The room was clean and comfortable, if generic; the large lobby/lounge and adjacent restaurants were open and comfortable, if a bit gaudy for my taste, and I didn’t particularly care for any of the live (lounge) music I heard, though the musicians were good. I ate at the Chinese restaurant Stix (delicious, expensive) and the California Grill (delicious, very expensive). Breakfast buffet was good (and free). There are lots of on-site services, at least three large restaurants, two bars and a jazz club, and I think a night club.
I heard there are few American tourists these days, and I was there through an upscale travel agency, both of which might have something to do with my generally positive experience of the place.

 Galadari Hotel by the World
Trade Center, Colombo by trisanna
We traveled through Sri Lanka on a tour-staying here our last night. We asked for a non smoking room, but the reception staff said only deluxe rooms have that option. I asked how much it would cost to upgrade and the hotel staff couldn't answer my question. They seemed preoccupied with something, even though they weren't busy. Asking for a quiet room provided them with lot of confusion. Since we were in a package, we were given the cheapest room. On the second floor and right next to the crew lounge for Qatar airlines. Luckily, the airline staff was quite quiet, so it wasn't a problem. The bedroom was fine, but the bathroom looked like it hadn't been renovated in decades.
There are a few restaurants in this hotel. There are Middle eastern, Chinese/Japanese and a cafe. There are a few bars. One in the lobby, jazz bar and a place called margaritas or something like that.
Best to get a room facing the ocean or ocean and old parliament building.
