“Right on the beach”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012

person found this review helpful

Exit the hotel onto the beach and you could be any one of thousands of places all over the world. Exit onto the street and your are most certainly in Asia. Nice place for a one night chill out near to the airport but rather on the pricey side for a free range traveller - presume affordable if you are there on a package which almost everyone probably is. Very efficient friendly staff. Excellent food.

Room Tip: I think all rooms are beach facing. Pretty big hotel so can be well away from reception area for qui...

“Convenient to airport & probably best beach location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

We spoilt ourselves on this visit... It is so close to airport (for us as flights arrive and depart at horrible hours (Australia)). Very comfortable room (#102) ground floor within metres from pools, bar & restaurants and quiet! We were here 2 years ago as a convenient stopover to airport. This time decided to stay an extra day to enjoy the beach and food they had to offer... YUM... "Negombo Chicken Curry" with all the accompanying dishes.

We also managed to find our previous Driver whom now works for himself. If you have been in Sri Lanka you will understand how important it is to have a diligent and safe driver!

“Good hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2012

Hotel was good, rooms were big.
Be very careful which room you book and to which room they actually put you in.
We booked Deluxe room, overlooking sea. We arrived around midnight, and at check in they told us our room is not available, just from next morning. So, they meantime gave us another room - street view. And it was horrible! Filthy, old, full of mosquito and other bugs. Bathroom was so bad, I rather did not have a shower!
Next day, we had to force them to give us our room - we were able to move into it just around lunch time!
New room was great, clean, spacious, with big balcony.
Food was OK, beach was nice, pool was nice.
We enjoyed great private tour with Mr. Ranjit (ranjifernando@gmail.com). The Elephant Orphanage is a must, be aware of prices at the shops at the other tourist attractions (the shops near to the hotels were cheaper for many items).

Room Tip: Certainly Delux room, overlooking the sea!

“nice place”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2012

Good spacious room. Especially the ones with direct pool access are really good. NIce pools and beautiful beach. Decent food apart from the selection from the snack bar. The pizzas are terrible. And Negobo town is a surprisingly untouched piece of Sri Lanka that i worth a visit.

“Good Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 January 2012

We got booked here for one night via Srilankan Airlines. Very large and clean rooms. The breakfast buffet was excellent and the staff very friendly. The only thing is that they were doing maintenance work on the airconditioner but since the rooms were right smack in front of the beach it was ok since we enjoyed the cool sea breeze. Will definitely go back to the hotel. Kudos to the staff.
