Based on 76 reviewsVerified Muy mal JeyanathanVerified Muy bien ☺ Vue magnifique de la terrasse . Hotel sur la plage très bien ventilé ☹ Parfois tapage nocturne par des locaux alcoolisés ThereseVerified Muy bien ☺ Emplacement en bord de mer, terrasse avec superbe vue, bien situé près des restaurants ☹ Parfois bruyant quand il y a des fêtards alcoolisés dans la chambre voisine… ThereseVerified Muy bien ☺ The location was amazing you could just walk out on the beach where there were a lot of restaurants and cafes. The staff was really nice and I met some amazing people there. ☹ The room doesn't really have windows, just mosquito nets in the windows. Therefore it was hard to get to sleep because at first there was some party going on, organized as some company summer party in the breakfast area of the hotel and then there were really loud dogs barking at night :( AntoniaVerified Merveilleux ! ☺ La proximité de la plage. DurelVerified Calm and quite place near to anything ☺ The location is on the beach ☹ Coz it’s on the beach WaqarVerified Bien GabrielVerified Excepcional NinonVerified Muy bien ☺ Location Facilities ChameeraVerified Stayed one night, spent the afternoon on the beach, hot shower then found a great family run restaurant across the road. ☺ Great location off the main road and with direct access on to the beach. Sea views from our bedroom ☹ Looks like they are starting a refurbishment Jane

Based on 265 reviewsVerified Silver sands There are not many facilities and the bathrooms are very dirty. But the surroundings are attractive and the environment is cool. There are mosquitoes and you can get a room at any time you want.......................................... DineshaVerified Awful Sadly the hotel is very run down. Much of the online information is misleading: there is no pool despite one result showing a pool; there is no restaurant (the building is there but food no longer served); sometimes rooms are let out by the hour to young couples; other rooms are let to people who takeover the hotel and treat it as though it were a private house that they had rented - they use kitchen, often leaving it extremely dirty, they take over the restaurant tables; drape their laundry over chairs in the garden and are generally noisy and obtrusive. Standards are now extremely low. The only saving grace is the very helpful staff member who does most of the work from Reception to cleaning. Not somewhere I could ever recommend. Passport41480559342Verified Terrible place This is a haunted , old and abandoned place. Disturbances- mosquitoes, very poor facilities. Terrible bathroom. Never go this place. The place is already ruined. Though it is closer to the beach this is not a place which is value for your money. Only one caretaker is there just to open the door. Irosha NVerified silver sands hotel We stayed in Negombo for four nights, longer than we had anticipated, but we thought it sensible to get nearer to the airport due to COVID lockdown. The hotel is on the beach, and is peaceful apart from the densely populated crow family. This must have been a beautiful hotel in its heyday but the building is in need of updating. We stayed in room one, with a ceiling fan which was adequate. Two single divans pushed together with a mosquito net which was comfy enough. The gardens of this property are tended by a full time gardener and are a delight. There is also a friendly resident dog whom we called Dotty who kept us company, but was not a nuisance. We have been well cared by three male staff and by the female cook who have provided us with meals and drinks during this period of lockdown which we are eternally grateful. carolineVerified Parfait avant retour... Proche aéroport de Colombo, chambre propre, bonne restauration, juste à côté de la plage. Service et personnel agréable. Nous avons passé un agréable moment avant notre retour vers la France. Merci à toute l’équipe... 🙏 Coco06NiceVerified We hier niet geslapen, maar wel de lunch gebruikt. We hier niet geslapen, maar wel de lunch gebruikt. Dit omdat we hier uitzicht op zee hadden. De gerechten waren eenvoudig en redelijk. De bediening was er vriendelijk. De accommodatie zag er schoon uit.. APKVerified Silver sands hotel negombo sri lanka A charming family-run hotel right on the beach.Beautiful views from most balconies,comfortable rooms,some with air con, tasty food, good service, airport pick up.Excellent central location and well placed to start Island tours. Experienced driver and tour guide Terry is most helpful and well-informed. Hotel and driving prices are very affordable and excellent value. I have been staying in this hotel since 2002 whenever I visit Srilanka and highly recommend it. Contact the hotel directly for bookings via their website. Anji Sharmila (from England U.K.) Anji Sharmila GovanVerified Great place to overnight Really enjoyed staying here after flying in late at night. breakfast is in a nice setting over looking the beach. Place is clean and well managed. Rooms are comfortable with air conditioning and fan. Free wifi in reception. Richard WVerified Die goldenen Jahre sind vorbei... Das Hotel Silver Sands hat sicherlich bessere Tage gesehen, die in der Umgebung neu errichteten Unterkünfte wirken attraktiver. Hinsichtlich der Sauberkeit, des Engagements der Mitarbeiter, der Qualität des Abendessens und der Lage verdient das Haus eine sehr gute Bewertung, allerdings ist die Ausstattung und der Erhaltungszustand des Hauses stellenweise nicht mehr zeitgemäß. Für einen oder zwei Tage ist die Unterkunft geeignet, einen Badeurlaub für mehrere Wochen würde ich hier nicht verbringen. MGerthVerified Price / quality is excellent as well as the service and location - close to airport I use this hotel as the standard hotel to go to from the airport or the other way around, just before returning home after my visit to Sri Lanka. The location is superb, a little bit away from the main road and located on the beach. The staff is great, very friendly. Food is good, however, the menu is limited. They have rooms with and without A/C. Wifi only in the lobby and nearby rooms. Hans H

Ok the hostel is cheap but this is not a good hostel. The chamber is not clean, the bed scratch, we didn’t had a bed sheet large enough for us. The room is open everywhere so insect can come in and you can ear almost anything of outside noise. alex3600Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a fantastic stay at this hotel in Negombo! The rooms were clean, spacious, and very comfortable, with everything we needed for a relaxing visit. The location was perfect — close to the beach, restaurants, and shops. The staff were warm, helpful, and always ready to assist with anything we needed. Breakfast was delicious with a good variety, and the overall atmosphere was calm and welcoming. A wonderful place to stay in Negombo — great value, excellent service, and very relaxing. We would definitely return on our next visit to Sri Lanka! 🌴✨ Julis catistaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very good location and service! Some rooms are still under renovation but the other half of the hotel is very nice urve künsarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This hotel is located right next to the beach, which was very convenient, especially with the direct access that only took a couple of minutes to reach. The room we booked was listed a sea-view room, but the view was mostly blocked by coconut trees, so it wasn’t the open ocean view we expected. We traveled as a group of 5 adults and 3 children under 6. One of the rooms booked did not have air conditioning upon arrival, so it’s better to double-check the A/C option before heading to the property. The hotel itself feels a little run down and past its prime, but we did notice that maintenance work has already started. During the day, there was some construction noise, but in the room we stayed in, it wasn’t disturbing—probably because it was located further away from the work area. Rooms and bathrooms were clean, and the beds and sheets were decent—nothing fancy, but comfortable enough for a short stay. Considering the price, it was still good value overall. Yasara De Silva
