Crazy $300 LUXURY Hotel in Colombo, Sri Lanka 🇱🇰

[@Eagleeye644]

It's so nice to see you guys enjoying the great things in Sri Lanka. Shangri-La Colombo seems to be of top quality and that kind of luxuries are well worth for $300 pn, including a complimentary breakfast, compared to top end hotels in other countries. Thanks for promoting positives in that BEAUTIFUL place, the real paradise island, unfortunately way too underrated. Take care and enjoy 🎉😊

[@dunneytravels]

Thanks so much, this place was incredible value for money compared to in other parts of the world. Thanks for watching :)

[@nelunikakewshi1406]

if you dont know this hotel was boomed back then but they re constructed it

[@dunneytravels]

Yes we knew that. It's so sad. Hopefully we don't ever see anything like that again

[@SucharithThewnal-f5r]

Very nice🎉

[@SatyajitChaudhari]

My dad is from srilanka but i never been to SL i can't wait to visit one day mate 😊

[@dunneytravels]

Beautiful country 🙌🏼

[@ImLucyguesswhereiamfrom]

Love this video ❤

[@Damith_Hasantha]

Oh man. Yeah the view is great no doubts. But I just thought that the room would be bigger. Looks compact as well not even a balcony though. At least It's worth for $300 if it's an all inclusive package. Not a complain but in my view, little bit more deserve for $300. Nice vlog anyway. I don't know if you are already in LK. If you are then just try Hotel RIU.

[@dunneytravels]

Yes I must agree with you there, it was a big shame not to have a balcony!

[@timetoreason7090]

The land what you see from your window is called The Port City, fully reclaimed land from the sea. Yes funded by the Chinese, and sadly all the Chinese investments in SL and other third world nations are very controversial. Same goes to the new airport built inside a world renowned birds sanctuary, next to the Yala National Park where you visited. The deep south was huge jungle reserved as national parks. A sea port too was built in the national forest where many large herds of elephants used to roam, now they have lost their habitat. All that is happening in that very small island. Nevertheless it is their business to sort it out. Happy traveling and thanks for giving us a glimpses of Sri Lanka. Waiting for the next one. By the way after this I have to watch Beth's video as it is showing up on the list. Cheers!

[@dunneytravels]

Thanks very much for the information, that's very helpful :)

[@sarangawalimuni4955]

A mooncake is a Chinese bakery product traditionally eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival FYI Shangri-La is a Hong Kong Hotel chain

[@dunneytravels]

Thanks very much for the info :)

[@hi.t8528]

That building site is the port city of Colombo (to be built)

[@dunneytravels]

Thankyou :)

[@C424c424]

Wonderful video really we are enjoyed your video ..❤❤❤🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰

[@dunneytravels]

Thankyou so much :) ❤🇱🇰

[@timetoreason7090]

Moon cakes for Mid Autumn Festival aka Moon Cake Festival, one of very important festivals to Chinese. By the way I noticed you get level 13 in elevators in SL, not in the US as it is superstitious, seems to be not so superstitious in SL. Sorry I love all travels where you mingle with the locals, down trodden people, and staying with them. This is a bit oddity for me, nevertheless I liked it, everyone has his/her own taste/s. Baked beans on toast, tea and biscuits, cakes, obviously you both English. Take care!

[@dunneytravels]

Ahhh that makes sense, thanks very much for the information :) Yes, we much prefer the local and authentic side of travels, but whilst we were in Colombo we wanted to just get an idea of what luxury is like here! After this one night stay we went straight back into our normal routine though haha

[@betsythomps]

I want to go back!!!

[@dunneytravels]

Same :(

[@sheron281]

Hi. Really beautiful vlog. Enjoying your Srilanka series. Im new to your channel. Can i ask you something. Can you please move your camera slowly so that it is not difficult fir the viewer’s eye. Sometimes you may be doing it unintentionally, but i feel if you get it right your videos will be so great. Thank you very much for taking time vlog and share your experience.

Hello, That is a lovely luxury hotel in Colombo for you to be with all the facilities. You can choose your favourite kind of foods. Tourists are mostly staying in this hotel overviewing the sea and Gall Face beach in Colombo

[@MarilynDunne]

Love you both missing you watching you both every day xx xx

[@dunneytravels]

Thankyou xxxxx

[@suzettefernando8443]

Thank you for this video. Got to see a little bit of Shangri-la. But I guess they did not want to show much. Just a little feed back. The editing of the video can improve. Too many abrupt cuts and starts. Am sure they are going to be wonderful in the future. All the best you two. Thank you again.

[@dunneytravels]

Thanks so much for watching and commenting :) 🇱🇰

[@TheTorbinator1]

Beth is by far o good for you!! The way you treat her comes across in ya videos. shame on you

[@susam4991]

Your channel name is not easy2 find. I only can see you when u post a new video You should have an easier name for ppl to find n subscribe.

[@timetoreason7090]

Yes it is true. YT does not give the link straight, shows up others with similar names

[@susam4991]

@timetoreason7090 yes that's exactly what's happening. As sometimes we watch ur vloggs on TV n I search n can't find u and end up watching some other

[@charlesjay8818]

Prices are normal for a 5 star hotel. 4500rs which is $14 for a breakfast is great value for money, same breakfast at the same hotel in Paris London Barcelona will be $30-40. A sandwich in Borough market is £8-12 Your budget travellers, which is fine but maybe your not the best people to review a 5 star hotel if your gonna say expensive to everything. But nice video

[@betsythomps]

The aim of the video is to show the 'luxury' side of travelling Sri Lanka. Compared to local prices, this is expensive but very reasonable for 5* hotel of course

[@sallysloan9065]

Why is everything incredible and insane … or super excited .. think abit naive for travel bloggers but hopefully he will improve

[@dunneytravels]

I’m super excited you decided to comment, incredible! 😊

[@sallysloan9065]

@@dunneytravelsinsane comment ..make sure you check out the walls in the next room you stay on ….when the Sri Lankan rupee was strong against the pound the menu prices were very good value but even now it’s still good value the country is dealing with economic crisis and food prices etc have had to increase and same with alcohol government increased prices recently I live in Sri Lanka and have been coming to Sri Lankan previously for 11 years and watched a lot of bloggers doing the same as you …I’ve watched a few of your videos and everything can’t be insane and incredible all of the time just a comment
