    convenient location
    unclean room
    poor service

    The location is convenient for exploring local attractions.

    Upon check-in, I found the room to be unclean with leftover food and hair visibly scattered around. The bathroom had a foul smell coming from a leaking pipe, and I had issues with the air conditioning on the second day. Despite multiple requests for assistance, it took too long for the staff to respond, which left me feeling quite frustrated during my stay.

    lively pub area
    bathroom cleanliness

    The lively pub area offered a delightful menu with an excellent selection, making my evenings enjoyable.

    The bathroom cleanliness could have been better, as there was an unpleasant odor that diminished the overall comfort.

    genuinely kind
    bathroom cleanliness

    Exceptional management at The Lion Pub & Hotel made my visit memorable. Manager Prashanth's attention to detail really stood out. The room, a Standard Double Room, offered a comfortable bed and tasteful design that created a welcoming atmosphere. I especially enjoyed the lively pub area with its delightful menu. The staff, genuinely kind and helpful, made me feel at home. there were a few drawbacks. No kettle was in the room, which was inconvenient. The absence of an AC remote made temperature control challenging. The bathroom needed more thorough cleaning as there was an unpleasant odor. Despite these issues, the great staff and enjoyable location made it worth my stay. I look forward to returning.

    pleasant stay with room for improvement

    The staff were exceptionally attentive and helpful, especially during late-night room service requests. I enjoyed the spacious standard double room with comfortable bedding, perfect for a good night's sleep. The city view from my room added a lovely touch to my experience.

    The bathroom cleanliness could have been better, as I noticed a slight odor.

    helpful staff

    Just a prime choice for a short stayover in Dehiwala-Mount Lavinia with exceptional value. The staff were super helpful, assisting with my luggage and making check-in a breeze. Bring your own toiletries as the provided options were limited.
