Goldi Sands Hotel

Negombo|0.64km from Chamila Tours - Private Driver Sri Lanka
This was my third stay at the Goldi Sands, honestly, the last time was nearly 20 years ago but I had such a great time back then I had high expectations. In the intervening 20 years, the hotel has had a revamp, double the size, double the number of swimming pools, added an elevator and they've removed the beach-fronted bungalows. All of which I think was a smart move and well worth doing. What has changed is the service and the catering. The staff are of course all very polite just that they didn't go the extra mile like they used to. We arrived late as our flight had been delayed, all I wanted was a couple of bottles of beer, they did arrive but I almost had to beg. I booked a taxi to the airport with the front desk, but they forgot, the waitresses at dinner were all about the hard upsell rather than serving. The breakfast as far as my memory serves me used to be awesome, today's breakfast is the same every day and lacks imagination, is poorly presented, and includes the worst coffee ever. The hotel has a confusing number of tariffs from all-inclusive to room only which means if you want to buy a drink it takes forever as they have to check your ”status” and then if you pay cash they have to go to the cashier as they carry no float. The rooms are a good size, clean and comfortable but basic. All in all it is still a good hotel to choose but sadly it is no longer in the memorable category.

Hotel Sico
4.1/512 Reviews
Good Hotel, I was Impressed with the first impression, Rooms are Cozy and comfy. Lots of ants in the bathroom. Not an issue when I understand its nature and Hotel team attended rightaway and solve the issues. At my checkout, I paid everything. Settled my bills, asked them to store my luggages for 2 hours, as I wanted to do sightseeing and lunch before heading to flight. We stopped by reception twice, once we were waiting for the vehicle we simply asked for a glass of water, even the staffs reconfirmed if we want a glass or bottle.. we clearly mentioned that we need a glass of water. They brought us a bottle of water, which is very nice, excellent and we loved it. After checkout we went out, due to traffic we came back to Hotel in rush, worrying that a minute wasted might miss our flight. It ruined my whole impression with the hotel when the staff member came running behind me mentioning I have a billed to settle, I asked her what is the item to pay since I have settled all my Bill's. She had no clue, started calling her colleagues, while I kept saying I might miss my flight. Make it hurry, at the end because of the hotel service I wasted my time to pay for a bottle of water which is misunderstandings or the hotel, served us a bottle when we asked for a glass, fine if they charge for a glass. Not a problem to pay but the charges should be presented and asked to pay rightaway when they know that we are checkout and ready to go. Just running behind me for payment of a water bottle, irritated me alot and changed my whole impression of the stay. Nice hotel, if you want good comments and to be popular in the city with the tourists. Need to train the team of what service is. Its definitely not the Receptionist fault. Management should train them, be available to make decisions when it's related to customers experience. Or empower the Receptionist in decision making. I have no problem paying for a bottle of water when I have paid alot more for my accommodation and food there.. but last impression was spoiled from their own mistake.
Jetwing Blue
3.8/569 Reviews
The hotel is located on a seaside street in negambo, surrounded by hotels, restaurants, bars, shops. It's more convenient to go to the airport. Generally, the first stop is here. Jetwing Group has five-star hotels in all scenic spots. The styles are quite different, but they are all good. Breakfast is local + western food, there is always something to eat. The evening buffet was also good. You can choose one floor, and the balcony is the sea. Recommended accommodation, I basically stay here every first night.
Hotel Shanelo
4.4/55 Reviews
This hotel exceeded our expectations in the best way possible. It was clean, cosy, the staff was very friendly and helpful regarding all our needs, and the place is, like, 3 minutes to the beach. What I would really like to highlight was the cooking. Breakfast was amazing!
WindMill Beach Villa and Hotel
3.9/50 Reviews

Villa Kapuru
4.6/566 Reviews
The owners are just the most adorable. I was a solo female traveller and they looked after me like parents. So sweet. Small but clean rooms. Loved the art decor. Bright and cheery. Cosy. Small swimming pool. Loved the pets too. Nice set breakfast, freshly cooked and served to you. Really short and simple straight walk to the beach, restaurants and bars. I went on a boat cruise one evening and the owners checked to see that the company was legitimate. On two separate evenings, they reserved me lovely tables at restaurants and made sure I had good service. They got up early when I left to help with my luggage and to see me off. Support small businesses. Absolutely lovely.
Leighton Resort
4/55 Reviews
We arrived to this hotel for our last day of our trip, after seeing very nice pictures of him ,and in addition the airport shuttle and breakfast included in the price. It was a little expensive but we assumed it was worth it and since it is the last day of the trip we wanted to go for sure. After a full day of bus traveling we wanted to take a shower, but there was no hot water and barely a water flow. When we told the employee at the hotel he looked surprised and wanted to try to fix it in the middle of the night, without success. In the morning when we finished the minimalist breakfast and went over to pay and check out, the managers said they were knew about this problem ,and when I asked why it was not said before entering the room I did not receive an answer. We ended up getting an embarrassing 10% discount. Anyway, a ”resort” is not. If you are looking to finish/start your vacation in good taste, I would reccommend you to look elsewhere.
