Best Western Elyon recognised by Trip Advisor with Certificate of Excellence for 2016

Excellence in customer service and superior guest experience ratings resulted in Best Western Elyon Colombo securing the Trip Advisor Certificate of Excellence for 2016.

Awarded to establishments which are able to consistently score high positive traveller reviews during the year, the Certificate of Excellence is thereafter awarded to the top 10% of tourist attractions, restaurants, and accommodations listed on Trip Advisor.

During the year, Best Western was able to secure a minimum Trip Advisor rating of 4 out of 5 while rising to fifth position in the Trip Advisor Ranking among over 450 properties listed in Colombo; its highest position since the property first opened in July 2014.

Customer service continues to be a key priority for the hotel, with each member of the Best Western team being trained in the importance of giving every guest personalised and friendly service in order to achieve a consistent, high-quality guest experience.

Such an emphasis on quality service and affordable luxury has enabled Best Western to rapidly rise in prominence in the Sri Lankan City Hotel sector.


Best Western Elyon has regularly won recognition for its efforts, including the Trip Advisor Travellers’ Choice Award for 2015, the Booking.com Award of Excellence and more recently, with the Best Partnership Gold Circle Award from agoda.com.
