    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 🎉😊

    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
      @dunneytravels  ปีที่แล้ว

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

    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!

    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  ปีที่แล้ว

      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

    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

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

    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.

      $300 for us is also very expensive, we could not afford it really.

      Sri Lankan American here. We paid $133 at the Cinnamon Grand.Their breakfast is great and it's included in the price. We spent 4 nights there in 2019.

  • @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
      @betsythomps ปีที่แล้ว

      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
