Excellent hotel, food very good, staff very friendly and very professional management. Rani was our first hotel after arrival, everything was arranged perfectly. Their driver picked us at the airport on time and they provided nice and perfectly clean room. Actually, we have scheduled a week tour around the island and finally we took it from the hotel as they... More

We arrived at the check in time and were welcomed with a welcome drink. We had to sit and wait in the extremely hot lobby. The staff was apologetic that the room was not ready. We got to our room and it was at least 40 degrees C. NOT OK. The workers were coming out of the room SWEATING. We... More

Not worth my time to review this one but I'm doing this in the interest of my fellow traveller compatriots :) Close to the aiport but then so are some other hotels. At the inexpensive price, I understand one is to expect very little of this hotel but I do expect the basics- Rooms are big but the bed/mattress was... More

The Rani Beach is located on polluted and dirty Negombo Beach. The only reason to stay is the proximity to the airport. Having stayed previously at the Paradise Beach Resort 100 meters down the beach, we had a good basis for comparison. The Rani is far inferior, despite its larger and better-equipped rooms. The Rani Beach has large, clean rooms,... More

Had a bad experience, having inquired properly from front office, especially about food choices. Room was supple, but the bed was uncomfy, as it was shorter than expected, causing neck problems. No 24hour room service, and full board customers will need to check carefully, what is on offer for them. Parking will be an issue if they are having a... More

I chose this hotel after having read the reviews on Tripadvisor. I stayed two nights before flying home on an early morning flight. It is ideally located for the airport just being 20 minutes away (subject to traffic). The Hotel were expecting us and check in was painless. The rooms were deluxe rooms with a sea view. Given the cost... More

I selected this hotel after reading its reviews on Trip Advisor. Hotel is situated on a good location in Negombo. It has a beach adjoining the hotel which although not very clean like Goa or Thailand, but still worth a morning walk alongside it. Hotel rooms - big spacious rooms and clean bathrooms. Latch of the Bathroom door was broken... More

We stayed at the hotel for two weeks. It is great nice and clean and the staff is very friendly and accommodating. Large clean rooms with large balconies. Calm and quiet at night. We can highly recommend this hotel.

I stayed here for 2 nights and found the hotel simple but comfortable. Really what I had been looking for for some time in Negombo. It is by the beach, the rooms are clean and spacious and mine had large windows with a sea view. It doesn't have all the facilities of a big hotel - but then the price... More

We stayed there for the last day in Sri Lanka. This hotel is very standard beach hotel. Nothing special to mention, as it is just like a lot beach resorts. Positive side: rooms are clean and tidy, with the best facilities we have ever stayed in Sri Lanka. Standard Hotel Negative side: the beach is just so so: raw and... More
