We walked in an apartment with dust and dirt on the floor, mould behind toilet door, mould on kitchen glass tray. They said this apartment was closed for some time. Housekeeping staff should be trained to check on details. Would not recommend for families who are particular about cleanliness. The management needs to take feedback seriously without giving excuses for lapses.

There is a 24 hour front desk service, so Expedia needs to update their information to indicate there is a 24 hour front desk

Pleasant surprise

Very clean, well maintained apartment block. I got a three roomed apartment and they locked up two rooms as I booked only a room. I was free to use the rest of the facilities of the apartment, which include a spacious well furnished lounge/dining room, well equiped large separate kitchen and a balcony. The room had a large exceptionally clean ensuite. They provide large bath towels and all other toiletries. The lounge and bedrooms are air-conditioned and also has fans. They also provide fast wifi, TV and phone. You pay extra for a buffet breakfast and the building also has a large swimming pool on the topmost floor with a good view of the sea and the busy Colombo harbour. The staff are friendly and helpful. This facility is value for money and I ended up staying three nights there. I will be booking the same hotel in future visits to Colombo. The apartments are quite suitable for a family or group bookings. I will recommend this hotel to my friends.

The staffs are unethical and try to give false information when they have problems with the rooms. Poorly maintained and always ends up with some sort of problems.

When booked it stated that the rooms will come with a kitchen and cooking amenities but didn't find any. The water coolant machine wasn't working, complained about this from day 1 but issue was not sorted. The receptionist wasn't to happy that I had asked for the deposit back when leaving.

Would not stay again

I have stayed at the Supun Residence a number times of before and have enjoyed my previous stays there, however this has been the total opposite. From the moment we arrived at the hotel we wanted to take a shower after our long flight, but this was not possible as there were no hair dryers in the room. We specifically mentioned this in our hotel request, but clearly wasn't followed through.

Being a self catering apartment we expected to there to be a working fridge and ample pots & pans for cooking. However the fridge would constantly freeze items rather than cool them, despite maintenance being called a number of times to fix this. There were also no pots & pans to cook with. The room clearly was not ready before we checked in.

The apartments are large, and great when traveling in a group. Unfortunately, the entire apartment had a mite problem, and we had to switch rooms. We even switched apartments, and still had the same issue. The staff was very accommodating considering the issues, but I would recommend not to bring ANY type of food into these rooms. Even packaged food attracted these little creatures. They could do a better job at spraying and cleaning the apartments.

Nice place to return to after a long day out.

Check in/Check out was easy and painless. Staff courteous and helpful.The room, an apartment, was very nice. When we arrived there were one or two things that didnt work, the kettle, a light-bulb, etc but a simple call to reception and everything was put right - quickly and without fuss.

The rooftop pool is very nice but some of the small tiles surrounding the pool and on the pool floor have broken away creating sharp edges. We were glad we didn't have children with us. The rooftop pool does not have any shaded area and this meant we could not use it for long periods during the day.

The apartment was roomy and comfortable. The kitchen well appointed and more than adequate for a short or long stay. We only used it for refreshments and breakfast, taking advantage of Colombo's excellent choice of restaurants.

All in all, an excellent choice and I will stay at Supun Arcade Residency again.

Overall a good experience

Overall, we enjoyed our experience at this hotel. But, there were a few unpleasant parts. Be prepared to pay a deposit of $200.00 when you check in. We weren't ready for that and it did alter the amount of spending money we had for our trip. The housekeeping didn't clean our room during our visit which was only 2 days, but would have been nice to have the trash taken out and the dishes washed. The room was clean but I found the rat poison under the sink to be disturbing. The location was fantastic and the restaurant was also convenient.

Poor Management

We unfortunately had the electric go out 2 times while at the hotel. We were only staying for 2 nights and the second day/night we had the power go out in the room and we were told that we had to change rooms. They gave us a time frame of about an hour and we ended up waiting 2 hours with no electric, not air, not tv--nothing. And we had to call to ask them when they were sending someone....because even after 2 hours no one came to change our rooms and it was starting to get dark in the hotel. And it three kids we had to pack up all our bags just to move rooms for less than 5 hours, as we had to leave for the airport in the middle of the night. My husband asked the front desk if we could have free dinner or desert or something to compensate for the inconvenience. The manager basically said that by letting us change rooms they were doing us a huge favor, as they had to clean and change the linens. I was horrified to think that the manager actually expected that we would sit in the dark room until midnight when we left for the airport. Doing us a favor? Isn't in the responsibility of the hotel to ensure that the guests have lighting, electric, and safety. It was really rude and I think this hotel should not be ran as a hotel, but only a long term apartment. The manager does not have the capacity or training to deal with service oriented issues.

