Find Hotels in Negombo, Sri Lanka

"New hotel only open for 4 months. Full occupancy during our stay. It was the best stay during our 13-day Sri Lanka Trip. Friendly and courteous staff from front desk to restaurants, housekeeping, etc. Stylish design with spacious room and comfy bed, plus all the necessary toiletries, except toothbrush. Buffet breakfast was delicious and wide spread from local cuisine to English Breakfast, etc. Infinity rooftop pool with beautiful sunset in the late afternoon facing the seafront. Within 15 mins walk to Main Street with many choices of eateries. A stone throw to Negombo Beach. Less than 30 mins to airport. Best place to stay upon arrival from the airport or on last day for easy airport transfer. The only setback is that the music at the poolside bar was a bit too loud for us as we prefer tranquil atmosphere with jazzy music. Highly recommended for any travellers to Negombo. "

"to throw my hat in the location debate -- i do not think it is a negative. it is only 10-15 minutes from the airport and feels very safe / secluded. soon all the drivers will know the location, but until then, see my travel tip! despite arriving after midnight, a group of employees greeted us with a cold towel and drink and carried our bags to our deluxe room. this room is a suite, and unless you need two queen beds, i'd say go with the premier room which shares the same great balcony view over the lagoon. our bed was decorated with intricate "towel sculptures" and flowers -- begged for a photo! staying one full day, we utilized the breakfast, wifi, and concierge services. staff was extremely friendly and bent over backwards to help us. our driver gave us a great tour of the negombo area and waited while we visited a spa, ate lunch, and shopped. back at the hotel, we asked if the chef could cook us local sri lankan food for dinner. we were not disappointed! they seated us at a private table in the tree house bar, and we enjoyed 6 spicy sri lankan delicacies -- our best meal of the trip! you can ask for it! the resort will soon have its spa open, and it seemed like most of the kinks from the "soft opening" had been worked out. it was nice to have brand new linens, towels, etc. the pool, airy modern design of the property, and grounds were magnificent. one area of improvement could be the weatherstripping on the door to the room, as it was not sufficient to keep bugs / ants out of the room. that said, we had minimal issues and frankly expect the occasional bug or mosquito in a tropical country. overall, we loved this resort and will return here again!"

"I have been to Sri Lanka Three times, I usually stay at the top hotels in Colombo during my stay. While searching for a hotel for this trip I found Suriya Resort online, I was quite unsure about the property as pictures posted online are usually deceptive, but I still wanted to give it a go because it looked beautiful in the pictures. When I arrived at the resort I was completely blown away by the grand structure and landscape of the resort. The quality of facilities and services available on the resort are unmatchable anywhere else in Sri Lanka. They allowed us early check-in and upgraded us to a suite. Miss Madhushani at the reception was really helpful and made sure our stay went smoothly till the check out. I highly recommend this Resort because of its scenic views and quality of service. It will definitely be my first pick when I visit Sri Lanka again. "

"We stayed @ Grandeza Hotel for one night and it was one of the best hotel experience in Sri Lanka. The whole crew was friendly and had a warm welcome. We went 1 hr before the usual check in time,but we were provided with the room quickly. The room was quite large and clean as well. And the view of lagoon from the room was marvellous. The food at Sea food restaurant was excellent and worth all the money. Mouth watering sea foods were available at affordable prices. And the food at Crave is also really nice, fresh and tasty. I would recommend this without any hesitation. Cheers!"

"Great hotel to finish our touring around Sri Lanka at. Negombo is a little more expensive than other areas we have traveled to, but good value meals can be had a few minutes walk from the hotel. Eating/drinking at the hotel is expensive, 300SLR for a bottle of water (the same can be bought across the road for 70SLR). But the hotels facilities are great, two (very clean) pools and direct views/access to the beach front. Breakfast is varied and plentiful. The room was clean, but the temperature of the hot water varied between tepid and hot, day depending. Definitely get a sea view room to make the most of the great sun sets! "

"We checked in late at night after arriving in Sri Lanka, the man who met us was so nice, as was the other man we saw the next day who gave us advice on what to do in Negombo and where to go in Sri Lanka. The rooms were very modern with a great view from the balcony across the canal to the church. Very happy with our stay, we will be booking again for the night before we leave! "

"This hotel was the best way to end our trip. My boyfriend and I wanted somewhere to stay that was close to the airport near Colombo, but quiet and away from everything. And this was the perfect fit. The room was clean, with cable television, comfortable beds, small nice and clean bathroom. It was perfect. The hotel's breakfast had plenty of options, but the best thing over all was the service and staff. The were very polite, accomodating and Always willing to help especially the front desk manager Kumudu J. He was such a delight. We wished we could have stayed an extra day in Sri Lanka just to rest up and stay at this hotel. As far as transportation goes, we ended up taking a tuk tuk to the airport. We loved taking tuk tuks everywhere (when in Sri Lanka do as the Sri Lankans do) which took about 35 minutes to get to the airport and it wasn't expensive. We made friends with a tuk tuk driver and he Always gave us local prices. If you were to take a bus to the airport you would first have to take a tuk tuk to the major road and then catch your bus, or just hire a taxi-driver. The hotel is not on a main road it s tucked away from all the hustle and bustle, which was a dream for us. Colombo's city center is also about 20 minutes away by bus. The hotel is on the beach, but if I had to say something negative it would only be that you can't go in the sea. You can sun bath, etc, but the beaches waves were to rough, but thats pretty much how it is everywhere along that side of the coast. But please if you are staying in the Colombo area go there. It's a fantastic hotel!"

"This place has it all, a pool, great breakfast, good bed and sheets, location is excellent. I wouldn't reconsider, just book it!"

"I booked this sensibly priced hotel in Negombo as it is close to the airport to finish our two week tour of Sri Lanka. We liked the Goldi Sands as it was clean, modern and airy in a nice setting on the beach with a pool. The staff were also pleasant and helpful. Only negative: Recommend you buy a can of mozzie spray for the room."

"Heritance is by far the best hotel in Negombo (in our opinion) The property allows easy access to the beach and has an awesome pool overlooking the beach. Negombo does not have much to do or see except the beautiful beach. It's a good thing therefore that we booked our stay at the Heritance coz it's right there. The staff were helpful and food was good. The mini bar was complimentary. All this made our stay at the Heritance amazing."
