Grand Samudra

We had a really lovely time here. Right from check-in, everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming. A big thank you to Fatima and Indunil at breakfast, and also to Dewmali and Chandana for taking such good care of us. They were so kind and attentive, and they really made us feel at home rather than just hotel guests. Thanks to the whole team for a great stay. We will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful stay at Taj Samudra Colombo. From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was warm and welcoming. A special thank you to Fatima and Indunil, who served us at breakfast, as well as Dewmali and Chandana, for their exceptional service and genuine care. They made us feel more like personal guests than hotel guests, which made our stay truly memorable. Thank you to the entire team for making our stay so enjoyable. We look forward to visiting again.

I had a lovely stay at Taj Samudra. It was my first business trip to Sri Lanka. Sagara Chief Concierge took wonderful care of me, helping with transport, shopping, currency and deliveries to the hotel. He was patient and kind. No request was too big or small. I look forward to my next trip!

We had a wonderful breakfast experience thanks to all team member but special thanks to Dilhar and Gayan. They took excellent care of us every morning and made us feel truly at home. Their warm hospitality, kindness, and polite, friendly manner made every breakfast enjoyable. They were always attentive, welcoming, and genuinely caring. Thank you, Dilhar and Gayan, for making our stay even more special with your outstanding service!

Driven by hunger and looking for a quick bite, we stopped by Navratna—and were blown away. Not only was the service incredibly fast, but we were treated to a truly sumptuous meal crafted by Chef Vipen, Chef Digambar, and Chef Pratibha. The Malai Kofta, Kulcha, Pudina Parantha, and Laccha Parantha were absolute perfection. The hospitality provided by Nuzaim and Dhilara was amazing, far exceeding the already high expectations we have for the Taj brand. A special shoutout to Nuzaim and Chef Vipen, who went completely above and beyond their duty to ensure we left happy and deeply satisfied.

I stayed at Taj Samudra for two days, but honestly, it felt too short. Taj never disappoints when it comes to hospitality, and this property is no exception. The warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail from the staff are truly second to none. A special appreciation goes to the reception team, who were exceptionally courteous, efficient, and welcoming throughout our stay. The hotel enjoys a prime location in the heart of Colombo, making it an excellent choice for both business and leisure travellers. It is conveniently located near major shopping destinations, including a large mall and the duty-free mall, making it easy to explore the city. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and well-appointed, adding to the overall experience. Another thoughtful touch is the complimentary luxury car service to and from the casino, which makes guests feel genuinely valued. The only area that could use some improvement is the breakfast buffet. While the spread is good, the restaurant feels congested considering the number of guests the hotel accommodates. Finding seating for larger groups of 7–10 people can be challenging, and the buffet service tends to be slower during peak hours. Overall, the positives far outweigh this minor inconvenience. If you’re planning to stay in Colombo, Taj Samudra is an excellent choice that offers comfort, convenience, and the signature Taj hospitality that keeps guests coming back.

It was amazing specially mr Anushka was helpful and he is very amazing really like it.

Absolutely stunning hotel, top quality service and delicious food. The breakfast buffet has so many options - western, Indian and Sri Lankan along with lots of pastries and very nice coffee. Oshan and Waranga were so attentive during our breakfast meals 😊

They went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable and memorable. Moreover, the food was sooo soo tastyyy andd i loved the flavors.

We had a wonderful stay at Taj Samudra. Our overall experience at check in, dining, travel desk, swimming pool was great. Staff was welcoming and attentive to our needs. We appreciate the prompt response from the front desk staff and hotel nurse when my husband got sick. We loved the food and service at the Ports of Call restaurant and special shout out to Dilhara who made us feel at home. Taj Samudra has definitely raised the bar of hospitality. This place has great ocean front views, and offers family friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend it.
