Guest Reviews

• olivier (6/5): - Très accueillant bien entretenu autour de la piscine mais chambre très vieille sans Clim après vraiment pas cher !
• Omer (10/5): - Sehr gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis und super freundliches Personal, die einem jeden Wunsch erfüllen. Man kann vor Ort auch Touren buchen (mehrtägig oder Tagestrips). Ich kann jedem, der sich in Negombo aufhält, empfehlen hier unterzukommen.
• Jean (10/5): - Excellent accueil, conseils de voyages et booking de mon bus pour anuradhapura. Personnel et patron tres sympathique
• MISATo (4/5): - スタッフは親切です。海が近いです。部屋にエアコンがありません。暑くて眠れませんでした。蚊がたくさんいます。
• Jason (10/5): Great hotel and owner - 15 mins from airport and excellent location
• Patricia (4/5): - Juste moyen pour une nuit
• Lena (6/5): - Simple nice hotel, but the wifi was bad, very slow.
• Suvi (8/5): Siisti ja hyvä guest house - Yövyin 2 yötä deluxe huoneessa. Kylpyhuone oli moderni ja lämmintä vettä riitti. Ilmastointi toimi hyvin, mutta pääasiassa tuuletin riitti minulle. Lähellä rantaa, vieressä paljon pieniä ravintoloita. Varasin hotellin kautta myös lentokenttänoudon 16e. Hyvä muutaman yön reissuun Sri Lankalle tulon/lähdön yhteydessä.
• Jani (10/5): - Great location, very friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommended!
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Nice room and friendly staff. Reasonable price. It's a short walk to beach and there is a nice place next door to by food ( Food is really nice).
• Lena (8/5): - Hjælpsom vært, men meget påtrængende. Ingen varmt vand på badeværelset
• Verified traveler (10/5): Clean and comfortable hotel - good location even though not on the beach but walkable, hotel was kept clean and pleasant and owner of hotel can arrange tours at reasonable price
• Maya (8/5): Sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit - Sehr freundlicher und hilfsbereiter Chef und Personal. Preis Leistung der Unterkunft stimmt.
• Melody (8/5): This is a very nice guest house - This is a great location, right across from beach path and in the hub of shops and restaurants in Negombo. The manager was exceptional, going out of his way to find me a full service salon and everyone was welcoming and helpful
• Teresa (6/5): Für Zwischenstopp gut geeignet - Wir haben das Guesthouse für zwei Nächte gebucht, da wir mitten in der Nacht erst gelandet waren. Der abholservice funktionierte einwandfrei! Das Frühstück war ok, die Zimmer auch. Allerdings würden wir künftig die Klimaanlage nutzen, der Ventilator war nicht ausreichend.
• Michael (8/5): Relaxed place to stay, close to beach, restaurants - Friendly, clean, helpful, excellent breakfast. My room had its own balcony, a bit near the road, but I slept well. Very good value.
• Susie (8/5): Great position for the beach and restaurants. - For what we paid, we were delighted with the room, large bed with mosquito net, good sized bathroom and shower, lovely balcony with comfy chairs and a table. That made for a super place to have a sun downer before going out to eat. The beach being literally just over the road meant you could leave valuables in the room and go and swim and return for a shower.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Kata - Moyen mais ok pour prendre l'avion
• Verified traveler (8/5): お部屋とベランダが広めです - 価格の割に広めのお部屋とベランダです。ベランダからは海がちらっと見えます。 トイレも広めでゆったりしています。蚊よけの蚊帳も装備されています。蚊は居ないように思いました。 金庫っぽいものがありましたが使用しませんでした。クローゼットも大きいです。＊鍵は壊れてましたが。 窓が多いので、朝は明るく気持ちよかったです。 階段しかないので、荷物の移動は少し大変かもしれません。 隣のカフェの昼食が美味しかったです。
• Verified traveler (10/5): Exactly as described - Super quick check-in, big room (I stayed in #3, non a/c), comfy bed, nice bathroom and mosquito net (you need it!). There was a light damp smell in the air and we didn't have a TV like other people but we didn't need it. Cute sitting area in front of the room, quiet but central location, close to everything you need and to the airport. Wifi was strong in the public area but not in the room but this is mentioned in the hotel description and we didn't really need it anyway. Great value and I would stay there again
• Maureen (8/5): Good overall experience - Basic room but clean and comfortable. Perfect for a night in negombo!
• Manon (8/5): Pour le prix, c'est très bon. - J'ai été agréablement surprise de la qualité par rapport au prix. l'établissement est propre, les chambre et salle de bain son nickel. Nous avions un petit balcon donnant sur lewis place, très agréable le soir de s'y asseoir pour regarder le train train quotidien des gens.
• Verified traveler (8/5): 6 Jan 2016 - No complaints. Recommend. Excellent service
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Wir haben das Zimmer wegen der Nähe des Flughafens gebucht. Dafür war es perfekt. Sauberes Zimmer und Bad. Konnten ein wenig vorschlafen und um 1.30 nachts hat uns das vom Hotel organisierte Taxi für 2000 Rupies zum Flughafen gefahren.
• Tim (6/5): Easygoing place handy for airport - Arrived 11pm and gates were locked but someone quickly came to open them. No fuss checking in or checking out next day.
