I recently hosted a birthday party at the Tea Lounge with some close friends & family. Mr Milan was there to oversee everything and ensured that it ran smoothly. We had High Tea, and different varieties of bites were offered on platters. The organization was top-notch. I highly recommend this place.

Truly a five star hotel! The service is amazing - every staff member is unfailingly polite and focused on your comfort. (I wish I could give 10 stars for service!) All the facilities are beautiful, well-organized, and sparkling clean. The restaurants feature all kinds of food to please every palate. (Don't miss Lagoon tho!) And the people-watching is fantastic: During our ten-day stay, the CG hosted at least six weddings. One day even saw the President of Sri Lanka giving a press conference! Cannot recommend highly enough - for business or pleasure.
