Publika Shopping Mall

i’ve been to 5 continents, 60 countries, over 100 cities, this review is essentially from a seasoned traveller. first of, the location is just about 15 minutes from the intl airport. easily accessible by uber from the airport, the hotel feels like a villa, where the hotel staff are also the property’s hosts. i’m leaving this review to personally commend that out of my many stays, this may be the greatest hotel stay i’ve ever had in all my travels. a lot of people write this off as a transit hotel and it can be, whereas me and my team (10 adults, 5 rooms) chose this hotel to stay in for 6 days 5 nights. the amenities, the room, basic, clean, modern, gets you where you need to go in terms of good rest, a hot shower, a nice swimming pool to take a dip in after a hot day travelling. the hotel feels very much like a home or a private villa. what set this stay apart is actually THE STAFF. our host, ran, and his assistants, even the cleaning lady are the NICEST and kindest people we’ve met and they’re the reason we’ll always remember our time in colombo and sri lanka. excellent hosts, wonderful ambassadors to a first timer in their country. the hotel stay was just wonderful as it was relaxing and they treated us like family guests. wish i can give a higher grade than 5 stars. travellers, don’t hesitate staying here, they treat travellers and guests sooooo well. 5 stars. 100 out of 100. A+++! highly recommended! we miss ya brother ran!

Amazing location, very friendly and responsive people. Close to transport links and the vibrant Bukit bintang area. Definitely going back
