We paid for a sea view room @ 2400 rupees just to spend the night after an early afternoon flight in. Room was clean, staff were friendly and the food was ok. Would stay again just for the balcony overlooking the sea. Chilled.

Highly recommend this place after a long flight to Negombo. We were going to stay one night, we stayed three. Right on the beach, air con and hot water, mosquito net with no holes and it was suspended at the sides so it didn't rest on your body (found out later in our trip how important this is!), wonderful service,...

We stayed at Silversands after touring Sri Lanka for 18 days and were pleasantly surprised about the cleanliness of the room and the very comfortable bed with a mosquito net that was well suspended and, for once, did not rest on our feet and head. Our room cost 2600Rp and the staff was not in the mood for negotiating when... More

We had the 4200 Rupees room on the top floor.It was very large with a sea view albeit between two of the hotel blocks. The food was excellent with breakfast outside in the garden before the day got... More

The guest house is a joy to stay at, the staff plesantand very helpfull, the rooms basic but clean with lovely mosquito nets. The restaurant food was also good and cheap. Silver sands is in the beach area... More

The guys there were not tht friendly and the rooms were rather shabby with dirty beds and stained pillows where we even found a dead roach!! At the dinner time, we found the tablecloth was sticky and flecked. Then we waited almost 40mins for the drinks and the meal. That's really not a worthy place.

We got one of the bigger rooms upstairs with a balcony for about $33/night, with a/c. The view and balcony area was darling, but the room was fairly plain, and the beds are a little stiff, but adequate. Our shower leaked from underneath its pedastal, leaving a constant puddle whenever you stepped foot in the bathroom. When we checked out,... More

After long flight we came to Negombo and stayed in this hotel because of good references. We took the cheapes available room for 2 300 RS (little bit dark room, without any view). Room was clean, big enough for 2 nights stay and there was no noise. Good for our purpose - sleeping and relaxation after flight to Srí Lanka.... More
