The location of the hotel is great, right infront of the ocean. The staffs were very helpful. The restaurant food was delicious. The view of the ocean from the room was mind blowing.
Nothing I can think of.

Very Good
Staff are very professional and friendly, and location is great.
Hotel was worn down and aged, in and out.
Owners and Taj should support the hotel team with a proper do over, so occ stays up, rates go high, and Taj Samudra can thrive.
No money, no honey.

Although it was a short stay, we truly had a wonderful and memorable experience at Taj Samudra. Every staff member, from the front desk to housekeeping, is consistently friendly and helpful, making us feel genuinely welcomed. The senior staff members were highly professional and very friendly all around. The food is great and location is also excellent with easy access to Colombo seaside. We’re already looking forward to our next visit.
Nothing to mention.

The staff were attentive but not obsequious.
The room was a Taj Club room and it was the perfect size - big but not too big that you feel overwhelmed by the space.
Breakfast was delicious.
As the Taj Club rooms are non-smoking, while staying there some other guests in other rooms decided to smoke which did leave a rather unpleasant smell for a couple of days, but the property attended to the matter immediately and with their jasmine air purifier, the smell was gone.

Nice hotel, well situated.
The guys working at the gym and pool lurking around and looking women up and down when they enter and exit the pool.
Thank you for your information!
