The Steuart by Citrus

They have a great bar and restaurant with very reasonable prices. The bar staff were excellent and always had your next drink ready. Room was big and spacious without much outside noise.

I stayed in this hotel for about 4 days. Liked · The hotel was generally in good condition and the room was wonderful. • There were two beds adjoined. One bed the mattress was very comfortable, the other was sagging. The pillows were wonderful and the right firmness and softness. The comforter was cozy and comfortable. • AC was powerful and worked very well throughout • Lighting was great and plugs were really plentiful and thoughtfully placed. • Shower/Bathroom was fantastic and generous. It was clean overall and the amenities were wonderful, i.e. Shampoo and Body wash though I used my own. • Breakfast was good and had nice choices both Sri Lankan and European. • The restaurant staff were very friendly and very helpful throughout. When help and service was needed they were instant. • The room had a refrigerator, a wonderful safe, iron, ironing board, a table, a wonderful new tv, side lamps, tea/coffee maker, and hangers in the 3 cupboards, 2 nice lounging chairs with a table • The reception staff were very polite, respectful, courteous, and helpful. They have a very thoughtful guest policy which was very much appreciated. • The Housekeeping staff were really wonderful and provided amenities when needed within minutes.

We had to go to Colombo to get a driving permit from Ceylon AA and pick up our etickets to Polonnaruwa. I wasn't looking forward to being in a busy city but read the Rough guide for Fort area . Loved the Hotel right next to the converted little Dutch hospital, with its eateries. Our room was lovely and big, clean and welcoming after the heat of the day. Staff were cheerful and helpful. Especially liked the friendly breakfast staff. Loved the breakfast, as a vegetarian and lover of Sri Lankan food, so much to eat, buffloe kurd, fresh mango, pineapple and melon, cakes, breads and the delicate spiced Sri Lankan Omlette. As well as a hot buffet which included local hopper dishes on both days we stayed. Easy walking distance to the Galle Green, and the lovely sea breeze as the sun went down. Wonderful first day walking back from the station we dropped down to the canal/ ganga and a king Fisher landed on the wall next to us. We used the water ways to link to the Ceylon AA office and to take us down towards Galle Green.
