved going forward. Quality and quantity of food can improve.

The pool and gardens are well maintained. There are lots of staff who are really helpful and pleasant. It’s a very difficult time for everyone at the moment because of the war and there were very few guests.

The bar only served beer and non alcoholic drinks, despite the facilities on booking.com showing a bar and the picture of a cocktail glass. This wouldn’t have been a problem if we knew before we booked.

Friendly staff

None

Everything

Eine sehr schöne, saubere Anlage

Der Pool

Krásné prostorné pokoje ,čisté,skvělé prostředí blízko letiste ,bazén,lehátka, uplne luxusní snídaně, akvele večeře, příjemný personál

We prolonged our stay here when our flight was delayed again due to the situation in the ME. Such a lovely base with really friendly and helpful staff. We are in the restaurant each night as the food was good and beautifully presented and served.

Nothing

We came here due to a cancelled flight and have stayed here for 5 days. The staff could not have been more welcoming and helpful. The pool area is lovely for relaxing and the room is spacious and clean with our own balcony. Breakfast is good. We will be sad to leave tomorrow

Nothing

Great location for the airport.

All fine.

Good staff,

Too much noise from party celebrations

Lunch was OK. Staff were friendly and helpful especially when trying to sort out airport transport via local providers.

Lack of drink choice (only beer and Coke Zero available), no airport transfer driver available, restaurant was also a staff meeting room, advertised pictures of hotel seemed to be different to the actual hotel, noisey and drunk guests with loud music by the pool. I appreciate it was New Years Eve but it is still an open hotel so should still function as required.

夜中に着く場合、空港から近い

エアポートピックアップを頼んだのに、手配されていなかった。タオルも小さい手を拭くタオルがなかった。

Das überteuerte Bier

Internet ging nicht, sehr unfreundliches Personal, viele Moskito

The stay was for one night before leaving early in the morning. The hotel is showing its age. The staff are very friendly and helpful

괜찮은 호텔입니다, 조식도 좋아요

밤 11시 30분 까지 행사를 하여 소란 스러웠는데, 거기에 도로 소음도 우려하였는데, 그리 심하지 않았습니다. 가겨

I had a very pleasant stay at your hotel. The room was comfortable, clean, and well-maintained. The staff were friendly, helpful, and always welcoming, which made the experience even better. Thank you for the great service, I truly enjoyed my stay!

Spacious rooms, clean, pool, friendly staff

Loud noise till 11.30 pm

Pool looked good but was busy on the evening.

There was an outdoor event on that went on till late with loud music and the rooms were not soundproof, which made it impossible to sleep. No mention of the event until after check in and payment.

At check in the staff was not cooperative. Hotel is rundown They had a sofa bed in the room but were asking for additional charges to open it. There was a lizzard in the room. Breakfast was worst than expected. Cold food stale food coffee and tea were cold. Worst stay in colombo

We checked in at nearly midnight. We were all very exhausted and were looking forward to a good sleep. However, the air conditioner wasn’t working - the room was super super hot. The light at the dressing table wasn’t working. We were really disappointed- we booked the hotel because of the good reviews we read….. No lift so if you can’t walk up the stairs, request for a room downstairs.

Although very close to airport not close to anything else. When we arrived a festival was taking place in the gardens. Very noisy and we wasn’t told it would be on

No lift. Dated. Right next to a very busy main road

The hotel is really modern and staff is super friendly and forthcoming. We got offered packed breakfast, since we had to leave early for the flight. There was a wedding taking place with loud music, but it stopped at around 22:30, and then we had a quiet night. Dinner was absolutely amazing (can really recommend the Amora dish platter!) and at low cost. We didn't take the airport shuttle however, since 20$ is a multiple of the Uber. For the rest we can absolutely recommend this hotel, especially as an airport hotel!

The price of the airport shuttle.

I booked a room for a leisure stay with my partner, and initially, everything was excellent especially the reception experience. The staff at the front desk were incredibly polite, welcoming, and friendly, which made a great first impression

Upon entering our room, we noticed an office gathering taking place near the pool area, complete with a DJ and karaoke. The noise was so loud that it made our stay unpleasant. To make matters worse, the Wi-Fi was extremely slow, so we tried using mobile data instead. Unfortunately, the reception in Room 726 was very weak, leaving us with no other options. Additionally, the hot water in the shower took a long time to start, and after a while, it stopped working entirely forcing me to take a cold shower. Another disappointment was the absence of a bathtub, which was listed as an amenity in the booking but was not available in our room. Lastly, the staff’s behavior was unprofessional at times. Instead of greeting guests politely, they would stare while passing through common areas, making us feel very uncomfortable. Due to these issues, we decided to check out on the same day.

The location description is totally off, took me 10 min drive to get here. Lousy

The hotel is clean but lots of mosquitoes in my room at night.

It’s hidden away, you can’t really walk anywhere for food etc, you need Uber a taxi.

Close to the airport.

Not much of a of varieties in the breakfast buffet.

I had read some not so great reviews before leaving however I found Amora Lagoon a lovely hotel. It is a hotel in another country so things aren’t always going to be exactly what you expect from a local hotel however I found it quite pleasant. The staff were friendly and helpful, the pool was clean and beautiful, the room clean and comfortable with air conditioning and only a few minutes drive to the airport. The shower pressure in two of the three rooms we stayed in was not fantastic but again this is common overseas. I wouldn’t want to stay in a room right near a function but other than that… a great place to stay. We stayed three separate nights.