Great for a stopover in Colombo

This place had a basic kitchen, Semi-automatic washing machine & neat bedrooms. It served as a place to rest before we went out to tour the country. The front-desk lady Laxmi, was extremely helpful and had the finesse and charm that one would expect. She let us keep our luggage in storage for 3 days while we backpacked around. Reason the hotel service gets a 3-star rating: After a 26-hour journey, the evening staff informed us that he didn't have a booking for us! After much panic, he corrected himself however we needed to deposit 200$. When I refused, he said that he would retain my passport. I refused; which led him to say, \"I will let you have a room now however, my Manager will talk to you about this tomorrow\". This left us very uneasy. Luckily, we met Laxmi the next morning and were put at ease immediately. The maintenance of the hotel gets 3-star rating because: The apartment (403) that we were allotted after our 3-day break had no over-the-stove hood, the washing machine drained into the laundry room and was fixed after several attempts by the technician, there was mold in the master ensuite, there was no fabric covering the bare metal ironing board. We used the pool on the terrace every morning but I have to mention that many of the tiles are chipped around the periphery. It is not a luxury hotel and we definitely did not pay an exorbitant price to live there. It was practical for us (family of six) and we did not go there expecting anything special.

Stayed 21 days. Hotel on border of bambalipitiya & wellawatte and amenities including their market which was really useful. Apartment was well equipped incl tv, microwave, rice cooker, water cooler, fridge & gas hob. However only semi-automatic washing machine which resulted in losing several buttons from some clothes from the spinner. Staff were cordial but special mention for the lady at reception in the mornings who was particularly helpful and polite. However downsides include the wifi & housekeeping which we would request every 5 days. The lady who would sweep and mop would never clean the kitchen floor and left piles of dust she swept under furniture on some occasions and had kicked our shoes so she could sweep. If she had simply asked I would have gladly removed them. Bed changing was decent and plenty of linen provided. Swimming pool was pleasant. Definitely a good location and hotel facilities. Big downfall also is deposit of 200 US$ needed but takes 14 days to return which is never mentioned to you

It is more of a apartment rather than a hotel. There are couple of bedrooms depending upon which one you book. There is a nice kitchen with gas, cooking material etc. This hotel will give you large mineral water container so you don't have to worry about drinking water. I read about other comment about how noisy this apartment is but the truth is it is not that bad, there isn't any loud music going on, only sound is of vehicle as there is main road near by but if you are on higher floor it is not that bad. Only cons i found is that this hotel will charge you for Wifi and its too expensive, its about 4-8 usd per day depending upon the room you book.

Poor management

First impression was terrible. The security guard told us we would have to wait to check in because everyone was on lunch-it was 2pm!! This was after we had been travelling all day. What happened to a staggered lunch?? The bellboy walked straight past us and went outside so we struggled up to our room with our cases. Rooms were large and spacious but the beds were extremely hard as mentioned before. We went up to the pool the next day to find it closed due to maintenance! No mention of this when we checked in so we went to see the manager to explain that we were only there for one day and the kids had been looking forward to the pool. To be fair he did check and we were allowed to use it whilst the guy touched up the paint around the pool. If we hadn't spoken up we would probably have missed out. Its in a decent location,about 3/4 hr from the airport (only at night! Probably 1.5hrs during the day because of traffic). It's ok for a stay and there isn't many hotels with a pool. A better welcome and more communication from the management would have improved our stay - first impressions count for everything.

Our family arrived late after a long day of traveling, and although the hotel was fairly empty, we were placed in a room next to a wedding party that raged until sunrise. The hotel staff slept in the lobby and were unresponsive to numerous requests for a quiter room or to ask the party to quiet down. No one onsite could help me, and the manager who could only be contacted by phone was no help either. We got no sleep, and the pool was not in a usable condition, so we basically did not get anything we paid for.

Massive space

The average room is huge! 3 bedrooms 2 bathrooms. Much more than i needed. Sheets were clean. You could see some wear and tear on the walls...a few spots of chipped paint. Internet only in the lobby unless they have a modem to give you. They ran out while I was staying there, so that was a pain. The also ask for a deposit and had trouble recognizing that I had paid in full on the website. They eventually figured it out and did give the deposit back when I checked out. The hotel is actually called Supun and not Apart hotel, so be sure to tell that to the cab when you try to get there. The showers are scalding hot but only for about 5 min. after that they are barely warm.
