    I recently stayed at Nawathana for a few days and had a wonderful experience. The staff was excellent and made sure I had a trouble-free stay. The welcome drink was a pleasant surprise, especially after walking around in the hot sun. The location was convenient and the WiFi, hot shower, and comfortable bed were all great perks. The nearby Dutchman Street restaurant had amazing food, and the breakfast at the hotel was lovely.

    Despite a few minor drawbacks like limited food options, I would still be happy to recommend this hotel.

    I had a pleasant surprise during my stay at Nawathana. The hotel manager, Mr.Nihal, was incredibly helpful and made sure that my needs were taken care of. The rooms were comfortable and clean, equipped with AC and Satellite TV. The location of the hotel was perfect, with shops and markets within walking distance. I enjoyed eating my breakfast on the terrace overlooking the beach, and the continental breakfast provided was delicious. The staff were friendly and made my stay very enjoyable. I would be happy to stay at Nawathana again if I return to the area.

    The rooms were clean, with a nice big bed. Easy to find from the beach front bus stand. Quiet beach front location. Very helpful staff. the local knowledge of the staff is impressive, they can give information on cheaper transportation options like the 357 bus to Nadana Tea Factory.

    Felt like at home, nothing to complain about.

    I recently stayed at a hotel near the ocean that was a hidden gem. With only 7 rooms, it offered the perfect amount of privacy for a peaceful getaway. The owner was incredibly helpful and went out of their way to ensure a pleasant stay. The hotel had a small but refreshing pool, and the location was charming, with easy access to the ocean. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and I appreciated having the option to request AC and a fridge. The breakfast, served right on the beachfront, was absolutely amazing. the hotel provided great value for money, with attention to detail and friendly staff.

    All aspects of my stay in this hotel were satisfactory.

    This hotel exceeded our expectations! The location by the beach and near the bus station in the business part of town is perfect. The staff was attentive and had a good sense of humor. Our room with AC and terrace was clean and comfortable! Plus, the spicey Sri Lankan omelette breakfast was delicious.

    No negative aspects to mention, everything was great!

    Beautiful Location, Good Food. the view of the ocean from the hotel was mesmerizing, and the food was enjoyable. the room was clean, and the bed was comfortable. the hotel staff were tactful to offer a welcome drink and were courteous and helpful.

    Smoking at the restaurant, Disappointing beach. It was not tolerable to have smokers at the hotel's restaurant, and it ruined our dinner experience.

    We were pleasantly surprised by our stay at this hotel. Its location near the bus station in the business part of the city made it convenient for us to explore, but what truly stole our hearts was its proximity to the beach. The hotel is literally right at the beach, allowing us to enjoy the stunning views and relax to the sound of the ocean. The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, always going above and beyond to ensure our needs were met. The rooms, equipped with AC and a terrace, were clean and comfortable, providing us with a cozy and enjoyable stay. And let's not forget about the breakfast - we couldn't resist the spicey Sri Lankan omelette that added a flavorful start to our mornings.

    All was fantastic and there's hardly anything that could be improved.

    This hotel has a great location close to the beach, with some rooms having a lovely beach outlook. The rooms are clean and spacious, with comfortable big beds. The staff are generally helpful, offering local knowledge and advice on getting around. The restaurant serves a good breakfast, with both continental and English options to choose from.

    Some guests have noted that the menu could be better organized and there could be more amenities provided in the rooms, such as mosquito nets and shower gel.

    I had a wonderful time staying at this hotel. The staff was extremely helpful and always had a smile on their face. The location is great, just a few steps away from the beautiful beach and close to tourist places. The room was very clean and comfortable with a fridge and a comfortable bed. The hotel restaurant and the ones close by offered delicious meals all day.

    Couldn't stay longer.