A lovely hotel!

A loely hotel!

Far from the airport,isn’t four minutes walk from the airport Only accessible by taxi and cost per one way taxi 10$, So please correct the wrong info about the distance. I would prefer to stay in a hotel closer to the airport for 20$,intsted 70$ for this one

My favorite parts were how welcoming the employees were, how big the swimming pool is, and how good the rooms were.

Checkin was smooth. Nice touch of having a little drink on arrival. Cases were taken to our room, although given the hotel wasn't busy, we were situated in the very far room. there was some noise from people moving furniture around above. The bed was nice and big, as was the room. The mattress could have been a little more comfortable. The pool was great. They brought towels an a sun shade. The restaurant was good. Checkout was smooth. Overall a nice stay. Rooms a bit dated though. and some things didn't work (buttons and sockets beside the bed).

Checked in for some sleep before a late-night departure. Unfortunately they were hosting a wedding with music so loud the windows and cutlery were vibrating. Left early in search if somewhere more quiet (like perhaps next to the runway). Duty manager promised a refund, which has never arrived.

The stay was excellent....room was very clean and it was filled with all amenities. And the staff was really helpful and friendly

Close to the hotel

Rooms were tired, and didn’t feel as clean as I would expect. Check-in was disorganised - the reception seemed more interested in having a chat with our driver than processing us. Breakfast was poor. Cold, congealed, served in a soulless room, terrible instant coffee.

Nice hotel and grounds, very friendly staff and suitably priced for airport stop over for an early morning flight. Rooms are clean but dated, WiFi is adequate. Restaurant & bar very good and food excellent. Only a short 10-15 min trip to airport, maybe consider booking an Uber ( available in 15min @ 04:00) they are readily available and a third the cost of hotel transfer and won’t be 15 mins late.

Great hotel but not at airport

Pleasant surroundings with a great restaurant.

Great hotel But is not at the airport. Is 15 min drive.

Enjoyed staying, the pool, and garden. Late checkout was at a fair price. Will be happy to stay again.

I stayed at Amora lagoon hotel for 4 nights in a quite spacious double room with good aircon. The room was very clean. The best thing about Amora lagoon hotel is their staff. They are so friendly and helpful and efficient. I would definitely recommend this hotel especially if you have business to attend to in the Katunayaka and surrounding areas.

Great hotel, with wonderful service on a beautiful beach. Who could ask for more? Scuba diving was also great.

We arrived very early in the morning, so the hotel was great because it is close to the airport. The staff are very helpful and friendly. the room was very clean.

At night, the light went on by itself.

Staff behavior was good...location very close to airport...view of lagoon is good...rooms clean .

Pool was closed for cleaning and it wasn't pre informed...limited option in buffet breakfast especially for vegetarian...

Staff helpfull and fast

We got the most fare room, in More the hotel was empty !, we don't understand why we need to walk so fare. We never asked for a quite room during the booking. Our room was with cery heavy cigarettes smell !!! Not easy to sleep with that smell.

I got there late after noon and was able to have a meal from the restaurant prepared which was delicious !The bathroom needed painting and the mattress on bed was not comfortable. Also kettle was broken. Otherwise room was very nice and clean and the staff were just wonderful!

The bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was fine. Internet was fine. Short ride to airport. Loved the shower! The architecture of the buildings is modern and enjoyable.

Upon arrival, there was an outdoor party going on. (Congrats to them!) The music was so very loud that I could not even communicate with the front desk, face to face. The swimming pool was unavailable as it is right next to the front desk and the party was right there as well. So my relaxing afternoon following a long drive from Trincomalee? Gone. The party did end a few hours later. I decided to order room service. No menu in room. In fact, no literature in the room at all. I went to ask the front desk for a menu. No such thing! You must walk to the bar, use the menu at the bar, and only then will the food be brought to your room. THAT IS NOT ROOM SERVICE. Getting super picky - no door handle on balcony door. - went out to sit and when time to go back in, I had to dig in the frame with my fingers to open the door. Airport shuttle was easy but double the price of what Booking.com offered. In fairness, hoping for a relaxing day after car ride, with long flights ahead of me, was a disaster as soon as I arrived. The party going on put me in a sour mood that was aggravated by the little things that kept adding up.

The food was excellent and so was the service. Mihiranga Dilshan was very friendly and helpful. We recommend this place. The food was good quality, the fruit drinks were fresh and sweet. The chicken with rosemary was delicious! The see food was very good as well.

Helpful staff, easy check in , large clean room.

As it is near the airport, you could constantly hear aircraft's fly over. Ear plugs would easily fix this issue. It is worth noting that the aircraft flying over did not stop us from having a good night's sleep. The highway is rightght beside the hotel as well.

Very Friendly Staff and Flexible service. Very Tidy. The rooms were spacious and spotless,.The staff were attentive and went out of their way to ensure that we were comfortable. Excellent location, central and well connected with tram/metro. Staff was welcoming,

Close to airport

Shower was terrible and dripping water rather than flowing
