We stayed for 2 days following a long flight. This was absolutely perfect. Room was clean and the hotel it self was well presented. We have Sri Lankan friends who live close by and they were more than accommodating to have them join us for dinner which was brilliant. The pool is small but ample for a small hotel. We would stay again.

We had a wonderful stay at Bohemian Nest. The place is very clean, tidy, welcoming and cosy. The staff are very kind, attentive and helpful. The food at the hotel is incredible – there’s nothing more to say, it’s delicious. I’ll miss the food there; it was very well prepared and everything was so tasty. We loved the place!

We had a lovely stay at Bohemian Nest, our long haul flight landed early afternoon and we needed somewhere local to the airport to recharge for a night before heading onwards. Bohemian nest surpassed all our expectations and was 10/10. The breakfast itself deserves a special mention as it was so good, we went for traditional sri lankan style and it didn't disappoint. Thanks so much for our stay!

This is the perfect place to stay for one night before heading to the airport. It was clean, great water, pressure/hot water, great hospitality, and it was nice to have a pool. If we were staying in Negombo for another few days, I would absolutely stay here. Everything is very updated and well kept and the location is only a short TukTuk away from the water. The airport was about a 15 min drive.
