Hotels near Muthurajawela Visitor Centre

"Overall a bad experience. There are far better hotels/stays for just a few more quids: Room condition: Degraded, dirty and with questionable stains everywhere and we witnessed ants moving pieces of food from under the bed (see photos). Cupboard couldn’t close properly and pops open midnight. Windows had strong watermarks so you can’t really enjoy the view. Service: The manager look-a-like gives zero respect to customers, abruptly stopping people mid sentence to say whatever he needs to say. The staff is very cheeky, asking for more tips rudely (literally said “this is little money, more?”) even though we already tipped well above standards. Location: It locates right below the landing path of airplanes so you wouldn’t be able to catch a good night sleep here. It looks like it’s near the airport, but in reality it will take you 40mins to get to the airport, as it locates right in the middle of the strip with no bridge to cut across to the airport. Overall, it’s an utter waste of a could-be-lovely seaside cottage."

"The hotel stay was disappointing because the actual rooms and facilities did not match the photos shown on the website. The pictures made the place look much better than it really is. However, the staff were polite and helpful during the stay. Overall, the service was okay, but the hotel should update the photos on the site to reflect the real condition."

"We wanted a place to unwind after a long day's travel, and Nico's was perfect. Possibly our favourite pool ever, with infinity views over the lagoon and birdlife. Local area is safe and friendly, but not touristy at all. Lovely staff, great food (not quick, but worth the wait). Brilliant start to our holiday, my wife already wants to go back."

"Dated resort"

"Perfect. A hidden gem in Negombo 25 easy minutes from the Colombo International Airport. The room was spotless and spacious. The pool was sparkling clean, relaxing and warm with plenty of exotic birds including parrots flying around. The food choices were numerous and tasty. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our every need including laundry services for a nominal fee and airport transfer arrangements. If you’re looking for somewhere to get over jet lag or to wind down after touring the country - this is the perfect spot. "

"Staff were so lovely and helpful. Rooms were basis but clean. Pool was lovely and the location great."

"It was a building site. Yellow swimming pool and mosquito filled swamp. We arrived, took one look and left. Not even sure if it was open."
