Good location where 1 min walking distance from the beach, with a lot of restaurant nearby. Nice and helpful manager, who speaks very good English and gave very helpful advise. Clean and big room, average facility. Hot water is not always be available, but it is not a problem when I traveling in this tropical country.

The rooms are huge, the beds are comfy. There were a few small problems that could have been fixed easily but I arrived exhausted at midnight and couldn't find the energy to walk down two flights of stairs to wake up the owners. The AC didn't work hardly at all and so the room was hot hot hot. I paid... More

I really enjoyed my stay at MGH! The location was quite nice, with a lot of restaurants nearby, and a short walk down a path to the beach. The rooms are very clean, and quiet (aside from some inevitable traffic noise.) we spent the first few nights in a fan room, then decided to move to AC for our last... More

I stayed at this guest house for a couple of days upon arrival in Sri Lanka, in order to avoid the hustle and bustle of the city. It proved to be a very good decision, as Negombo is a laid-back town with a lovely beach. I stayed in one of the top rooms that had air conditioning and a lovely... More

We stayed here the day we arrived in Srilanka. We arrived late with prior booking. The bed was comfortable, room was clean and I liked having the balcony. Staff were friendly and helpful. The only negative comment I have is that the door to our room made a loud irritating noise every time we opened/closed the door.

We booked a room at Marine guesthouse for our last night before departure. In this context, the room was suitable. The bed was large and comfortable, the bathroom clean. The inexistant service and the location on the land side of the main road do not make it a friendly place to stay.

We stayed here for 2 nights at the start of our trip round Sri Lanka. Even though we arrived around 4 am the owner was there to show us to our room. Clean and spacious with a huge comfortable bed and a nice large communal area to relax. Good location near the beach and restaurants. Would happily stay here again.
