Excellent location
Posted 30 Aug 2017
Pros: Prime location on Galle Road
Cons: General decor of the rooms. Curtain hanging off, cupboard door loose
Location: Galle Face , Ministry of Crab, Fort Railway station, Crescat Mall, Liberty PLaza, Majestic City, House of Fashion, Odel Paradise Road
We have stayed in :Colombo on many occasions, but always in hotels. For a change we decided to book an apartment in the same area. The Colombo Residency or Crescat residency as its know is in a prime area of Colombo along the Galle Road. Situated next to the Cinnamon Grande Hotel it is within minutes of the Crescat Mall with its shopping and Food Hall situated on the Lower level. Here you can eat cheaply a variety of different foods Sri, Lankan, vegetarian(Indian) Mongolian, Thai and even pizza.
You are minutes away from Galle Face Hotel and Green, The Ministry of Crab is a 5minute tuk tuk ride away. Fort railway station and Pettah market. the opposite direction is Liberty Plaza, Majestic City , Odell, Paradise Road , House of Fashion.
There is a pool and Gym next door which you have access too. We were in a one bedroom apartment, the Décor was a bit 'tired' and was in need of updating but was spacious with a lounge and kitchenette, bedroom and bathroom. 24hr security.
In terms of location, it can't be .beaten, we would definitely stay here again, perhaps in a 2 bedroom apartment. 3 wheeler tuk tuk rides, make sure they have a meter and its on. Otherwise they can quote any price

Strategically located apartment
Posted 13 Aug 2016
Pros: Mostly the location - it is located closely to a mall and many upscale restaurants.
Cons: I would recommend thoroughly cleaning the living room and kitchen including the chairs and floors is essential to attract customers.
Location: From this location, it is a five-minute walk to the Galle Face Terrace.
The location of the apartment is great with easy access to many restaurants in the Cinnamon Grand. We have also appreciated the cleanliness of bedrooms and access to the swimming pool and gym facilities. The living room and kitchen require thorough cleaning, especially the couch.

One night stay in 3 bed apartment
Posted 19 Jul 2016 on Lastminute
Pros: Location. Air-conditioning. Master bedroom large.
Cons: Better signage to enter the hotel. Better communication by the staff. availability of Tea and coffee. Shower caddy to place toiletries. Safer lift.
Location: Close to Galleface.
Minimal information given about entry to Apartment. Nil signage. Parking in the basement of Angana Spa. No place to park and check-in. Car park swipe card not given which was difficult to get in and out of carpark entrance. There was a leak in the bathroom which was flooded overnight. Nil tea and coffee facilities available. Poor communication by staff. the Lift was dangerous. Closes half way through walking in.

Not really sea facing as they claimed while booking, but apart from that everything else was good.
