📍 100, 11 Porutota Rd, Daluwakotuwa, Negombo

Hotel J Negombo
8.8 (54 reviews)

Hotel J Negombo ★★★

📍 331 Lewis Pl, Negombo

"We initially booked for one day, but loved the hotel so much that we extended our stay. Everything was excellent – from the reception and check-in to the pool, beach access, and breakfast. Breakfast had a good variety and was served quickly. There are even squirrels hopping around the hotel! The pool is warm and convenient. There are sun loungers around the pool, and the sun shines directly overhead, perfect for tanning. Beautiful sunsets, and a beach nearby with loungers you can use if you order from the cafe, where you can relax and swim. It's close to the airport, making it ideal for a rest before departure or after arrival. The sea in Negombo was the warmest we experienced during our 3-week stay in Sri Lanka."

Jetwing Lagoon Wellness, A Luxury Reserve - Adults Only
9.2 (71 reviews)

Jetwing Lagoon Wellness, A Luxury Reserve - Adults Only ★★★★★

📍 Pamunugama Rd, Negombo

"Jetwing Lagoon, a piece of amber left behind by Bawa. A half-hour drive away from the hustle and bustle of the airport, and you're plunged into the tropical narrative of this architectural poet. Bawa uses light and shadow as his brush, writing a Sri Lankan-style tranquility on the shores of the lagoon—the roughness of concrete embraces the swaying palm trees, the corridors are like time tunnels, leading you into a colonial dream of the last century. The guest rooms are truly a footnote to Southeast Asia: rattan, teak, and lazy-turning ceiling fans fulfill all your fantasies about south of the equator. As for cleanliness, it's merely a minor flaw; who cares before the divine artistry of Bawa's architecture? Open the window and you're greeted by the symphony of blue and green of the lagoon; egrets are frequent visitors at dawn and dusk; the scenery here heals everything. Choosing this place is essentially about engaging in a dialogue with the master."

Villa Dominikku Hotels in Negombo

Villa Dominikku

"The villa had arranged our airport transfer with Stefan which was very efficient and easy. We had a lovely room bright and airy room which was immaculate and the en-suite was spacious and modern. Air con was really good and kept us cool during the night. We had a huge breakfast with eggs sausage and tomatoes as well as traditional Sri Lankan dishes. Dulshan also arranged his driver to take us to our next hotel in Sigirya and on the way we stopped at the temple at Dambulla as well as the supermarket to collect supplies. Stefan was a very careful and steady driver and it was a perfect journey. Dulshan and his wife were the perfect hosts. This is a gem of a place to stay with everything you need. An oasis of calm in busy Negombo Thank you for a wonderful stay we will be back."

For breakfast we had eggs on toast, marmalade and peanut butter for vegan, coffee, tea and juice provided. Our favourite part was the pool!! Nice way to relax after a day exploring. We recommend our stay here!"

Tropical Terrace Negombo Hotels in Negombo

Tropical Terrace Negombo

"Location: Easy to find, navigation was accurate. Service: Family-run guesthouse. The owner is American and kindly moved our car to make room for us, worried we wouldn't be able to park. Facilities: Swimming pool, the kids played there for a while. Room: There was a drying rack! We washed several days' worth of clothes. Meals: This was our second-to-last night in Sri Lanka. We left early the next morning to return the car, so we didn't order breakfast. Two shortcomings: The blankets didn't have covers, leading to reasonable suspicion that they hadn't been changed. In short, my usually thick-skinned companion complained of intense itching, and even someone from northern China who can go two days without changing clothes insisted on changing out of their T-shirt after getting up. The kids, even in short sleeves, scratched themselves until they were red. I didn't feel itchy at all while wearing long sleeves and pants. The price of 400 was inflated."

Hotel Sico Hotels in Negombo

Hotel Sico

"Me and my friend had gone for a 15 day visit to sri lanka in the month of Dec and every hotel we stayed we enjoyed their facilities and breakfast.. we stayed in hotel sico on 31st Dec for a a night.. we were welcomed and we loved the hotel room . Beautiful place and they even arranged for a router in our room as their wifi was not working. We paid 4000/- sri lankan currency for 2 people for breakfast. We had a flight to catch on 1st Jan and the breakfast arranged for us right from the start was horrible. I asked for black coffee and literally the coffee and water looked separate. Asked for sri lankan omelette which supposed to have chillies and tomatoes. I got plain omelette and when I asked him to make another one with chillies and tomatoes, the waiter got it a plate with just cut chillies and tomatoes. I don't think the waiter understood anything what we were requesting. Since we were hungry we were eating whatever they were giving us. The bread was cold and not toasted. What shocked us was when my friend asked for a vegetable sandwich and she bit into it and there was a small toothpick which was holding the sandwich together and it hurt her so much. But they didn't care. When we asked for refund, they kept saying that we ate the breakfast , so they can't give. Such a disappointment to end the trip with.."

Hotel Shanelo Hotels in Negombo

Hotel Shanelo

"Perfect location yet peaceful! Very well-maintained rooms with a lovely balcony and quiet air conditioning. The property is exceptionally well-kept, as is immediately apparent from the garden. It's not far from the beach, and our favorite restaurants are right next door. The grounds are also gated, providing a sense of security."

Jetwing Ayurveda Pavilions Hotels in Negombo

"We arrived at the hotel around 1:30 in the morning — exhausted, but not without having planned ahead. We had already informed the reservation team about our late check-in at the time of booking, so we expected things to be in order. They were not. When we walked into our room, it was clear that it hadn't been properly prepared. There was no toothpaste, no toothbrush, and the television was switched on, yet the remote was nowhere to be found. But it was the middle of the night, and we were running empty. So we simply took a shower and collapsed into bed, choosing to deal with it all in the morning. The next day, we headed down for breakfast, and to be fair, the food was genuinely good. However, I had to rush back to the room for a meeting, so I asked my wife to bring my meal up. She kindly spoke with the restaurant staff and requested that our selected dishes be sent to the room. To our surprise, they refused, saying they couldn't bring some of the items upstairs. My wife, already a bit worn out from the night before, was understandably upset. Frustrated, she walked away. Somehow, after all of that, they ended up bringing everything to the room anyway. We have stayed at nearly every Jetwing property across the island, and this has been, by far, the most disappointing experience we have ever had."

"The staff made me feel so welcome and nothing was too much - even accommodating my dietary requirements as much as possible. They really helped make my travel easy and comfortable. The pool area is lovely and relaxing, rooms are basic, but clean and it’s ideal for the airport or as place to stay before onward travel :) there’s also a rooftop bar for sunset!"

Bohemian Nest ★★★★
"Our stay at Bohemian Nest was nice. The room is very spacious and tidy. The best was very large. The bathroom is nice and tidy. Breakfast was good and so was the pool. The location is near the airport so it is perfect for a stay before or after a flight. There is not much in terms of shopping or food near the hotel but it is easy to get food delivered. The staff were very nice and helpful."

Jetwing Lagoon Wellness, A Luxury Reserve - Adults Only ★★★★★
"The hotel boasts beautiful scenery, situated by both the lake and the sea. It features two swimming pools, the indoor pool being an exceptionally long 100 meters, while the seaside pool offers the soothing sound of lapping waves. The staff are warm and attentive, and the snacks at reception are delicious. The rooms are half indoors and half connected to nature, offering spacious and comfortable accommodations. Located near the airport, planes occasionally fly overhead, but the noise is not noticeable. Guests wake up to birdsong and the sounds of various small animals. The breakfast selection is quite extensive, and the restaurant has a great location with lake views through a beautiful large tree, a popular spot for taking photos."
