We booked here after reading the reviews on TripAdvisor. We stayed for 3 nights and found the accommodation was fine apart from the mosquitoes in our room. We think these were getting in through a gap around the en suite window and as a result we didn't sleep well the first night. We made sure we bought a can of... More

I booked this via a phone call and email after reading the reviews on this site. I arrived in the morning directly from the airport with my 2 sons and spent 2 nights. There was no problem with our early arrival. We took the family room and paid 7300 rps which included aircon and breakfast. It turns out that was... More

We arrived in Negombo in April this year to find that the hotel we had booked on the beach was much less than acceptable . With the advice of a local Tuc tuc driver we ended up at Suriya Arana --what an amazing experience!! Judith and Sam and their charming 11 year old son welcomed us warmly to their lovely... More

We booked Suriya Arana guesthouse in advance and were met at the airport by Judith whom we found to be very warm and friendly. Our room was spotless, very large, airy and comfortable.

But it turned out that the owner had gotten a better offer... More

We arrived early morning at suriya arana, negombo. Our room was not yet available, but it would at 12. This is of course normal, so we decided to have a breakfast. Returning around noon we were told that we should find something else, without explanation and help to find something else. And if we could please pay the breakfast. Is... More

The place is perfect for your first night right after arrival to Negombo. The place will make you relaxed after a long flight. The hospitality of owners is something to mention as well! More
