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.

Disliked: Amenities
Quite a decent place to stay, given its proximity to the airport (quick and easy access), and the pleasant, courteous staff. However, nothing stands out as exceptional enough to justify an online review score of 10. After reading the glowing reviews before my stay, they now feel, at best, exaggerated ... if not outright sarcastic.

The service provided was subpar, resulting in an extended wait of over an hour at the airport for pickup. Despite the hotel’s confirmation of the airport pickup and my provision of the time of arrival, the situation was not satisfactory.
