The 10 best Specialty lodgings in Negombo, Sri Lanka

May 8, 2023 Roger Rusk

With a wide sandy beach, big hotels, and handy proximity to Colombo, Negombo is one of Sri Lanka’s most popular resorts. Beyond its sands lies an interesting mix: a colonial-built canal and crumbled fort; a lively fish market, traditional fishing communities, and a wildlife-rich lagoon.

I had a wonderful experience at Amora Garden. Went with my friends for a day outing on 21st May 22. And they were very kind-hearted and they were pleased to give us a complimentary room even though they practice to accommodate 15 numbers and above. They let us check in as soon as we arrived. We didn't have to wait. That was awesome. The girls who checked in us were really nice. And the room was lovely, super clean with the most comfortable 2 beds. And the buffet was very delicious even the desserts. We really enjoyed ourselves there and Special thanks to Rukshan,Isuru and Chamindu They were really helpful. Thank you! I will recommend it to my other friends. Hope to visit again.

Exceptional staff so polite and helpful. We arrived during a curfew due to protests. The staff offered great advice and assistance which made our 2 day stay perfect. Close to airport, fish market and beach, breakfast lovely. Highly recommend this hotel. What a perfect start to our month long Tuk Tuk tour of this wonderful Island. Thank you.

Excellent Hotel, Excellent People

Reviewed By AnkurS338

The only hotel in SriLanka where we were greeted with a welcome drink. Lovely couple who run it, the location is excellent, on the main strip with restaurants. The rooms are modern and have everything you need. For the price it is exceptional value for money. I was overcharged at the Wine Shop but the owner works there and when I told him about the incident he gave me the extra money back. I did not want to take it but he would not budge. Amazing guy. If in Negombo, I will definitely stay here again. Airport is I think around 15-20 mins and he can arrange a tukk tuk for 800 rupees.

If you only have to stay over night it is the best value for money! Basic room but clean, air conditioner, fair breakfast! Not recommended for longer stay, neighborhood seemed a bit too much for me. Maybe I am spoiled ?

3R Resort

We are established under a strong company and located in the heart of tourists area in Negombo where you can have the breakfast or relax in the swimming pool with over look to direct facing Dutch canal and with less than 25 meters walking distance to the beach. Our restaurant takes place with a touch of Italian taste in Surf & Turf dishes. All room and Bath amenities connect with a 4* class hotel

Super cozy place to stay!

Reviewed By IlzeCaune

Great location near main street, close to bars and shops. Walking distance to sea. Nice swimming pool and breakfast in the garden was unforgettable! Our room was huge size, very clean and good equiped. Very responsive and friendly staff. Special thanks to host. He helped us in any question. He gave an advise where we could get the best currency rate in the city. He arranged tuk-tuks and airport transfer for reasonable price. This is very safe place for staying, brand new building and wonderful staff. We highly recommend 3R resort not only for one night, here you can enjoy longer staying as well.

Made to feel like family

Reviewed By DaveandPaula

We chose this hotel as it was within easy reach of Colombo airport (about 25 minutes). We arranged with the hotel for a car to pick us up and our driver was extremely helpful. We actually booked the day before as well so we could go straight to our room. When we arrived (6.30am and very tired!), we were quickly shown to our room and made very welcome. During our 3 weeks stay we got to know the staff very well and they really went out of their way to make us feel at home. The pool, at times, was a little cloudy, but they made every effort to keep it clean. Our room was spotlessly clean and the bed was comfortable. Attached to our room was a kitchen area with a fridge and sink. A kettle was provided. The local town area is a short walk up a little road. Be aware though when it rains the road does flood (not the hotel's fault!). Lots of really good restaurants. A short tuk tul ride to Negombo Town centre and the local market is well worth it. Market day on Sunday. But I think the main thing was how amazing the owners and staff were. They couldn't do enough for us, always had a smile and always had time to talk to us. All in all this little hotel was a perfect way to chill out after a long flight. Thank you all, I promise we will be back. PS if you get a chance, talk to Pri (the owner) about nutrition, he is extremely knowledgeable and has written books on the subject.

Free drop off at airport

Reviewed By simonefr80

Good location... 5 min walk to the beach, in a very quiet area.   The transfer to the airport is included. The bed wasn't confortable... it was shorther than usual. My husband is 1,86m tall and had to sleep diagonal on the bed, so his feet could fit on the bed. Breakfast was much smaller amount when compared with other places we stayed in Sri Lanka.  On our last day, we asked to have our breakfast at 08:00, but they said they could not do it as they were going to the church, so it was arranged for 09:00. For our surprise, another guest was finishing her breakfast when I showed up there at 08:20 (because I heard the owner voice). He left 10 seconds after I my arrivel (without saying anything) and so we had our breakfast at 09:00, but we left with no idea why the other guest managed to have her breakfast at 08:00.
