Hotel J Negombo

Lovely beach location. Great non buffet breakfast. Nice staff. Loved my stay here.

No complaints for the price this place is what you woupd expect, staff are lovely, food is nice and bed was comfy

Great stay for the price you pay. The food is good value for money and the rooms are spacious. The hotel had a pool and small garden area with a gate leading to the beach.

Nice sea view hotel

Staffers from the hotel, there very disrespectful to the guests,

I thiught there could of been a mini fridge in room but apart from that it was excellent all round

This place is basic. The area isn’t nice, and the hotel itself could really do with a face lift. It’s ok for one night if you’re coming from or going to the airport like we were, but the hotel next door is much nicer.

The room was bright and clean and the shower was great. I wasn't a great fan of the food but that was more personal food choice than the quality. The hotel is just off a busy street but it is quiet and feels secluded and is right on the beach.

Was nice for a night. Comfy bed, shower good breakfast

We stayed just a Iggy while transit to Nuwara Eliya. Room is clean, cosy and spacious room. Will definitely come back.

The hotel has wonderful staff to help you have a goof stay. The beach at the back of the hotel is very nice.

We stayed here for several nights at the beginning of our trip around Sri Lanka to give us some rest and to visit Colombo. The hotel is nice enough – a little rough around the edges but perfectly fine. A/C and fan in the room, hard but big bed, safe, huge shower with strong water pressure and an abundance of hot water. Only thing we didn’t like was that the room had no fridge – in the heat of Negombo, cold water was essential so not having a fridge meant we constantly had to buy cold water as and when we needed it. Luckily there is a small convenience store 1 min walk form the hotel that was selling basic drinks and snacks for a bargain price (1litred bottle of water cost about 25p). We had a room with a balcony which offered lovely views of the beach and sea. We went in September and the waves were way too big to go swimming in. Also, as soon as walked along the beach we were hassled by relentless hawkers. We ended up sitting in the hotel garden instead (padded sun loungers and free towels provided) – the hawkers would still call out to you but were not allowed to enter hotel grounds, so that offered some degree of peace. For ease, we ate at the hotel for dinner twice: limited menu with nothing too special on it, your standard mix of European staples (burgers and pizza) with one or two Sri Lankan meals. All very reasonably priced – a chicken pizza cost about £3 (just be wary of the bones!). There are a few restaurants within walking distance of the hotel along the main road,

Its atmosphere is good but they don't even provide drinking water as an amenity as it is a basic need of any traveller.

The room I got initially was filthy and after complaining they offered me a sea view room witch wasn’t bad but not worth for the money they were charging. No hot water no drinking water coffee or tea. You need to go to the reception for everything. I moved to Paradise Beach hotel which is few blocks away and I was glad I did the move. Beautiful room with sea view and the price is almost the same that I paid for Hotel J. I will never stay again at Hotel J and will never recommend anyone.

It’s was an amazing stay and the staff at the hotel were welcoming.

Close to beach, sheets had stains on them and internet did not work in the rooms had to go to lobby for it to work

Stopped with friend for 3 days as a break from India

Perfect hotel. Nice room and friendly staffs one of my favorite hotel. Will come back

A clean and basic hotel but offers great value . Right on the edge of the sea. Plenty of nice restaurants nearby