• Robyn (8/5): Nice hotel. - Really appreciated having a very early breakfast provided and being driven to Colombo to catch the 7am train. Travellers dont forget when staff go that extra mile.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Wir verbrachten im Juli 2 Nächte im Ocean View Guesthouse in einem der Zimmer im Einfahrtsbereich. Das Zimmer war relativ sauber (bis auf wenige Schimmelflecken) und überzeugte durch eine zweckmäßige Einrichtung und die tolle Terrasse. Das Personal war stets hilfsbereit. Großes Plus ist die Strandnähe (nur einmal über die Strasse). Besagte Strasse kann auch als Negativpunkt gewertet werden, da diese gut befahren ist. Das Frühstücksangebot gestaltete sich recht dürftig.
• Jacqueline (8/5): Ocean view GH - Fraîchement arrivés au Sri Lanka. Nous sommes restés 2 jours au Ocean view guesthouse. Hotel bien placé. Chambres un peu bruyante la journée vu la rue proche.Accueil sympathique. Petit déjeuné correct. Nous avons pu organisé notre départ pour Polonarua en taxi depuis là.(13000 Rs pour une petite voiture)
• CALEI F (8/5): FIRST VISIT TO SRI LANKA - convenient airport pickup.. helpful staff.. quiet + secure.. only problem was the MOSQUITOS due to no screens on windows + open area in bathroom near ceiling..
• Franz Xaver (6/5): - + freundliches Personal - Umgebung
• Nicholas (6/5): Great service but average area - Nice-ish place, but not much around the area. Beach OK
• EB (10/5): Gute Lage, leicht zu finden - Nette Leute, gute Service. Sauber und Preiswert. Wir haben nur kurze Sri Lanka Besuch gehabt, und diese Hotel hat uns am besten gepasst.
• graziella (6/5): Vicino al mare - Tutto sommato non male.Abbiamo usato la guesthouse come base di partenza e rientro nei vari spostamenti per le escursioni che abbiamo fatto.Personale disponibilissimo ,su richiesta abbiamo fatto un cambio camera con una con condizionatore e ci è stata concessa senza difficoltà.Molto comodo per la vicinanza all aeroporto (meno di 20 minuti di macchina )servizio a pagamento dell hotel .
• chris (8/5): Nice place to begin Sri Lankan trip - Clean room, friendly staff, nice bathroom, good location. A good place to stay for your first or last few nights in Sri Lanka
• Mr D (8/5): Well positioned on the main street - Staff were very obliging and help full. Gave much help with onward travel.
• Ben (10/5): Great place, 20mins from airport - This place is ideal for airport transfers etc, it's a really pleasant place, the staff are nice, the room was very good and clean. There's a nice restaurant next door too. We only stayed 1 night and didn't explore the area much, but it seemed well located for shops and wasn't noisy during the night. c
• eric (8/5): Très bon accueil, esprit " guesthouse ".... - Bonne petite guesthouse; chambre avec balcon, ce qui est plutôt agréable. .... très bon accueil.
• Maria (6/5): Enkelt guesthouse - Vi bodde här efter vår ankomst till Negombo tidig morgon för att sova och sedan resa vidare.
• Jean Pierre (6/5): Très bien située - Hôtel de transition très bien situé, personnel courtois, bon choix.
• Ann (10/5): Great, travelling made easy - Huge, comfortable bed. Lovely bathroom with a great shower. Spotlessly clean and a TV with English channels in a great location, what else would you need. We were picked up from the airport by a lovely driver at 4am and within 30mins were in bed. We have also been able to leave some unneeded stuff to pick up in a few weeks. I would highly recommend Ocean View, it far exceeded my expectations.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Cheap hotel close to airport - only stayed half a night as had early flight---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• Verified traveler (8/5): SIISTI PAIKKA; LYHYT MATKA LENTOKENTÄLLE - Olin kahteen otteeseen yötä täällä. Ensin yläkerran huoneessa, paluumatkalla alakerrassa, koska edullisemmat huoneet olivat täysiä. Rauhallisella alueella, erittäin siisti paikka. Mukava henkilökunta. Yläkerran huoneessa (tuuletin, ei ilmastointia) oli toimiva, hyvä tv. Pikku parveke oli mukava, sai istua omassa rauhassa. Alakerran huone (ilmastoinnilla)oli oikein tilava, ei tv:tä. Yläkerran suihku vain lirutti vettä, alhaalla toimi hyvin. Alakerran huoneessa tilava terassi. Hotels.com saattaa antaa paremman tarjouksen kuin paikanpäällä.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Very nice - I only stayed overnight as I had a flight out the next morning. However, I was very pleased with the cleanliness and overall room quality. I recommended it to someone else I knew was going to be in the same area a few says later.
• Saulius (2/5): good location, but poor management - In the hotel description (and order confirmation) it was written that bathrobes are included, but when we arrived we did not get them. After informing the management about missing bathrobes, they blamed that it is not their responsibility for the description of their hotel.It is the agents of hotels.com who make the descriptions look better. They never provided any bathrobes and they never will. No other options or alternatives were made. So, if you expect to get bathrobes do not make the same mistake as we did:) Otherwise, it is a good place to stay.
• Cécile (8/5): Très bien - Très bonnes
