The property location, history, and fantastic staff is so good that I feel the owners are doing a disservice to themselves by not investing into maintaining their rooms and hotel a little more. The hotel has a fantastic beach and the views from the rooms are fantastic especially the sunset views. The breakfast and lunch buffet spreads were huge! I only wish they had more types of Dosa. They also have a nice museum tour which the breakfast host will be more than happy to take you on if you ask him.
However, the rooms need maintenance. Maybe replace the stained carpets with stone flooring or tile flooring, and the sofas need to be reupholstered. Also they need to seriously clean all that sticky dust on their telephone. And please oil the balcony door so it doesn't become tough to open for an old person.

Our beachfront room was fantastic! The room was spacious, well-maintained, and the direct access to the garden was a definite plus. The view of Mount Lavinia beach was quite good. We were very pleased with the food, which offered a great variety for both dinner and breakfast. The action kitchen was a definite highlight! This location is also a great spot for wedding, homecoming, or other occasion photos. The limited parking area is the only concern.

I highly recommend staying at this hotel! The service is exceptional, with attentive staff who go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant experience. The food is simply amazing, featuring a diverse menu that delights the palate. Whether you're enjoying breakfast, lunch, or dinner, each dish is beautifully prepared and bursting with flavor. If you're looking for a place that combines top-notch hospitality with outstanding cuisine, this hotel is a perfect choice!

The best feature of this hotel is its proximity to the beach. The private beach adjoining the hotel is pristine, clean and belongs to you, as many people are not aware of this.
The breakfast spread is also awesome, several Srilankan options along with continental spread was offered.
The rooms had some cracks in the floors.
Service was good

I had the pleasure of celebrating my wife’s birthday at Mount Lavinia Hotel, and it was an unforgettable experience. The hotel offers a perfect blend of colonial charm and modern luxury.
The atmosphere is peaceful and relaxing, making it ideal for special occasions. We also had the chance to explore the hotel’s Museum and take a tour of the famous Tunnel.
The staff was incredibly attentive and made our celebration even more special. Highly recommend this beautiful hotel for anyone looking to enjoy a slice of Sri Lanka's history and luxury.
