International Housekeeping Week, observed every September, is a global initiative that shines a light on the often-unsung heroes of hospitality. At Colombo Court Hotel & Spa, our housekeeping team plays a vital role in creating the serene, welcoming atmosphere that guests love and remember.

Our housekeeping artists turned towels into swans, Bears, and intricate displays, using nothing but fabric and imagination. This contest brought out their personality and passion, leaving us amazed at their creativity.
Speed & Efficiency Relay
A friendly yet competitive relay race through room setup tasks from arranging the bed to folding towels reminding us just how efficiently they work even under pressure.
